[D] Reading an actual book

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.


Temporary Change: To reduce the strain on Dreamwidth's servers new entries will go up when a post reaches 3,000. Please refrain from spamming so we can stretch these entries for a little longer. We don't need several threads soliciting photo evidence of body parts, and we already know that we only care about yaoi. Failure to comply will only result in deletions and butthurt. "People may notice site slowdown/cache error pages. We're working on fixing. You can help: finish posts at 3k comments, not 5k or more." - Dreamwidth@Twitter

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.


Concerns?

Hey! Do not post anything outside of these threads. It will be deleted.
Go be cute and fun and fun and funny over here.

I would certainly encourage permissions posts on journals, although I don't know if making it mandatory would be a good idea. Aside from that, there would be regular Plot With Me and HMD memes, and anonymous contact is enabled on the mod account partly for anyone who sees people abusing their character's powers to such a degree. I don't really care what people do to Generic NPC Citizen No. 812, but it'd be shitty to have a single godmodder ruining other players' fun. Rule 9 is there for repeat offenders.

As for apping in weird stuff, that would depend on how it was worded in the app! For example in that case, if someone apped in as the Gamma Incarnate of Monsters in the Closet, they would likely have control over the childhood fear of such a thing. If they apped in as Beta or Alpha level power, it would be interesting to have literal closet monsters come into existence.
Obviously bringing entirely new things into existence would have to be well-justified, and they might have different personalities, justification-wise - for example, a general 'monsters in closets' power might be had by someone who's had that fear as a big part of their lives or who feels that kind of level of unreasonable childlike fear of things, or who inspires it in children. An Incarnate of LITERAL Monsters in Closets might actually BE a monster in a closet, like from Monsters Inc!

Does that make sense?

(And yeah, it looks like history section should stay there, with links allowed.)

That does make sense, thank you for answering!

I get it - most rpers are so afraid of godmodding they're usually pretty good with getting permission for stuff especially if that's something the game encourages - it doesn't have to be mandatory.

So with the powers it depends on the level of incarnate and the exact wording of the app - which also makes total sense.

I look forward to seeing this game develop! Good luck!
