CONCERNS & INQUIRES

· FAQ;;

Q: So... uhhh, how do they communicate?
A: Of course you get a communication device, it is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand and can also do voice posts but no, you do not see the other character’s icons or names, let's just say it's a surprise.

Q: Can they die?
A: Yes! Though, you better be warned, being resurrected doesn't come without a price and that can range from loosing a few fingers to loosing your humanity or even sanity but that can always last a week or so depending on the wonderful Astryd moods.

Q: Then what is the use of curses?
A: It would be hilarious if a character turned into a werewolf randomly.

Q: How the crap do we get stuff?
A: Clothing is already provided, considering your characters wake up in a dressing room after all but if you require other stuff such as books or a TV, movies and the such then just simply wish for it -- again you'll loose something for a week but anything that can be consumed if usually already in the kitchen.

Q: What about weapons?
A: Whatever is on your character from when you grabbed them but we do not allow Death Notes.

Q: So no mystical weapons?
A: If you character has a certain power such as laser gun eyes then that is perfectly fine but really, if a character had a Death Note then it would be no fun but as noted, you could wish for one.

Q: It says in the profile: Characters will have a similar map in their communication device, although their map is... somewhat modified. What does that mean?
A: Lets just say that the hallways could randomly twist and turn or rooms can appear to be upside down at the most random times or when you want to enter another room then you will still be in the one you tried to exit from.

Q: So, what is the game and how do we play it?
A: You have found yourself in a practically haunted and deserted opera house that is in another dimension that cannot be reached, think of it as another private universe owned by two gods which ripped out the most entertaining, humorous, emotional beings in the world and stick them all into this house and see what is formed.

Q: And we're locked up in rooms?
A: During the time of 12am until 6am, yes, you are locked up in dressing rooms which have multiple mirrors and clothes in a closet which have an outfit or two that your character would recognize but the rest is costumes; now, the rooms are locked during those hours, you cannot get in or out but if you do not return in time then you really should watch out for Sverrir that has a habit of roaming around.

Q: do u lyk mudkipz?
A: Yes

Q: So... uhh, the gods, can we taunt them?
A: Go right ahead, yell at them, be pissed off and do whatever you want but you cannot kill them but of course they are consequences with such actions.

Q: Oh yeah? What if my character is uber awesome powahs?
A: Well, you cannot destroy the building or try to find a way out. Also, if you character has teleport they can only teleport from within the opera house but when the doors are lock they can only teleport between dressing rooms.

Q: And so we have a time to run the game on?
A: Yes, it is Eastern-Standard Time (EST = -5 GMT) and the clock is here so please keep a eye on it.

Question!

What happens if your character is super powerful? By nature, Fay is a very very very powerful magician, but it shouldn't be a problem because he doesn't want to use his magic (and he won't).

Also, Fay is cursed to kill whoever surpasses him in power, does that curse work here?

If your character is a veryvery powerful character then some of his powers will have been stripped by the two gods. If you give me some examples of his powers I might be able to tell you how they have been altered.

Ad for this curse, Fay may WANT to kill people who surpass him, but it won't be that he always can, since the player of the character Fay would want to kill needs to agree to the death.

This was a good question! I'll be adding it to the FAQ! Thanks!

Fay has very powerful destructive magic, and he knows some tricks to make people fall asleep or neutralize magical barriers. However, he's not going to use any kind of spell because he decided he wouldn't use his magic, so whether his power is lessened or not won't really affect my game (but I need to know because he'd notice and talk about it).

Fay doesn't want to kill people, he just goes berserk against his will and tries to do so. Could we say the Gods neutralized that curse for the time Fay stays in this world?

Ah well, he may feel that his powers aren't all there, because if the gods came across someone so strong, then they would have lessened the powers!

If that is the way you would like to play it, then that is fine! The gods neutralized the curse!

If he had them on him at his time of being taken then yes. And by on him I mean in his hand/in his pocket, that sort of thing. Any more after that will need to be wished for.

alright, that's cool. but when you say wishing for, does he have to pay a price in order to do that?

QUESTION(S).

- Does the room we wake up in have a bed? :3
- And what happens if my character wants to share said bed with someone for a night? ♥ Fai doesn't sleep well without his Kurogane. Is it allowed / punishable?

- No, it has a sofa, but a bed can always be wished for!
- Characters are allowed to sleep with whomever they wish! However, characters will be in separate rooms upon arrival. When the door unlocks they are free to go sleep in any room they like.

- There may be one of two outfits your character recognizes. The rest are elaborate theater costumes! [ Your choice as to whether he is put in a male's or a female's dressing room! ]

Question about the wishes/curses: it says that they can be screened so only the gods can see them, or not. Does the same thing go for usernames? Like, if someone wants to make their wish public without the others knowing who they are, can they do that?

(Reply to this) (Thread)


[info]d_mods
2007-12-31 07:17 am UTC (link)
Yes, they most certainly can! If you would not like one certain character seeing it, but everyone else just type [SCREENED FROM "character name"]

Q:If a character can heal, and they have taken injury/lost a limb from the result of a wish, can their power heal that?

Q:Research shows that her Mitochondria powers are not too cheap, however... I would like to confirm that certain powers are allowed:
-Self healing (espc. to the point of complete self-resurrection and ridding disease)
-Mass spontaneous combustion
-Mass cellular paralysis
-Temporary cellular decomposition (I.E. poisoning)
-Slowing one's reaction time and rearranging reactions (arm moves instead of leg etc.)
-Knowing another's physical/cellular condition
(Many of these would rely on other player participation, but I would like mod approval before I even think about these powers developing)

Q: How does a player respond to character death? Is their character dead permanently?

(Reply to this) (Thread)


[info]d_mods
2007-12-31 10:16 am UTC (link)
A: No, unfortunately, not from the gods but a curse/wish only lasts for a week. However, if they have taken an injury under normal circumstances such as a limb got blown off or the such then they can heal that.

A: I would believe that they are perfectly fine as long as you get the OK by the other players and we love to encourage character development.

A: When a character died their body is taken by one of the gods and said character posts an entry to say they have died but if they want to be alive again then they have need someone else to make the wish for them.

How can you get cursed?

Sverrir, the one who does curses randomly jumps into a thread at times and does a curse to one person but can also effect the whole of the opera house but if a character wants to put a curse on someone or want to interact with him then just leave a message at [info]deathmask_rp. Also, those who are out after the doors are locked will... well, run into him.

Here's a quickie: are you accepting both an OU and AU characters? What I mean is.. let's say Player A applies for an OU Yagami Light. Would Player B be able to apply for the AU Light?

(Reply to this) (Thread)


[info]d_mods
2008-01-06 09:10 pm UTC (link)
Yes, both are accepted, but only one AU of each character is accepted. So if the AU and OU of a character are taken, no more versions of said character may be apped.

I see we have a doctor from Dr. Who (not familliar with the series but Q is relevant.)
Can we app characters from other live actions series? (Particularly, tokusatsu... i.e. Power Rangers, Masked Rider)

Secondly... said character is possessed by 4 'demons'. Would you allow the app so long as all his personalities are covered?

I'm pretty sure we can allow that. :D
