RPG Information: There is plenty of neatly presented and well written information about the RPG, in character and out of character. Further information about the two sides that can be played in the RPG, the Noresh and the Noctis, is available on the forum.

The Admin: A guest friendly section for questions that is then divided into 3 sub-sections; Ratings/Comments, Suggestions/Ideas, and Concerning Site. The Admins are prompt, polite and detailed in their responses to the questions asked.

Application Process: An automated application form is on the website and asks for a sample RP post. This application must be submitted before registering on the forum. Member profiles are listed on the forum.

Other Comments: One thing to note is that the longer members are a part of the RPG, the more powerful their characters are. So you cannot join the RPG as a character of power, it is something you need to earn over time.

The website says that there are 111 unique boards that members can roleplay on. This provides a large variety of locations for members to explore in character.
