...Kyedash was one of only a few people who Evan could stand… who he cared about, purely against his will of course.

July 7, 2009 We've rebooted the game, all new chars, all new plots, all new mayhem! Join up!

September - October 1570 AF: The first two weeks of September are sunny, in the middle 60s F (15-21 C) with light breezes and stronger winds in the evenings. During the second week frost begins to show in the mornings, burned off by the first sunrise. The last two weeks see overcast days with occasional sun, and frequent rains that often bloom into full blown storms. The temp drops to around 60 F (15.5 C) and stays there. Sunny mornings are foggy. Everyone knows whose roof leaks by the end of the month. Roads are muddy and rather horrible.

Weather doesn't improve into the first two weeks of October - in fact, it gets worse, and the temperature drops even further, averaging at about 45 F (7 C). It is rainy for the first week, and though the rain stops for the second week it is still overcast. After that, the weather clears up but it is still not particularly warm. Towards the end of October, there begins to be frost and fog in the mornings.

Just a quick announcement to let everyone know of a minor rule change regarding Gifts. In order to keep everything balanced Gift-wise on the board, Ker and I have decided to implement Gift caps, so we don't end up with half of the characters on the board having rare or unusual Gifts. It doesn't affect any of the current characters, but it is something to keep in mind for characters that you're creating in the future.

This is the new rule, the first half (in italics) being the original rule that still remains in place:

QUOTE
Be reasonable with character Gifts: one strong gift and (if you must have more than one) one weak one, or two weak ones, or two average strength ones, or one average strength one, etc. We don’t want any insanely powerful characters here, so be reasonable. Your character’s personality should make them who they are, not their Gift. As well, please check the Needed/Reserved characters thread to see if the Gift you want your character to have is still available. We've limited the number of characters per Gift in order to maintain a balance of rare/common Gifts closer to what is seen in the books - not everyone can be a Firestarting Empath, after all!


The list of Gifts and how many characters have them/how many spots are left can be found here, in the "Needed/Reserved Characters" thread (in the Applications forum).

Also, I just realized that we don't actually have a 'Quoted' thread for the quoted section at the top of the board... so I made one. It's in the OOC discussion like it used to be.

Thanks!

(Also, wow, how long has it been since I've actually done a 'real' announcement? XD )
