Banned Concepts & Characters

While, for the most part, we of Maelstrom Earth welcome most characters and concepts, especially with a very well written application, there are certain concepts and directions that simply are not going to work for a myriad of various reasons.

Or if they could work, we don't want them to. There are characters who are simply not tenable for roleplay, such as Ego the Living Planet. There are characters who are such ridiculous parodies that they won't work (Captain Carrot, Howard the Duck). And there are some characters who are of such a dark persuasion that there is no roleplay for them that we are comfortable permitting on the game (Kilgrave, Eros the Titan).

This list is what occurred to us during the setup process and is by no means all inclusive. There are, undoubtedly, things that we simply could not anticipate. However, these are good starting points to get a feel for what we steer clear of here.
