General Questions that are Asked

*What is the Altered Egos RP you ask.

Well its what I like to call a free RP you and fellow members will be allowed to write your own story and history.

*How can this be there are no thread signups or posted plotlines?

See this is the best part. Why would you want to tell a story if everyone knows how its going to end?? In A.E you follow a very General Plotline, From which you build upon your characters history present or even Future.


*Eh? What about other members how do they factor in?

They are your fellow actors/actresses Think of your self as a director of your own play.
And each of your characters plays a part. Say you want to have a love triangle between a vampire a werewolf and a human. First write A thread setting up the General backstory. You can manipulate Non members around you until you get people to join.


Example:

[Jack] A strange horney lady {open}


There sat Jack, in the pub drinking his past away. As he sipped on his drink his mid began to wonder back to the time he sat in this very seat. When a lady walked up and introduced herself “hi, Im Jane.” Said the woman sweatly in Jacks ear, “Go away,” muttered Jack as he looked at her. “Whats the matter big boy don’t wanna play? She continued saying sweetly into his ear.

*How do you get people to Join?

The classified ads DUH. You post a wanted ad.

Example

[wanted] {Jacks storyline}

I need a Vampire and a werewolf for a love triangle thread Please PM me For Plot info

MSN (preferred)




*you are the author of your own story. Say you want to tell a monologue of your past. But you don’t want anyone to join in
Simply put

[Closed] in your thread title if you don’t want any outside effectors to join in on the story. Usually Plots that have been made to tell a key part of your characters story.


[Open] Means anyone can join in and effect the plotline


make sure you put your characters name in the Title as well

so it should look like this

[Jack] The haunted stairwell [closed]

Or if is a collaboration between two characters Key Parts you can put

[Jack and Jane] The wedding {Open} or {closed}

Or if making a group Key Part

[Group] The war {closed} or {open}

I have a question. What is the claim a face option about?

Well Its an option that allows for easier description of your characters. By choosing a real life face. For example you could use brad pitts image and he would be your character. He could be a mage or whatever.


I hope that answers your question

This might be really stupid question. I have not done any of this before. So, where do I begin? What can these characters do (or not)? How do I get started...that's what it really boils down to, I guess.

-puts on RP-Director Hat-
ok, first off, in the Eternal Quest RP, you need to pick a race, the races are here: The Races After selecting a Race, youll need to pick a job class to start out in, here: The Jobs. Now, after you have chosen your Race and Job, youll now create your character and then submit your Bio. Info on your bios can usually be found in the races thread, also, check this thread here for Submission rules: Submission rules And then sumbit your Bio here: Submit Your Bio Here!. After all this, wait for the Rp-director(me) or Felix, to accept it, then its RP time!

Now, for your second question, what can they do, well if we think you are out of bound on somthing, we will tell you, just follow normal site rules, and all special skills a character will have will be in the races thread. For anymore questions, ask in here, or pm me
