World Building
New Plots. New Locations. New Races. New Events
In General:
A lot of the site's details are left intentionally vague. We do not say how many provinces are in Gardenia or who leads them. We do not say who is on the council in Asnor. We do not say how many tribes exist in Kagano or Medina. We also do not list all of the towns or places in these countries. Members are free to invent locations and stories for those locations as they please. You are also able to influence parts of the major site story.
The staff will not track down every member and see whether their story coincide with all the others. Members are free to create their own stories. Those stories that stand out may be advertised though. They might be acknowledged. Then, even if those stories are going in a different direction from the site, those events might be recognized as the absolute canon for the site.
This is to say that the plot of the site develops as the characters on site develop. Each member can have a role to play in establishing where the site is headed. At the same time, if people want to do small group plots or stories that are sectioned off from the rest of the site, all the power to them.
Below is some information on how to get new boards and subboards added to the site.
New Countries:
Gardenia, Asnor, Medina and Ciredia are the major countries in this world. That does not mean they are the only countries. Members are free to refer to their own, original countries. If you wish to have an original country please be vague about where it is and its influence in the world. The country cannot be the most powerful or largest. You also cannot say it is connected to Asnor or anything like that. Information like that has to be decided by the staff and site. But if you keep it vague, you can do what you want.
For an original country to get a board there needs to be five characters that have threaded in that country.
New Subboards:
These are locatiosn in one of the locations that already exist on site. To have a subboard added to a location there will need to be at least three threads in that location. After that condition has been met, talk with one of the site admins.
New Boards:
New boards may be added in the same way as subboards. However, it is just as likely that we will make them subboards instead of main boards. There is another path to getting main boards, main locations, added though. Members are free to suggest locations to the site admins. If we like one, we will add it. There are no thread requirements in this case.
New Guilds:
Like the Mage Guild, the Knight Guild, the Thieves Guild, etc. To have a new guild added there will need to be three or more characters that are part of that guild. We can then give the guild a member group.
New Guild and Group Boards:
There needs to be five characters in a guild or group before they can have a Guild or Group plot board. Contact one of the site admins when you have met this condition.
New Events:
Members that have idea for major and minor site events can send them to the site admins. Just be warned that if we use your idea we may make changes to it.
Destroying Stuff:
Before attacking a town or location please talk to one of the site admins. We will look at the activity and plots in that location before deciding whether to allow the attack. As for one group attacking another group, we will leave that up to those groups.
