oo1; The Basics. As in every community, we ask that you follow the same simple rules. Do not mix OOC/IC, do not God Mod, do not make Mary Sues, do not make your usernames something like ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) lilredbabee02 or wonderssxxxland and make it have something to do with your character, something like aliddell or littlexred.
oo2; Activity. You must update your character journal or participate in an active thread every 2 weeks. You can of course do so more often, but that's the bare minimum. Each entry should consist of at least two well-developed paragraphs. We understand that not all characters are the type who would use their journals, so the other option is threading. If you choose to use a thread as your update requirement, your responses to the thread must be equal to the amount of work you would put into an entry. This means no one-sentence replies will be accepted. As mods, we completely understand that RL comes up and sometimes activity requirement can not be met. If this happens, please just let us know! We will be more than happy to work with you if that's what you need.
oo3; Hiatuses. Hiatuses can be either announced in the OOC community, ![[info]](http://www.insanejournal.com/img/community.gif) wondersland, or you can PM or IM the mods directly. We tend to be very understanding about hiatuses (Hey, we've all had to take them!), though if we don't hear from you for a month, you'll probably be on the next activity check and then dropped. If that happens, and you come back and want to play, just contact the mods; generally, we can add you back without a new app, just talk to us!
oo4; Character Complexities. Dealing with your characters; as they are based off of actual fantasy characters, we ask that when you are applying you give them the name that they are dubbed with in their fairy tale/fantasy book. If they are not listed, then this rule is by means wavered. We do, however, ask that their chosen name has something to do with their character. For example; in Alice in Wonderland the main character is Alice Liddell. The person applying for Alice would have to keep this name. If someone decided to apply for the Knave of Hearts, however, they would be able to give him a name of their choosing as long as it was related--something like "Jack Heart" would fit quite nicely. The exception to this will be for foreign names - for example, if you wanted to play Uzumaki Naruto, you could make his name "Nathan Usher" if you didn't want to make them from Japan. We also ask that you keep your characters realistic, as well as the situations that they will encounter within the game. There is room for all manner of shenanigans in the game, but they are in a hospital.
oo5; Miscellany. Last but not least; have fun, bitches! There is an almost endless well of creativity to draw characters from, and any number of crazy situations and interactions to shove them in to. The point is to play, to experiment, and to have a good time. That's what makes it work!
As a warning; this community will have mature themes; death, violence, incest, rape, cursing. Threads will be cut and marked appropriately, but if these things will bother you, Cheshire might not be the best choice.
