@Rithy
I was told to post it today. So I posted it. Pretty sure at least one side is starting.

@Famotill I assume the Wolves have a different starting scenario?

Seems that was hidden but not hidden. So it's not common knowledge how my guy started. Whoops.

In regards to Avan's post, sometimes your characters abilities, backstory, or demographics will grant them access to additional bits of interaction/lore. This is a great opportunity to find out a few things about characters/events/etc. These scenes will be denoted by a 'hider' and will typically be a joint collaboration between myself and another player. That would also explain why there is an "Atlas update" notification in a post not by me.

"I'm working on the post now! So once I finish that up, yes!"

@Life in Stasis

Yeah, your story is completely different

So one group uses the IC for posts and the other uses the CS tab. How did I miss that?

@Bishop Yessir! You'll be in the 'Characters' tab as a member of the 'Wolves' party. Finishing up the IC now! It's pretty easy to get lost in all of the messages in the OOC don't worry about it.

BOOM! The ICs are up, and just like with the Owls post I'll be tidying it up every few moments just so it looks neater. You have everything you need for now on either side to get started!

Is there a particular order that you all wanted to RP in or first come first serve?

@Famotill I think first come first serve will suit. And we'll just continue in that order, or whatever order is respectful to the party as can be discussed in the OOC. I'll probably have something up this afternoon.

I'm kinda confused on what to actually do here. Can I just go by my logic straight to finding the person of interest? Or do I have to select a method of searching and await your response? The second option would make it hard to fill 2 paragraphs when you only take one action.@Famotill

Isn't there anything else to write about except that one action? Like his thoughts about a recent experience, how his journey has been on his way to Caracas, or his opinion on the content of the post?

Right now I know pretty much nothing about your character because of his lack of personality description so I'm really curious to know what he's about.

Yeah sorry, I figured that might be a bit of an issue, but I wanted to the first posts to be more about introducing your character. Make their interactions to the world around them unique. It doesn't necessarily have to be two paragraphs, but give us a sense of why your character is looking to find Dantel. How do they feel about Caracas? About the Bull Pits? Then make them try and scout him out. Remember you're just looking for him right now, no need to chase him down. Maybe your character is particularly perceptive? (in which case you can message me asking what your character might notice)

This preliminary series of posts is just a vehicle for learning to understand your character and their motivations.

Character development...who would've thought of that.... lol

Kinda been forming this mentality that if it isn't an action, it is fluff and would just waste other people's times since their characters can't interact or do anything with my posts.

But yeah, I'll start with that.

Yeah, it is a bit of fluff, but again, I'd like for everyone to get a chance to see the other characters they'll be dealing with. It makes it much easier to understand how interactions and that fun action stuff will go when the time comes.

Too much fluff is boring. Too little fluff is soulless. The trick is to add just enough fluff to make your writing interesting, but leave out enough to keep it easy to read.
