Greetings! I am happy to see that you have taken interest in Arcia. Arcia is a forum role-playing game that is set in the not so distant year of 2075. A new solar system was discovered near earth's own in 2027, and ever since, has been inhabited by many different people. For more info, visit the "History of Arcia" segment of the forum.
For those of you new to role-playing games that take place on forums, here is how they work. First, you as a member create your character in the "Applications" section of the forum. Then in your application you would give detailed information about your character (such as body build, weapons used, height, weight, eye color, class type etc.). After your application is complete and has been accepted, you are ready to begin posting.
Posting in a rpg (role-playing game) forum is somewhat difficult at first if you are new. What helps is to view other members posts to get an idea of what is acceptable. Basically, you join the story in whatever way you choose (i.e. land on a planet by way of space transport) and then write your character's actions as he/she interacts with other characters (No foul language) and attempts to complete certain goals (example: bring down a power-hungry menace). The fun comes in the creative writing aspect of the story. You can make your character as awesome as you want. You can have judged writing duels with other players (see "duel rules") and essentially make your own story. Of course that story is influenced by other players which makes it unpredictable!
If you have any more questions feel free to message me or post as a guest in the "questions" thread. Please proceed to the applications next and follow the provided formatted application.
