FORUM Union of Lost Souls© Creating a Character The Steps to Creating a Character: Get an SN Make a profile Make the char legal Build your char Getting an SN: Just make an SN like normal on AOL. Just a bit of advice, Have your RP SN used ONLY for RP. Because once your character is established, You will be recieving tone of mail and constantly be IMed. Creating a Profile: There are many different ways to make a profile. Mainly, for RP, you want to include: Your Char's Name A general idea of their personality. General info on the char, not YOU, the mun. Remember, as you build your char, You will need to add certain info to the profile- Guilds, Skills, Dice, XP's, etc. Try to leave some room. Making the Char Legal: Join a Guild or Sign up as a freelancer under a Forum. Your Character cannot perform any legal action unless they are covered under a forum. ((Note: All legal guilds are already covered under a forum.)) Most chars are even ignored if not legalized. UNLESS The char is strictly for SL's only. In which case, they should not be attempting legal Rhydin actions, anyway. ((Such as Spars, AA's, SM's, DM's, RM's, HM's, Healing, Rezzes, or Proctering.)) Building Your Char: Once you have your char established, start making yourself known in Rhydin. Go around to public places, Make a good impression. Get involved in some good SL's. And don't forget to get into some spars and send in the logs. This will highten yor dice, and add to your char's skills. Rhydin: Rhydin is the name of the realm for AOL RPG's. The RPG rooms are usually found under Arts and Entertainment Although you can sometimes find a few under Special Interests ((But it's rare.)) Usually, the member created rooms are better than the AOL created rooms. Some Tips: Make your char original. Rhydin seems to have some stereotypes, Don't jump on the bandwagon. Be different! You will get noticed better. If you are a newbie. ((Newbie= Someone who has never RP'ed under this style before.)) GET TRAINED! Do the research. Learn the rules of Rhydin and make your char even better. NOBODY LIKES A MODER! ((Moder= Someone who refuses to play by the rules.)) Watch and interact. Learn how people react with each other. Integrate your char into that system. RPing is a GREAT way to have some fun and escape reality for a while. Get to know the rules. Become a good RPer. It makes for a great way to spend free time, and meet some new friends. It's like a whole other level of existance! You can be almost ANYTHING you want to be. HAVE FUN! Back to the UoLS Home Page:
