[QUOTE="The_Traveler, post: 5384768, member: 98743"] Thank you for asking the question! I have been debating if I needed to make a sort of "how this thing works" post and it seems I probably should. I doubt you are the only one wondering. With this style of chat based game the rooms of the chat are setup to be different places within the setting which in this case would be Sharn. So there would be rooms for: Upper Dura, Middle Dura, Lower Tavick's Landing, The Cogs, The King of Fire, etc. The chat is up and open at all times allowing players to login and role-play together in the various locations in the city and if needed make new temporary rooms to represent places that we may not have on the permanent room list. The chat also keeps track of character sheets which can only be modified by members of the DM team. When you create a new character you will need to wait for it to be approved by a DM before going in character with it. This is so we can make sure characters are only using chat approved materials. The DM team is a group of volunteers who login when they have time to run scenes (short events, meeting NPC contacts, etc) or adventures (more in line of what you might expect in a typical table top game session) for those who are online. They might post adventure sign up/announcements in the forums ahead of time or just spring something on those who are already in character on the chat. Players can freely form organizations among themselves or join one of the existing ones from the setting if they meet the requirements. We will be working to accommodate PC run guilds in the forums by providing them with their own subforum if requested. Some of the official groups people could join: The Sharn Watch, The Boromar Clan, The Daask, The King's Citadel, The Deathsgate Adventurers Guild, etc. I hope this gives you a better idea of what it is all about. Feel free to post any further questions here or you can contact me directly by e-mail. The Traveler Head DM for Sharn [/QUOTE]
