Welcome to Gaia! ::

Really? I honestly didn't know that. I only own the rule book and the source book for WTA, and neither of them mention that. The rule book mentions that Pentex is big and has subsidaries and such, but not that nobody actually knows about Pentex. Is there a book about Pentex or something? If there is, I should probably look into getting that.

As for the RP, I already was considering changing the fact the the formori have the Pentex logo on their foreheads, as it didn't seem very smart on Pentex's part to just stick their name on stuff. I could probably change the company name too.

As for starting different RP threads, yes, you can do that. Any threads you make are seperate from the main RP, so any fetishes you might gain or gifts you might learn do not carry over to the main RP. I would also ask that for now you don't create charecters that are part of the septs council of elders or anything, as I have specific plans for the upper levels of leadership in the sept. Those are really the only limitations, you pretty much have complete freedom otherwise.

There is nothing wrong with short posts and seeing as how this is Gaia I wouldn't be too concerned with how often you can get on and post. I would like people to post at least once every two weeks in the RP, but online RPs move much slower than that. As to needing multiple GMs, I'm not exactly sure why. I have never been in an online RP that has moved fast enough where more than one GM is needed, but if the RP moves fast enough where the GM is required to post multiple times a day we can make more.

You raise a good point of things happening when a GM isn't active. The only reason I would believe that this isnt' a problem is because I have gone through a worst case scenario regarding this. In another WTA RP guild on Gaia, Naakkyuu and I decided to resurrect the guild by starting another pack. It started out slow, but as the guild became more active the frequency of posts started to pick up. Problems started to show up when the guild leader showed back up after an absence of close to 7 months. The guild was flooded with people who had never even heard of WTA before. They just searched for 'werewolf' and 'RP' in the guild search and joined. We were able to keep it under control for a while until around 10 people decided that it would be good to post rapidly over the course of two hours. Long story short, it ******** the RP and we created this guild.

Regardless of how many GMs an RP has, there is always the chance of the storyline getting killed and people breaking rules. Another reason for keeping the number of GMs down is because this guild isn't very active. As is we have 4 people in the Temp RP. These are the only active people ATM. If we were to make one a GM, two out of four people would know the entire storyline and the number of characters in the RP would drop (trust me playing a Char and being a GM is a b***h, tried it before, not fun, but I love this RP so I will continue to do it till someone steps forward who wants to be a full time GM).

Once again this is a very small guild that appeals to an even smaller interest of people. I wouldn't expect to be posting more than twice a day tops even when a GM is on. Things might move faster during an event where masses of people are on Gaia, but usually a GM will be on at the same time.

I am going to hopefully get a guide to roll difficulties up when I post the sept info, but in general I believe that people have the ability to find the difficulty. If anything they make the difficulties harder than they really are. In the books they only give you a handful of examples so a GM is generally making up a difficulty on the spot anyways. I will also try to get up a detailed list of abilities and how the work before the Temp RP starts but I can't promise anything. I am a Kingdom Hearts addict so I'm useless from next Tuesday to the following Monday (I will be on though to monitor activity and will be doing the bannings at the stated time) and I recently have found the joys of World of Warcraft. If anyone really needs to get a hold of me regarding something that can't wait, an email will do though you will have to PM me for it (don't want to post it and get spammed).

Lol well that turned out to be much longer than I intended sweatdrop . Hopefully I didn't talk anyone's ear off.

xd Exactly. Though the turn order was originally intended for just combat to make it manageable for everyone, if those involved want to apply it to the entire RP I am 100% ok with that.

I will try and get up the Sept info thread and a few others later today, but I may not be able to get them up till tomorrow (upgrading some parts of my computer today). I am hoping to start the RP before the end of the month, but I realize that all the setting info has to be up for some people to finish their profiles so I will get that up ASAP.

I could be blind, and not have seen where the main story is...but where and what is it?

Hmm, somebody's going to be playing a Child of Gaia, I take it. XD

We're first going to do the temp RP (the one that takes place in Seattle) and play in that one until the new set up takes place (which is the post apocalptic one).
