Positions

[Azzy]

There are two key categories when it comes to positions on Avaren. The two categories are member group and custom position. Member groups are very broad categories that give an overall distinction to the characters general affiliation or purpose. There are a limited number of member groups to choose from. The second part of your position, your custom position, is a lot more varied. As "custom" would imply, this can be anything of your choosing.

For example, one might decide they desire to be in the "Adventurer" member group, as they feel no particular loyalty towards any specific organization. Then it is up to them to come up with whatever flavorful position they want to define their character as, be it "swashbuckler", "Rogue", or even "Hero of epically disproportional fame". Though creativity is encouraged, there is always a point where things become ridiculous, of course. Use common sense along with creativity when deciding on your custom position, bearing in mind that you are allowed to change both member group and custom position whenever you wish. All you need to do is message a staff member.

There are four main member groups that you may choose from when starting off on Avaren and two reserved member groups. The member groups you may choose from are "Champion of Avaren", "Adventurer", "Faithful", and "Villain".

Champion: This group comprises those member of either Avaren or Aesir who are generally ready and willing to accept the united kingdoms as their new home.

Adventurer: These are those who, while they have no powerfully driving grudge against Avaren, they've generally had enough of it's troubles and choose not to directly affiliate themselves with the city and, more importantly, reject the present rulership of Avaren.

Faithful: This member group is of those who have some strong faith, whether to the church of Avaren or some other personal deity. They may or may not accept the present rulership of Avaren, yet their personal faith always comes first.

Villain: Just as there are heroes who seek to do good and help others, there are those who seek to do evil and bring harm to those around them. Whether overtly tyrannical or more secretive and subversive, these people are almost always at odds with the established order.

Staff[/u]: These are the people with the most power on the site, who are there to help you should the need arise. Talk to them if you have a problem, ask them questions if you are confused. Once again, they are here to help.

Outlander[/u]: The closest example to use to describe what these are is to call them NPCs. They are basically characters or creatures created generally to cause trouble for people and often to inspire plots. Sometimes there can be rewards for defeating them but often they are simply there for the purpose of making stirring things up a bit. Additionally, Outlanders have the ability to "sweep" people from threads. This essentially is their way of removing people from threads by some means, be it knocking them unconscious or removing them entirely from the area by some other means. This is their right and power to try and control god-modding if it gets too out of hand. Still, this is generally only meant as a last minute effort if you are making the RP-ing experience less enjoyable for other. Of course, if you think you have been treated unfairly for any reason, please talk to a staff member about it.
