WHAT ARE USER-CREATED ROLEPLAYS (UCRP)?[break][break]

User-Created Roleplays (UCRP) are member-created open-world sandboxes or larger literary projects that cannot be contained within a single thread. UCRPs are not limited to any theme or genre. They may be fan-based, fantasy, science fiction, or a combination thereof.[break][break]

A successful UCRP typically provides the necessary OOC information to build a foundation for world expansion by its participates and any rules for participates to follow. Such information may include background, history, locations, technology, world maps, terminology, and character information, etc.[break][break]

The rules and structure of each UCRP are established by the UCRP's GM, and as such, they are moderated not by Arkadia staff, but the project's creators. The GM's word, therefore is law, and should be followed. The GM's rules, however, will not overrule any site established rules. All site rules apply.[break][break][break][break]
