Audition Guidelines
The Genies Decree āCOMMUNITY FIRSTā This may be an unpopular rule, but it’s one I’m going to ask our members to adhere by. We ask that members be kind to members, inside and outside the group, this is crucially important to the dynamics of the characters we collaborate with in stories and comfort of our writers within the group. Not everyone has to like each other and not everyone needs to be friends, but we do ask everyone to be kind.
Members will be removed for unkind out of character rp.me status’s toward any member or writer in the community, unkind discord messages aimed at any member or writer in the community, authoring or participating in bulletins about writers. We have a zero tolerance policy for making members or writers feel unwanted or targeted in servers or on the site.
These actions had negative impacts on both writers and groups. We ask out members to better than the worst treatment they have received, not to participate in retaliation, to rise above negativity, and be a positive force in our community. It’s not easy work, but it improves the morale of your servers and community tenfold. The success of every group relies on its ability to retain and recruit talent and that can only be done with a great group of friendly, welcoming writers.
We want to foster a friendly, muse focused group, and have world building be everyone’s main focus, through writing, creating, or editing. āCharacter Banterā In our server please remember while our characters might be villian’s we do not always need to act villainous toward other characters when bantering. Avoid consistent aggressive banters with other characters. Try to embrace humor to balance out your characters banter, to avoid consistent and confrontational in character attacks. For example, Katherine doesn’t always need to be attacked, and Klaus doesn’t always need to attack. Find creative ways to show kindness to other characters and sprinkle it into your banter.
If at any time you feel uncomfortable or unhappy with your experience as a member or experience with another member please reach out in your private staff channels or to an owner. āPOACHING MEMBERSā Love the dynamics of a server you’re in? Super into a writer you’ve met through a server?
Avoid asking writers from one RPG or Server to come join your RPG or Server as the same character. If you’re not friends with a member, don’t talk with, don’t write with a member, please don’t only approach a member to ask them to join your group if that is the only dialogue you are going to have with them. Respect the servers you’re in, the hard process of recruitment owners go through to enlist new writers, and work diligently at you’re own recruitment incentives.
Add members from your RPG, post your most wanted banner, and let writers decide for themselves. Do not message Three Wish Members or members of other RPGS and say, "Hey want to join ....." or "I really like you’re writing, come audition for my group." or "Our group really needs a . . . want to write in our group too?" āBE ORIGINALā It’s important to be original in your work, to cite and credit artists for their use of resources, and be innovative in your writing. āAVOID PLAGARISMā We ask our writers to respect other writers inside and out of the group, and not plagiarize others ideas for storylines, or roleplay groups.
If you are experiencing difficulties coming up with an idea for a storyline, a roleplay group, characters biography, or au aspects for your character please reach out to our owner Caroline Forbes and she will assist you. It’s better to ask for help then take from others. If you’re going to use others work including: psds, templates, or premades, please credit the artist that created these resources for you.
Writers work incredibly hard to think outside the box, let’s support our writers by complimenting their work not duplicating their original their work. Artists spend their valuable time creating resources, show your appreciation by crediting their work, do not steal, copy, or share their work. āRESPECT PRIVCYā Please respect the privacy of all members and do not screentshot the server to share their activity or banter within a server. The server is a haven, for our writers to create, write, and build connections in a safe space.
After you have read through the rules share a gif the character you are auditioning for and include three wishes your character would make to a Djin.

Minho
**Minho’s Acting Journey: From Idol to Leading Man**
When we think of SHINee’s Minho, the first thing that comes to mind is his undeniable charisma as a K-pop idol. With his sharp visuals, powerful stage presence, and unwavering dedication to his craft, Minho has long been a beloved figure in the world of K-pop. However, over the years, he has proven that his talents extend far beyond the stage. Minho’s transition from idol to actor has been nothing short of remarkable, showcasing his versatility and determination to grow as an artist. Today, we take a closer look at Minho’s acting journey, highlighting the key roles and performances that have solidified his status as a leading man in the Korean entertainment industry.
