Emcee Shynose Presents:

Y halo thar, boys and girls.

Today we're going to do a little review. We'll be going over a lesson that is very near and dear to my heart, so I hope you'll all pay attention.

The City's Canon
> your canon.

Do we all understand thus far? Good. Then I'll continue.

This role-play game's setting is an isolated placed in-between dimensions only known as "the city". This city is filled with all the resources that one could possibly need, nearly everything and anything can be at the residents' fingertips. There's no rent and anything can be used for currency - almost a perfect utopia, aside from the fact that once you're in you're stuck and a few days out of the month you're plagued by sometimes strange, sometimes painful and more often than not the most awkward of supernatural occurences.

ohyes, and rumor has it that the city marks the end of everything as you know it and is counting down as you draw in this very breath. Are you writing this down? ♥

Now that the basics are out of the way, hope that you and your character enjoy your stay in wonderful "the city", but since it is a fairly complex place with many different people and creatures from all dimensions and walks of life, we ask that you take a few things into consideration before you head off to play:

Please. Read the rules. They are located HERE. Please. Read the Q&A/FAQ often. It is located HERE. Hell, there are even questions that "Lanika", one of the "higher ups" answered for the city's residents, which can be found HERE. If you have any further questions do not be afraid to ask in the Q&A section, e-mail the moderators or contact us via AIM. If you're not sure about a decision regarding something you want to do with your character and it could potentially effect more than just you - ASK before you do it. There's no such thing as a stupid question, alright? We'd much rather you contact us then us have to contact you in a not-so-happy manner.

Us moderators here at Polychromatic want to make sure that everyone has the best time they possibly can playing here. We're passionate about this game, and we'd like to keep you, our players just as passionate and interested. However, it can be a tough job. So mostly I am writing this to remind you guys as kindly as I possibly can:

Please respect the canon of the city and this game first and foremost. Before your character's canon, before the canon of your friend's character and before the canon of your dog's character. We don't have that many strict rules and for the most part, we allow you all to do what it is you wish - so we're reminding you to please respect the canon rules of the city. Because, no. Your character is not above them. I'm sorry, but it's true. Not even the city's deities are above the rules of the "higher ups", so if y'all can respect that and adhere to it, that'll make things continue to run smoothly.

That being said, if anyone has questions or comments about the homework, now would be the time to let me know.

Thank you,

Ponta-mod ♥

But we can still recruit for a supposed City God Crusade, right?

And yes - in full understanding that it's a rather futile, destined to eat dust and a nice assortment of vermin from the start?

Oh, that's rather quite all right, there really wasn't anything to miss...

Hadn't thought of talking to the mods just yet, partly because there's more of an instigation to war than an actual army right now ♥ It's something along the lines of "sell A to buy B and negotiate C and reset D only so that char X will even consider listening out to rebellion / war plans, let alone adhere".

But sure, I'll try to write down a solemn declaration of intents!

Oh, sure thing! Thanks for being so kind and nice and whatnot - if an actual army or faction is raised, of couse I'll give ample notice. (Though I doubt we'll manage it - every character in this City is looking out for his or her own interests to such an extent that an organized move of any proportions should be very difficult.)

Is there going to be war? I assumed it was more angst fodder to turn Alexiel's hair white like Rosiel eventually.

And though I truly adore the idea of white haired Alexiel, I'm afraid pride comes before sisterly love.

Damn your dog's canon! Should just stick to sniffing butts! DX

This post is sexy. ♥

Gay? My icon is not gay. What lies are you speaking, Tsuyuyu?! DX

I'm not entirely sure where to put this question because it's doesn't pertain to the mechanics of the game, but to my character's...rather immense size.

Yamino's not the kind to show off, but he will change into his real form (a gigantic snake) if provoked. He's supposed to be able to encircle the earth, but The City isn't that big (I think). Should I scale him down to a more reasonable size? Maybe ten blocks long? Fifteen?

Ah, okay. Thanks a bunch! :)

I love the fact that you called him Emcee Shynose. x) Winlove! Saeph's happy~. xD
And and:

It's a poor shame the City's canon pwns the dog's canon too. xDDD Sorry, that part of the whole thing just cracked me up, and I needed it too. ♥
