Intro How good are you on your mythology? Maybe you've heard a lil' somethin' here an' there from a couple a' TV shows, maybe even read a few books. Shoot, for all I know, myths, legends, and folklore could be the pride of your life.
Now what if I told you it was all real?
Yeah, I see you about to crack a smile there. Pretty crazy right? With all the different incarnations of the same guys, different cultures taking on the same thing, other cultures talking about something completely different, the outlandish feats some of those characters performed, and the creatures that they actually fought—dragons, witches, demons, ogres, giants, elves—none of that sounds real at all, right? Wrong.
Now I know you probably think I'm crazy now. That's alright, I thought I was at first, too. Then I saw it for myself. No, I'm not talking about some divine dream or vision or anything like that. This wasn't a near death experience. I assure you, I'm a 21 year old, normal, everyday kinda man living in Washington DC, livin' life the best way I know how, but I'm tellin' you what I saw, what I actually went through, it was all real.
I was in a world where all those things you heard about as kids in movies, picture books, and old timey folktales was real. I saw werewolves, vampires, imps, anything and everything that doesn't make sense. A giant red t-rex almost ate me for cryin' out loud. Those things are extinct, and I was almost eaten by one.
Y'know what, I don't even know why I'm typin' up this blog here. I'm sure the only people who'd believe me would be the crazies anyway. Ha, and just like that, I've alienated whatever audience I had. Oh well. I guess so this isn't a complete waste of your time, here's a lil' somethin' fo' you t'bop your head to. I guess I'm out. Peace.

Story Updates As the role play commences, I'll update this post with the happenings of everyone in short summary form, so you don't have to go reading through posts to catch up. Right now, nothing's happened, so it's just a matter of you introducing your character. If it's a Digimon, I suggest talking about how he/she made it to the human world. If it's a human, I suggest somehow incorporating that intro post into it some way. Maybe someone sent you a link to that guy's blog post and your character read it. I don't know, do whatever.

Rules Most of these are common sense things.
- No Godmodding. Don't know what that is? Now you do.
- No Auto-Hitting/Autoing. What does that mean? It's quite simple really. If you take control of another character's actions other than your own then you are autoing. It gets quite annoying when someone tells you what your character is doing without your say so, so don't do it. Just stick to the characters you bring into the RP.
- No Cybering. Cybering, also called cybersex, also called computer sex, can probably be referred to as sexting, is essentially writing out some fantasy sex encounter. We don't need that here. There's really no reason anything like that would occur in a Digimon RP to begin with so don't do it.
- Be literate. I kinda want this to be a serious role play, so no txt tlk, run your posts through a spell checker, be mindful of grammar, and try and at least put up two decent paragraphs in your posts, and that's bare minimum. I know you can do it.
- Do try and enjoy yourself. I mean, this sorta thing's supposed to be fun. If you've got some interesting plot twists you wanna implement into this, feel free to PM me or post them in the OOC thread, and we can make it happen. Think of this as a big cooperative story between us.
