In order to play on Fales and Fantasy, you must be whitelisted. The whitelisting process, while seemingly daunting, is actually quite simple and we're here to help you every step of the way. You can apply on our forums. And fret not, for this page will help you with the process all the way through!
Step One - Creating Your Application
In order for one’s application to be approved, there are several criteria that an application must adhere to in order to be accepted. While they may seem like a lot, they assist us in knowing where you might need to improve and what you have a good grasp upon. More specific requirements are listed on the application page on the forums.
Your application and character must be your own work. Plagiarism is not tolerated on Fables & Fantasy at all and performing such on your application is an instant denial. Basing your character off of another is one thing, but there’s a difference between basing and carbon copying. Your character must be written to the best of your ability, conveying their personality, appearance, and backstory clearly. Grammar and spelling must also be carried out to the best of one’s abilities. We aren’t seeking perfection, but it helps the process go a lot smoother and makes the application easier to understand.
Please keep in mind that a backstory is the very beginning of a character's story! There are countless opportunities for your character to become a Noble, a King, a Wizard, but, they are not allowed to begin with powerful relationships, connections, magic, or items in their possession in their backstory. This is important for a few reason. First, we like to keep our lore consistent; if everyone could start a noble house the second they apply, it would be chaos! Secondly, we want to give everyone a fair start; it wouldn't be fair for player A to begin as a powerful Archmage, while player B is a simple farmer.
Please also make sure to keep your character's skin and Physical description consistent with our racial lore. For each race's page, you'll find some guidelines on height, eye and hair colour, and other physical characteristics that must be followed for an application to be accepted.
Tips for Applying
1. Your Backstory response should be written in the Third Person. This means while describing your or the dwarf's actions, you should use "He/She/They" respectively. When speaking your character is free to use I, if they are referring to themselves. Here is a simple example:
He walked into the tent, raising a brow towards the dwarf. "I wasn't expecting you of all people! What a day this has been.."
2. You are welcome to reference the Recent History of the server that your character would have been alive to know about, or one of the major hubs of civilization that they live or lived in. This helps root your character in our world, and gives you a head start on integrating yourself into the world of Lord of the Craft.
Step Two - Application Stages
After you have set up your application and posted it, you wait. Depending on how many applicants have submitted at a given time, expect your application to be reviewed within about 24-48 hours, so do not feel as if your application was forgotten or ignored, the Community Team will get to it as soon as possible.
There are three responses you can receive on an application once posted; pending, denied, or accepted.
