Some concepts and characters are unobtainable at Multiverse Crisis MUSH. This is an overview, not a comprehensive list, of what and why.
- Completely straight portrayals of real people and religious figures. Exceptions may apply to fictionalized versions of such characters, like Dracula, but straight-up applying for Abraham Lincoln or Jesus won't fly.
- Comedy/Gag/Adult Series. Duke Nukem, Futurama, Space Balls, Family Guy, Simpsons, ATHF, Leisure Suit Larry, etc. These just don't fit the tone. They're either too sex oriented, too crude, or too cartoony.
- Disney, Mercedes Lackey, Pern, Steve Jackson Games, George R. R. Martin works, and possibly others are unavailable due to copyright issues.
- Concepts that require absolute primacy over setting to function are banned. The Sandman's Endless being the only existing example. Most Gods do NOT fall under this category.
- If YOU as a player cannot wrap your head around a character being defeatable by other PCs, you don't get to play that character.
Patch Notes: MMOs are pending being removed from the banned list. This is still tentative, and will not go into force until July 12th or when an announcement is made, whichever is later. (Yes, whichever is later. We may need to make some adjustments to this change between then and now.)
