Life in Nineholds
Bring a character. Find a story.
A shared world starts with the people in it. Give your character a reason to stay near Windhelm, and leave room for others to help, challenge, or surprise them.
Start with a few sentences
Where did your character come from? What can they do? What do they hope to find here? You can learn the world through play; a finished epic backstory is optional.
Your account can hold up to three persistent characters. Create or choose one in the character picker when you join.
Five things we ask of everyone
- Stay in character. Use out-of-character channels when you need to speak as yourself.
- Let your character lose. Setbacks give other people's stories room to grow.
- Agree on lasting harm. Permanent changes to another character need that player's agreement or a gamemaster ruling.
- Separate player and character knowledge. A Discord post or stream is not something your character automatically knows.
- Make conflict playable. Give conflict a story and a motive. Disruption for its own sake is griefing.
