Power Levels

Not all characters are created equal, remember this because this knowledge will help guide you in your journies around, Ashirion. While you are a created character, there is no 'real' hard and fast 'stat system' or 'character type' on my world. Characters are the sum of their player's skill in their creation, and their use of the resources inherent in the world's theme/history/game info. To this end you are going to find varied differences in power levels: There can be three types of power level considered in this game world.

#1 the PC's

-- Regular Player Characters created in Chargen and new to the world.

-- There are several archetypes of character that need to be addressed and what the player can expect to create - in the beginning.

-- Faction members, such as the Watch and Guardsmen, other special factions including the Guilds: These require RP to enter, and as such no one can begin as a Wayfarer right from the start, the group are extremely complex and require IC training/knowledge to join.

-- Mages, Priests and other such characters: We request that you try and bring your character in as a lower-ranked member of these orders. Try to RP through the ranks and you will find the rewards are richer than attempting to play a Mage or a Priest for instance right off the bat.

If you are not sure, please ask a member of staff or even page me (Wolf) or Hellion.

#2 the PC's

- - Regular Player Characters who have been here a while, learnt new abilities/skills and progressed by RP.

#3 NPC's

-- Short for None Player Characters, these can be ordinary folk you meet on the street, or powerful Magic Users from a long time ago. Good examples of NPC's would be: The Queen, the Advisor and the Guild Heads. Not all of these characters are run by staff...

If you do something stupid and you incur the wrath of a higher powered character, you have only yourself to blame if they come back and kick you hard in the ass. They're in that position because of the way they fit into the world. There are many different types here, good luck in your interactions.
