Applications should be sent through twitlonger or DM to our main twitter account. Our group is an OC based roleplay group, meaning you will create your own character instead of choosing from pre-made roles, unless you ask an admin, who can create a character for you. Characters should have a good backstory, and send in an in-character audition, preferably 5+ tweets or a paragraph or two. If you have no idea for a character you would like to create, you may request for an admin to make one for you.

This rule, we cannot stress enough. We want this group alive and kicking! If you aren't active on your account, storylines would deplete. For this, admin(s) will be giving out warnings to accounts who have been inactive for more than two weeks. Pictures and retweets do not count as activity, you must interact with other members of the group. Commitment is key.

Please try to keep grammatical mistakes to a minimum. They happen, but it's not too great for other writers to see all the time. Proofread is the key to this rules, really. Text-talk is a no around these parts. That means no smiley faces, emojis, 'r u ok', or anything alike. If you can't handle it, this probably isn't the place for you. Lengthier replies are something we enjoy, too.
M a t u r i t y
There will be mature and triggering content in this roleplay. We ask that you limit your cursing on the timeline, and try to keep the triggering subjects to a minimum. Some members may not like seeing too many profanities on the timeline, or are sensitive to triggering content, so we ask that you respect that. They should do the same. If you are in any way offended or uncomfortable with something, please let the other account know, or notify an admin.

In this group, there will be in character drama. Things like that in this roleplay are encouraged. Injuries, pain, love (ending in tragedy), etc. It will occur somewhere in a storyline. However, out of character drama between writers will not be tolerated. If there is a disagreement between authors, they must solve it through DMs, or an admin should be notified. Warnings will be sent out the first time, and it should happen a second time, you will be asked to leave the group. No three strikes. If you can't get along, we cannot have you.
S h i p p i n g
Shipping characters is allowed in this RPG, but when you ship them, make sure it is because of the chemistry, not because of the faceclaims. For example, do not ship them just because the FC is Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder, David Tennant and Billie Piper, or Kim Possible and Ron Stoppable. Ship couples based on the chemistry they have, please.

We are allowing smut in this group, but think about it for a second; especially if you're writing for a tribute. . . The Games are set in the cold, where warmth is key. Cameras are everywhere, and everyone can see you. Gamemakers can see you, and probably will kill you then and there. Either that, or your character freezes their diddly-doo. Trust me, you character does not want to be remembered that way.
O u t O f C h a r a c t e r
We'd like to keep the least possible OOC on the timeline, so we ask that you keep as much out of character posts in your DMs or on your out of character accounts. We do not require to know your writer account, but it is preferred. It is not a must. When tweeting on the timeline, we ask that you use a clear indicator to show you are OOC (brackets, hyphens, slashes, etc.).
G o d m o d d i n g
This is an absolute no in our group. It will not be tolerated. All people have strengths, along with weaknesses. If godmodding is seen on the timeline, or an admin was told about a character godmodding, you will receive a warning. If it is repeated, you will be asked to leave the group. Another branch off of godmodding; controlling other characters is not allowed. If it is not your character, you cannot control it.
A c c o u n t s
You may have up to four accounts in this roleplay. We don't mind you having more than one account, but be sure you can handle the number of accounts before creating them.
I n t e r a c t i o n
You are only allowed to RP with characters from within this group, because of the specific plot. Follow all members of Carnage, including the main account, and the Arena RP account. Thank you!
F a c e c l a i m s
Doubling faceclaims is not accepted, unless there are twins, triplets, etc. We have a right to ban faceclaims, as we do not want certain people in our RPG. It's nothing personal, we just don't believe they're quite right for the plot.
H a v e F u n
This roleplay is purely for our entertainment, right? We want to make sure we keep it that way. Many writers think of roleplay as an escape, to enjoy themselves and get away from their own drama. Let's keep it this way, and enjoy our stay at Carnage.
