Angel Creek -Open Recruitment- (BDSM EX - freeform)

[Snickerz]

   Welcome to Angel Creek, Montana, this quaint little town has a 250 year old story of myth and legend, giving it a history matched by no other. It has rested peaceful since the summer of 1800 when the Marcarum family returned to resettle it. Up until recently, the town was calm, quiet. However, some disturbances have caused an unbalance within the community, something not felt by the mortal realm, as well as the changes, the disappearances, and even the deaths, that can be.
   Angel creek is set up as any town should be, allowing for people to have jobs, raise families and lead rather stable lives, but beyond the normal of the town is a hint of supernatural, a hint of the unexplained. Shady, unexplained pasts, or just sheer curiosity due to rumors that have made their way to the internet draw all sorts of people here, all sorts of creatures here. In this battle against light and dark there's no telling what a person can learn about their friends, their families, or even themselves.

Do not post as one in the same scene twenty times and then post the other once unless there is valid reason to do so.

Game Rules

All of Elliquiy's rules are in effect here. Without exceptions.

OOC

• Please respect your GMs and they will respect you. There are two GMs for this game, and only two, Kremsonbryar and Snickerz.
• Please respect your fellow players. If there is something that a player does or says that you disagree with do not cause a problem in the ooc, and do not drag it into the game. If it is an issue with how they are doing something in the game, something that a GM can assist with, please contact one of the GMs (we aren't mind readers). and we will do what we can for the situation.
• If you notice someone has broken one of the rules, bent, stretched or slightly folded them, do not take the law into your own hands, contact a GM and the situation will be delt with. Contacting a GM means by PM, Skype or Y!M it does not mean mentioning it in the ooc or dragging out the problem ic.
• Respect the game as it is set up by the GM, do not cause a scene in ooc chat. If you have a question or concern, PM your GMs.
• There will be one warning if someone causes drama. We do not want it in our game. It ruins fun for others, and if it happens, we will have to ask the person causing it to leave. If it keeps going, Elliquiy staff will be informed. We encourage our players to let the GMs know, if someone tries to stir up OOC drama.
• If there is a problem with another player, we expect that it is dealt with in a mature, drama-free way. We are all adults here, after all. We GM's are always here, we always have an open ear, but we expect people to deal with issues on their own first.
• If there is any IC drama it stays IC, do not bring it OOC. You could be asked to leave the game.

IC

• There will be no use of OOC knowledge for IC purposes, also known as Metagaming. You will be asked to change a post.
• Do not take OOC issues IC. If it is felt that you are using your character as a vehicle for abuse, you could be asked to leave the game.
• Please pay attention to what is happening in the game and use a bit of common sense. You must know and manage your characters limits and restrictions, at any time during the game a GM may give you an added bonus to help move the story along, in which case it should then be added to your profile for future knowledge.... An example of this would be if it were to make sense for your character to learn a new power (If you are a witch), or if you are playing a human character that discovers they actually have a magic blood line, then your abilities would slowly be introduced with GM help.
• No god moding
  
  "God Moding" is in essence when someone’s character has the ability to do practically anything without limits or boundaries. And example is when they simply cannot be harmed by any and all means other RP-ers try.
  
      It can be killing or injuring a character without the player's express permission.
      It can be when they simply can’t be hit and dodge all attacks or anything for this matter aimed at them.
      It can also be using other characters that other people RP with. In other words, if you do not RP as
      Legolas, then you cannot have Legolas say anything, or do anything, without the player's express permission.
  
  
  The absolute worst is when they make out another character to be what they’re not, just to make their own character seem superior. They make others seem weak, screaming for help, when they’ve made it quite clear about their advantages and strengths. This is called power-play. It’s a strain of God-Modding, but instead of just being irritating, it’s offensive to boot.
  
  This is a prime example of God Moding:
  
  Player A: Punches Player B
  Player B: Dodges attack, grabs Player A and throws him. Player A flies at Player B, who warps behind him and slashes Player A in the back.
• No Power Playing
  
  Power playing occurs in role playing, and it's when you control someone else's character, as well as your own, without the other person's permission
  Say that I play Bob, and someone else is Susie.
  
  Bob watched Susie as she started to walk away. he ran up to her, the girl of his dreams, and yelled, "SUSIE, DON"T LEAVE ME!" She turned around, and glared at him, with resentment in her eyes, before walking up to him, slapping him, and then walking away again.
  
  As you can see, if this were a post, I'd be typing Bob's actions, as well as Susie's. The fact that I'm typing Susie's actions is power playing.
  

Frequently Asked Questions & Answers

1. when selecting for character's should we keep in mind family names already given or are you looking for other family names as well?

Answer: We would prefer original family names. However, that does not mean we will not consider sharing our family names. We do not want 12 of the same family running about though, so keep in mind, these are characters in the story and as adding any character you are requested to ask permission to add them. As for Kendall, Evans, McKnight, And Marks. You must ask the GMs who created them. Kremsonbryar and Snickerz.

2. What is happening with the characters that are in the 1on1 associated with this game?

Answer: Landon McKnight and Angela Evans will become NPCs while Kremson continues to play Aiden and Terran, and Snickerz continues with Christa and Cali. So we are asking you to go ahead and make your own character, however, the 1on1 can be a good back history for some things as we are more or less continuing where it has left off. Note, it is not a requirement to join the group. So do not feel obligated to read it. If you have questions we will answer them without reverting you to that thread.

3. is the magic present in this setting -strictly- limited to witches/warlocks? Or are there other sorts of magic available/potentially available? How limited (or flexible) is the setting when it comes to magic? Are there just witches/warlocks? Or are there vampires, werewolves, wizards, dragons, unicorns, etc?

Answer: The only answer we have at this time to this question is it will vary with each situation. We value individuality, creativity, and unique nature. If you would like to do something that otherwise seems "out of the game" feel free to contact one of your GMs about it. We're open minded and we're all here to enjoy the game. We do ask with each situation however that you come to us. If we give permission for one character to be a vampire, that doesn't mean you have unlimited access, so please, be respectful of that.
