A sort of freedom or ability to organically involve one's self in a plot or the inevitable plot of the RP as a whole. Or if not that: not partaking directly in the plot as a whole.

Precipice of War for is and has always been a sandbox NRP for the four/five years it's been active. Through that time the longest-ran nations have managed to organically assume their positions in the world and from that arrange the currently growing centralized plot as organically as possible. There's no force involved with breaking any sort of national or regime character, since by now everyone has arranged themselves in such a way that no one's scrambling to find some mundane reason to go to the war that we've been at the precipice of for all these years, and for two decades of lore time.
