Default Harry Potter RP {For RPG Newbies ONLY} - 11-15-2006, 06:27 PM

This RP is for RPG Newbies Only. Experienced ppl, please don't interfere.

Setting: First year. You have been sorted and it's your first day of classes. What house are you in? Are you friends or foe with Harry and his friends? What side are you on, the side of good or the side of evil?

Character Bio Outline:
Full Name:
Name or nickname they like to be called by:
House Desired (Ravenclaw, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, Gryffindor):
Gender:
Age:
Appearance:
Personality:
Class (as in Pure Blood, Half Blood, or Muggleborn):
Strengths (as in subjects and non-subjects):
Weaknesses (as in subjects and non-subjects):

Fill this out and start your RP. Try to interact with each other, it's better that way.

I will also add the following additions; firstly, tho I am not participating, I will be reading and checking over this RP to make sure that players are following the rules. They can be found here: http://www.thedollpalace.com/forum/r...rules-faq.html Read them. Secondly, I will draw your attention to the following rule, which if broken will result in you being banned from the RP:

Quote:
4. Never Godmod or make your character perfect. Godmoding is considered the worst crime ever by every RP I know, anyway. If you don't know what Godmoding is, it's controlling a character not your own. If they give you permission, then fine but don't just start doing it anyway! Also, don't make your character perfect and without faults. These characters are called Mary Sues and are despised by RPers.
Basically, anyone who either starts godmoding or who posts as a Mary Sue will first be warned, then if they don't change their post/character, they will be removed from the RP. That means, their posts will be deleted and they will be informed that they are not allowed to RP here any more. Refusal to accept this could result in a temp ban. If you don't know whether or not your character is a Mary Sue or not, then PM your form to me and I will tell you. Basic signs of a Mary Sue are as follows:

1. Good at everything, with no weaknesses. Your character must have faults, and weaknesses. You can't list their strengths as "everything"; they must be bad at something, and have a character fault, for example, a hot temper or clumsiness.

2. Girlf of a major character. This RP is set at the beginning of the first year, which means that you are all 11 years old. Therefore, you do not have boyfs. Harry Potter didn't have his first crush til 3rd year, and he didn't think of dating til 4th year.

3. Makes canon characters behave out of character. If you play the canon characters, you must make them interact with your character exactly as they would in the book; for example, Snape favouring Slytherins or Draco hating Muggles.

Finally, please don't suddenly switch the scene for no reason, and certainly not just in one post.
