Aderaylm
Quote:
The universe is vast; in it many realms exist side by side, all different and unique in their own right. Some of these worlds have Brother Realms; these are two worlds that are so close that they exert mutual influence over each other. Although mutually influenced, they do not usually correspond in most major aspect. Our world and Aderaylm are in such a relationship. In our world, everything is governed by the laws of physics, while ideas and human laws are agreements. In Aderaylm, everything is governed by human laws and ideas, they act as unchangeable facts and ways of life and the laws of physics merely complement them.
Aderaylm is heavily affected by the ideas and culture of our world. The concept of good and evil is very strong in any of our cultures and so it was the most prevalent concept that leaked in to Aderaylm. Its influence was so vast that the people of our Brother Realm divided themselves in to two groups, the Faction of Good and the Faction of Evil. The division happened many millennia ago and the ideology is deeply ingrained in to the cultures of each faction. War has been a reality for everyone in Aderaylm for as long as history can remember.
Approximately a millennium ago a third faction was formed; this faction is unlike the other two, it does not base itself on the ideology of duality or concepts of good and evil, it is based on pure reason without the colors of human emotions and judgment. The birth of the Faction of Reason closely followed that of Lord Lucimorth. Some say that he was human at one point and now became a god; others believe he was always a god, but most people deny his existence completely. One thing can't be ignored, neither one of the two factions can stop him or end the existence of the Faction of Evil. Due to its nature, the third faction has no known base of operations or army, as far as anyone heard; its members hide within the other two and communicate in a strange and unknown way. Only the most skillful and resilient people become its members.
The events of the guild take place during the one thousand year mark of the third faction. At this time, unexplained events occurred throughout the land and many people claim to have seen Lord Lucimorth. His existence becomes harder to deny and the Lords of the other factions are finally acknowledging his perceived threat.

Welcome!
So you are thinking of joining the guild? Great! Since the guild is constantly being updated and expanded, creating a character may sometimes be slightly confusing. No fear! The Guide is here!
Step 1.
The first thing you should do is join the guild itself. In your application you are not required to fill out any form or provide any information about your character, simply apply with a brief message. Something like "I am very interested in this guild and would like to join it! Please accept my application" will do just fine!
Step 2.
As soon as your application has been accepted, you are ready to create your character! First, you must go to The Introduction Thread , this thread contains all of the information you need to join. you will find the overall story of Aderaylm and a little bit about the three factions in it. The third post in the thread contains all the guild rules as well as a CPF (Character Profile Form), this is what you need to get started!
Step 3.
Filling out the form is very easy, however some areas might raise questions and so on this step we will go through this process.
Quote:
Gaia Name: Simply write down your gaia name. (Example; I would write Lucimorth)
Aderaylm Character Name: Come up with a name for your character in the guild.
Age: Select the age of your character according to the rules in the third post of The Introduction Thread
Gender: Select your gender
Faction: Select your faction (You can only choose either Faction of Good or Faction of Evil. The Faction of Reason is only available to those who are personally contacted by Lucimorth after receiving several rank upgrades and being in the guild for a good amount of time.)
Profession: Select a Profession from those listed in the The Introduction Thread , second post. The entire system is based on skills, so try thinking of a profession that encompasses most of the skills you want, that will be your main profession. You can learn new skills later on in other profession areas.
History: You may write a history for your character.
Step 4.
Now that your character is ready, post the completed CPF in the Members Directory. As soon as I review and accept it, you may start participating in RPs. you do not need a character to post in the Chatterbox and Aderaylm Tavern.
Step 5.
Now you are ready to visit the personal training threads. They are located in the Training Grounds subforum. Please look at This Thread. You should already have a character outline and a profession chosen Now, simply fill out the rest of the data that is missing from your profile.
Just to outline the additions, here are the specific new sections:
Rank: I will write in your rank, which will be the first rank of your profession.
Level: The character level is the summ of all of the skills you have. As you start, you get 5 points to put in to your chosen profession, so your level is 5.
Main Profession: Please choose a profession from the professions list. Next, add your 5 free skill points in to the five skills in your selected profession. You may put one in to each, or all five in to one, or any option inbetween.
Secondary Profession: You may choose one later on in the game
Bloodline: This is your special talent, you choose one skill that becomes your bloodline skill. A bloodline skill has double the potential amount of skills you can add. So, as a novice, you have a limit of 10 on your skills, however, a bloodline skill can go up to 20! So, it might be useful to choose a skill in your main profession so that when you are a Grandmaster, instead of 25, your limit will be 50!
Everything else will be filled out by me, so no need to worry about it. Just PM me this part [the additions] of the character sheet and I will set up a thread for it. Remember, the basic character profile sheet should be posted in the members directory.
If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to ask me!
