Ah my friends, this be the universally feared freelance rp area! On this board imagination and creativity run wild! Be forewarned, the ideas and plots in the threads below may scar you for life, and spark your muse levels into hyperdrive!
So, whilst those 1st 3 sentences of mine end with exclamation marks and must therefore be awesome, they don't actually tell you anything about this board or what you are meant to do here. Let me explain.
The concept of freelance rp is that anyone can start a thread here and for it use any plot they desire. For instance i'm planning on starting a thread where the plot is something along the lines of an opposite reality from Titans Gate, where personalities and alliances are reversed. However you could also start a thread where the plot consists of a land where everything, including the people, are made of cheese.
The starter of the thread should give a general outline of the setting and plot they want the thread to follow, and really that's all you need. However if you want to make an in depth plot and need specific characters such as a vicar, a performing monkey, and a magical singing spoon, these positions should also be outlined in the first post and members replying to the thread should add an OOC note at the top of their post requesting permission from the thread starter to play a character.
The basic outline of the first post in a new topic in this board is as follows:
Location: (America, Mars, an alternate dimension of Gotham City, etc)
Time: (The Present, 2056, 1854, etc)
Open to who: (List any specific people you want to join the rp here, or limit it to a specific group eg Fallen)
Plot: (A brief description of the plot for the thread eg we're all falling from an airplane and individually reflect on our lives to try and eventually come to a reason why we're falling in the first place.)
Any other info: (Other things you think players should know. eg, the laws of physics do not apply, fish swim through clouds not water, dinosaurs still exist, everything should be highly random, etc)
Obviously the basic behavior rules of the main forum still apply here. No excessive rudeness, if the thread will be highly violent or sexual place M in the title so staff can password lock it, etc. However other rules have also been added. To join a thread on this board you must first post asking permission too, and if required, give a brief description/overview of the character you will be playing eg Lord Steve of Chedder, High curdler of the Royal Cheese society.
But yeah, aside from that, anything goes! Have fun being crazy guys
