). There may be other opportunities to play different roles, yet everyone should have a Councillor character.Please create a new thread in the Sign In forum with the information below.
All players are required to utilize a points system when creating your character, similar to DnD. You must include a breakdown of the points you are using for your character(s) in your bio threads. Once you post your bio, I will come through and approve it, locking the thread, and you will receive the relevant masking related to your party so you can coordinate with your fellow politicians.
If you need to make minor changes or additions to your bio afterwards, that is certainly allowed; however, points re-allocation or major changes will not be authorized without good cause.
At a minimum, be sure to include the following information with your biographies:
Name:
Character Avatar's Name (if applicable):
Date of Birth:
Place of Birth:
Primary Residence:
Representing (please reference the List of Federation Members and available seats):
Political Party:
Sub-Council Preference:
Educational Background:
Professional Background:
Players will receive 60 points, which may be allocated to give your character certain traits that may give you an edge. All of these traits will impact your character in the game and may be used to benefit you or may be used to attack you during your career.
