And we're off! The first post in the IC thread is up!
Whoever posts first is the POV character for the opening narration, but most of it applies to all the characters, anyway. As more players start posting, you can narrate your own arrivals according to your pleasure. There isn't too much to accomplish story-wise at the first scene, but I thought it would be nice to be able to introduce yourselves to each other before the exposition begins. You guys can move upstairs whenever you'd like, but remember to wipe your shoes!
Choose a color for your “in-character” speech, and use it to separate your character's actual speech from your narration and other out-of-character text. I prefer the IC thread to be mostly light on the narration, with actual spoken text taking up most of your post (out of combat, anyway), but the first few posts where you describe your character and establish yourself in the game are exceptions.
Example: Jim decided that red would be a cool color for his speech. This is a cool color, he commented unnecessarily.
If you are planning on joining the game but haven't posted a character sheet yet, don't let that stop you from joining in on the RP! The game statistics aren't needed in a little conversation, so all you need is your character concept and I'm glad to have you. I'll give you fair warning before any combat starts, don't worry.
