Welcome to Fear the Wolves, a post-by-post roleplaying game where players have the opportunity to permanently shape the world–and shape the futures of the people living within it. We're an original superpowers mutant site, with slice-of-life, big city elements.
We've made this handy guide that'll hopefully make joining a little easier for you. First things first, though, you should check out these links:
NAME: You can create an account with whatever name you want, meaning that your "FORUM USERNAME" can be anything, but you'll have to change your DISPLAY NAME to your character's FIRST and LAST name. Properly capitalized without caps.
PROFILE AVATAR: 100x100. Any images above this ratio (150x150/200x200) will automatically fit.
The size of the large profile avatar is 250x350.
CUSTOM FIELDS: When you go to edit profile - personal and scroll to the very bottom, you'll see a few fields where you can input information:
250x350 Avatar: The large image shown on your user and mini-profile.
Played By: Your ooc Alias name.
Application: A link to your character's application.
Plotter: A link to your plotter.
Want ad: A link to your want ad.
Age: Your character's age.
Sexuality: Your character's sexuality.
Occupation: Your character's occupation.
Power: Your character's power.
We accept work in progress applications, but please, do mark them with a (WIP). All new applications must be put in the pending applications section. Name your application thread with the FIRST and LAST name, properly capitalized, without caps.
Your application must be finished within two weeks. If two weeks have passed without the application being finished, it will be moved to the archives, but don't worry, you can always have it moved back by asking a staff member.
Once you're finished editing your application and want it to be reviewed, either bump it by replying to the thread (tagging the staff is fine), or post it in the appropriate channel on discord. Once this is done, a staff member will review your application as soon as they can: Staff have 72 hours (3 days) to review content (be it apps, questions, etc). Do not message them or post in chat continually asking for reviews. If 72 hours have passed without contact, privately reach a staff member through discord DMs or on-site PMs.
Content surpassing a 1.5k word count take longer to review. We appreciate your patience during this process. Thank you.
Normally, apps go straight to acceptance, but some might need some editing. If this is the case with your application, you will receive a PM from a staffer and be asked for the necessary changes for the application to be accepted. Once edited, bump the application again. This process will be repeated until the application is accepted.
Once accepted, you're required to fill out your claims. Keep in mind that if you fail to do so and someone else reserve or claim, say your face claim, they have every right to keep said face claim while you'll be required to change yours. The same goes for any positions that may only be available for one character.
If you'd like to fill in the spot for a character that's needed in the world, you're more than welcome to apply for one! The site itself, and members, have a selection of character roles to fill. Just head on over to the wanted characters board and take a look. Keep in mind that some canon spots might require site points in order to be played. These will be marked as such.
You can also find all of the site's (and members') wanted characters in the same location. You can also post your own.
You should also consider making your own plot page for others to reach out to. While on-site plotting is not required (you can also use discord for this), it is highly encouraged.
