    re:Action
    re:Action blocks are special, if something happens that you get to react to, such as a preemptive strike.

    intervention
    Intervention is something you guys can do... What's an intervention?
    An intervention is when you hi light me to intervene on someone elses action with your own because you wish to stop them from acting.
    You can intervene if you choose just besure to highlight me with @Tamamo

    There is also STOP! block which should only be used if something happens that breaks several rules. "Doing multiple actions such as, Trip Locked Character, Steal Item, Insert Item in Character, Flee"

    Rules | Information
    Rules are green as well as information pertaining to gameplay. Here are a few to start off. with including knowledge above.

    Magic
    Magic Power comes from a few different sources, but is otherwise free form. If you are playing a mage please select one of the ones below with the exception of Innate or Profane.

    Arcane: Arcane magic is said to come from draconic or supernatural blood or dedicated study. Sorcerers, Wizards, Warlocks, Mages, etc... MOSTLY use this power.
    Divine: Magic that is drawn from religious belief is divine magic. Only Divine Magic can heal and raise the dead.
    Nature: Magic that is drawn from Mother Earth for lack of better words.
    Profane: Fiends have and can provide access for a steep price to Profane Magic which gives the caster two pools of magic to draw from.
    Planar: Their are many planes, and some have elemental and alignment attributes to them. Planar Magic taps into these planes.
    Innate: Dragons, Gods, and Abberations have innate powers others do not. As do some people you have made deals.

    Artifacts
    Minor Artifacts are allowed in the beginning one per character with limited ability at my discretion within reason.
    Major Artifacts are nearly indestructible and OP as hell. They are rewarded to individual players for Good RPing.

    Cause and Effect
    When we switch consequences I will list cause and effects and the attitude of locked npcs will change.

    Contacting Friends!
    On your journey you will come across npcs friend and foes. You can contact anyone who is on the contact list in the post below at anytime. If you have magic user they can send this message instantly.
    Otherwise it will take up to four weeks real time for them to respond based off location. If they are in the same location The time is next update.

    Vetos
    I'm not CJC, if you obey the rules i will not veto your post. I am very adaptable when it comes to Role Playing, and most of the time I laugh my butt off when you guys play with me.

    Update: 8-11-17
    It's a dark a storm knight... In search of shelter you run|ride through the storm and come to a inn and tavern... Thank heavens. Hopefully you can get some hot soup and a good glass ale. A room would be nice as well. You enter the tavern it's all but empty. The barkeep is washing a glass two concerned elves are whispering in the corner. A Gnoll is sharpening his ax. He smiles and nods at you. He is certainly quite the friendly Gnoll. Two dwarfs are harassing one of the waitresses. You spotted a woman in the exact same uniform walking pass you in the rain unarmed with just a basket of apples. Hopefully she'll be okay. You spot someone with his face wrapped tightly in a scarf. Theirs a poster of a halfing on the wall. "Janos, Dead or Alive 1000 gold" The Barkeep booms out "CLOSING IN 30 MINUTES LAST CALL FOR DRINKS." The Gnoll looks at you? Care for tale adventurer I'll buy you a drink? His hand offers your the chair ahead.

    What will you do? Lots of people to choose to talk to here and those will knowledge local get a bonus choice!

    Knowledge Local
    Spoiler: show
    Oh hell no! You've heard of that creap JANOS, leader of the redback bandits. Wanted for Theft, Rape, and even Murder. This area is his turf. That woman is in DANGER! Unfortunately if you leave now you may not make it back in time!
