Basics

  1. Rift Force is a sort of 'measuring unit' for how attuned a character is to the Rift. Usually, it is expressed in 'magical strength' (level). Gaining RF allows increases in magic power and number, as well as companions and other extras.
  2. In addition to the ways listed below, characters may earn Rift Force via participation in site wide plots (SWPs). This will be variable and will be handled on a plot-by-plot basis.
  3. Rift Force is specific to characters and cannot be exchanged/transferred.
  4. Rift Force may only be claimed for actions/threads involving characters, not companions being written alone in a thread.
  5. If a character goes into negative RF, their abilities are frozen until they regain positive RF.
    • 20+ years old characters get a grace period of 3 months from joining before their annual aging deductions begin.
  6. You may redeem threads for Rift Force here.
  7. Requirements for thread to be eligible for claiming Rift Force:
    • Must be completed, which means have an IC conclusion (can be a fade-to-black).
    • Archived thread (using Archiving Tool).
    • 6+ posts total.
    • 3+ posts by your character.
    • 2+ thread participants.
  8. If you are "teaching" or "being taught" about the lore, please make an OOC note stating, for example, "Teaching post 1/4"
  9. Kisamoa & Hope do not count as "meeting a new character" unless explicitly stated they do.
