Roleplay Systematics

First and foremost, this roleplay isn't going to only involve Halo and Mass Effect elements. The base of the universe comes from elements by both universes- we allow players to bring characters from different universes so long as they satisfy different requirements.

Secondly, the GameMasters want to allow the players complete freedom to take Erlos's story however they wish. However, we will need to step in if things are becoming too unrealistic. We want the players to have full creative control of their own characters, at the same time we cannot allow things such as overly-powerful characters and/or organizations just to.

Simply put, we put emphasis on logic here.

Joining the Roleplay
Our roleplay is hosted on our community's discord server. Once the player joins, they will be directed to give themselves a role that allows them to see all the roleplay channels. Through there they can get the most up-to-date information about where the RP is at present, and where to send in their character applications.

''What, character applications?! /me hovers mouse cruiser over the leave button!''

Yes, we do character applications. This is our way of keeping quality control over the roleplay- we do not want random players to have overly powerful characters simply because. There has to be logic, reason, and sense to why they have the abilities they have. So if you are going to apply for a character with special abilities, we expect for you to know your stuff. This doesn't mean we want an entire essay on how your character got exposed to eezo dust to become a biotic. Give enough effort for us to be confident in your abilities to roleplay your character and organization with fairness and logic.

Also fun fact- you can use character applications from previous discord servers! So long the app has all of the required information, we'll accept it for review.

Below is the format we ask for you to follow when applying for a character. The GMs will review your application and will react if it is accepted, needs work, or is flat-out denied. We will DM you with your results, what we wish for you to change, etc.

 * 10) Players may use applications from previous servers so long as all required information listed in policy 1 is included. They do not have to follow the format.
 * 11) We do not accept word documents. If you want to avoid the 2k word limit, please use a google doc instead.
 * 12) Gamemasters ("Forerunners") can accept, help modify, or deny applications. They are generally encouraged to help members fix their applications versus outright deny them.
 * 13) Organizations
 * 14) Players must write about their organization in the Codex channel. In their message, they must provide the name of the organization... It's mission... Any assets they may have... And the character-leader of it.
 * 15) The assets an organization has will be approved based off the player's roleplay ability as well as the realism in having the organization exist.
 * 16) NPC Characters
 * 17) Players may use NPCs if they are hosting their own event, but may not use those NPCs as main characters.
 * 18) NPCs that are not civilians need to be written in the Codex so GMs can track them.
 * 19) Player-Based Events
 * 20) Players may run their own events on medium scale. They may not try to RP overthrowing the government, but they could roleplay a disaster event or a robbery or etc.
 * 21) Events are expected to be started and completed by the player. They may not "pause" an event unless everyone involved is fine with it.
 * 22) Gamemasters (aka "forerunners,")

 * 31) We emphasize quality roleplay. Players may not have multiple characters and organizations if they are not able to maintain this quality or require more practice with roleplaying in general.
