Character Changing: Step by Step

READ THIS FIRST: So, you don't like your character? Feel the need to switch to a character you can connect better to? Or did a more appealing character recently open up? Well, let's clear one thing up before you even consider switching. Switching characters should be your "last resort" when you are roleplaying. This cannot be stressed enough. Only consider changing characters if the one you have now is simply impossible to write about. If you know that the only reason you want to switch characters is because a character of a certain race, say, for example, a saiyan, opened up, then don't. You will be denied flat out. It's one thing to need to change characters, and another to want to switch characters.

Here at Chubbs Dragonball Z RPG, you can make your character to be however you would like. Just because they were some unknown character in the actual show doesn't mean they have to be the same here. You can have your character be a hero of the people, a maniacal villain, or you can even make your character a homosexual if you so feel the need. The possibilities are endless. You can even make some minor changes in your character's appearance, if you can back them up with an In-Character reason. The only limits are that your character can't have a major appearance change, change races, or change gender. But beyond that fact, your character is yours to design how you see fit.

So, once again, if you find yourself in a position in which you simply cannot write as the character you selected, then please continue onto the steps of how to go about changing your character.

Steps:

1. Think twice about your character change. Don?t do anything you won?t regret later. If you are completely sure about changing your character, then proceed to step two.


2. Pick a character you would like to change to, and make sure you are sure about it. The character switching penalty starts low, but can increase quickly. So try to get it right the first time, so you won?t go that far. Think hard about it.

3. Once you have picked a suitable character, make a thread in the Questions/Suggestions/Updates forum about it. Include the following in that post:

- The character you are going to change to.

- Who they are currently.

- Why you wish to change to this character.

- That you understand that you will receive a reduction (link to explanation of stat reductions here).

4. After you post that thread, wait for the staff to respond to it. Please be patient, as the staff members have lives. Remember the 72 hour rule that has been set in place. Once they have responded, you may get a few extra questions, but answer them, and you?ll be on your way.

5. Now, it is up for the staff to decide. If they say ?No.? to your request, please do not complain. If they say yes, however, they will handle everything from there. Be patient as your character is changed and stat reductions are put in place.

6. Your character is now changed.
