INTRODUCTION
We have decided to allow Players to choose and design their own powers. As admin we may ask for changes to be made to the power and it's levels. Here are a few things you need to know.
All powers will be put up on the website (all contributors will get credit)
- This shows all players how they work and what the power does
- Allow other players the option to use that powers. (we may limit the number of how many people can have the power.) At this time we are not allowing player exclusive powers.
You need to be detailed in writing powers.. You may not use just a blanket term.
For Example:
If you want to use Shadow Power .. you must give details in how the power works.
CORRECT: Level 1 Shadow Power - Shadow Stealth ( The player can blend in with a shadow and hide) This will last 2 post rounds. There must be a shadow in the room for the power to work
INCORRECT: Level 1 If I win the roll I will be able to use my shadow power against the person as an attack.
Why is this important?

Why is this important?
- When playing with another person, they need to be able to decide if they want to have that power used on them (CONSENT). If they don't want to fight, they do have the choice to walk away.
- Players cannot abuse the power. If the power isn't detailed a player can change what the power does. Therefore, things they are trying to do are not approved.
You do not need to write up how your dice roll works with you power.
As of right now all dice roll is the same. 2 out of three is successful.
This may change in time but for starting off we are keeping it simple.

USE THE ALREADY WRITTEN UP POWERS AS EXAMPLES
POWER LIMITS
As you have read all players can become stronger through roleplay. There are a few limits though we have set to make sure all powers are fair. Make sure you consider these limits if you are submitting you own powers.
1. No one person or group can destroy the island. The island of Mythia is alive. The island is power and is more powerful than all the Ancient Gods. If any group regardless of their power tried to destroy the island, the island would turn them all into ash. The island will protect itself and its people.
2. No one is all powerful. We expect players to play fair and take as many hits as they give.
3. Powers must be used with either dice or roleplay. If players can't agree the Dice is the default. Please remember that no one is successful 100% of the time. Failure can be fun and can lead to a good story.
4. Powers have limits and over use will cause a character some side effects such as fatigue etc.
5 Level 1 Powers can only be used on one player at a time. (There are a few exceptions but must be approved by admin. If it is not stated on the website, it has not been approved.
6. No Magic huds are used on sim.

**Limited Numbers - Due to roleplay restraints and number of players on sim we are limiting the number of players that can have certain powers. The numbers of this role will increase as the player base increases. If you choose one of these limited powers you will be expected to be on sim 2 to 3 times a week. Unless you speak to an admin about not being around, after 2 weeks of not meeting this obligation you character can lose their power and will be asked to choose another one.
POWERS THAT ARE NOT ALLOWED
Restricted Powers (due to the lore or how these powers are played we have decided these powers are not available)
- Temporal or Time travel
- Inter-dimensional travel (The Time Lord has already stopped by Mythia but the Minotaur got to friendly and he doesn't want to come back).
- Magic - Spells, curses, hexes.. etc.. Think witch powers.. blood magic etc. At this time we are not opening up "MAGIC"(There will be at least one character on sim that can do this for story line purposes. If you have any questions or perhaps a unique story line that would use magic like this please contact an admin.

MAKING CHANGES TO POWERS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN WRITTEN UP
Did you imagine that power working in a different way from what is written? Let us know your ideas. If the power ability within the power is works we will add it as a subsection to a preexisting power.
- In the PLAYER Application included the power you want NAME OF POWER:ADDON
- in the comment section you will write you are wanting to make an addition to the power be detailed.
- You will apply for the addition using the Special Powers Application. (Look under special applications for more specifics of how to write it up.
- The Admin will ask for changes if needed and add the new addition to the power onto the websites.
An example of this would be in the Water Element Power. You wanted to do something different with the water element than listed on the website. You simply apply for that change.
