all of the information you'll need to know about SnS can be found here. from rules to abilities and species, it is very critical that you familiarize yourself with the threads stored here.

things can change in a heartbeat in this world of worlds. lucky for you, THE MAN keeps this board full of updates and news so you just have to keep an eye out for new threads to stay fully informed.

there's no "i" in team. THE MAN wants to hear your feedback on SnS. in return, post any questions that come to mind during your stay here. even guesties are welcome!

before you can start roleplaying, you need to post an application for your character, filling out the provided form. if THE MAN approves, the application will be moved to the accepted board and you will be free to begin roleplaying that character.

congratulations! if your application has been moved here, then you are clear to begin roleplaying. the applications are divided by gender to help minimize chaos.

sometimes everyone needs a little excitement to spice up their threads. create a thread here if you've got some neat plans for your character or are looking to get in on the plottage of someone else. anything involving more than three people needs to be approved by THE MAN.

with each character on a different account, it can become difficult to keep track of who plays who. help eliminate confusion by creating a single thread to keep track of all of your characters. optional and the layout is completely up to you.

at the center of the victorian steampunk metropolis is a crowded square. merchants set up small stalls and sell their goods. careful, though, some are more dangerous than they seem. and if the merchants don't try to rob you of your money, the pickpockets will.

booze. babes. drugs. gambling. is there anything this bar doesn't have? oh, don't worry, it also has a relaxed drinking age. can you see over the counter? can you pay the regular price? then, yes, you may have a drink. while this place may look like a dangerous trash heap, it is actually a fairly safe place. these drunks have worse barks than bites. some can get downright friendly (but not too friendly).

a place for transportation and the trading of goods, the hubtown docks sport not only the traditional water docks, but starship docks as well. the starship docks are large, blocky buildings with arm-like appendages that rest on either side of the docked starship and hold it in place. both docks have become a place of crime and shady characters, so tourists keep your purses held tight.

you thought all of hubtown was going to be bad, didn't you? well, you were mistaken. because this little neighborhood here is your patch of heaven, my friend. lined with the well-kept houses of the locals, it's a little cramped, but still quaintly comfortable. there aren't any front yards or parks, several of the cheap, but comfortable inns have tiny courtyards out back. don't forget to stop in and enjoy a coffee or head down the street for an ice cream cone!

this place may not look like much more than a dense northern pine forest, but it truly is. hidden away in the depths of the woods is a very large mansion, beautifully crafted in victorian style, turrets and all. the house has no apparent owner or staff, but the floors are always clean, the candles always lit, and there is always food set on the dinning room table when the doors open sharply at seven o'clock at night.

here is a place where the sun never seems to touch. a marsh forest is home to the little village of doronuma, styled similar to ancient asia. all of the village stands on stilts above the water, and the only way to travel through the forest without getting a handful of leeches stuck on you is by rowboat. the fog never seems to dissipate here, and some whisper that this world is haunted by lost spirits.

this world is the sister city to the lost realm of Atlantis. hidden deep beneath the ocean in unbreakable bubbles that filter the oxygen out of the water surrounding them is a fully functioning city. they have devices that enable people to breathe underwater for exploring, hunting or farming. their architecture is something similar to romanesque, but with more watery themes. if you're visiting this world, i hope you like fish.

the floating city. high above a barren planet, a city exists that is a net of hot air balloons, ropes, and rickety bridges. the culture of the city is unlike anything seen anywhere else, worshiping gods of the sun, clouds, moon, and various stars, they have festivals at least once a month. they spend the night of the full moon getting incredibly drunk on a shimmering drink they call "the goddess's nectar" (the moon goddess is their only female god). inhabitants of this floating world tend to be short and slim with very high metabolisms, so larger people should be weary in this world. the city only touches down once every three months, so traveling to this world via starship must be planned in advance.

plot note: due to being cut off from their usual alcohol supplies, the community barge now only serves the goddess' nectar.

what's this? a mysterious spacestation floating up there in the night sky? officially, katali spacestation is the home of a type of research that combines magic and science and the boundaries of each. but what's really going on there is unknown.

one mode of transportation from world to world is on ships specifically designed for space (aka spaceships). although usually the least used mode of transportation, it is also the safest and the slowest.

the place the person behind the mask can chat it up with the rest of SnS's roleplayers. enjoy games, introductions, and general mingling. remember, though, these posts don't give you any gold.

SnS would love to exchange links with other sites of all sorts. while affiliation is limited, advertising is open to anyone.

there are some threads that are no longer meant to see the light of day. much like fossils, we lock them up in cages and charge people to view them. just kidding! but only on the cages part...
