Oblivion Roleplay Sign-up
I've been talking about it for a while and now here it is: the sign up. There aren't very many rules in the game, but here's the basics:

The Rules

1. Please do your best to use proper punctuation and grammar. Spell check isn't infallible, nor is grammar check, so don't rely on those. Also, no 133t 5p34k. It needs to be recognizable as English :)

2. Don't involve other characters in things without their permission. Casual things such as buying them a drink, a conversation, or healing are fine, but things like sex and romance, fighting, or quests are more personal. So check with your intended partner before you drag him or her along through an Oblivion Gate :)

3. We encourage original characters. This is your time to get truly creative. However, if you really have your heart set on, say, Hieronymous Lex or another NPC in the game, clear it with me first. We can't all be The Gray Fox of Lucien Lachance :)

4. I have a decent idea of the game--though I've never played it--because I have the hint book so that I can run it effectively. I will not be giving out spoilers for the game. However, it may not flow according to the main plot of the game, simply because these will not be computer controlled characters and events. Think of it as a 'What if...' version of Oblivion.

5. All standard races and classes of Oblivion are welcome. If you have a race or class not of Tamriel (the main continent of the game world)or if you really want to play a Daedra, clear it with me first.

6. Your character's turn is expected to be posted in a timely manner. I feel that three days if sufficient, but if you need an extension, let me know. If I don't hear from you in five days, I'll post your character's turn myself, and have him or her act in a way that is appropriate to the character.

7. Please request a hiatus if you will not be available to play for a week or more. During that time, I will play your character as a Non-player Character (NPC) and will do my best to play them in an appropriate manner.

8. I have no issue with evil or dsagreeable characters. However I will not allow random, chaotic rampaging evil. Those types ruin a game faster than anything else. If this is something you absolutely must have, then feel free to fire up your copy of Oblivion and have at it. I can't and won't tolerate it here.

9. Feel free to contact me at any time reagrding anything. The only dumb question is an unasked one.

10. Elder Scrolls experience isn't necessary. This can be handled either by your character being a non-native, or by familiarizing yourself with some basic lore. There's a lot of good Elder Scrolls related websites out there.

This is all I can think of for now. It will be added to as necessary.
