Characters

NOTE: WORK IN PROGRESS BY TODD DO NOT TAKE AS POLICY JUST YET!

Feature
Feature Characters are the characters that you recognize from various Transformers source material: Rodimus, Galvatron, Jazz, Bumblebee, Scrapper, Wreck-Gar, etc. They fall into four categories based on their importance or rank.

Original
An Original Character (OC) is one that you (the player) made up. Transformers: 2005 MUSH has been running for over a decade, and as a result we have some seriously long-lived OCs that have written themselves into the fabric of our universe quite strongly.

Character Limits
Players on TF2005 MUSH are encouraged to play multiple characters. We track this via a points system. Each player gets five (5) points to distribute as they see fit.

Shelving
Since TF2005 does not @nuke (remove from the game) inactive OCs unless explicitly asked, you may end up with 1 or more OC that you no longer wish to play. In this case ask a Character Staff member to "shelve" your OC and it will not count towards your 5-point limit. The downside to this is that we will repassword your OC and you will not be able to log them in until you re-activate them.

Recreating an Original Character

 * Only if it is your original creation
