1. Posting frequency
This is a fast paced game. It is not a rushed game, but players are required to post at least 4 times per week. Let the DM know in advance if you need a leave of absence for a few days, say if you have health issues or something else special coming up. No problem.

2. Posting style
This is a game with a focus on storytelling, character interaction and character development. Posts musts be written in third person, past tense. Each post must contain at least one meaty paragraph. There is no need for colored formatting of dialogue, aside from out-of-character text (orange). Italic may be used for emphasis or internal monologue.

3. Closed posts
Posts should be open-ended, not closed. Construct your posts in a manner that advances plot or character interaction. Each post should invite a response from other players or expect some kind of description or result from the DM.

4. Mature content
This game contains mature elements, such as language, violent death, romance and elements of horror and the supernatural. It does not contain adult or extreme elments. Maturity is expected from everone, including out-of-character drama and player conflict. We're all here to have fun and excitement.

5. Character creation
Characters are kept on a seperate service, the official compendium D&D Beyond (dndbeyond.com). Characters are created using point boy at third level, with all official game content. Your rpol character biography should have a portrait, 1 biography line with race and class and 1 line with HP, AC and PP (passive perception). You may also include character history and physical description.
