The Song of Discord is a Clan Plagueis Run-on designed to provide additional depth to the clan storyline. This event allows writers to get rewarded for their efforts with Clusters of Ice as well. Placements will be determined by who best contributes to the overall story in the alotted period. There are a number of ways to do this, but the goal is to advance the larger story and not just that of your character. Working with the suggested plot threads is a good start, but is not the only way to impact the story. What we want to see are posts that engage with the events that are unfolding and with the characters involved, not just the reactions of your character. Any posts that greatly deviate from the prompt, or are deemed detrimental to the competition by the organzier, primarily constitute spam, or deviate from the rules below may be disqualified from earning Placement or Clusters of Ice. Rules for the RO are listed on the first post and can also be found HERE. and are as follows:

On a regular basis, Ronovi and I will create Plot Posts (which will be clearly noted) that serve to move the overarching plot along. We will try to provide notice when these are imminent (48-72 hours) so that you may finish up any posts you're working on. We reserve the right to hold a place once we feel the need to lock down the story (likely no more than 6 hours before we post).

As part of each plot post, we will provide a series of suggested avenues that you might wish to pursue. These are by far not the only things you can do, but there's a better chance doing so will directly impact the story. If you have a plot thread you'd like to pursue that wildly differs from these, we ask you check in with the “GMs" first so we can make sure it fits.

While you're free to create, destroy, and do whatever you need with NPCs, there will some we do want to have some limits on.

a. Named NPCs: This category applies to any NPC with a wiki entry or otherwise is specifically named in clan lore or fiction. Named NPCs can be used freely, but should not be killed, maimed, captured, etc. without checking with the GMs and getting specific permission.

b. Protected NPCs: This will be a specifically enumerated list in a separate information document. Protected NPCs are plot driving individuals that are specifically for the use of the GM's. They should not be used by others without specific authorization.

Do not use assets or characters from other clans, DB Societies (ex. the Inquisitorius) or the Dark Council without specific authorization.

Please contact other PCs before using them or their owned NPCs in a post. Coordination of this sort is essential to a cohesive narrative

Wiki and CS links, lists of protected characters, and other useful information can be found ON THIS DOCUMENT

You are free to reserve a post slot, but please only do so within 24 hours of a planned post.
