1. Where is my character?
In the city of Purgatorium. It is not a happy place to be; the streets are empty, the décor bland and the town itself borders on flat out darkness. There is nothing remarkable about Purgatorium; it is meant to increase madness with its nothingness.

Is it possible for a citizen of purgatorium to find any of the following:

stereo system
jukebox
music
CD
cassettes
8 tracks
vinyl discs

[purgatorium_mod]

There are radios within the city, and Zhygure owns a record player, but unless he decides to share, no, none of that is currently accessable, though it may change in the future.

If you're using an OC, what sort of character pics can you use?

[purgatorium_mod]

Sorry for the slow answer - for OCs, you may use any sort of character pictures that do not belong to a character currently in the game. You're encouraged not to use very popular anime/manga/television characters, though, mostly for this reason.

[pink_is_best]

I see. Thanks!

Concerning weaponry, since J's are technically a part of him and cannot be used by anyone else (at all) is it alright for him to be able to have such without proper authorization, or should he go and pester the Gods anyway?

Also, when I say weaponry, the J-Ark is not included. As stated before, it is trapped in the depths of Purgatorium to keep things fair- so to speak.

[purgatorium_mod]

Many apologies for the slow answer! Please give further information. From what we gather, it is likely he would have them but would be unable to use them until he hit the upper level.

Okay, don't mind the RP journal please, but regarding OCs - if, say, I had an OC from the Firefly 'verse. One character in that show, River, was in a government-run "Academy" where she was experimented on and conditioned, basically to become a sort of weapon/sleeper agent for the government. She had very little contact with any of the other "students". Would one of the other "students" be allowed?

[purgatorium_mod]

We would take it on a case by case basis. From what you described, it is likely she would be accepted, but we would need to read your application to decide.

Thanks for your interest!
