       Character Creation Guidelines *We Recommend You Read This*

       Not many rules about character creation. Make it whatever
       creature you want. Dragon, pony, changeling, griffins, goat,
       donkey, abominable snowman, anything! They can be a villain or a
       hero or even just your average joe. Just no humans please.
       Please do not make a canon character without admin permission.
       This is to avoid duplicates. There will be a thread listing all
       of the taken canon characters. PM an admin if you are interested
       in claiming one. Hold off on Mane 6 characters and the
       princesses for now.
       The biographies can be structured however you like it. Remember,
       you do not need to follow MLP canon completely! You can even
       have your own small head canons for your canon characters. Just
       don't go too far with it.
       Canon character's aren't required to have a bio but if you want
       to write one, go right ahead!
       Your avatar image (the one that appears on the left under your
       name) should you choose to use one, should be a picture of
       something related to your OC. This is to also avoid some
       confusions. For example, Cadance's avatar is a picture of
       Cadance. It could also be a picture of his/her cutie mark.
       We want to encourage as much creativity as possible. Therefore,
       we will not be checking characters before they are allowed the
       post. Maybe some people aren't as strong when it comes to making
       a character bio. It's unfair to not allow them to participate
       because of that. HOWEVER, admins have the right to tell any user
       to change their OC if they feel they are too overpowered or do
       not fit the setting/timeline.
       That does mean there are still some restrictions:
       No robots or cyborgs
       No humans (aside from Equestria Girls)
       No aliens (There are exceptions. This is mainly so you don't
       make like a human like character to bypass the no human rule)
       No OC's that are "From the future" (If you give an admin a good
       reason, then we may allow it, but it's unlikely)
       This is a strong encouragement, that you do not make a robot
       character with sonic speed and armed nukes and laser guns that
       represents every element in the Elemenet of Harmony and is
       impossible to beat.
       Pre-established relationships are for you all to decide between
       yourselves. Both parties need to be aware and be okay with them
       knowing each other. If a canon character is unclaimed, try to
       stay away from making a relationship with them unless it's
       confirmed in the show (for example Lyra and Bon Bon definitely
       know each other).
       Also, as stated in the rules, in order to ship, both parties
       must consent. DO NOT ship yourself with a character without any
       permission. Even if it's an unclaimed canon character.
       (Characters are more fun when they are not perfect. Rping with a
       perfect character isn't exactly exciting and fair. Flaws are
       what make character development fun)
