[REMINDER + GOD APPLICATIONS]

attorneyatlolFirst order of business: This is a reminder that the character limit goes into effect on January 1, 2009. The magic number is 9, meaning you won't be able to apply for any more characters once you reach the limit.
Players who already have more than 9 won't be asked to drop any characters but will be required to lessen their numbers before they apply for anyone else.
Secondly: After much discussion and weighing the pros and cons, we've decided to open up applications for mythological characters (Greek gods etc.) on a two month trial basis that will also begin on January 1, 2009.
We've reviewed past concerns regarding god characters, and the main issue seems to stem from godmoding, which is a problem that can crop up with any character. Naturally, they'll be subject to the same godmoding rules as everyone else, and anyone found breaking those rules will be handled in the same manner as any other player.
To avoid issues of OOCness, players will be asked to cite specific references or myths that offer insight into characterization.
Note: Applications for any religious figures or deities from top ten active world religions will not be accepted.
Remember, this is a two-month trial; once it's over, we'll see how everything went and then come to a final decision. (If the final decision isn't in favor of gods, characters that were applied for during the trial period will be kept for as long as their players will have them--i.e. we don't expect you to drop them.)
Feel free to comment with any questions or concerns! ♥
