2007-02-21 [Once upon a dream]: Ah, *Is enlightened* I want to become a part of the Sidhe clan.

2007-02-22 [Dasner]: "I would like to be a part of the Draconic Clan." Dasner says happily.

2007-02-22 [Kaelin]: I am intrigued by the Gryphon Clan, but I noticed that the page for is does not contain much information. Are there any rules in place for it?

2007-02-22 [Shadowsoul]: i'm interested in this but how do i go about it all?

2007-02-22 [xido]: Hello everyone. I am the current creator of the pages. If you choose to lead a page, let me know, so I can change the ownership over to those who will moderate it. I am the current moderator of the Draconic Clan, who is always accepting new members.

Make sure to read through the few old pages of comments (this page), and get an idea for what we're going for here. There are not too many comments yet, as this is still a pretty young project, and hence, not much content on the pages.

I agree, I borrow a lot of ideas from other sources, and my personal favorite is, in fact D&D by http://www.wizards.com/dnd/

This is in no way to say that a new roleplayer here in the wiki is unwelcome if they have never played D&D. Just the opposite: EVERY ROLEPLAYER IS WELCOME HERE.

We shall be creatures. We shall all be characters. Or at least we'll try. Decide on a fantasy or fiction race, and choose the Clan that best emulates that race.

Not every Race is currently represented by a Clan. Message me personally with any new Clan ideas.

Each Clan will be asked to decided its own role, laws/bylaws, rules, structure, membership, values, goals, etc. Each Clan is part of a House (GOP or MGP), and some races are members of the Fantasy Endangered Species List, because they have 1% or fewer representation on the Representative Poll, the Poll that governs us all:

<poll:73926>

Currently, the poll says that our GOP House Leader must be an Undead, and the Minorities Groups Leader (2%-7% of polled creatures) must be either a werecreature or one of the Wild and Savage Races. When these two positions are filled, and each Clan has at least one member/leader, we will begin making real decisions together, as a big group of fantasy races, who work together in some respects, and in competition in others.

EACH CLAN MAKES ITS OWN RULES AND LAWS. ALL CLANS MUST ABIDE BY THE LAWS CHOSEN BY THE TWO VOTING HOUSES (the GOP and MGP - the fantasy GOP & the fantasy minority) WHEN IT IS DECIDED AS A UNISON HOUSE VOTE (both GOP and MGP vote the same way).

The first thing everyone should do is to check out the Creature_List and decide on your favorite fantasy/fiction creature, including also the fantasy humans of the Human Clans.

The Humans will always be in the GOP, and the Humans will never Lead the House. They are known as the House Moderators, and work between the GOP and MGP for solutions and integration. They are the default race, if you are unsure.

People can join multiple Clans, but if a Clan says otherwise, it is a Clan Law, and it should be abided.

We will come up with more ideas and laws as time goes on. For now, feel free to roleplay a new fantasy creature-character or three, and make this Council a really fun place for Roleplayers to network and get to know each other. Also, anyone here can get involved!

Take Elftown Back! ;)

2007-02-22 [Estantia]: in which case I would like to join the human clan, leading everything doesn't suit me, but peacekeeping I'm fine with.

2007-02-22 [Xarzi]: RP Council? What exactly is the point of this wiki here if you don't mind my asking. I have been here for awhile and I have never heard of an RP council.

2007-02-22 [Earoluim]: I would like to register to be the leader of the minorities, since i am of the lycan clan.

2007-02-22 [Fizban]: I am so extremely confused by all this.

2007-02-22 [Estantia]: i admit it's not clear, but heading over to the forum helps. there's discussion of various issues with these ideas there.

2007-02-22 [xido]: OOC: Great, [Estantia]! I love your motivation to keep the peace. If your Clan would like to start a Counsel of Peace, I would be willing to host it from the Temple of the Light. One of my unwritten storylines with no players involved was of that nature. Feel free to initiate that, if it suits your Human Clans fancy. The first human Clan will certainly be a memorable one. ;)

[Xarzi], please review the older comments for this page. It is both a RP area, a Council for RPers, and a place to network with others either in-character, or, as I am now, as a moderator.

The Wiki Fiction Roleplay has sponsored this Council, and the-roleplay-initiative supports its ideals.

[Fizban], please hang around and see what happens. Maybe seeing it in action will help. Estantia is right, the forum will help you. Everyone has been added, and soon people will be able to add themselves, but for now, to keep order, I would like to be the only person who adds people to the forum for right now.

This page has both short-term and long-term goals, so please be patient with me for all of them. I am only one person. This Council is for all of us together. Clans can make their own structure for acceptance of members as Representatives, but I would like all Clans to accept any Elftowner as a member who is willing. Laws for Representatives are as the Clan determines. The Houses will respect all internal rules, as long as they don't determine the nature of the Houses, or parties. The Elftown Constitution will soon be written, though that is a long-term goal of more than three months. ;)

IC: "[Earoluim], your admission has been noted. Are you currently a member or leader of the Lycan Clan, an organization already registered with the Draconic Clan's initiatives? If you are not the leader of this Clan, do you have the blessing of the creator of the Lycan Clan page? Please have a blessing, and the Minorities Groups Party Leader position will be in your stead," Pesh informs the new admittant and representative of the Clans.

Notes:  OOC = Out-Of-Character; IC = In-Character

2007-02-22 [Estantia]: *Grins* The thing is I wouldn't make a counsel of peace, as I said I am already part of a peace keeper clan, the 11th Clan, though I am more than happy to act as a leading representative as I'm used to this kinda stuff, making an entire other sect where the 11th clan could already do the job seems a little pointless, no?

Also the fact that the clans in the two universes could get rather mixed up if i'm not careful, particularly as we have a grudge with the other first clan.

2007-02-23 [Piercedskull]: myyuu?

2007-02-26 [Earoluim]: Yes I am a part of the Lycan clan, as for a blessing I have not but can aquire one shouldn't be difficult.

2007-02-27 [Ravenclaw]: OK I was asked to join btu I feel like an ideot not knowing what the hell I'm joining lol. Can I get a compressed synopsis?

2007-02-27 [Estantia]: it's basically an rp to sort out how different groups of creatures work in elftown and their relationships with each other (so at least we have a reference)

2007-02-27 [Earoluim]: I thought it was for all clans and races ??

2007-02-27 [Estantia]: oops, it is, I didn't even realise I typed that! It's just that I've known pierced skull play a were-wolf with her best friend as a vampire (or vice versa) which is probably why I typed that, sorry.

2007-02-27 [Earoluim]: * Chuckles * It's ok don't worry about it."

2007-02-28 [Ravenclaw]: umm ok. I think I'm still confused lol

2007-02-28 [Estantia]: about which bit?
