Welcome to Champloo Ikou Era, a gmae based on the anime/manga Samurai champloo. This will be a guide for the new players to follow when they enter the .
First off this is RP, you watch the world as your ,Character not a player, this means when you speak, full words, no net-chat so no walking up to someone "Hi wat u up to?" thats not allowed you have to say "Hello What're you doing?" something or other.
The battles are Also RP, welcome to the world of battle.. Now there are a few rules in which you can't do. For starters let the person react to your attack, ok not an Hour long RP maybe thirty seconds to, Two minutes?
-God Mod- This is making your character Over powered in the fights, being too strong, a Stab to the face not killing you, Or, When you RP and you hit the enemy all the time. This is Godmod.
"*Sariki, drawing her blade, runs at the gathered Ronin, her blade extended to the glinting light, the swinging her sword straight through the left ones stomach called Loki, her feet twisting the blade slitting the throat of Kari, the right Ronin. Then the two left, impaled like a stick as the Katana stretched through their stomachs.*"
Now, thats an OK rp, but too godmod, hope you get it.
Next is Metagaming, Now this is a HUGE problem, as it presents to constant Bans, Boots and Warnings as Metagaming is using OOC information IN character, making RP difficult, like for example saying over OOC "Heyyy, i finally got "-Move-"" then someone walks up to them IC "Use it on me!!! GO ON!" thats Metagaming however that would of been IC in OOC i guess for that person XD.
Now, IC in OOC sorta like metagaming in a way i guess. Anywho this is using In Character Information and posting it on the OOC channel so anyone could find you or whatever, this is illegal and against the rules, try to refrain from it.
Death, Yeah you die, you stay dead, no respawning, no Afterlife, Death. However Since its RP people can't go around killing for no Reason, so you should be safe.
Now there are rules to death aswell, since theres a chance when you kill someone they can survive but it depends on a whole system thats soon gonna be shown. This is how it works.
Its a gamble, a 1/6 chance, a dice. It will be rolled guess the number.
Well, to have a bit of luck, since theirs no Afterlife, when your about to die your given a selection of numbers, guess the right one, your alive still, guess the wrong one, death, however if your one off the number then you'll get all your Stat Points if you remake.
Now. ON DEATH
No Godmod, for example i don't care if they're knocked out, you still can't kill them with a single RP of stab, you have to attempt to stab them, incase a bystander interferes and gets them outta the way, or they regain conciousness, and slide outta the way. So don't get sloppy. You can't Godmod a kill.
Also, person who's dying don't make it hard for the others, by Godmodding aswell, like pretending that you can't die from a simple stab, yes yes you can. Since the medical equipment in those times was insuffice to heal the stab wounds.
