Welcome to the OOC of "Heroes Rise. This RP is a collaborative effort from the various authors who came together here - Collaboration Thread and if you take a few minutes to read through the few pages, you can contribute and get a feel for what we are expecting with this RP.

The rules are standard and teeter on flexible and immovable. I am the GM but this RP is, as stated before, a collaborative effort that has been designed to have equal parts input across it's lifespan. The few things need to be adhered to with RP are, keeping your character balanced and believable in accordance to the current plot arc. Acknowledging other's posts and ideas, building upon them where possible, but also nurturing one another to create something we all invested and comfortable with.

Any specifications on races and kingdoms?

Hi Tinker,

Nope, there are no specifications on races or kingdoms. This RP is the result of a number of people working out the story here - This Thread Explains what is expected to occur The whole point of this RP is to maximize on creativity and challenge us to work off one another's ideas in a sort of free-for-all. Predominantly however, I think Elves, Dwarves, Humans are three definite races, but we're open to anything new, as long as it is believable and makes sense in the scheme of things.

As for kingdoms, we all had the idea that the world would be something we created together.. if one person mentions a location, or describes the current scenery, we just go with what has been said and build upon it. That way we all contribute and stay invested in the story.

Hi everyone,

I have a few characters to read over so far, i'm currently semi-busy with real life... But i'll endeavor to read them asap. I have read one or two and I can tell there is enthusiasm, and I will PM those of you who need to make one or two tweaks, and honestly, they are minor.

A lot of the characters are pushing their power boundaries and I ask you to carefully read over your character's and make sure they are balanced and fair. Even if they are evil. This RP will work best provided everyone is able to contribute fairly and honestly.

Just came across this role-play and I must say, I'm majorly intrigued. There are a lot of things I'm interested but this time, I felt like going for something with a fantasy-feel to it, so I'm here. So, one question: Will there be a minimum limit of words typed? I know you wouldn't want a one liners but a rule that needs it's participants to write 300+ words each time is quite a bit discouraging. Of course, I'm not saying that all of them dislikes this and I'm sure that a lot of people would want to type out 5 or 6 paragraphs of words and is still able to type more, but I'm like those people who finds typing too much a pain.

Although if you insist, I'll try my best, but I won't be able to guarantee posts with extravagant words nor feel. It's just that I have vocabulary of a young teen with no intense English studies. Describing isn't my forte, but I'm took on role-play as an entertainment and a training. (Wow, even sometimes I amaze myself at how much I'm actually typing)

Well, I would prefer 1-2 paragraphs personally, but if you are able to move the plot, advance a character and interact with others meaningfully and appropriately, I don't think a word limit matters. I'm a big writer (in an RP) so I can tend to churn out a few hundred words minimum... So I feel like if you can read around 300-500 words it's a fair bet you'll get enough information to write the same amount back.. Does that make sense?

I'm sorry if I sound like a dictator, I know that I can sometimes have grandeur thoughts and tight restraints, especially with word limits. But my short answer is 'no' there aren't a minimum of words to write. Just be literate, stick to what I said just before and you should find you'll be writing a bunch of words before you realise that you've unleashed a small novel upon us. Of course you shouldn't feel pressured though to write until your hands fall off either. Be comfortable!

Hope that helps.. It's late here and I am in need of rest.

Thanks. I'll get to work on two characters. Hopefully, I won't have any kind of flaws in them. Also, get some rest, dude. You'll need it to concentrate on spotting a character's flaw and be picky with them.

EDIT
I just went through the collaboration thread. So I guess that antagonists won't have a lot of screen time in this role-play like what you all have discussed there? I was thinking of making an enemy for my main character who will later help my character fight the evil lord.

Oh and if the class thing still applies here and that I should tell people what I'm gonna make just so they wouldn't make a character similar to mine, I plan to have my main character to be a "Iai-styled swordsman" or somewhere along the lines and the other character to be a "Lightning orientated spear-wielder".

Hi everyone, Sorry for the absence, at the moment I have to apologise sincerely to everyone who has created a character for this :( I know that it's a massive smack to your wonderful faces, but real life has caught up with me (hence the minor activity thus far) and if I start this RP anytime soon, I might have a breakdown. I'm really sorry!

Does that mean this role-play is now closed?
