HOW MANY CHARACTERS CAN I HAVE?[break]
Currently, we don't have any hard limits on characters. However, our recommended amount is to keep it under 10, or to have as many characters as you can keep active. We do want to leave faceclaims open to other users, especially new ones, and having too many characters makes it more difficult for others to find faceclaims as well!

HOW DO ACTIVITY CHECKS WORK?[break]
Activity checks are usually to the discretion of the leaders, but we'll do an activity check once per season, or in-game year. Leaders get to decide what their activity requirements are, but usually, it's just an active thread, or to start a new one!

WHAT ARE THE SITE POSITIONS?[break]
The site positions are moderators per each leader/group. The duties are spread out, but they include updating character pages, coming up with plots and missions, and making sure everything is kept up to date, as well as welcoming and helping new members with any questions they may have! We like to think of this site as a community where everyone has equal ground.

I'M STILL UNSURE; WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CASTOR & POLLUX TYPES? [break]
The difference between the two is where they draw their power. Castor types draw their power from an external source. Therefore, they're only limited by their environment. They can use their powers whenever, but the challenge is being able to channel them from an outside source. They must learn to harness/channel it rather than to control it; there is less of a risk for a Castor type to destroy themselves with their power, but they must constantly train and their powers also strengthen or weaken depending on how close they are to their natural power source. If they're in a sealed room underground, their powers will be weaker than if they're out in the open under the moonlight. [break][break]Pollux types, however, are born with the energy. They draw it within themselves. Therefore, their powers are a lot more unstable. They must learn to draw it out, as their powers are tied to their life source. That means if they aren't strong enough to control the powers, it can seriously affect their health and even kill them. However, they're not dependent on external sources; their powers are there regardless of where they are.

MY CHARACTER IS HAVING CHILDREN! CAN THEIR POWERS BE INHERITED?[break]
Our inheritability on the site depends on their type. Castor types (witches, shifters, vampires) are a dominant gene, therefore all of their children are either, or they're human. Pollux types (demigods, fae, mutants, angels, demons) are reactive types. Due to their unstable nature, they are rarely inherited. The only exceptions being angels who have children will always be Nephilim, and mutants with children often have a higher chance of becoming a mutant as well, due to their mutant parents' unstable genetics. Fae genes can be inherited, though they their powers are mostly subconscious and rarely activated unless one has the power to do so, eg. witches, who have a long history of crossbreeding with fae.
