I’m in! What now?

What’s the first thing from here?

When you have been accepted into the RPG you should begin by posting your Character's Profile as a new thread HERE. Once that is done you will have to make your first post as your character by having them physically arrive to the Valley. The preferred method is via a post at THE JETTY.

Where will my character live?

Obviously, the next order of business is for your character to seek out shelter. More often than not people begin by getting a room by checking in with Cyrus (an NPC) at the FRONT DESK of the INN. Once you have checked in you create a thread with a random room number and your characters name.

When the time comes to purchase a home, you may go to the MDV REALTY where you will exchange with the NPC Anna. Before you make a thread for your home in the MDV RESIDENCES, you must fill out a HOUSE PROFILE. The MDV Reality is also where you will go to purchase a plot of farm land. Once you have purchased a plot of farm land you will post a thread in the Outskirts of MDV FIELDS.

How will my character earn money?

A list of current shops and businesses can be found HERE. Your character cannot own or take over any business until you have been considerably active in the RPG for at least 3 months. Again, this may seem unfair, but it is to prevent inactive shops. You character can, however, apply to work at somebody else’s business. They can also answer want ads on the BULLETIN BOARD, or post their own search for a job as well. If you have any ideas for possible jobs around town you can PM the RPG Staff.

Once you feel you are ready to create or take over a business you must fill out a BUSINESS PROFILE and PM it to RPG Staff for approval.

How do I interact with other members?

In order to initiate a roleplay with another member you should post HERE. Most likely someone will answer your request to roleplay by responding in that thread or sending you a message. You then create a thread in a location of your choice, or visit a thread already in existence, and allow your character to interact. Once you have finished your RP, you can decide where to rate someone on your character’s heart rate scale. You may do this simply by editing your character’s profile and adding the name of a character you RPed with next to the fitting heart rate level. You are allowed to choose how fast your relationships with people will progress but we won't be having you meet each other, get married, and have babies all in the same day. Try to use common sense when you are moving people on it. You also may want to take into consideration their personality. Pictures for heart rates can be found HERE.

What other things should I know about my character’s role in the RPG?

You should make a thread for your character’s mailbox in the MDV MAILBOXES section. You can also create a journal for your character to keep track of their thoughts, feelings, and daily life in the JOURNALS section.
