XP:I will be using a loose system for XP. Basically each level will require 13 'points' which will roughly account for 1 per major encounter, and also whenever a post strikes a cord with me. You may also nominate other players posts for 'kudos' as well which I will take into account in awarding XP.
Single line posts, unless somehow spectacular, will not earn any consideration from an XP perspective. Please try to show as well as tell. OCC text will also not be considered.Leveling will be kept between myself and each of you - though you are free to communicate this with others.
Occasionally, I may choose to apply other story awards in lieu of XP. Bonus ranks, feats and other goodies are possible. This will serve to offset the somewhat light treasure and magic item loot this campaign by its nature has.
GM Service Level Agreement(TM)Should I fail to post for a whole calandar week, each PC who posts during that week will be entitled to a free Kudos point.
Again, I will do my d**nest not to dole these out this way.
<B>DeathPlease play smart - PCs definately can die, but it will not happen lightly with the exception of real stupidity. Bravery and courage will be rewarded somewhat, but the line between bravery and foolhardiness is a fine one - and will be _my_ call..
EncountersNot all things are meant to be fought. There are dangerous creatures and beings here - you are all 3rd level to start - but that represents the hell you - and virtually all others here - went through to escape. At least at the start you are not remarkable. Those in power right now are there for a reason.
