Characters

There are two main classes and a secondary class of characters available on Transformers 2005 MUSH:

  • Original Characters (OCs): A character that you, the player, have created.
  • Feature Characters (FCs): A character that was created by Hasbro/Marvel and "belongs" to the core theme of the game.
  • Original Feature Character (OFC) A character that was created by the staff of the game to fill an important role not filled by any available FCs. (As of now the only remaining OFCs are the Sweeps and a few Autobot 'femme' warriors.)

Points

Players are allowed to have multiple characters on TF2005. To make things easy, we use a "points" system where certain types of characters cost more than others. As a rule, all players have 5 "points". This number can be raised or lowered at Charstaff's discretion.

[edit] Original Characters

Unlike Feature Characters (FCs), Original Characters (OCs) do not time out. Additionally, it is not current Character Staff policy to remove unplayed OCs from the database (e.g. @nuke). Instead, based on a player's request, Character Staff will "shelve" an OC. This means that we reset the password and you can no longer log them in. The upside is that this frees up a "point" for you to use on playing a new character within your 5-point limit. Additionally, if your situation changes in the future, and you have the spare point, you can un-shelve your OC and resume playing them.

[edit] Additional Restrictions & Notes

  • There is no 30 day waiting period between apps. App as you feel fit. But if you start char-hopping through 100 characters in a month, Charstaff may tell you to start waiting between applications. ;)
  • All IC time policies will be enforced per character regardless of how many characters you have (e.g. if you have 1 EFC and 1 NFC you will be expected to meet IC times for both of them: 7 hours/week and 3.5 hours/week respectively).
  • You may only have one gestalt team character (e.g. if one of your characters is a Constructicon you can not also have a Protectobot or even a Stunticon).
  • Your characters should never directly interact with each other. Indirect interaction should also be avoided whenever possible.
  • By default, character limits are issued by site. If you have a unique situation (e.g. two roommates with the same IP address), talk to a Character Staffer.
  • Only YOU should play or log in as your characters. Having someone else log in your character is grounds for removal.
