What's an Alternate Character?
An alternate character is a character that you request in addition to your first one. There are a few rules around alternate characters.

Pillar (PFC) and Major (MFC) Feature Characters.
PFC and MFC characters are often very popular, and these roles are best spread out among all of our players. A player may have only one pillar feature character, such as Superman or Iron Man. A player can have at most two MFCs, or one MFC and one PFC. MFC List for a list.

Players may have five characters with the following limits:

  • Only one may be a PFC (MFC List)
  • A max of two MFC and PFC combined
  • To use the fifth slot, at least one of the five characters must be an OC, AFC, or VFC.


All other characters must be active. Players must have a 1up on all of their current characters to apply for a new one, and no characters may be idle. Using +1up/account, you can view your characters and see if they are idle. Additional information on Activity can be found at Activity.

Players may not have alts in the same groups as members, nor RP with their own alts. Use common sense here, but no character should interact with their own alt. If, for example, a team meeting was called and both your alts would need to be present, don't play both of those characters. Generally being an Ally of a group your alt is a member of is okay. See Alt Interaction for more on this.

To request an alternate character, submit a +request, such as: +request/app <charactername>=<request to create or claim here.>
