Alternate Universe Board
Rules and Other Information
In the Alternate Universe threads you have a few options on who to play and how to play them.
One
In the AU boards, you MAY play a canon character that you don't actually play (The exception being for the few canon universes that exist within the AU), BUT you must play them from a main account (IE: a non-character account, like the one I am posting this on now). The catch is, you cannot focus all of your activity here, because these posts don't count for activity checks.
Two
There is ONE main AU board, you can play in any fan-created universe for Homestuck here. You just have to mention what kind of AU it is in either the title or the first post.
If one AU seems to be incredibly popular, we will consider adding a sub-board dedicated entirely to this AU.
Three
Posts in the AU shouldn't be made on character accounts, however if a player wishes to make an account for an AU version of a character and they play that character in canon (IE the main forum) they can. Though really who wants that many accounts?
The exception to this is in the case of canons who belong to the Midnight Crew, Felt and Exiles.
Four
Posts in the AU don't count as canon (Exception being MC/Felt and Exiles), as they exist in a seperate timeline (not the canon sort of seperate timeline either!).
Five
The AU board is the ONLY place where couples that are not canon can be played, this includes canon/OC pairings.
