This is a BUFFY rp. You can rp original characters, or all-ready made characters (From the Show). Here are the rules.
General Rules
1. Remain as active as possible. This is going to be a fairly active RPG hopefully, and if characters do not remain active it could all go downhill fairly quickly. So, the consequence to breaking this rule, is that if you are not active for one month, without reason, you will be deleted.
2. Adult content is allowed. Since this is a Buffy RP, violence, etc. is allowed.
3. Keep in character as much as possible. If you need to say something quick relating to your post or someone else's, that is permittable, but no discussions about how cute so-and-so is popping up in the middle of a conference.
4. No adding links to other Buffy sites in your signatures. Advertising Buffy sites in the advertising boards are okay, though.
5. Post a Character Description after joining! It bugs me to have people join, but not post anything at all.
6. Signatures. Since I seem to now be allowing images in signatures, please do not post any over 500 pixels wide by 200 pixels high.
7. Multiple Characters. You may have 4 characters. Though YOU MAY NOT HAVE MORE THAN ONE AM CHARACTER!!
Role-Playing Rules
1. Avoid cliché. That is, make a character that is new and interesting. Also, in this RP I require that you make characters that are unique to you, except of course if you are using an AM character.
2. Be descriptive. Avoid one-liners as though your life depended on it.
3. Don't be overly descriptive. No one wants to read a five-post description of a dress, down to the last seam.
4. Use clear, precise language, and always be sure of the meaning of a word or synonym before using it. Don’t thesaurus-thump, but don’t be afraid to use one, either. (eg. 'Orbs' are not eyes. 'Orbacle' is not a word.)
5. Do not powerplay, godmode, etc. If there is one thing that annoys me, and many others, to the point of breaking into insane rants of frustration, it's god-moding. Play your character and your character only, please. I'll be liable to ban you for a few weeks for the first offence, and ban you entirely if it's done again.
6. Keep an eye on spelling and grammar. This sort of goes with the descriptive post rule; use punctuation where it is required, and always check for typos before you post. And, for the love of chocolate, please no chat-speak.
7. Your characters can die.
8. Do not turn a mortal without their consent. By this, I of course mean the consent of that particular character's player. You may only change a mortal character into a vampire if the mortal's player has either asked you to, or you have been given permission.

Registering
Hopefully, you have at least skimmed all that is above. So, what do you do now? First, register yourself an account.
Your user name must be the same as your character's name.
Next, I require you to copy and paste the appropriate form, which is then to be filled in and posted in the Character Registration forum.
For the Topic Title of your character description, please enter your character's name. If you are reading this, type Willow's Stake as the description of the topic.
Just to make sure things are extremely clear, let's go over that again. Copy and paste the stats sheet below in the Character Descriptions forum before posting in character.
