World Destiny 9/21/2011

Okay, ladies and gents of World Destiny! After a long summer, WD has undergone many varying degrees of change with the hope of bringing us towards a productive and fun autumn.

The Collision of Darkness:

First and foremost among these changes, the remodeling of our Site Plot has finally (for the most part) been completed. Though lesser-scale edits or two can be made when the need arises, the very many plot gaps we’ve suffered up until now have been filled. We proudly present to you an IC opening to our site plot:

Of Kings and Hearts

As you would notice, the layout of the plot thread, The Collision of Darkness, has been altered. The second post now hosts a log of information that will be obtained In Character from your characters. While primarily blank at the moment, updates to the plot will be posted with a ‘new’ marker as it moves along.

While everyone is invited to work towards the unlocking of various pieces of the site plot, the direction it will move as a whole is entirely dependent of you and your characters. Good luck!

Rules Updated:

Two new rules have been augmented to our General Character Information thread.

1. An issue regarding Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts canons has been addressed. For the full description with examples, see the rule thread.

Tl;dr version: Some histories for Final Fantasy characters are sometimes altered by their owners to fit with Kingdom Hearts canon information. To ensure that the histories run congruently, without any clashing of information between characters, the new rule states that in the making of a canon, a thorough background check should be undertaken to make sure your history makes sense with the histories of related canons that have been registered previously on World Destiny.

This makes the creation and upkeep of canon Journals essential. Don’t forget to keep these regularly updated!

2. With the updated site plot in place, activity in the site is vital. Unless a reason for lack of posting is brought forth, canons who have not been used for a period of a whole month will be reopened to the public. This rule will go into effect a month from today.

Auditions/Now Recruiting:

The ranks of the Organization and Dark XII are in dire need of replenishing. See one of the two lists for characters that are open.

Roxas and Xemnas are now officially up for audition! If interested in either the Key to Destiny or the Organization's Superior, see here.

Atlantis:

Expedition Atlantis is nearing the lost city! In light of this, an opportunity to apply for Atlantean characters is now available. Profiles submitted from now until October 22nd, upon acceptance, will be official citizens of this new world.

All applications should follow the usual profile form and requirements, with one difference: characters applied for before the 22nd will take up a free character slot, and will not affect your overall count.

(Atlantean characters submitted after the 22nd will take up a character slot.)

Site Skin:

As summer draws to a close, a new skin for World Destiny is currently in the works.

However, for those with certain codes in mind, good design/theme ideas, or even some graphics you feel can be implemented into a skin, feel free to shoot us a PM (or, if you’re really bored, create a skin of your own). Your ideas or submissions could be used sometime next year.

To submit a skin, we ask you create a Proboards test site from which the finished product can be viewed. Our site’s current header and footer codes can be provided upon request.

Don’t feel bad if your skin is not applied to the site. All the work put into creating one is appreciated, but sadly not all creations will be able to be put to use, for either aesthetic or functional reasons.

Note: the codes for all skin changers currently available clash with many of World Destiny’s current codes. It has been brought up in the past to install a changer with which to view multiple skins, but unfortunately many attempts have been made, and with our present codeset it sadly isn’t possible for our site.

Fall Festival:

Coming soon for the start of autumn!
