We currently have two active avatars doing plots in myself and Loki, though RL seems to have snagged him the last week or so, plus one in the wings working on some stuff behind the scenes. I announced last night that I'd be trying a month long trial starting this weekend. The idea is simply to build great stories, develop characters and try to allow players to finally impact the game again.

I do have a few guidelines since I'll be spending a ton of time doing this.

Stats/skills/deities/alignments will all need to be RPed and there will be IG consequences for continued abuse of such things like allying with enemy worshipers of your god if you're a priest or rolling CG and acting CE. That doesn't mean exceptions can't exist, just have sound reasoning and let one of us know so we can help if it is something that will fit with our current environment.

During this month I'll help people achieve some of the goals of their characters. They can be new characters or existing characters, whichever is fine. What I require to aid in this is no alting during the month and an email with what character you are going to play, plus some of their personal goals/motivations etc. Also perhaps what you'd want to accomplish or having been wanting to try and impact.

The idea isn't for me to just toss plots at you, but to do stuff that you're interested in, that your character is interested in. However, to do this consistently and to make it enjoyable for myself as much as you, I need some consistency in the characters I'm interacting with. I'm hoping this is so much fun we can continue this after the month, but if it doesn't work we can abandon it after the month. I've already had 5 players agree to do it, what I'm hoping is some of the people not playing will jump in too!

Also anyone rolling or playing good will get a gold star as I'm trying to entice players into rebuilding it as it has lacked characters for a long time. I'll be aiding you a great deal and maybe even tossing some lady luck your way.

Im here, just some other things are taking priority over the plot... Though everyone seems to have gone on to new characters.. I think there was some burnout after the rooks, too much too long ;p
