I've composed a list of roleplaying terms for you. n__n You can see if your wolf makes the cut, or just obtain more knowledge. xD
Literacy-- Having excellent grammar, spelling, punctuation, capitalization, etc. Often using vivid, descriptive words in their posts. A very good thing. xD
Antonyms-- Illiterate
Ooc-- Out of character. Use this when you have something to say that doesn't pertain to the roleplay.
Bic-- Back in character. Use this /after/ an ooc comment. However, we prefer ooc comments to be put after ic (in character) posts.
Despie (Desperate)-- Ugh. D: Horrible. One who endlessly seeks attention, or roleplaying for the sole purpose of getting themselves or their characters a date. This includes doing stupid things, dropping dead because no one is paying attention to you, or walking in with a serious injury that needs immediate attention. -.-
Godmode/Powermode-- One who does not give their fighting opponent a chance to retaliate... It seems strict, but fair's fair. Go to the fighting ring for a look at godmoding...
Note: If you're roleplaying with someone who starts to godmode, you can report this to the admin, and we'll take care of it. Rest assured, we won't ban your opponent or anything, but we'll modify their posts to make them acceptable.
Mary Sue-- An utterly perfect character. Shimmering white pelt, dazzling blue eyes, simpering personality, great with pups, and compatible with all. Intolerably annoying. (: Key words: beautiful, handsome, shimmering, sparkling, dazzling, sweet, kind, caring, etc., etc., etc. -Vomits discreetly- xD
Here are a list of acceptable terms that can replace old, worn words. n__n If it's not on here, either I overlooked it or it doesn't mean what it's intended to. x3
Male-- brute, brujo, mascu(line)
Female-- fae, femme, vixen (Well... That's a fox femme, but I'll let you use it anyhoot.)
Fur-- pelt(ry), coat, hide, fur
Eye-- optics, visionaries, eyes...
NOT-- pools, orbs... Sad as it is they have no connection with eyes whatsoever.
Ear-- aud, ear
NOT-- towers
Paw-- mitt, paw, pads
Leg-- limb, leg, appendage, shank, flank, foreleg, hind leg
NOT-- piston, dagger (Dagger? I mean, come on! Piston's bad enough.)
Muzzle-- maw, muzzle, snout, nares (Well, those are nostrils, but whatever.)
Head-- crania, head
NOT-- dial
Tail-- plume, tail, tassel (Borderline word.. x.o)
Walk-- pad, stride, amble, saunter, trot, stroll, move, sidestep, backstep, advance, approach, wander
Look-- (v.) glance, gaze, peer, study, scrutinize, peruse, stare, glare
Think-- ponder, muse, peruse, reflect, contemplate, cogitate
Black-- ebon(y), sable, dark, charcoal, black
Gray-- slate, ashen, dusky, gray
Brown-- chestnut, mahogany, chocolate, tan, sienna, copper
Red-- crimson, scarlet, ruby
Orange-- tawny
Yellow-- gold, tawny, cream, ivory
Green-- jade, emerald, verdant, olive
Blue-- Cobalt, azure, sapphire, turquiose, teal, cerulean
Purple-- Orchid, lavender, violet
White-- white, snow-white, ivory, pale, pallid, hueless
If you have any further questions or need advice, please PM (Private Message... Go to my profile to do so. x3) me. I'm not the best helper, but if you need help writing an intro or anything, you can drop me a line... Even lengthening your post. If you're having acute writer's block, I can help you find a lead.
