For those confused, an NPC (None Player Character) is a character (i.e. Story Villain, Supporting Character, etc...) introduced by a player for the sake of story developement.
This whole thing is rather simple. If you have an NPC character being used in one of our many RPG stories (i.e. Alfred Pennyworth, Vicious, Vic McCloud, Hellfire, etc...), we request that you create a small bio for them. This doesn't need to be insanely indepth like the Cannon Character or Original Character bios. Just give us enought to know who this character is, what powers/weakenesses they have, and so on.
If you have any questions about this whole deal, please ASK the admin or mods before you do anything, okay?
A few ground rules though...
1. You MUST be an approved member of the YJUTT RPG in order to use an NPC. That means you must have an approved Cannon or Original Character in the story.
2. The NPC is NOT your permanent character. They will be used ONLY temporarily for the sake of the story.
3. The NPC may be used by any player at any time. But if the NPC was created by someone else or introduced to a story by someone else, you must ask that player's permission to use them during a story. (That's common courtesy kids.)
4. If the character is an actual super-hero like Flash, Superman, Wonder Woman, then do NOT create an NPC bio for them. It is unnecessary.
5. Killing off NPC's is of course frowned upon. If the NPC is a DCU cannon, then you are NOT allowed to kill them. Period. If the NPC was an original created by another player, only the creator may decide whether or not to kill them off.
6. If you are creating an original NPC ask one of the Admins to look at it. Just for the sake of quality characters.
