And here is a refresher on the character creation rules and the character sheet, so you don't have to go back to the OOC post. [hider=Character Creation Rules] [list] [*] Players are limited to two characters, both of which must have GM approval. (although they can get approval separately, however unlikely that is.) I don't expect most players to fill both character sheets, that's just how many major characters I will have. [*] The obligatory "no OP characters" rule. Characters should are either human, or something as powerful as a human. Your character should not have abilities or items they don't have a logical, realistic reason to have. [*] If you are playing as species that hasn't been previously established, explain what they are like. I don't want any species inherently better than humans, so for every way something is better than a human, they must have some downside to balance it out. [*] Building on the previous point, Playing as someone else's established species is technically allowed, just as long as you get permission from that player. [*] This is primarily a military ship we are dealing with. Non-militants are allowed (such as Fara), but they need a reason to be there. [*] I don't really want any romance with Princess Fara (she's 14 for gosh's sake), but since I'm pretty sure someone will want to romance Princess Fara, (she's a princess, of course someone is going to want her to be romantically involved) I will allow attempts to romance her, as long as whatever character is within her age range. No pedophilia. That's creepy and I don't want to deal with it. [*] Expanding upon that, you'll have to justify having such a young character on board. [*] Further expanding upon that, no childhood friendships. If you must romance her, you have to either win her over within the week she is awake or the time after she is cured. [*] If you want your character to have secrets that you want to hide from the rest of the players, PM me a complete copy of their character sheet and have the secretive version on here. Spontaneous abilities that I do not know about will be considered signs of an OP character. [*] And finally, to prove that you at least read half the rules, include in every character sheet a statement that your character has declared their allegiance (or lack thereof) with the Empire of the Third Star.
