Creating your Character

[Estyre Legends]

CREATING
YOUR
CHARACTERS

Characters Per Account ;;

There is no restriction on the amount of characters per account, you're allowed to create as many as you want and place them wherever you please. We do not limit the amount of high rank positions your characters are allowed and provided you are active you can apply for any rank or special character you desire.

While you're allowed any number of standard characters we only offer one God character per account. You can swap deities or put yours up for adoption just like any other character but the amount of threads it may participate in is limited at any one time, likewise you can be requested to not use your deity in particular areas owned or lead by another person, likewise if someone else has a deity they can ask that your deity not be allowed in their home residence. For more information on your character Deity please check out our Deities Thread.

Allowances ;;

Estyre allows all creatures and any possible hybridization. Basically whatever you want to make you can make. The only issue with character creation is Mythical Creatures or creatures that don't have enough of a particular creature to be classified under any of the submission boards.

When and if you come across this issue you can do any of the following ;

Guess ;; Just pick any animal that's part of your creature and say 'Hey, it has cat ears, I'll stick it in the cat boards, I don't mind having it called a cat hybrid!' Then there you go, problem solved.

Other ;; This seems like a logical place, right? If your character simply cannot be considered any other creature just place it here, you can request specific categorization for your character when they're excepted and we can place them into appropriate boards, such as Custom Species, Excessive Hybridization, Freak of Nature. You get the point.

Ask ;; If you just can't figure out what you want to do then just ask, our staff and even members can help you classify your creation or advise you further.

Custom Species ;;

If you've created a character that doesn't fit into any category you may want to have them recognized as it's own breed, separate from any of the others. Doing this may seem difficult but just follow the steps and you're on your way!

1; Create your character.
Create you new critter and post (Awaiting Support-Name of Species) in the thread title.

2; Get some backup.
Post a thread or speak to other members about your critter, ask people who are willing to create creatures of the same species as yours and when done ask them to post the creature species name in their title, such as - (Name of Species)

3; Get approval.
Once you have a fan base of 4, this means 4 members have created characters that follow your species guidelines, you can approach a staff member. Explain to them a little bit about what defines your species and they will give you a species shit to be filled out.

4; Fill out your sheet.
That's pretty much it, just fill it out. Keep in mind staff may edit it to sound more official afterwards but nothing information-wise will be touched.

5; Be Approved.
If the staff think your species has enough information they'll put you in the approval stage. During this time a new board will be created under 'OTHER SPECIES' in the submission board for character submissions, and another under 'OTHER SPECIES' in the approved board, for, well, approved applications. If need be there may be a thread or new board posted to contain information and questions about the species, most of the information will be written by you.

6; Done!
That's it! Look at that, your own species!
