Role Play Rules
All of the following rules apply to any guests/members on LOAS. You will be expected to follow these rules. Failure to comply will result in disciplinary action. Please remember that the Staff of LOAS will be paying close attention to all of these rules and any violations of them.
General Rules
All roleplaying should be writen in third person/story format. This means using words like he, she, etc. Also remember not to type in Theater format. This means no Naruto: "Hey Sakura! How are ya!" *walks over to Sakura*
When posting out of character in the RP section, make sure to put ((OOC: Message here)) then put your post below it.
The only place for everyday discussions are allowed is in the Member Lounge, nowhere else.
NPC's, (Non Player Characters) or other characters that you play within your post, ALWAYS go in a different color. (No glow, but a different color.) The same goes if you're RPing more than 1 character.
Anyone one is allowed to create a thread within the RPs, once your done please send a PM to a staffer telling them that your done with the thread so that they may send it to the graveyard. Also if no one post within a thread within a month's time the staff does have the rights to get rid of the thread.
You must post a profile of your character first before you post anywhere that involves the RP.
Prior knowledge of Naruto is a must.
ALL RP post must be 300 characters
Do not cut in into the middle of a RP if they are busy with something like their in the middle of a battle, or a meeting after a long time,etc. etc. Don't interfere instead PM and ask if you can join in.
You are not allowed any signature jutsus without a reasonable reason as to why your character knows it.
If your character come from a custom clan you must make sure that the clan has been approved. Also if you want to join a already created custom clan then you must PM the person who made it and ask for permision. A member can have up to three clans but only one of the can have a kekkie genkia or blood line ability.
If your character possess a bijuu, you must be sure to remain active or else you will lose your character and it will be passed on to a more active member will to take the demon.
To members who are new, be sure to listen to the senior members of the site as well as the staff. And feel free to ask any questions.
All members must submit an rp exam prior to making a character. This rp exam will be graded by the staff you will be issued a rank. That rank will determine up to what shinobi rank you may initially make your characters. For example, if you scored a D rank on your exam, you can create up to genin level shinobi. This does not limit how high your shinobi can progress through roleplay, only their starting rank.
The chuunin exams will be held twice a year, as in the regular naruto universe. We will hold one chuunin exam in the spring and one in the fall. These will be the only time to advance your character to the next rank. remember your character must have at least 8 missions to participate. The village location will differ each chuunin exam.
Jounin exams are held in each individual village and will occur individually when the time comes.
Character Rules
All Character Profiles MUST be approved by a Staff member.
All Character Profiles MUST be written in third person.
Relations with Canon characters is NOT ALLOWED. This means, no traveling with anyone , etc), no long lost relatives/siblings/love interests and the like. If you desire a relation with a Canon character, please PM the person playing that character and a Staff Member.
Replying to Profiles is a privilage reserved for Staff Members ONLY.
Characters wont be allowed to use jutsu beyond a certain rank depending on their ninja class. For instance, a genin can use E rank and D rank jutsu just fine. C rank and above require special permission from the staff
Under no circumstances are unfinished profiles allowed to be posted up. They make the Profile Posting Board look cluttered and is a waste of space. Instead of posting these nonfinished profiles up, you have the option to save them on your computer in a blank word document. Any profiles that are posted up that are not completeted will be deleted without warning.
Acceptence, you are not allowed to Roleplay until your character is put into one of the sub-boards. Once its approved and we give you the OK, then your able to RP
Uchiha Rule, no more Uchiha's. The only Uchiha's right now are Sasuke and Itachi. Once they have kids, a Uchiha spot will be available.
All genin start out with having 0 missions under their belt. Missions can only be done by taking a mission in the missions area.
Reality, not every genin is a genius or has demons sealed away inside of them. Try to not be too powerful so we can balance out the teams. Remember...Genin are new to the life of a Ninja. They think Tree climbing is like the most awesome thing in the world. So please, don't make a Genin and act like a Jounin.
No Cannon killer Characters- this rule is in place so we do not have character designed to kill or over power characters with certain characters like Orochimaru and Sasuke. Though it is nice to have powerful abilities that you can rely on should you face on of the cannon characters it is not best to build a character with nothing by anti-sharingan or anti-Orochimaru abilities.
Characters are not allowed to use jutsu outside their innate element. The five elements are as follows. Fire > Wind > Lightning > Earth > Water. There is also dark chakra and light chakra which are ill explained but still exist. Remember that jutsu with your element are easier to learn and more powerful.
No cannon character rip offs be diverse in creating your character and let anything you want inspire you to create truly unique characters. True some of the character from the manga and anime have some really cool move but improvise and be original let your imagination sore to new heights and don't be afraid to ask for help from me or one of our staff members. Remember we are here to help you have as much fun as possible.
In addition to section of rule one, we are forced to ban the making of certain blood line ability rip offs. Meaning from this point on we will no longer accept Bykuugan and Sharingan like abilities.
All characters must be submitted in the format that we have presented to you and it must be filled out all the way. If you do not have anything to put in a certain spot then please place an N/A in that spot.
Character Disposal, when you wish you get rid of a character, you have on one of two options depending if certain conditions are met. The first is to move him or her to the adoption board or finish up your plot and have them killed.
Be sure that when your character is approved that your RP sample is approved as well because if it isn't you must pass the RP Dojo before you are allowed to RP.
No member may create more than three characters that are Jonin level or higher. We don't want to see a bunch of high leveled characters running around. Its okay to have a few, but if you make a lot and they all seem to be nothing but a bunch of S-ranked ninjas that just like to kill and have no particular benefit. They're just unfair random characters. Only exception to this rule is if your character rises up in the RP.
