❇ We are all friends here. Your characters can be the biggest jerks in space, but that doesn't mean you get to be. ;)
❇ Please give your characters flaws. I encourage you to take advantage of the amount of freedom you are being given, but if your character is faster, stronger, sexier, yadayada-er than all the other characters and no one gets a chance to show their individual strengths/weaknesses, then it's just no fun. Everyone deserves dehfunz.
❇ HAVE FUN, DANGIT. Seriously. What's the point of being here if you don't? If your character starts to bore you, you could always make another one and we could kill that one off. There are endless possibilities here, random new characters can be introduced pretty much whenever you want- just make sure to ask before going ahead and doing so. ;)
❇ If someone creates an alien race/species that you really like, and you want your character to be one of them, please ask the creator of the race/species first, and make sure you get all the information they have already laid out correct. Thank you!
❇ Try. Seriously, this should be the number one rule, or at least the number two on your rule-following-priorities list. (Yes, of course you should have one. What do you think this is? Sanity? Hah!) Put your back into it, soldier! No, but really, pleasepleaseplease put forth your best effort when creating new characters. After all, it is an entire species you're creating.
❇ For the sake of IC activity, let's assume that pretty much everyone goes through a washing of some extraterrestrial microbes, or has a chip installed in their brain, or something at a very young age, so that their brains automatically translate almost every alien language there is. You may make someone who doesn't, or a race/species whose language isn't included, just keep in mind that this will probably make it difficult for said character to be able to communicate with other characters, and vice-versa. If this is the case you should also provide some sort of reason, if not in the character sheet, in a PM to me. Please and thank you! :)
❇ I think that's it. Yeah. Oh, and feel free to make suggestions on anything you want, and ask questions. These things are important. Happy travels. <3

Some say he was an ordinary man, some say he was a hero. Some even say he was a woman, but usually he was alone. Sometimes he was lost, sometimes he was running, sometimes he was on a mission, for what always varies- but he always ended up in the maze. Or rather, on the maze. An entire planet, with levels upon levels of twists and turns, dangers and hardships and dead ends; that's what anyone that lands there has to fight through. It's a struggle to survive torments that they have never before seen. Some who still believe in thinks like Gods say that the maze is a prison, for the most dangerous creatures and creations ever known. In the center, escape is found, but people don't always make it there. Some say the sky is made of fire, some say of diamonds, some that it's guarded by a darkness, a horror unable to be described. They say there are creatures within the maze like nothing anyone has ever seen before, that it is home to many the endangered species, forgotten throughout time and left on their own to die out. These creatures protect their planet, their maze, their home with everything they can; or so some say. Others tell of helpful beings, set up as guides for the poor souls to become trapped on the planet.
The center is the savior. It's the only way out, the point deepest inside the maze, and that is the part that varies the most from tale to tale, teller to teller. Some say within is glories, treasures that would make the hearts of kings ache with longing. Some tell stories and descriptions of beauty so extreme that any traveler to make it there would never want to leave. Every now and again, someone even says that the center holds something as simple as a teleport pad, though maybe a rather large one, able to send multiple people anywhere they like; some say this 'savior' inside isn't even worth the fight to get there.
But none of that matters anymore, not to you. You all thought it was just a bedtime story, a legend, something people told each other for entertainment in bars and around campfires. You were wrong. That much is evident when you wake up on the surface. Now is the time you find out what's real, what's the truth- and what was, indeed, only legend. Now you get to become legend yourself. It's your turn to fight your way to the center.
An unknown number of years in the future, the Earth has died. Humans have been scattered all throughout space, settling mostly on planets that already have inhabitants of another species. Nowadays, full-blooded humans are rare, though they do exist despite rumors, and a lot of them (but not all) are living happily on a small planet called Terra. One ship headed for Terra, full of humans, aliens, and hybrids alike, for reasons that vary from being to being, doesn't make it there. Not the way they planned it, anyway. You are on that ship. It got pulled in, sucked down by an unpredicted gravitational force and crash landed on the surface of a planet many had heard of, but few thought to really exist. In legends and bedtime stories, mentions of this planet with it's maze-like surface have been scattered all throughout time and space- the only thing remaining the same with every story and every teller, is one line. "The only way out, is in." Nearly everyone has heard tales of what happens in the many layers of this planet, and what lies on the very last layer. Now you're going to find out what's true, and what is only make believe.
