Why, hello there.

I've been looking around a bit at the forums, and I've never been one for forum RP but this has actually sparked my interest due to wanting a more freeform experience. Something that doesn't rely on some sort of game mechanics, or is limited by game mechanics and just allows you to be pure RP about everything. But there are also a few things I was wondering about that I couldn't quite find information about as I searched around. Though, I could just be blind and looked right over it without realizing it.



1) Is there any age restrictions on characters? I've noticed there are a small amount of characters in the 12-13 range, so that got me curious as to if there is a limit. And I assume that people who play young characters are expected to 'act that age' (to some extent, no one's perfect after all). As in, they're not supposed to be an ace pilot, a master Jedi, a full Sith, master of a dozen languages, etc, etc.

2) How does the flow of time work? I noticed there is a timeline, but how long does it take for a "year" to pass? Or is it basically 1:1, in a way, and these younger characters would take a long while to actually 'grow up'?

3) Is there any information about what the 'titles' are? Like, some I can guess what they are but one I've seen makes me a little confused as to what it means. Which is 'Lost'.

#) I'm scared and slightly intimidated. Halp.

Hello there and welcome to Chaos! No reason to be intimidated, we're all here to help you get settled and have fun ♥

To answer your questions;
  1. Yes, you cannot play a character that is younger 13 years old. There is no expectation of 'playing their age' as you put it. Some people love playing super knowledgeable 14 year olds, for example.
  2. There is no official flow. The freeform you're after? That's part of it :) People choose however they prefer to do it, and when site staff updates the timeline, it's to recognize that this and this many yeas have passed. Most people average the 1:1 to 1:2 range from what I've seen. Mostly, we keep in check which thread comes before what thread, that's a more sure way to make sure you got the timing right.
