BoD: Beyond Sanctorum

[lolosky]

I present thee: THE RPG RULES OF DARKNES

Members of the Brotherhood of Doom, it is the time for our rising and the tolls of celebration. Using my dark knowledge of hidden arcanes, i have started a new design of RP system that will start appliance in the party, thinking of a successful way of implementing the so known RP and RPB systems present here in TFF for our particular interest and to show these puny members that our presence here is definitive.

It's meant for us, and only for us to use and develop, i will burn the hands and souls of those who try to copycat it, nonetheless apply it, outside the BoD without the agreement of one of the leaders. So i will instruct in this new system design:

1. The settings of each RP will be posted in the OOC forum, not the club thread nor in the first post of the RP.
2. The RPs are made in an specific timeline, and there can only be one BoD's RP at a time, that said, if your status ascended during the mid of an RP, you're still treated with the status you had by the time it started.
3. The landscape is designed and mapped inside the OOC thread, the need of a good description of the landscape is completely necessary as long as the functions to be performed there
4. You can't take possession of the other characters in the RP; it's mainly allowed in the Rps but for this to prosper i must forbid it. Only small quotations are allowed. I.E.: Dissaor greeted to his fellow brethren and they replied with a distinguished bow. You can't talk, speak, think, or express major actions of other characters, unless they're NPC.
5. NPCs are allowed but in a small frame and leveled by rank (ranking will be detailed later)
6. Interaction to the environment as with the people there is extremely needed, you must perform at least one of the two in each post.
7. You can't exceed actions that go over the rank you posses(ranking will be detailed later)
8. It's a matter of obligation to use your BoD name, that is something asked for you as you joined the brotherhood and is the name we will refer to in the RP (only Stream gets to be called Stream and Beelzebub alone has the right to call me Agent Lolosky, no one else)
9. You can use any form of posting description in the RPs, either third person(my favorite one), first person, l337, or whatever you want (we're supposed to have fun, not create the fourth reich, so I'm not pwning your way of participating in this)

Ok, now only a couple of explanations

1. Ranks: As in the club, we will be separated by ranks in the RPs, therefor the difference will be clear to the levels of the members of the club, also, ToroMor as the main leader is the stronger of all, so the level of Dark Christ goes over the Dark Ruler level(sorry Beelzebub, but he's at the top of us); Beelzebub and myself share the same level of power and the high Lords are over the Dark Apprentices. These must be specified in the different fields, we're using for each RP
   
2. Entities: Entities are distinguishable things that are described and used in the RP. Typical entities would be: items, NPCs, animals, magic spells and the like. These are divided into nameless and named entities.
   1. Nameless: Everything that does not have a dedicated, unique name. Nameless entities can be used without restrictions as long as the other rules are not touched.
      Examples: “a cask of beer” (item), “a pale redhead virgin” (NPC), “ten goats” (animal), “a dark lightning” (effect/spell)
      
   2. Named: Everything with a dedicated name. Named entities are divided into objects and NPCs.
      • Named objects: these are all things that cannot or will not act on their own and are “mindless”. Like dead things and most of the animals. Named objects should be introduced, well described and constantly recur in the RP. Once introduced, they stick to the PC who invented them and cannot be used by others.
        
      • Named NPCs: these are all beings that act on their own. Animals could be used this way if they are given something like “personality” or if they possess unnatural intelligence. The same rules apply as for named objects, with the addition that they may leave a scenery only if it is “played out”, which means reasonable and in RP manner.
        Examples: “Mjöllnir, the hammer of Thor” (item), “Elisabeth Bathory” (NPC), “Sleipnir, horse of Odin” (animal), “Sphere of Annihilation” (effect/spell)

So, I hope you like what I've done so far; the first RPG to be disposed will the dark party and it will be up ASAP, i'm just finishing a couple of details on the design field.

Dissaor, Ambassador of the Unholy, main dark RPG designer

P.S. Skai if you have any problem with the over stated rules, PM me and I'll se what i can do. After all they only will apply to the club RP threads
