We here at Lyndria realize that the storylines can be pretty difficult to follow at times, so we've decided to post an entire thread that will inform members of the Guild on what's going on. Storylines of all of the Terrains' RPs will be posted here, from this point on! This will be convenient in the event that you are new to the Guild, or have been gone for some time and would like to catch up on where your character should be, and what you should be doing, in an RP!
{Much of the information which we feel may be crucial for an RPer joining an RP will be highlighted for their convenience.}
I will personally check each of the RPs as they progress, so that I may keep this thread as up-to-date as I possibly can! I hope this is helpful to all members of the Guild!

RP Types
• Extremely Casual - The name says it all. Basically, this is the lowest level of strictness an RP can possibly have. This Type indicates that you will probably never be required to post, as it is purely fun-oriented. You have permission to post out-of-turn and possibly disregard a few of the Guild's Rules, such as the forbidden use of asterisks.
Note: This Type of RP will only be allowed in the Casual RPer.
• Casual - This Type indicates that the RP is purely casual. Without your post, there is a possibility of the other Characters getting stuck in the storyline, but it wouldn't be a major concern, so you are not necessarily obligated to keep track. The Rules of etiquette in this RP will be decided by the creator and will be clearly indicated.
• Semi-Strict - This Type represents a moderate amount of strictness. Bordering on Casual, this particular Type of RP will encourage you to post in-turn, but will allow the storyline to pause temporarily if you fail to post, until too much time passes and they are forced to move on without you. Basically, you are encouraged post when it is your turn, but you will not receive angry PMs if you don't.
• Moderately Strict - You are strongly encouraged to post often. If you fail to do so, the storyline will come to a complete halt, as posting out-of-turn is simply not an option. If too much time passes, the other RPers will move on with another side of the story if they can realistically do so, but if there is no hope of recovery without your post, the other members of the RP may decide to send a PM simply notifying you of your need to post.
• Hardcore - This RP Type indicates that the creator of the RP has set a specific quota for how many posts will be expected from each RPer within a certain length of time (ex. once a week). If you fail to meet this quota without reason or prior notice, you will be asked to leave the RP.
