Character Creation and Rules

Character Creation

Step one: Think of a house and name for your character. If you want to be an heir to a house please PM admin for permission. Otherwise any house in the seven Kingdoms is eligible.

Step Two: Write out a brief description of your character; what he or she looks like, what hair and eye color they have, and the like.

Step Three: Write out a background for your character. Now remember it will not be too long as all of our characters are very young. No character can be older then seventeen. And all must be fostered in the Hightower household at the time of character creation.

Step Four: Remember that most of you will know one another from having been raised in this household. So please pick five adjectives that would be used to describe your character's personality. For example: Persnickety, Wise, Calm, Wild, Defiant, Dominant, Slow, Crab-Like, Quick, Dense, or Stout.

Step Five: Pick two skills at the Beginner level. These can be any two skills you want your character to be good at. For Example; Swords, Sneaking, Dancing, Riding, Trading, Arithmetic, or Juggling.

You may Now post your Character in the Character creation thread. Start playing after you have posted, if there is an error, I can fix it as you play.

Rules

Gameplay: This is a Role Playing game, so the primary goal of the game is to create a character and interact it with other characters. In the course of the game people may come into opposition. Now it is always allowed for two players to agree to a conclusion to any opposition between their two characters.

However, either player is also allowed to request the opposition be determined by the Admin. One player must simply PM the admin with a link to the thread.

The admin will then examine the thread for any situational modifiers. Then the Admin will examine the skills of each character and apply any appropriate skills. Then the Admin will notify the players by either posting in the appropriate thread or by PMing them if a reaction, or further information is needed.

In addition Scenarios may be written to advance the character plot. A scenario is a written scene about one or more characters and should effect either the character or the game world in some way. These can be used to add new skills to your character or to train up the skills you already have.

Skills will only have three levels at the current time because of the youth of all the characters. Beginner, Novice and Trained.
