Character Creation

Character creation is something we all love. It's an experience that really helps you get involved with the plot and engage the setting. Below are the basics to creating a character.

In order to play in Markoth, players must join the game by creating a character. This character will be the Player’s input to the game and thus is up to the player, to an extent. In order for the world of Markoth to have context, be believable and in the end make sense, the Story Team of Markoth work to ensure everyone and everything has its place. However there are some guidelines when creating your character.

What to Consider
When creating your character, consider the following:

Your character’s name, will it be inspired by your elders, will you have your father/mothers name etc.

Your character’s age, you are not limited to your actual age, this however can be dependent on your race.

What profession would your character do?

What is your character’s demeanor, how do they treat others and conduct themselves.

Where is your character from?

How did your character make it to where they are?

Why does your character fight?

Who does your character align with?

Which class would your character fit into?

Submission
After writing your character profile, you can submit it to the Story team via email at: game@battlecrylarp.com OR via the BCLARP account on Facebook.

The Story Team will then work with you to tweak, fix, and mould your story to fit with the setting, as if everyone was left to their own devices, we would have no context at all. Please bear in mind that not all ideas fit well within the world of Markoth. Try to make sure your character is in line with the 10 Things You Need to Know About Markoth.

Once your character has been approved, you now have your name and background, act the part! Go to the next game in character, meet others from your side and find out about their characters, and get some ideas for your next character.

Things to Know
Players are allowed a maximum of three characters at any given time. If you would like to create another, you must delete off one of your characters and replace them; however Membership owners are able to create up to five characters.

Your character cannot die at Battlegame events (unless voluntarily), due to a high magic spell (see 10 Things You Need To Know About Markoth) that was cast over the battlefield that shields you from deaths gaze, your character may fight and die freely… for now.

When you delete your character, you will retain your proficiencies but be required to provide a replacement character should you only have one.

Characters should be treated as a profile, build it up, become them, and don’t go out of character unless you need to.
