Grand Theft Star Destroyer RULES
General Rules:
1) Obey the official RP Nation Guidelines: INFO - RpNation's Site Rules (Revised) | RpNation.com - Best Roleplay Forum
2) Lexielai is GOD. My word is final, and I may introduce or change rules as the RP progresses. Further, it is to the my discretion as to whether any character sheet is accepted or denied.
3) Up to a maximum of one character per player!
4) No One Liners! You must write at least 5 FULL sentences per post. If there's a lot of detail then describe it, don’t just write a bland statement because you’re lazy. If you have no inspiration, ask your fellow players for help! Collaborative posts are encouraged.
5) Keep posts in relative sections (Only keep OUT-OF-CHARACTER chatter in the OOC thread, leave only your CHARACTER’S text in the roleplay thread).
6) To make your writing clear, stick to the Third-Person Limited perspective unless the context calls for something different (Such as dialogue).
7) Have a good grasp of the English language. If your posts are consistently short and incoherent (many misspellings or grammatical errors), you may not be someone we’d like to roleplay with.
8) Be COMMITTED to roleplaying and improving. If you are a person who doesn’t add any detail and writes bland posts, then unless you’re willing to visibly improve you may also not be someone we’d like to play with.
9) If you're absent for a week then I'll assume you dropped. Please let Lexielai know if you'll be gone longer and want to rejoin.
10) Respect fellow roleplayers. Do NOT harass or bully them, we have a ZERO TOLERANCE policy on that. If there's a problem with your writing or your behavior, you will be contacted.
11) If you have a conflict or problem with someone, resolve it between you and the other party privately. If that isn't possible, contact a moderator.
12) Additionally if you have any issues or questions with character signups, writing, or whatever, contact a moderator or ask your fellow players for support. Also reference existing resources and rules when you can.
13) Have Fun!
1) Romance with another player’s character is fine as long as the other party agrees. You may conduct romance between your own characters at your will.
2) You may not write explicit sexual scenes, or pretty much anything that’s past first base. However, innuendo and fade-to-black scenes are a-ok.
3) Profanity, gore, and more is at your discretion; write as much as you want in as much detail as you want. Moderate yourself however you wish, but remember that not everyone likes excessive violence and may choose to not interact with your character if you depict highly graphic visuals.
4) No Bunnying, Godmodding, Mary Sues/Gary Stues (Flawless or perfect characters that lack definite weaknesses)
5) Do not be unreasonable. Use common sense when writing. However, don't be obnoxious and power your character to ridiculous or godly heights; that's neither fun to play nor fun to play with.
6) Stick to the general lore and knowledge of Star Wars— that means no Republic, large Jedi populations, etc. (If you really want to break or add to the lore, ask Lexielai beforehand). If it doesn't conflict, feel free to be creative with your character's background.
7) If you read all the above rules, UNDERLINE your character's full name under "Profile" once.
Challenges
At some point during the roleplay, your characters will encounter events known as CHALLENGES. These are intensive moments that stretch your character's skills to the limit. I will be creating and providing challenges based on what YOU decide to do in the roleplay; in other words, you'll receive skill challenges personalized for you based on your decisions.
Each CHALLENGE will consist of several stages. I will be asking you to roll a dice through RPNation's in-built dice system for each stage of the challenge. Depending on what the challenge is for, your SPECIALIZATION (Which you may view in the character sheet) may or may not provide you a bonus.
You will roll ONE six-sided die during each stage. The number of stages is arbitrary and depends on the nature of the task you're completing. I will not be providing you with the minimum number you need to achieve to succeed in each stage of the challenge, nor how many stages you must succeed in to beat the challenge. However, I will be breaking down all the exact information after the challenge upon request.
Each SPECIALIZATION provides a +1 bonus to its respective CHALLENGE type. When you're using a six-sided die, that +1 bonus can make a MASSIVE difference, so make sure you get your specialists to tackle challenges well suited for them!
This is a new system that I've never tried before, so I'll be improvising and making new things up as I go along. Please be patient, and trust me: it'll be fun!
One more thing. Roll dice in your IC posts: To ensure fair play, I must require that all participants who decide to roll dice must do so inside their IC posts so that I and your fellow players can see proof of the dice roll. We will not accept your word. It's not that we don't trust you, we just want to make things fair.
Just know that I CAN check your dice roll history any time I want, and if I see you blatantly cheating on your CHALLENGE rolls I WILL expel you from the roleplay. Seriously!
