Oh Dear...

[Ruxandra Cordelia]

So unfortunately I suffer from not knowing what the heck to do...
Dx I'm kind of a newbie when it comes to Doctor Who and this site confuses the heck out of me...
Any advice that some of you regular RPers could give me would be fantastic...

Are we aloud to create our own characters or do we have to pick on the is one the show or what...

[The Fifth Doctor]

You can make your own character, or pick from characters on the show.
Sorry, forgot to introduce myself.
Hi! I'm Charlie!

Dear Ruxandra

Because you are not very familiar with Doctor Who yet, I do recommend you create your own character. This fiction can hold a huge range of characters, so you can be almost anyone you want.

First, I recommend reading the rules so you have some sense of what is expected in a post and how we try to treat each other OOC. No need to sign this yet.

If you need still more information, I recommend cruising the accepted applications you can find here, just to see what other people are doing.
whoniverse-rp.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=characterdirectory

To see what threads are being written in quiet a bit lately and see who is posting regularly, I recommend clicking on "New Topics" up at the top left of any page with the star.

To start a character submission, follow this link.

It's okay if your submission isn't perfect. The Moderators around here (I am not a moderator) can help you smooth out the details if your character needs to be modified to fit into the Whoniverse.

Hope to see you around. Feel free to write me, or post here if you have more questions. Or you can also post questions here as well.

If you are fresh and new. Take it slow and ask players to slow down if they go to fast. Or try to do a slow thread if you can.

[Ruxandra Cordelia]

Thank you! I appreciate the replies and advice. I half expected this to be ignored...

I suppose I'll make my own character and start off in a slow thread.

And once I get started if anyone wants to give me pointers and stuff after I have begun posting it would be much appreciated :3 I love critasism.
