AboutWelcome to ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif)
desperatescreen! This is a multiple-fandom roleplaying community open to any (fictional) characters from films and TV. Our sister community is available for slightly more literary pursuits.
(For quick reference, here is a list of taken characters, and here is a description of the setting.)
To Join
- Choose a character from a TV show or a movie. Check the list of characters to make sure that he/she isn't taken.
- Create a journal for your character. The username should correspond somewhat to the character you are playing. Please also include the character's name and origin (show or movie) somewhere in the user information.
- Join the community and write an introductory post. In the post, state the character's name, the TV show or movie the character is from, and any basic information that we should know. It also helps to include something that people can start conversations about.
- Play all the characters that you want, but let others have a chance. (In other words, don't make 6 different journals in one day.) Also, make sure that you can handle all of your characters. Try to comment at least every two months, if possible, but we're relatively easy-going in regards to activity.
Other Rules
- Remember that this is mainly a community for TV show and movie characters. There is another literature community out there; the sister community. There is also another community out there for musical characters. Therefore, I will request that if your character is originally book-based, to please not play him/her in this community. (Examples include, but are not limited to - the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings series)
- Please be courteous to other characters. Do not kill or seriously injure another character without their typist's permission. Also, keep within the bounds of your character's behavior. In other words, godmodding is not allowed. Remember that some characters are insulting and rude by nature, and it is usually not an attack on you as the typist.
- No multiples. Please. If there were multiple versions of a movie, then pick one of the versions to stick by for whichever character you are playing. (Please state in intro post) That character in any other movie cannot be taken, then. If you are unsure about this, please contact a mod before writing an intro post.
- Most of all - have fun, and feel free to contact any of the mods should there be a problem or a question. We're friendly people, we promise! :)
