Just click your ass on out of my game like you never even noticed it. It's Mature only for a reason.**

To the people that matter:

System Mechanics:
Although the game is based on concepts from Palladium:Heroes, most of the mechanics will revolve around BRP and Runequest 2, with inclusion of some homerules to round it all out. This will hopefully give more emphasis to the gameplay and the story. Most of this will be Free-form anyway, but there will be some mechanics from one or all of these systems.

Writing/Home Rules:
This game is co-written by you as the players and the GM. You as the player are allowed a large amount of creative license, but results of attempted crucial actions will remain the responsibility of the GM. Crucial actions include attacks and skill checks. This is where the game mechanics will come into play. You post the attempted action, the GM will post the results. In some cases, you will have a better understanding of the display of your character's power, and in this case the GM will PM you the results and allow you to describe it yourself. This will also give you more creative freedom in your writing, and not take away from how impressive you might be in your actions.

There may be times where I'll have to adjust to make things work. I'm flexible like that. But the GM has the final say. If there's an issue, plea your case in a PM.

Posting Guidelines:
Writing will be purely third person past tense in all story related threads, as if you were writing a story about what some guy did a year ago. Give it your best. Be descriptive. Keep true to your character. If you metagame, give me something sub-par, or do something out of character,  I will call you on it, and possibly ask you to edit your post. It's meant to be fun, but everyone appreciates a real effort.
Try not to get offended by what another character/NPC does. We're all adults, let's act like it. If it's within the scope of the character, go with it.

Currently there is no timeframe for posting. It's when you get the chance. However, as things move along I will ask for at least once a week and eventually every other day. If you can't commit, don't bother starting. And if I need to move things along, I will post on behalf of your character. Let me know in advance if you have any major delays in getting a post out.

Within your posts:
[*] SPEECH will be in a color of your choosing and in "quotes". Try not to use what someone else is using. Ex: "Peace be upon you, Friend."
[*] THOUGHTS will be in italics. Ex: I don't know how I'm getting out of this one.
[*] Speaking softly, mumbling, whispering etc will be in small or sub. Ex "Wouldn't wanna be that guy."
[*] Yelling in CAPS, speaking with force in bold. Ex: "Get out. Now! NOW! NOW!"
[*] Inflection can be used with Italics within a speech. Ex: "You really don't know, do you?"

OOC (Out of Character) threads will be an open forum, but keep it respectful. Please try not to metagame.
OOC within a storyline thread should be in Orange. Ex: OOC- Superguy is attempting to blast him with his fireball.

Private Messages within the storyline thread are reserved for mechanics and questions to the GM.
Or if a character is speaking to someone else where others would not hear or understand, IE in another language or in someone's head.
