PLEASE READ BEFORE SUBMITTING A CHARACTER APPLICAT

PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU SUBMIT A CHARACTER APPLICATION

We strive to maintain an atmosphere and level of writing that provides a fun experience for all. That said, we have a few rules regarding character creation that you should keep in mind when filling out your character sheet.

Please read these guidelines and feel free to ask one of the admins a question if you are unclear on something.

1. No canon characters. We all love the crew of Serenity, but we're here to tell our characters' stories, not tell Joss' characters' stories. If you would really like to run a canon character, create your own character with a different name, but a similar background.

2. No Rivers. Your characters are meant to be human. While River is a very cool character, someone with her level of powers (psychic, a combat death-machine) is not something we're looking for in PCs. Balance your strengths and weaknesses so as not to create supermen or superwomen.

3. No cybernetics, psychic powers, mutations, aliens, werewolves, vampires, mecha or otherwise non-human or superhuman traits or abilities without admin approval. Cybernetics are a touchy thing (like all of these others) and we want them to be more like prosthetics rather than full replacements, i.e., better than current time, but not something to replace and everything is as good as new. We will not approve willy nilly. Plus there are some special projects going on behind the scenes and that is for admins to know. :)

NOTE: This does not apply for the Nancy Nox (Supernatural Firefly). The Nancy Nox is a special ship with her own set of guidelines which are detailed in her section.

4. No Operatives. Having the ability to summon an Alliance fleet to rain death upon your enemies is something we'd all love to do, but it's not something we're looking for PCs to be able to do.

5. Balance advantages and weaknesses. Make a believable character.

6. Do not post until your character has been approved! If you post in the Eavesdown Docks or one of the ships before your character has been approved, you will make us very angry. You wouldn't like us when we're angry.

7. Please spell and grammar check your character submission. Large numbers of typos makes your application difficult to read, so please make your best attempt to have proper spelling and grammar.

8. Read the post "On Godmodding."

9. Go to the Character Application Sheet and create your PC!
