	And we have begun. Was that opening post a little shorter than you were expecting? Yes, it is in comparison to most I write. There is reason for that. I am sure those that were approved for the RP were well aware of the number of rolls I made. Much of those rolls were to determine a vast amount of things that are going to affect the RP. Most they were to see how things fell into place. Thing is, most of that has NOT been posted about. Yet. And I will not be posting for it. I will be sending each of you privates messages shortly to let you know little tid bits. 

	Now, as you start getting your replies together I want you to remember a few things - Anything you attempt must be rolled for. Those numbers are not there just to look pretty. Neither are your skills. Use them, even your basic abilities. I suggest to start you ask about anything that even hints at needing a roll. It will be easier that way instead of having to go back and need an edit later. 

	One big thing I want to remind you of. The forum rules. This RP is twisted but the forum only allows through pg-13. So watch yourself. Especially when it comes to describing things of a more personal nature. I will not have this turn into a smut fest that gets shut down. So do NOT make any overly crude and blunt mentions of private areas. If you wonder, message me privately. Please make sure to go back and reread the section under Game Mechanics labeled The Dice for instructions. I don't want to waste time answering questions that would have been avoided with a simple read through.

	Some of you are arriving on foot, others by horseback, and others by carriage. Here is a list of how each character is arriving. 
[list][*][color=rosybrown]Foot:[/color][list][*] Doctor Kindle[*]Miss Creme[*] Master Plum[/list]
[*][color=rosybrown]Horse:[/color][list][*] Lady Lechery[*] Justice Cobalt[*] Sister Penance[*] Prima Rave[*] Mr. Titian[*] Master Tack[*] Captain Moss[/list]
[*][color=rosybrown]Carriage:[/color][list][*] Madam Envy[*] Professor Walnut[*] Mounte Bank[*] Madam Mauve[*] Debutante Blush[*] Dr. Swamp[/list][/list]
	Those in carriages - you either drove them here yourself or had 1 person driving for you. If you had someone with you, they can either walk back home and leave the carriage or take the carriage with them. They will not be allowed in the gate. 

	Those on horseback and on foot - oh, what a treat for you. I wonder how many of you took into account this is winter? The season was on the invitation and weather was posted for in appendix 12. Oh those little details are a bitch aren't they? How hard it was for me not to point that out but I am a very cruel mistress and this RP is about evil and suffering and all types of shenanigans. It wouldn't have been exactly fair to coach people through that. Don't worry, things will be included in your pm. Some of those rolls were to see if you bundled up or not. ^_~ Let's see how many passed! 

	Do remember to use your headers when you start posting. They are in appendix 6. Change out the color code rosybrown to your personal color code. Place in your Alias under character name. Under skills - you will write in anything you get a roll for. If you didn't get a roll for it, place N/A. Location for your first post will be [i]Shadowell Forest: Front Gate[/i] This will change as your character moves. Make sure to place your Max HP next to current hit points. This will change as you take damage. Make sure to check all the rules for the header in Appendix 6.

	One last note. I know this Rp is housed in the advanced section, that is only because of the complexity of the OOC and game mechanics. It has NOTHING to do with expected post length. I know many of you are going to be tempted to go overboard. It is expected. The minimal posting amount for this is 2 well developed paragraphs. Thing is, it would do me and everyone else involved a lot of good if you tried your best not to make your posts too terribly long. We do have over a dozen active PCS - that is a LOT of information to keep up with during a counter. Try to keep your posts well developed but clear and concise as well as you write. Try not to guild the lily too much. It will make for much more enjoyable game play over the long haul, make posting on you easier if you don't have to read a wall of text constantly and make far less get missed by yourself and others. Especially when calling for rolls. Not to mention the more internal monologue you reveal the harder it is going to be to keep shit a secret.
