Okay.. i´ve seen so far some Characters Portrayed as Animals, or sons of another character, or even babies... So the only question i have (before i create a character of that kind and maybe break some rules) is the types of characters that there can be. I mean, You can be "Everything" you like?, or there are some limits, or something?

I´ve tried to look my answer on other topics, but so far, i havent succeded... so.. thats why im creating a new post

Your character can identify as anything, but (s)he has to be an adult human as far as I can tell.

http://wiki.cantr.net/index.php/Game_Ru ... Guidelines
Cantr characters are human, or as human as they can be as dictated by the game mechanics. That still leaves a great deal open to interpretation by the players. This is not intended to start an inquisition against characters that may be considered human with exotic features (odd hair colors, deformities, genetic diseases, etc.) This is meant to give the PD a platform to stop 8-armed giants and other such extremes.

For babies:
Characters are spawned as 20 year olds and your characters are free to see them as emotional immature/mentally impaired.

Relationships are roleplayed in this social simultator and are allowed. There is only one restriction: characters of the same player cannot form a family because that would go against the Capital Rule.

And for animals, the GAB has decided that characters cannot be animals. The ones you might encounter were created before this ruling and are allowed since the decision was taken after their creation.

A character has to be human, but of course they can be a human who thinks they are an animal. So they can act like an animal, but mustn't describe their body as an animal's one and e.g. can't fly or run as fast as a gepard.

And can't force on other characters to view and treat them as not human above 20 years old.
