About Roster Characters

This page is for pre-made characters that need a player. For those not wanting to deal with chargen, these characters provide a quick way to get into the game. These characters are staff approved.

Currently the only way to apply for a roster character is to log in and speak to staff. We are working on a way to automate this a bit, that will be announced when completed. Staff is typically available Mon - Friday 4pm - 10pm US Central time, and on weekends.

A roster character listed as 'no application required' means that when you submit to play them, we at least need your valid email address, and your available online times. This will be used to consider if your availablity fits in with the relationships of the character.

Other characters are listed as 'application required'. This is due to secrets they have, or their role in plots, or the overall theme of the character (ie, adult content). The applications require more thought on how you plan to play the character, online times, valid email, which hooks do you plan to pursue, etc.

Secrets are to be kept SECRET and are meant to be RP'ed not discussed OOCly. Secrets are not be used as OOC justification for your IC actions. In other words, Joe shouldn't OOCly tell Mary after he Icly slaps her that she has to let him get away with it "because his secret is <zot>!" Mary has every right ICly to do whatever is right for her character.

Further, if you play one of these characters there is an expectation that you play them true to the information you are given. If there is a question or complaint about a character being played appropriately, please send logs to staff so we can investigate. If the complaint bears out, that player may be removed from the character.

If you should take a roster character, and then idle out, they will be repassworded and added back to the roster for another player, if their story still makes sense for the game.

A word about these character page: These pages are non-edittable. If you play one of these characters please +request for changes to it.
