Shifters - OOC Information
Characters
There are no restrictions on available character races, classes or guilds outside of the normal TL restrictions. Likewise there are no restrictions on available training outside of the normal rules.
As a minimum, please email the GMs at shiftersplot@gmail.com with your character’s name, race, class/guild and a bit of background (at least why they’re coming to the dig), and we’ll go from there. The more you give us, the easier it is for us to give you ways to interact with the setting.
All new characters will be given a 2g ‘relocation allowance’ (even if they’re local) for joining the dig.
Briefs, Games and Debriefs Timings
- Players will be confirmed to play either Friday night or early Saturday (ideally by midnight on Friday). Players that have been confirmed should be in kit and battleboarded by 12:30
- You can sign up after the confirmation deadline, but will not be confirmed to play before midday on Sunday (priority given to those of lowest rank). Where possible we will give the final say on players that haven’t been confirmed by 12:00 on Sunday to give them time to kit up.
- The monster brief will be at 12:15.
- Game start will be at 12:45. Anyone not ready at this time will get a reduced base (at least -1) unless they have let us know in advance (by 12:15 on the day) that they are going to be late. This includes wandering off to the shop, and will be applied to the GMs as well.
- Anyone signing up to play or monster then not showing up on the day without letting us know by phone, text or responsible adult will be subject to a negative after their third offence. Anyone letting us know beforehand (or explaining as soon as possible afterwards in the case of injury/illness/disaster) will not receive a penalty.
In addition, the green area where briefings normally happen will be considered to be an IC area from 12 onwards.
We will be aiming to have game debriefs up by the following Wednesday night and any IC briefing up around the same time.
