Between Events Server
Hello everyone!
The GSOM staff have put their heads together and are opening up a “soft role-playing server”. This is a discord server that will be up and running 24/7 between games for players to go and RP with one another.
This server has set locations that do not change, and the idea is that on your character sign-out you can say “I am going to spend the month in Yardsmuth!”, hop on to the server, and then RP all month long in Yardsmuth with others who are there. Each location will be one large inn room for everyone to join having both a text and a voice chat, and will not have side or private rooms.
This will be a role-play only server, so there will obviously be some restrictions. Here are a list of things you can and cannot do:
Can:
Roleplay daily life with other players in a respectful manner
Discuss the last event: what you did, what you felt, the fallout afterward, etc
Cannot:
No titles or privileges may be granted.
Mechanics are off. No coins or tags may be exchanged, no skills may be used or learned outside of your sign-out.
Plot is also off. GMs will not be running NPCs or answering story questions between events.
No 'private' conversations outside of the main room. The game may not be taken into private messages and we will not be offering private rooms. It's the official stance of the GM staff that if a conversation is important and sensitive enough to need a private room, it needs to happen during the event and not between.
Locations: Here are the locations that will be available:
Crossroads
Frestaetae
Nightbourne
Wyndover
Yardsmuth
In order to participate you must have:
An ARF on file
Paid your yearly membership dues
No outstanding balance on your account
Paid for the most recent event, and submitted a character sign out before the 8 day deadline.
Between event role-playing will begin the day after the sign-out due date. GSOM staff will check you in after they have verified that you have completed a sign out for this month.
Please note that there is 20 mile radius travel restriction. If your character is staying within 20 miles of one of these towns, you may join the server.
If you choose to spend your time between games exploring new areas, going on adventures, or doing other things that are NOT within 20 miles of one of these 5 towns, you will not be able to participate in the server.
Special note: For this month only (between the October and November 2020 events), we will forgo the travel restriction. You may join the one closest to where you are traveling on your sign out.
Thank you!
