Name:
The Artful Dodgers
Currently Recruiting:
[1]accepting new members
[2]looking for other players/SGs interested in RP
[3]wanting to let others know you exist, etc.
RP Level: Generally, we are Story Driven Role-players. We accept all levels of role-play, from beginner to advanced.
Theme/Concept: Go ahead, ask yourself...
* Are you a teenager who's one step away from joining a gang or villain group just to get by?
* Do you wish there was a place that understood your Special needs?
* Perhaps you want to become apart of something bigger?
* Or do you just need a warm place to stay and some company along your way.
When teens develop meta-powers, they face many risks. Oftentimes these dangers leave them in need of rescuing from their own lives.
Does this sound familiar to you?
We're not just another group-home or community out-reach center offering an empty plate full of good intentions, because we know what it really means to be at risk.
We're your peers.
Come Join Us!
The Artful Dodgers
Home for Wayward Meta-Teens
Celebrating our second year as a super-group on VIRTUE!
Become a hero! The first life you save maybe your own!
Activity: We have a rotating cast of over 25 members, each with fun unique characters. We have players from across the USA and members can be found playing almost any hour, however, we "Peak" during Prime-Time Pacific. We also have a weekly Role Play night, usually Tuesday nights.
Requirements for Membership: Code of Conduct
The Artful Dodgers were established as a role-play super-group of friendly, helpful players who are expected to aid their teammates and remain active. With those goals in mind, the following bylaws have been established.
* Attendance - Members will be eligible for removal from the group if they are inactive for more than One Month without notification of extended leave. To be considered active, you must log into The Artful Dodgers website at least once a month, and/or you must play an Artful Dodger character in game at least once every two weeks. If you will be unable to log into the website or play in game for more than one month, please notify a Big-Brother/Big-Sister or Counselor. A leave request should include a basic reason for being gone and an expected date of return. If you are absent for more than one month without giving notice we will assume you have quit the group and will then be free to dismiss you from the SG as needed.
* Conduct - Be courteous to all players, both in and out of the SG. There is no reason to verbally abuse anybody. Racism, sexism, religious slurs and any other verbal abuse will not be tolerated. Do not grief, kill steal or otherwise cause problems or interfere with other players' enjoyment of the game. On a first offense you may get a warning but there is nothing stopping the officers from immediately dismissing you from the group. As a member of this SG you represent the group in the public eye. Please do not give us a bad image. Always respect other players and be civil.
* Power Leveling - Please do not ask anyone to power level you. This is considered poor conduct. We certainly wish to group and have fun, and leveling is part of this. If you require assistance please feel free to ask. However, if somebody offers to power level you (within the group or outside of it), it is okay to accept.
* Social Interaction - We are a community and as such encourage social interaction. Teaming up as often as possible is highly recommended. Chatting in the SG chat channel and posting on the forums is also highly recommended. This group is about friendship, fun, and role play. You can't have any of those if no one talks to each other. Role-Play is highly encouraged, but not mandatory. Please be sure to let your team-mates know if you are role-playing in order to prevent confusion.
* Level Requirements - We are looking for heroes of any level ranging, from 1 to 50 and back again! We are willing to SK or EX any player for a team.
* Archetypes, concepts - We welcome heroes of all types to our SG. However, we are a theme role-play group based on at-risk teens so playing one preferred. Also we accept players who wish to role-play guardians, concilors, or mentors to our group.
* Roster - All characters in The Artful Dodgers must be on the Roster on the The Artful Dodgers web site. Minimum required information is character name, origin, archetype, and global handle (complete with @ symbol).
Leadership:We are not "about" leadership, we are about story. We role-play, improve, and have fun. You choose your own level of involvement.
However...
We have four members, listed below, who are considered "Leaders" only to resolve any rare and unavoidable conflicts that might arise before, during, or after game-play.