### **The Early Days: Stepping into Acting**
Minho’s foray into acting began while he was still actively promoting as a member of SHINee. Like many idols, he started with smaller roles, using these opportunities to hone his craft and gain experience in front of the camera. His first acting role came in 2010 with the sitcom *“Salamander Guru and The Shadows,”* where he played a supporting character. Though it was a modest start, it marked the beginning of his journey into the acting world.
In 2012, Minho took on his first leading role in the teen drama *“To the Beautiful You,”* a Korean adaptation of the popular Japanese manga *“Hana-Kimi.”* Playing the role of Kang Tae-joon, a talented high jumper with a stoic demeanor, Minho showcased his ability to portray complex emotions and connect with viewers. While the drama received mixed reviews, Minho’s performance was praised for its sincerity and charm, proving that he had the potential to grow as an actor.
### **Breaking Stereotypes: Challenging Himself with Diverse Roles**
One of the most impressive aspects of Minho’s acting career is his willingness to take on diverse and challenging roles. Rather than sticking to the “idol actor” stereotype of playing safe, pretty-boy characters, Minho has consistently pushed himself to explore different genres and characters.
In 2016, he starred in the web drama *“The Miracle,”* a heartwarming story about twin sisters who switch places. Minho played the role of a top idol, a character that could have easily been a reflection of his real-life persona. However, he brought depth and vulnerability to the role, earning praise for his ability to balance humor and emotion.
That same year, Minho made his big-screen debut in the disaster film *“Derailed,”* where he played a high school student caught in a life-threatening situation. The film allowed him to showcase a grittier, more intense side of his acting, further breaking away from his idol image.
### **A Turning Point: “Medical Top Team” and Beyond**
Minho’s role in the 2013 medical drama *“Medical Top Team”* marked a significant turning point in his acting career. Playing the role of Kim Sung-woo, a talented but arrogant surgeon, Minho held his own alongside seasoned actors like Kwon Sang-woo and Jung Ryeo-won. The drama was a challenging project, requiring him to master medical jargon and portray the emotional struggles of his character. While the drama’s ratings were modest, Minho’s performance was a clear indication of his growth as an actor.
Following this, Minho continued to take on roles that allowed him to showcase his range. In 2017, he starred in the historical film *“The Princess and the Matchmaker,”* playing a charming and witty fortune-teller. The film’s lighthearted tone and Minho’s natural charisma made it a delightful watch, further cementing his status as a versatile actor.
### **Proving His Mettle: “Hwarang” and “The Fatal Encounter”**
One of Minho’s most notable roles came in the 2016 historical drama *“Hwarang: The Poet Warrior Youth.”* Playing the role of Kim Soo-ho, a skilled warrior with a tragic past, Minho delivered a performance that was both powerful and nuanced. The drama, which also starred Park Seo-joon and Park Hyung-sik, was a hit with viewers, and Minho’s portrayal of Soo-ho earned him widespread acclaim. His ability to convey both strength and vulnerability in the role showcased his maturity as an actor.
In 2020, Minho took on another historical role in the film *“The Fatal Encounter,”* where he played King Jeongjo’s loyal bodyguard. The film’s intense action scenes and emotional depth allowed Minho to further demonstrate his acting chops, proving that he could handle both physical and emotional challenges with ease.
### **Recent Success: “Yumi’s Cells” and Beyond**
In recent years, Minho has continued to impress audiences with his acting skills. In 2021, he joined the cast of the popular webtoon-based drama *“Yumi’s Cells,”* playing the role of Yoo Babi, a kind and considerate co-worker who becomes a love interest for the protagonist. Minho’s portrayal of Babi was praised for its warmth and sincerity, making him a fan favorite. His chemistry with co-star Kim Go-eun added depth to the story, and his performance was a testament to his ability to bring charm and authenticity to his roles.
Most recently, Minho starred in the 2023 drama *“The Fabulous,”* a series that delves into the glamorous yet cutthroat world of the fashion industry. Playing the role of Ji Woo-min, a passionate and ambitious PR agency employee, Minho once again showcased his versatility, effortlessly balancing the drama’s comedic and emotional moments.
