Costume Rules:
  • Customized Weapons are allowed. This includes shields, blades, guns, etc. Players are asked to only draw weapons however and not utilize power animations.
  • Powers Usage is limited. We understand that there are a variety of power customization options, however powers can affect other players unintentionally and can also diffuse attention away from other character components. Players should limit their use of powers and utilize them for Aura purposes. Examples include, but are not limited to Fire Shield, Rock Armor, Personal Force Field, and Invincibility.
  • Be very careful in your power choices and avoid overusing multiple powers. Powers should not hide your costume.
  • Powers that affect other players or have a large radius may result in disqualification from the event. Examples include, but are not limited to Steamy Mist, Lightning Field, Hot feet, and Shadowfall.
  • Please contact a P.E.R.C. Representative if you have any questions about a specific power.
Judging Rules:
  • A panel of P.E.R.C. Representatives from other servers will be compiled to judge this event.
