Welcome prospective member! We're glad you decided to take a positive Shift toward us, and we hope that you decide to stay around for some time! This thread will help guide you step by step through the entire process of completing your character and getting things up on the board as well as giving some friendly advice from the staff.
First, you'll want to check out the Welcome thread, which serves as our plot and setting overview and an introduction to the site's plot and all that good stuff. This one's a required read, and you'll be in good shape if you read closely.
After that, you'll want to delve a little deeper into the setting. Another important read, this one will give you all the good details. If you're in a hurry, you can probably skim it before getting your character together, but you'll want to dig in before you get started RPing.
Next, you'll want to check out the rules. Most of them are pretty standard fare for RP sites and there's no secret word for you to memorize or anything. By joining, you are agreeing to abide by them, however, so keep that in mind.
You'll probably want to check out the wanted characters thread and the canon list. This will give you an idea of what's already around and what you're looking for, so you can skim through and see if there's characters that interest you, or just keep going if you've already got your idea!
When you've done that, you're probably ready to start your character, so you'll wanna look at the application, here. Again, pretty standard stuff, but you'll want to read closely. The more you follow, the better your chances are of getting through the first time. Just post your character's application in the same area as the application, and the staff will get to it ASAP (we're quick about it too).
We'll direct you to the claim board next, with all the standard claims. Feel free to fill out some of that stuff while you're waiting for your character. Or, you could check out the FAQs if you have any questions. And if you've got questions that aren't asked there, check out the appropriately marked questions thread.
You should be accepted in a few, and then, you can head out and start posting! You'll see plot info in the plot section, and there's open threads and character postings both at the bottom of your screen and there.
Again, glad to see you on board, and we're thrilled to have you here!
