I.) Rules & Regulations

[ROOT ADMIN]

General

I.) Please be respectful of the other role players here. Making fun of someone for their race, sex, religion, etc. will not be tolerated and deserves an instant ban.

II.) This is a role playing forum, therefore we expect that any post you make will be literate to some extent. One word posts and general spamming are not allowed.

III.) Advertise only in the designated section.

Staff

I.) When I make you into part of my staff, it means that I trust you to do your part in keeping the forum going, even without me here. If I see that you are not capable of this then you will be demoted after three warnings. I can't run this forum by myself and I can't have my staff expect me to do all the work for them.

II.) Staff members are generally not restricted to only what their assigned duties are, with maybe a few exceptions there is no reason for you to ask for my permission to do something you see fit.

III.) The be respectful rule also applies to my staff. If I add you to my team then I expect you not to abuse your powers and to treat all of our members with respect and dignity.

Character Creation

I.) Only one  character per account! You may have as many characters as you'd like, as long as you can stay active on all of them, but you must have a different account for each of them.

II.) Please do not alter the character creation templates unless we've given you permission to do so.

III.) All Icons, or character images must be 100 x 100 px unless you have asked for permission to use larger images.

IV.) Your avatar should be an image of your face claim and your display name should be that of your character's.

V.) Face claims must be anime or game based.

VI.) All the canon characters are available as playable characters except for the ones who have already died in the anime (characters that show up in Fullmetal Alchemist but not 'Brotherhood' are not considered playable characters). This rule doesn't apply to the homunculus, while it's true that they did die in the anime, our plot is made to allow them to come back. Their forms will be different but we still consider them canon characters.

Roleplay

I.) I don't believe there is a need to add any sort of 'stat' based system for battling each other, that being said, god modding is strictly forbidden. For those who might be new to roleplaying, it's when someone acts seemingly invincible during combat or otherwise perfect in any other situation. Remember that no one is perfect and even the strongest soldiers can make mistakes.

Note: This rule also applies to people who try to control what another person's character does. Don't do it, it's just not right. *Glare*

II.) How you react in battle is up to you but how well you do overall, depends on your age and experience. ex: an 80 year old man may have the experience but how can he hope to defeat someone in their 20's?

III.) It is possible to die in this roleplay, no one is exempt from this rule, not even the canons. For the most part, it will be up to the role player to choose when and where their character kicks the dust 'so to speak' but characters do age in this roleplay and will eventually die of old age as well.

Military Ranks

Fuhrer
General
Lieutenant General
Major General
Brigadier General
Colonel
Lieutenant Colonel
Major (State Alchemists are the equivalent of this)
Captain
First Lieutenant
Second Lieutenant
Warrant Officer
Sergeant Major
Sergeant
Corporal
Lance Corporal
Private
Military Police

These are all of the military ranks in the roleplay. Of course not all of these will be available at the start, in fact, we will only allow roleplayers to freely apply as one of the bottom five positions.

It is possible for new characters to be one of the higher positions in the line up, but whether or not we make you into a higher ranking military officer will depend on how detailed your character application is. Please not that spelling and grammar are everything here, the more advanced roleplayers will become the highest ranks.
