[color=a8a8a8][i]The citizens of Helston, a sleepy town in the Neutral Zone, witness an attack from the skies that is unlike any they have ever seen before. The local resistance forces are quick to respond and investigate. The Mayor of the town issues a general alertness for his citizens. Some of the locals join the resistance forces just outside of town to see what is going on and if they need assistance. What they find is a conflict that might be out of their element. It is here that the fate of a group of citizens intertwine. As the newly discovered threat spreads, they must follow.[/i][/color]

[color=a8a8a8]★ Keep posts at around a thousand words. A little more or less depending on what happens in the post. If posts extend far beyond, nearing two thousand words, consider splitting the post into two separate ones.

★ Collaborations and past interactions can be completed through [i]Flashbacks[/i]. You simply split your post into additional timelines of past and present. This should prevent long waiting times and make the in-character thread feel more active.

★ If you use several timelines, the thousand word guideline is [i]per timeline[/i]. However, one should still consider several posts rather than an incredibly extensive one.

★ The [color=79629b]Quest Steps[/color] at the end of GM posts will give you some general pointers of what to do next. The purpose of it is mostly to have a clear red line to follow in the story, so that there is no confusion.

★ Refrain from posting pictures and music other than your character's portrait. Even then, edit it for size. If you find some kind of art or sound that you think would fit the mood and world, post them in the out of character as suggestions.

★ There is no guideline for post frequency. I will simply move things forward at various speeds depending on time of week and year. If you jump out of the roleplay or have other real life issues, you are welcome back with a new character.
