BEGINNER'S GUIDE
Hello! First off on the behalf of the staff team and members alike I’d like to formally welcome you to Beautiful Creatures if you’ve joined! If you haven’t fear not, this guide is specifically tailored towards our guests in hopes that one day you’ll come join our lovely community. This beginner’s guide is to help you guy’s help establish and integrate yourselves into our community. We all know how nerve-wracking it can be to join a new site. Should any of your answers still go unanswered then feel free to pop into the c-box and a staff member will get to you as soon as we can! Now Beautiful Creatures or otherwise known as BC is an original semi-realistic multi-species roleplay. This means that we allow most, if not all species here! This allows our members to explore different animals that they normally wouldn’t be able to get to roleplay on any other site. Isn’t that pretty cool?
First thing’s first is reading our Site Rules. They help keep structure and order to Beautiful Creatures and outline the general do’s and don'ts. After you’ve done that you’ll want to take a look at our Guidebook. This is where all of BC’s information is located. Information on the Dynasties that you can join can be found here along with their histories as well as general information. Once you have completed this and you’ve decided to join our ranks you’ll want to Register. As a general reminder, BC is a one account per person!
Before creating your character I'd recommend checking out our Allowed Species List so you can avoid creating a character that we don't allow here. Once that's done go Meet the Dynasties and see what Dynasty is best suited for your character!
Now that you know the in’s and out’s of Beautiful Creatures you can create your very first character! The Application code is simplicity in it’s simplest form. You’ll be using this when you’re filling out your character’s information. Once you’ve completed your character’s biography it’ll remain pending until either an administrator, moderator, or application checker review it and approve of it or ask you to change whatever needs to be changed. Here at Beautiful Creatures, we like our character’s to be well rounded when it comes to personalities. This means we don’t like Mary Sues or Gary Sues. So in order to prevent these kinds of characters, we have created a Trait List to help you pick our Negative, Positive, and Neutral traits for your characters. It’s also recommended that you take a quick look at the Used Names list in case a name has already been used.
If you don’t feel like making a character from scratch and instead want a character that already has history and relationships in the Dynasties then head on over to the Available Adoptable board and see what you can find! You might also want to check out the Litter Adoptions if you’re wanting a younger character.
Since your biography has been accepted this means you are now free to post freely around the forum and roleplay to your heart’s content! Head on over to the Plot Pages to create or join some plots for your characters!
If you ever have any questions or concerns head on over to the Help Desk or just PM a staff member and we’ll help you to the best of our ability.