### **What Sets Minho Apart?**
Minho’s success as an actor can be attributed to his dedication, humility, and willingness to learn. Unlike some idol-turned-actors who rely solely on their looks or popularity, Minho has consistently worked to improve his craft. He has taken on a wide range of roles, from historical warriors to modern-day romantics, and has approached each project with a level of professionalism and passion that has earned him respect in the industry.
Moreover, Minho’s ability to connect with audiences on an emotional level sets him apart. Whether he’s playing a stoic warrior or a lovelorn office worker, he brings a sense of authenticity to his characters that makes them relatable and memorable.
### **Looking Ahead: The Future of Minho’s Acting Career**
As Minho continues to take on new challenges, there’s no doubt that his acting career will only continue to flourish. With each role, he proves that he is more than just an idol—he is a talented and versatile actor capable of captivating audiences in any genre. Fans eagerly anticipate his future projects, confident that he will continue to deliver performances that inspire and entertain.
Minho’s journey from idol to leading man is a testament to his hard work, determination, and passion for his craft. As he continues to evolve as an actor, one thing is certain: the world has only seen the beginning of what Minho is capable of. Whether on stage or on screen, he is a true artist, and his story is far from over.

His willingness to take risks and push boundaries has inspired countless other idols and fans to embrace their own unique styles. In a genre often criticized for its homogeneity, Key’s individuality has been a breath of fresh air.
Moreover, Key’s impact isn’t limited to South Korea. His fashion sense has garnered attention on a global scale, earning him features in international fashion magazines and invitations to prestigious fashion events like Paris Fashion Week. He has become a symbol of how K-pop idols can transcend their musical careers to become influential figures in the global fashion industry.
### **Key’s Fashion Philosophy**
At the heart of Key’s fashion evolution is a simple yet powerful philosophy: wear what makes you happy. Throughout his career, Key has emphasized the importance of self-expression and individuality. He often shares his fashion inspirations and tips with fans, encouraging them to experiment with their own styles and not be afraid to stand out.
In interviews, Key has spoken about how fashion is a form of art and a way to communicate who he is to the world. This mindset has allowed him to continuously evolve and reinvent his style, keeping it fresh and exciting year after year.
### **What’s Next for Key?**
As Key continues to grow as an artist and fashion influencer, there’s no doubt that his style will keep evolving. Whether he’s experimenting with new trends, collaborating with top designers, or inspiring fans with his bold choices, Key remains at the forefront of fashion innovation.
For fans and fashion enthusiasts alike, Key’s journey is a reminder that fashion is more than just clothes—it’s a way to tell your story, express your identity, and make a statement. And if there’s one thing we can count on, it’s that Key will always keep us guessing, inspiring, and eagerly awaiting his next fashion move.
**Final Thoughts**
Key’s fashion evolution is a testament to his creativity, confidence, and unwavering commitment to self-expression. From his early days as a daring idol to his current status as a global fashion influencer, Key has proven that true style knows no boundaries.

- I offer respect fairly freely; lose it and it will be very hard to get back.
- I do not write anything sexual or erotic in nature.
- I am single-ship/single-LI, but am not looking, nor will I actively look.
- Romance comes with chemistry IC and trust OOC. This character is heterosexual.
- I will not add: "only males", "S&L"(or anything of that sort), profiles with just character names, or young children
- This character has killed, and will do so without hesitation if his family is in danger
- I have only seen one season of Arrow. I did not enjoy it enough to continue: ie, there’s a partial reason I don’t use Amell as Ollie.
- I will delete your OOC premades if they are excessively long, hard to read, or rude.
- I read profiles. A rarity, I know.
- No, I won’t read 10 blogs, a google doc, or sign anything to write with you. I’m not starting a new job with the Union here lol
Yeah, it’s likely no one will read these because no one reads on this site anymore. Don’t sign this, it’s weird people ask for that. and tbh if you do sign, you really weren’t reading. Anyways, my "hard to read" one is because I’m fully colorblind, so I cannot see all your pretty colors.
