Application Team Apps, and NPC Apps
Hello, Exsilium! Liz here, bringing you two updates. First of all, we'd like to recruit a few more people for the application team, as the ranks have started to thin a little! Kattu, Caitlin, Jansen, and Kyne (and Liz) do a fantastic job (Liz doesn't), but we'd like to add 1-4 more to the team to distribute the workload a little more.
So, do you like to frantically read until your eyes bleed? Look up canons you're not totally familiar with? Stay up late on the night of the 1st and zoom all over a gmail inbox like a hummingbird on steroids? This job might just be for you! We're looking for people with a firm grasp of grammar, sentence structure, and writing cohesion, and most importantly, people who know what to look for to improve these things. This also involves reading about 15-25 apps within the span of 4ish days, which can take a pretty good chunk of time depending on reading speed. Also, you'd better be ready to be showered in love, because we're appreciate you to death for helping out.
If you're interested, please fill out the below form and email it to exsilium.mods@gmail.com! Application… uh, apps… will be open until the 23rd, and we'll be emailing back to our top choices. If you don't hear from us, we still appreciate the hell out of you for volunteering up your time, but we had such an overwhelming response that we went with someone else (a mod can dream, right?).
And secondly, there's another change to applications! This one isn't to the form itself, but rather that we are now allowing (asking for, even! begging for, you could say) applications for Initiate Employee NPCs. These apps will open at the same time that gamewide apps open (but closing solidly on midnight of the 7th, not whenever app slots fill), and you may app both for a PC character and an NPC character at the same time.
We're looking for NPCs specifically for the moonbase plot (although we'd like to continue their presence once characters have returned to Exsilium). Since there is going to be a serious skeleton crew of Initiative workers, it stands to reason that players would get to know them better. We mods unfortunately don't have the time to devote to playing NPCs, but we would absolutely love to give more of a face to the Initiative. So that's where you come in! It's very important to us that players understand enough of the setting to be able to play an NPC for it, so we've made a FAQ page specifically for this. You can ask us absolutely anything about playing a character that is native to the setting, and we'll help you through it. NPC Apps will be posted straight to the NPC App page instead of emailed, and made unscreened upon acceptance, so that it will double as an NPC info page.
NPCs will not be exempt from AC, but they will only require one proof, which must be evidence of response to PCs — either threads in an IC Contact post, or as a presence in a monthly "grab an NPC" log.
If this sounds like something you're interested in, then 1) we'd be insanely grateful and excited, and 2) NPC apps will be opening with general apps on October 1st!
