***REGISTER WITH THE NAME THAT WILL BE YOUR CHARACTER'S NAME! (space between first & last name included!)***3. You must be sorted before you can post around the boards.
4. MP's are allowed, but keep to a number that you can handle so characters dont go to waste.

6. Your master character, the first character you make on the board MUST be RP'ed for one month before you can make a new character.
7. Cursing is mildly allowed if necessary, try to keep it clean enough though.
8. Racial, ethnic, or religious slang, or that of any disrespect is absolutely out of the question.
9. NO CANNON CHARACTERS!! This means no Harry Potters or Draco Malfoys or Albus Dumbledores! None of these characters have ever existed in this site!! You may have a character with the first name Draco or Harry, but no cannon last names. You will be notified and have to change your name if you do not follow this direction.
10. We request that if you put text in where your signature can be placed that it is normal sized and not overwhemling to your posts. Same goes for single pictures.
ALSO, ABSOLUTELY NO drug references or links taking to sites promoting such or anything else offensive. If you are contacted about it and do NOT respond nor take off the offensive material, the account will be deleted. If accounts are continued to be made with the same email or from the same IP and the material is re-posted in the profiles, your IP address will be blocked. It may seem unfair, but here at Prophecies, we do not promote any sort of drug use whether it is legal in other countries or not. SO DON'T DO IT!!

Everyone starting a thread must use a
TimeStamp! It is how we keep track of events and characters! If you do not use them, or use them properly, you will be informed by an Admin!
13. ALL members must make a Relationship thread (and maintain them), the only ones exempt are criminals as they are hiding from most of their commuinties, evading capture.
14.
*Amended 07-13-09* Wandless Magic may ONLY be used by adult witches and wizards aging 30-35+. NO STUDENTS may do wandless magic. It is a difficult feat and takes years upon years of silent wandcasting to hone one's skills. They'd have to practice everyday (with a wand, silently) with spells they wish to try without a wand. Simple spells may be easiest for most adults, like Accio without a wand, again, if it's a task they do everyday. But the more powerful, better trained the wizard (good or bad and - who had the grades in school!) they can do more spells without wands at higher (more difficult) levels. If there are ANY questions pretaining to this 'ability' pre-creation of characters or questions for existing characters - Please PM Miranda Pagano.
***RULES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT THE WILL OF THE ADMIN TEAM***
