In order to have your AU idea up and considered, please refer to the rules and conditions below:
Below, you will find the template you should use in order to create a new AU proposal. Otherwise, please contact one of the Admins if you have any further questions.
- To propose a new AU, please make a new thread in the "Proposed AU" sub-board and put your AU name as its title and follow the proposed AU template to help be more organized and less cluttered.
- Any posts after his initial one should be used to address questions and clarify anything that the other members may bring up regarding it. It shall also act as a sort of mini/initial plotting activity. Please be prepared for and open to feedback, alteration suggestions, loophole pointing-out, etc. It's only offered (not just by us admins but by your fellow RPers) to help smooth out the AU and make it run more efficiently.
- In order for an AU to be approved, at least 5 people must show interest in it, and respond to the thread stating so.
- Once five or more people have shown interest in participating in an AU, and the information regarding said AU has been finalized, an admin (preferrably Iso) must be contacted and informed so that we can take the information from the proposal thread and create the AU in the appropriate boards.

[b]AU Name:[/b] [font size="1"](what is the name of your alternate universe/crossover?)[/font]
[b]Warning:[/b] (Is there any potention for this AU to explore darker themes? Or Innuendo or something really crazy? Let us know and we'll put up a warning for it --or it can be a silly warning. See the AUs Overviews for examples)
[b]Plot or Explanation of AU:[/b]
[font size="1"](What’s going on here? Are the characters just going to be cats or is there something more? This can be edited later as more feedback is received, but PLEASE make sure it’s up to date before contacting any admins for approval!)[/font]
[b]Additional Information:[/b]
[font size="1"](Anything to add like helpful links or images?)[/font]
[b]Possible sub-boards:[/b]
[font size="1"](What sort of places will your AU have? For example, for a Pirate AU, one may have sub-boards for the Sea, Land, Ships, or Most Popular Tavern where members can create threads. PLEASE keep this rather simple. We don’t want a lot of places and if there are a lot, then we may cut or combine them)[/font]
[b]Mini-Profile Specifics:[/b] [font size="1"](Not all AUs are the same, therefore, not all mini-profiles should be the same. Please add/omit any sections/fields and definitions to the character template below that will be specific to your proposed AU.)[/font]
[font size="1"][b]Name:[/b] (Sometimes people who don’t be siblings will change their last name….besides Names are good)
[b]Age:[/b] (in human years since it’s not Nationverse!)
[b]Appearance:[/b](clothes, physical appearance, items etc.…)[div style="text-align:left;"][b style="font-weight:bold;"]Personality Changes/Quirks:[/b](what's the difference between them normally and them in this setting? This can be done as bullets or a list rather than in paragraph form)
[b style="font-weight:bold;"]Backstory:[/b](how did they get where they are today?)
[b style="font-weight:bold;"]Relationships:[/b](Not just romantic, if they have friends or enemies, they go here too)
[b style="font-weight:bold;"]Other Things Worth mentioning:[/b](Again, it can be a bulleted list instead of a paragraph)[/div][/font]
