Welcome new member to our Role Play Forum - Tialka Tribe!
I bet you're wondering what on earth Tialka Tribe is, no?
Well, here is the place to find out!
This is a short FAQ, which will hopefully give you all the answers you need to get started.
Remember, if you have any questions of your own after reading, feel free to add your
own in a new post below, which the admin team will happily answer.

Who Originally Created Tialka Tribe?
Well, Tialka Tribe was created by Chelsea, who goes by the alias of Hiruko, many a year ago, and has been developed in several incarnations over that time. It mainly started off on a Neopets guild idea, spanning off into a Piczo Role Play Site in 2008.
Finally in 2009, Tialka Tribe was given its new home here on Proboards, co-created and developed by Hiruko with her two other friends: Mira and Seirei. Thus the admin team and our role play site was born.
Okay, then. But what is Tialka Tribe all about?
Well, it's basically about the Founders, and what happens after they create the world of Tialka. All characters are animalistic (though may change in the future), and come from different planets. It's just about them and how they live out their lives, and how they face any dangers that come hurtling around the corner.
Wait - so it's a sort of story, then?
Well, in a way. We started this venture to be able to create ideas, characters and plot points to develop the original idea that was created all those years ago. Not only is the plot expressed through role play on this site, but it is also being told through fiction - both fan-fiction on Fiction Press from Mira and our Creator Hiruko is currently working on a novel.
Can I read it?
Yes, in several formats.
On this role play site specifically, you may wish to familiarise yourself with the Legends of Lacina board, which are the stories of how Tialka began, by following this link -> Legends of Lacina
You can also find the story on Mira's Fiction Press by following this link -> Fan-Fic.
If you are interested in Hiruko's novel, which is a sort of prequel for her own character then feel free to visit the thread about it by following the link -> Torakan Novel
Right. So what animals am I allowed to use?
Any.
Really?!
Yes. Really.
Can they have powers?
Yes, only if you want to of course. If your character does have a power, make sure that it does not overshadow the Founders' powers, seeming as they are the top of the food-chain so to speak. If you are unsure of whether a power is suitable, feel free to PM an admin, or just post a question below.
How many characters am I allowed to have?
A maximum of TWO per email address. Please make sure that if you do have another character, please keep it "alive" rather than creating it and not doing much with it. If you exceed this limit, your newest one will be deleted. If you desperately want to exceed the limit and create yet another, you may ask one of the admin team for permission, if you think the new character will positively add to the plot.
Additionally, we would prefer you to create separate accounts for each character. This is to prevent confusion - people could see your Uusername, think it's one character, and then possibly misunderstand when you describe a different character. This is not compulsory, but do consider it.
Can anyone get a crystal from the Crystal Caverns, and put it in Skalakruh?
I'm afraid not. One must be accompanied by a Founder/admin, most notably Mira (only she can traverse the tunnel to the cavern). When one has the crystal, they are taken to Skalakruh where they are asked three questions. That's why they can't do it alone.
If our characters are animals and they can talk, does that mean all other creatures in Tialka can talk too?
This was discussed between us and we decided (so your characters don't starve if they're carnivorous) that Tialka is split up into animals who are 'intelligent' and have been given the power of speech and thought, and the other animals who are ordinary and can therefore be hunted.
Okay, cool. I'll let you know if I have any more questions, but is there one thing I really need to know before I go?
Yes -
