EPOCH RP

Five years ago, there waged a war against humanity. The nations of the world had no answer until a small group of heroes lent their abilities to save them. The Nexus Force was created to rescue humanity from the grasp of chaos and became the greatest champions of peace and progress mankind has ever seen. Under its steadfast protection, the world recovered, and to this day, the Nexus Force stands as the epitome of heroism, molding the heroes of the future through its very own Institute. After all, the world could always use more heroes.         Are you with us? [ MOBILE NAVIGATION ] [ KRP DB ]

What's the minimum age for characters/face claims?

sixteen! :)

I've never been part of a krp before and it seems interesting, but I don't really know how it works. Do you have to play the people as they are irl? Like if I was going to use Jung Taekwoon, for example, would I have to play him as he is in real life?

it’s super fun, anon! you can play the face claims as they are personality wise, but most people like to switch up the personalities, i’ve found. basically what happens is people create characters from scratch with their own personalities and find a face claim that looks like they might suit the character. to use your example, someone might be looking to play a cold-hearted, emotionless character and might choose jung taekwoon from vixx, though he may not be like that in real life! other times, someone might choose the face claim first and then build a character from that face claim. for example, someone might choose bang minah from girl’s day in order to create a cute, bubbly ditz! there are endless possibilities, anon! and if you choose to dip into your krp adventure with us, i’m sure there’s a bunch of people here who would be more than willing to help you get situated. (:

i hope this helped!

Is charmspeak or such allowed as a power?

yes, that would be allowed! we’re really pretty lenient on powers here as long as you can have the proper checks and balances between applications and weaknesses. the only exceptions to powers we would probably not approve are those that we don’t believe can be properly balanced even with weaknesses. so if you have an idea, run with it!

Hello admins! I've got one question, what if we fail to be active a week and get removed from the master list, are our muses like banned from epoch or are we allowed to make them reapply? (if yes do we have to go through the whole protocol again?)

no, of course they aren’t banned! you have to wait a week from the activity check they were removed from, and then reapply!

is it possible for a character to not be born with an ability but they got it from some incident later on in their life?

yes, of course, it’s totally possible! there are actually quite a few muses here with that type of background already, so you’re more than welcome to do the same!

Are powers allowed to grow and develop? Like unlocking new abilities?

yes, of course! just make sure you’re unlocking new abilities related to your power and not new powers altogether (e.g., unlocking geokinetic surfing when you have earth manipulation, and not a related power like bone manipulation). we just ask that you resubmit your powers section beforehand so we can make sure proper balance is maintained.

as an additional note, there’s a handful of people who, when they submitted their applications, wrote in locked abilities to be obtained in the future. since we’ve already approved those apps with their locked abilities, they’ll be able to unlock them at their own discretion resubmitting!

would you guys consider a confession/gossip blog?

we’ve answered this before here and here. the answer is no; we’re not fuelling any drama when it’s already so abundant in the rp community as a whole. as confession/gossip blogs are a great catalyst in building aggression and unnecessary drama, we’re not considering it. it can tear communities apart, and that’s the last thing we want here – especially after working so hard on it and that people enjoy themselves here. if you would like to send in a confession/amiable gossip, you can send it to the main directory.

is vampire physiology allowed?

yes, we don’t see why not!

Will there be a sideblog for this directory? Not an OOC blog, but just somewhere that members can send in asks and leave comments about the muses?

no, we have no plans for an ooc/confessions blog, sorry! they tend to cause drama and accumulate passive aggressive posts and that’s something we want to avoid. if you really want to give a well-deserved shout out to a muse or mun you really admire, you can send it to the muse/mun themselves, or you can send it here!

what is the policy on miscellaneous posts?

we don’t have a set limit on things like song and visual reblogs, just please make sure they pertain to your character, and that you’re not flooding the dash with several of them in a row. we’d say maybe five non-writing posts per day, spread out would be ideal!

Hey is it cool to have a passive power like empathy?

yes, of course! we allow most powers as long as they are balanced and not op!

what does epoch mean?

as google so eloquently puts it, epoch is defined as “a period of time in history or a person's life, typically one marked by notable events or particular characteristics.” so be sure to make your mark! ;-)

does racebending count with hometowns? like a fully korean person being born or raised in the netherlands?

nope! as long as their ethnicity is korean, they can be born elsewhere. in fact, probably around a third of our recent apps are american-born koreans!

what is your memes rules/policy?

Any and all memes must be reblogged by the directory first before anyone else can do the same. If you think we need a new one to spice things up, don’t hesitate to go ahead and request one!
