ABOUT RAGE
RAGE is a roleplay based e-federation; we’ve been open since September 9, 2014 and have built a quality roster that is dedicated to and thoroughly enjoying the product we produce. We currently have four separate title belts:
RAGE Championship: This is the equivalent of our World Title.
Anger Management: This is our second tier title that is for folks who are on the brink of entering the RAGE Championship hunt.
FURY Championship: This is a hardcore title.
HOSTILITY Championship: This is a unique title belt; the belt can be held by one person or a tag team, or even a stable as it is currently held by Iron Curtain Inc. The belt utilizes freebird rules in which any holder of the belt can defend it at any given time. It’s a fun belt that provides tons of unique possibilities storyline/angle wise.
We currently have three separate shows and have one pay per view monthly. The shows are as follows:
Anger Management: This is our flagship show and is a weekly occurrence; roleplay deadlines for the show are Monday at Noon Central Standard Time and the show is posted on Tuesdays with the card for the next Anger Management posted the same day.
War Games: War Games is a bi-weekly show that features typically two matches; the premise of War Games is simple, as it is an on-going tournament in which the victor will obtain a contract that allows them to challenge the RAGE Champion for their belt at any given time. Should you hold the contract, you have to use it by the time the subsequent tournament is complete, otherwise you forfeit the contract and you must let ownership know you wish to cash it in prior to the card being posted. Why, you ask? It’s simple. The only way to cash in your contract and WIN the RAGE Championship is to out roleplay the champion that week. This doesn’t mean you need to face them, in fact, most of the time you wouldn’t be facing them but rather someone else. If you were to defeat them, I would write a scene in the show in which you would challenge them to a match that would begin instantly, and you’d defeat them because you posted a better roleplay that week. This contract is a way to keep the RAGE Champion on their toes at all times, but also gives the entire roster a shot at glory. If you’re booked on War Games, you won’t be booked on Anger Management so that you still only have one roleplay to post in any given week.
Rage Academy of Wrestling or RAW: The Rage Academy of Wrestling is where ALL individuals who join RAGE will start out. It is a bi-weekly show that is equivalent to a “house” show, but is written as a reality television series. This is something that is unique and hasn’t really ever been done in e-fedding, so far as I’ve seen. The point of RAW is for me to gain a better understanding of your characters so that when you move up to Anger Management I can book you and angle you appropriately. RAW is also a great place for handlers in the fed to “try out” new characters, giving them a place to flesh one out that they may want to eventually bring up to Anger Management. We do have handlers who control more than one character at RAGE and should you end up with two guys (which is the max) on the main show, I won’t ever double book you; you’ll instead alternate weeks with your characters, however you WILL have to roleplay twice for pay per views, as both characters will be booked.
RAGE prides itself on consistency, quality, dedication and the ability to conduct one selves properly. There are no arguments, losing complaints or disputes in RAGE. The community is like a family, welcoming new comers in and treating them like they've been there the entire time.
My name is Josh and I'm the owner, creator and fed head of the RAGE. I've been doing this for years and still enjoy it very much. It is my job to write the shows, book the matches, decide the results and create all storylines/write all scenes. Yes, that’s right, I handle ALL storylines and scenes, which means all you’re required to do is roleplay! It’s easy! And it’s suspenseful, because you never know what kind of swerve I may throw at you to play off of. I make it a point to build your character based off your work, and with me writing the scenes and storylines, it gives you an opportunity to do the same. It also helps alleviate the requirements of a handler, though I do request match writing help weekly, so if you enjoy writing matches then that’s a huge help to me.
RAGE creates posers for it's roster members once they've been with us long enough to earn one. We don't use picture bases, micro's or sprites. Regardless of how in depth your description of your character is, I can promise you I’ll run into situations where I may not be able to accommodate EVERYTHING you want in a character; that said, I’m extremely proud of my work and believe the quality of what I create stands for itself. You won’t be disappointed.
Being that RAGE is a roleplay based federation, your wins will be determined based on how you match up against your opponent. Roleplays are graded on the following parameters: Creativity, Character Development, Storyline Focus, Match Focus. Match focus, or shoot, has the highest weight in the grading, however with as competitive as our federation is, you’ll need to really do well in the other categories because more often than not, they decide the matches. We have a stellar roster, and ALL of them are excellent writers. You may lose quite a bit in RAGE, and that doesn’t mean you’re a bad writer; what that means is we have a stellar roster, and one that will make you better. I challenge you to do so.

What We’re Looking For
RAGE is looking for dedicated, reliable, consistent members who show up when they say they will and who are interested in being apart of a federation run like RAGE. RAGE is a different style of e-fed than some may be used to but that will be explained in more detail below. If you're looking to join a reliable, friendly, fair and enjoyable federation then we are likely the place for you.
Differences
RAGE doesn't expect or require handlers to write their own scenes or storylines. I personally write all scenes for results and create nearly all storylines. Whether I create the stories on my own or take the lead from someone with an idea, RAGE surprises those on it's roster with new twists, turns and angles to keep them on their toes and having fun. Why do most e-feds require you to write your angles or know exactly what your character is doing? Wouldn't it be more fun to have someone who understands your character, who can learn your character by your roleplays, surprise you with interesting feuds, angles and directions? Would you like to mix and match? If you can give me an idea and let me run it for you, bouncing off you as you do my results or you can just let me go ahead and do what I do. Either way, you'll have a lot of fun. This method is tried and tested; No-one is forgotten or looked over and everyone who roleplays gets themselves a scene/storyline.
Website Functionality
RAGE offers a crisp and clean, often updated website that caters to all your needs. Handlers are required to sign up to the website so that they can post their roleplays directly to it, using a word press posting system that also stores drafted roleplays and allows you to catalogue your posts.
The home page is full of a slew of content for viewers to enjoy, but the devil is in the details.
Each kind of show has it’s own separate page which will house the latest cards, show history, it’s archives, as well as a slider with rendered images from previous shows. I make it a point to render at least two or three action shots per show, giving users a visual of what too place.
Roster pages are fully functional, including any and all information you could ever need on a member of the roster. It gives you their biography, their move sets, their match history and outcomes, as well as a catalogue of all previous roleplays written so that you can go back and learn more about them. All roster members have access to their roster pages from their dashboard after logging in so that they may make adjustments as required.
I firmly believe our shows are some of the best looking out there, with a custom design to really make them “pop”.
On the front page, you’ll notice a “twitter” feed that is actually called propaganda; Propaganda is an idea that will allow you to access our social media by simply signing in to the website. All handlers will have an avatar of their Poser and will be able to sign in, find the Propaganda tab and post directly to it, just like they would Twitter.
I can tell you, without doubt, that RAGE will provide you an enjoyable experience with an extremely friendly and loyal community. I can promise you on time results, decent compelling storylines and competitive matches against opponents who wish you the best of luck and mean it. I can promise you quality graphics, web design and functionality.
As long as you conduct yourself properly, be friendly, be active and be consistent, you'll find us to be an extremely enjoyable e-fed.
So why not check us out? If we're the kind of fed you're looking for or even if we're not, give us a try, you may just like what you see.
