Policy: Primary/Secondary Characters
Posted: Mon Aug 22, 2022 11:36 pm
As a story-first roleplay room, Plains of Turia welcomes its members to make use of secondary characters to further flesh out, expand, or complement their roleplay. In the interest of maintaining full transparency and accountability, a few additional rules do govern the use of secondary characters:
- Secondary characters are reserved for Members-only.
- Secondary characters must be registered by posting a filled-in application to the New Characters & Arrivals board. Please state somewhere that they are a secondary character so there's no confusion.
- Secondary characters must be visibly identified as such in their tags; tags must also include the identity of your primary character
- There is a soft cap of two secondary characters. It is our general opinion that the home is better when there is a stronger investment of time and focus on each character; to that end, we prefer no one take on more characters than they can reasonably invest that time in. If you want to exceed the limit, we'll need to have a conversation first.
- Secondary characters are not permitted to travel to other rooms. This rule is temporary; we intend to do a survey of site-run rooms and their rules regarding secondaries, but for now secondary characters may only be used in the Plains of Turia room & The Great Southern Plains subroom.
