Update 2.03
Greetings, OH Members:
We've had a busy week, and that is wonderful. Some of us roleplay every day, so having lots to do is important. You'll find our schedule for this week in the update as usual, and hope that many of you can attend at least one of our quests this week.
Check out All Hell Breaks Loose on the message board! EVERYONE is invited to post and participate, even if you were not there for our public roleplay. This is a great way to get into roleplay, earn some xp, and enjoy each other's characters, especially if you can't attend our quests and storylines.
STORYLINE CONTEST WINNER
Congratulations, temptofblack, for winning our Storyline Contest! You did an awesome and thorough job and I am looking forward to participating in your storyline and seeing your NPC out and about. Make sure you get with me about a timeline to get this going.
You'll be hearing about her storyline sometime soon!
For now, she receives:
• A free character starting at Sapphire Defender that you may keep if they survive the storyline!
• 25xp & 5000gp & 3 Reputation Points that you may use for any character of your own. Let me know where you want the xp, gp and rep to go!
RECRUITING BONUS
A reminder, we are not the type of writing group that forces you to open recruits, or harass you over and over about bringing in new members. No, we are happy letting things grow as they will. That doesn't mean we don't recruit and it doesn't mean you CAN'T open a chat to recruit either ooc or ic, we just aren't going to force you into such things. We do wish to grow, adding players adds much to the game as do characters.
Therefore, I'm going to give a little bonus to all new characters that join in the month of January. They'll get 25XP and 1500gp which puts them at the highest Crystal rank.
As for recruiters, I'm doubling the recruiting bonus so recruit a new player (not a character from a current player) and you'll get 10XP instead of the usual 5XP.
WEEKLY QUESTS
• Tuesday, January 22nd at 9pm (est) -- Quest : Getting into Dunsany Castle!
• Friday, January 25th -- Roleplay Night
• Saturday, January 26th at 9pm (est) -- Quest
• Sunday, January 27th -- Roleplay Night
RUNIK STORYLINE
There is an open, ongoing storyline still going on, concerning the NPC criminal organization called Runik. Basically, they are targeting the OH members or even those that just stay at the OH Inne and either attacking them, spying on them, creating mischief or trying to talk them into joining Runik instead of OH. If you'd like a chance to have an encounter with a Runik operative, just get in touch with me (tesarikone) and we will do it. It can be done in groups, or just your solo character but I will warn you, it's not all fun and games.
WORD OF THE WEEK
Don't forget the Word of the Week, it's always changing and it's XP you can earn once a week just within your normal roleplay! Check the message board. Use it. Send it in.

UPDATES, PATCHES, CLARIFICATIONS
1. There are new skills and they've all been added and updated!
2. I'm going to be putting mun names on the list on the message board since our Moderator jobs are ooc, so if you do NOT want your real name to be used, you need to send me an alias that we can start using, otherwise if I know your name I'm gonna be posting that!
3. Don't forget, if you want your crafting points each week, send in your requests on Sunday so that Andy (ashtonlocke) can update your crafting.
4. Acrobatic Backstab has been clarified to be once per combat.
WELCOME TO OH, NEW MEMBERS!
Please, folks, let's be known for being a friendly writing group and if you see these people online, IM them and let them know they are welcome! Ask if they want to roleplay!
