Due to a recent question, we've added some more clarification on the rules regarding character duplicates and canon!AU characters! Here's the information that has been added to the Rules/FAQ page:
Are duplicate characters allowed?Additionally, information about how tags for AU characters work has been added to the FAQ under the same area that the other directions are, but we will still continue to provide you with your tag upon acceptance so that's less to worry about. :) The information added is as follows:
Yes and no. There cannot be three main storyline Zachary Quinto Spocks from Star Trek (2009). However, if there is a canon-AU and a canon-main storyline within a series, such as in the Star Trek (2009) films, both of the characters would be available to play. In this example, Leonard Nimoy old!Spock and Zachary Quinto young!Spock would be considered both playable in Genessia. The same would be for a character like Willow Rosenberg from Buffy the Vampire Slayer- vampire!Willow from The Wish can exist as a character and so can Willow from the main storyline. We are only accepting one AU version of a character at a time for now. Duplicates from different series are allowed. So if someone wanted to play Tidus from FFX and Tidus from KH, both would be allowed in the game because they are considered separate characters.
If the character is a canon-AU version of the character, the tag will be the character's name plus "(au)." So if you played Dr. Light from CW's The Flash from Earth 2, your tag would be "linda park (au)" UNLESS there was also a Linda Park from the comics in the game as well! In which case, the tag would be "linda park (cwflash/au)." Which sounds really complicated, but don't worry! When you comment the taken list, a mod will respond with the correct tag you should be using for your character. If it needs to change at any point, we will convert the tag and notify you of the change ASAP.Let us know if you have any questions about this or if anything is unclear!
