*Post your questions below! This will be updated regularly!* Rules are HERE Ranking system HERE Our latest AMA is HERE
Welcome Snacklings! Here's a guide for starting out:
X-- Read the rules [x]! Always important thing to do before you do something else
X-- Rp Rules and Requests: Writing [x] | Art [x]
X-- Make an intro [x] for yourself!
X-- Make a sona
O-- What is a sona and any guidelines how can I make one? [x]
O-- Sona's have to be <200 | Include a flame located somewhere on their person
O-- Sample character thread [x]
X-- Secondary sonas (explained here [x] and was discussed here [x] )
X-- Don't want to? Discussion threads are good places to talk! The board is right here [x]
Below is our nice big, more detailed FAQ + numerous questions answered about the forum! Last update: 1/22
"....Sooo what do we do now?"
You do the thing.
"How do I attach a picture to the threads when uploading?"
Either copy a image URL from a 3rd party (tumblr, imgur, online screenprint) or drag the image box text to upload right from your soul- ahem, system.
How do I make a cultsona!?
YOU JUST DO IT! Cultsona's can be anything or anyone! human, creature, spirit, Just keep them original~ Use your own personal quirks and interests to your advantage and be sure to check out other members 'sonas to avoid overlapping of designs/ skills. The hood is the only part of our 'uniform' but that too can be adjusted to your liking and outfit
I'm not a confident artist but still wish to make a Cultsona! Is this still possible?
You bet your ever loving flame you can! If you are a writer then introduce you character through story or RP. Note: Rping with peoples cultsona's on the forum requires having one yourself.
So cultsonas can be any medium?
Yup!
How do I start a RP or make friends here?
First, be sure check out the RP rules. You can ask in the general chat if anyone is interested in creating one, from there either of you can make a thread and go from there. RPing is a great way to find others who want to share a story or idea with you and who knows, maybe something special will come out of it. There's always the volcano sacrifices if it doesn't work out <3
Why Snickerdoodles?
We don't talk about those here.
What universe is The Candle Cult set in?
Can we RP with our cultsonas?
Please do! This is how your character is brought to life! Find a partner in the chat or general discussion and go crazy! (but not too crazy, we have Grey for that)
What is Hypermode?
So, is anybody gonna explain the "hyper" or "overpowered" mode? Or should we wait a bit longer? Hypermode is basically what happens when you use both of your abilities (one gained before joining the cult and the one gained after) at once. It's unleashing all your power at once, and you only have one form of it. Beware a Chandelier or Candelabrum that has unleashed it's hyper mode. Fusions and Hypermode: Discussion [x]. Answer [x]
Flame soul explanation: [x]
Canon worldbuilding info: [x]

Is there a specific setting to this cult? Like where it's based? Are we a cult in Gravity Falls? Or in a forest in Norway? Or a country-wide network? What???

Is there a specific setting to this cult? Like where it's based? Are we a cult in Gravity Falls? Or in a forest in Norway? Or a country-wide network? What??? The cult is based in a world that has been long seeped in magic. For thousands of years it has been common place to toss around easy spells, quick ones to clean your windows or make a pen move. However that is a practice that has long since begun to bleed out of the abilities of humanity and only a select few can now perform even the simplest of spells. Those few are considered special and looked upon with awe.
But the even smaller number who can perform stronger magic, terrible great acts of it that rock the very earth itself are feared and seen as outcasts.
This is a world where monsters lurk in the shadows because the light has long since considered them abominations. Where those with gifts hide in order to survive. Where they gather together under one banner, the banner of a flickering flame in the darkness. The only light that is kind to them.
That of a candle.
So no dear we aren't based out of Gravity Falls but in our own separate world setting that is still growing and developing. You could consider it a modern setting in a world very like our own, same countries and what not but with a vastly different history that is practically teeming with magic. Aside from that our main base is underneath a candle shop tucked away in a city, somewhere between down town and the suburbs. A great fortress stretching underground for miles only to occasionally stretch back up to the surface into buildings that appear abandoned at first glance only to hold secret places just for us. We have exits leading up and out and into the forest that surrounds our city and its people which is why sometimes the denizens feel as if they're being watched by hundreds of eyes when they get to close. Crossover fics and art are more then welcome however and please do not feel shy about writing or drawing what you wish or asking any questions about this world that you might have. I hope this helped you out dear.

So go nuts with that.

Why are Snickerdoodles banned permanently now? Problem sneers at the very mention and the shadows around her feet shudder and hiss. "We don't talk about those, things, here dear." She says coldly.

Beg pardon, but can the cultsona's artwork be in any format or is there a specific one to follow? This goes for art medium as well

I'll add an explanation for hyper mode and a few more restrictions on the general Cultsonas explanation post. Artwork can be in any format and medium

Nah, I meant the "hyper mode" thing. They haven't said anything on that, have they?
