Character Creation Rules

Here are all the rules for creating a character.

1. Posting. You must post your character profile as a new thread in the In/Out Box forum. If you don't do that, it cannot be properly reviewed by a moderator. If the mod finds anything that needs to be fixed in your profile, they will leave a post telling you what you need to do. Judgement is left up to the mods.

2. Acceptance. From the time the mod posts telling you to fix your profile and what you need to do, you have 1 week to do so. If you don't within that time, the profile will be deleted (however, you can appeal to the mod for a little more time if you need it due to Real Life issues. Laziness isn't an excuse).

3. Corrections. If your profile still isn't up to snuff, the mod will post again telling you what you still need to fix. There is a limit of 3 correction posts for the mod before your profile will be scrapped. Note that you get 1 week's time to correct your profile after EACH correction post.

4. Waivers. The mod can waive the 3 correction post rule if they see that you have promise and are really trying hard.

5. Romance. You may notice a conspicuous absence of 'romance' or 'sexuality' in the character template. If you choose to include this information for your character, that is your decision, and the staff won't care either way. Be aware that Equestrian Legends accepts players and characters of all persuasions, and while some degree of IC intolerance for playing purposes is fine, any inkling of OOC intolerance will get you sent to the moon.

6. Exotics. Alright, things are going to be a little complicated here. As a new member you have two options: you may choose to receive a 150 post bonus for joining and creating a character, OR you may choose to make one exotic character of any species excepting Dragons and Alicorns. After you have either accepted your posts or created that exotic character, you must purchase all subsequent exotic characters from the mall. And please remember: you don't have to make that exotic first. The free exotic slot stays with you until you use it or receive your 150 post reward.

7. Canons and OCs. Unfortunately, this game does not allow players to adopt canon characters, such as Rainbow Dash and Twilight Sparkle, because they are assumed to be dealing with major political issues elsewhere in the world. In addition, applications for well known background characters, such as Lyra and Bonbon, will be refused because we don't want to start any fights between two players hoping to play the same pony. If the background pony you wish to use has no established fanon personality, and is not well known, we will consider their application, but it will be subject to extra scrutiny. In short, we are a game for Original Characters only.

8. Signatures Once your character has been accepted and moved to the Filing Cabinet, you must make a link to the profile and put it in your signature. You need to have one link for every profile. This gives us a quick way of checking on your characters, allows people roleplaying with you to take a quick peek without having to search, and allows us to make sure that you're following all of the rules (ie, using a character when you don't have an accepted profile for it). If you don't know how to put links in your signature, simply use the following code:
Code:
 
[url=profileaddress]Charactername[/url]


9. Images. To prevent the board from stretching, please keep images at or below 500 pixels wide (any height is acceptable). If your image is larger than that, please use a thumbnail and a link to go to it. If you can't make a thumbnail yourself, www.imgur.com will automatically create one in several sizes for you to use when your image is uploaded, and will even provide BBCode with which to post the thumbnail and link.
