Advancement

CHARACTER ADVANCEMENT SYSTEM Silent Heaven's game system is a custom system that allows you to earn XP for (1) logging in, (2) roleplaying and (3) writing journal entries about your roleplay. XP is then spent to level up skills. Skills are special things your character can do in order to support the kind of RP you're interested in. For example, levelling up the skill "Chronicle" will make your character a better writer, or levelling up the skill "Blades" will increase your character's proficiency with a knife. There are no traditional "stats" in Silent Heaven. Instead, skills are grouped into "Aspects" such as Fitness, Empathy, or Insight. As you level up skills of a certain Aspect, this reduces the cost of other skills within that Aspect. This allows for a classless system with a simple character sheet while still maintaining behind-the-scenes complexity for those interested in strategizing their level-ups. When your character reaches max XP, that's your cue to start wrapping up your plots and begin preparing an ending, or "final plot," for your character. Silent Heaven is not a town where anyone but the eternally damned stay. It's a pit stop in your character's life. Your character may move on from Silent Heaven and you're welcome to continue their story elsewhere. Or your character may become consumed by the town – dying, unable to overcome their issues. Either way, one thing is for certain: your character's time in Silent Heaven will soon be over. Category: HELP P (Policy) < Previous - Phrasing | Next - History >
