REMNANTS OF THE EARTH'S JOINING PROCESS
Joining's simple, and there's no approval required. Just post in this forum with the following information and consider yourself automatically accepted. If there are any problems with your form or any corrections need to be made, you will be contacted by PM. Don't be afraid, though. This is stress-free and easy and you're not judged on this. RotE is open to all players.

Feel free to fill in as much or as little information as you like! This is just a tentative overview of the character, so the admins can make sure that no setting-breaking characters are joined (for instance, a Pilot that's not a psychic) and that no book/movie/video game/manga characters are joined. We also use the joining form to keep our Master List of Ranks and Character up-to-date. We understand that a lot of people like to develop their characters as they play them while others prefer to write out their characters in advance. That is why our joining form is so laid back. :3 We cater to both preferences.

After joining a character, you can keep an up-to-date and more in depth profile on the Character Profiles board.

JOINING HIGH RANKED CHARACTERS
Please keep in mind that if you plan on playing a character in a leadership position, such as the captain of a space station or the ruler of a country, that you are agreeing to be active and dedicated for the long-term. If you don't feel like you can do that, please do not apply for that position. There is a certain degree of responsibility involved in taking on a role like that, but there are also benefits: your character will be in charge of that nation/space station/colony which also means that you can decide on laws and policies for that nation, organize its military as you see fit, and influence that nation's relationship with other countries (for better or for worse). As long as you do not change what the country is (for instance, no suddenly making Aedolis a peace-loving democracy or having Edanith free its slaves), the sky is really the limit.

Please be sure to include in the subject line of your joining post the following information:
Character First Name, Character Location, Character Rank

If the character is nomadic, it should just be: Character First Name, Nomadic

And without further adieu, the form!

To limit confusion, it is also suggested you create a signature that includes a list of your characters in it, just for the reference of other players. And for the sake of aesthetics and simplicity, please only use one account for all your characters, and use a username that doesn't include numbers (and that isn't 50 characters long). It's not necessary; chances are, your desired username is available!

That's it! Go join! And welcome to RotE!
