F.A.Q. - Updated 06/02/22
Q: Can we play Link from Soul Calibur II?
A: YES! You can! There's too many different versions of Link, so we're only going to allow this version.
Q: What is the deal with the five different Nina's from Breath of Fire?
A: Well, all five of the Nina's can be played. They are all different people and such. None of them would know eachother and would just be older/younger members of the winged clan. Only BOF2 Nina and possibly, BOF4 Nina are provided with last names as far as I can remember. The other three Nina's can be given different last names. Same with the other similar named characters in BOF.
Q: Can we enter the big space station?
A: OF COURSE!!!! But, just remember, the monsters there are DANGEROUS. You may be able to defend yourself from a couple, but you would seriously get hurt. No one is God and can be invincible from these superbly powerful enemies.
Q: How do the dead characters work?
A: If you are to play a dead character, such as Auron or Aerith. When you are accepted you need to alert the other characters that know of their deaths from their respective games and tell them how they lived/what was changed!
Q: Original Characters?
A: Currently there are a lot of characters to choose from, so we're leaving it to just that. Original characters may be allowed at a later date. ^^
Q: Spoilers?
A: It is up to the player/mun's discretion on how they want to play their character so there is a possibility of game spoilers. You have been warned.
Q: Can you play unreleased game characters?
A: This issue was planted on the rules page. Unreleased game characters (as in, Japanese games) are allowed to be played provided you can give the mods valid proof that you know the character well enough. JP games are allowed as long as a translation/script is available and possible way to get ahold of game is available. Any JP game with an American release in under 6 months will have to wait. That's usually when people really start looking at information..we don't want them to go 'HEY THIS LOOKS AWESOME!' and then have the ending spoiled that same day.
Q: What's going on with the Soul Calibur characters?
A: At the time that this RP started, all of the then current Soul Calibur muns (players) have decided to play their characters right after the events of Soul Calibur 2. We are aware that SCIII has come out, and the characters will be allowed to be placed into the RPG. The official ending for us to use for SCII is where Siegfried destroyed soul edge and is no longer Nightmare. SCIII things will be played as pre-game events.
Q: Why no DMC?
A: Our choice not to allow DMC is not just because there are powerful chars in the series. We spoke with other mods and other communities have had trouble with DMC chars. We really do not want to go on a route that may cause Ergheiz to fall apart again.
This is what I've heard from other mods:
1. There are so many "OTP"s in the series that people might start saying things like, that's not how Dante's played! he's supposed to be going out with X or Y, not Z! or whatnot.
2. Wangsting is another serious problem. A comm with too much wangst drives away muns.
3. Powertripping. While yes, this can happen with other series, it tends to be a bigger problem with DMC chars.
4. OOC. Same deal as powertripping.
and the deciding factor: The founders made an agreement never to have DMC on the list. While, yes, the founders are no longer here, they are still the founders. This agreement will remain honored.
