This is the rules for posting in out-of-battle rp style posts, learn them well as you'll need them to travel anywhere throughout the continent of Elibe
1. Posts here are supposed to make up part of a story and added to your background, should be enjoyable to read. This means absolutely NO one-liners. All posts should be at least one short paragraph!
2. We encourage interaction between members. We'd love for your character to end up meeting other characters throughout the rp so keep most of your posts friendly and inviting, unless your character acts otherwise, and be sure to talk to the other members in-character when posting in the rp. We also encourage joining parties with other members and traveling in groups, but it is not necesary
3. When You post that you are entering a new area in a new thread while in the rp at the top of your post put "From: <<Town you just came from>>" ( make sure the two areas are connected on the map or by reading the first post of the threads. When going to a new area from another in a post at the bottom of your post put "To: <<Area you are going to>>" If you are not entering or leaving an area, those post headers and footers are not nessecary.
4. This rule is about time. You know as well as anyone that traveling across a country in real life takes time, and we have cars and planes that don't exist in the rp. What I mean is make sure you don't make posts having your character travel from Missur to Ilia in 5 minutes in real time, but rather wait for a while..about five minutes at least before you post in the next area connected area..i.e. a near-by town or a town's sub-board.
5. When traveling in a party, member/party leader in that party can post that the group is entering or leaving a new area, so make sure everyone in the party wants to move to a different area before you post it.. The headers and footers in this case should appear like this. "From Lycia, With Rivern's Party" or "To Bern, With Josiah's Party"
(Note: This list is subject to change in time and more may be added or taken away)
