Please take the time to familiarize yourself with the world of Raven's Keep: characters, settings, and rules. We strongly recommend you take a look at the posting archives (accessible to the public) to get an idea of the game flow and atmosphere.

You must create an original character, and submit to the list moderators a character profile, as well as a small sample of your writing (it only needs to be a paragraph or two). You can also use this form to directly submit your character.

Profiles must contain the following elements:

1. Character Name
2. Character Race (Human, Elf, Gnome, Demon, etc...)
3. Character Appearance
4. Character History
5. Character Personality
6. Capabilities (weapons used, skills, powers,etc...)

Profiles that do not follow this basic format will not be considered.

Optionally, you may send one picture (no more) of your character.

Here are a few things to keep in mind when creating your character:

• Until further notice, we are no longer accepting vampire characters.
• No Gods or Goddesses. That is, no invincible or ultra-powerful characters. A character may be immortal, but must have their fair share of weaknesses and vulnerabilities.
• Since this is a medieval-fantasy RPG, no modern or futuristic weapons, such as guns, are allowed.

Once your character has been approved by the moderators, you may join the Ravenskeep list. You will need to get a Yahoo! account, if you do not already have one. It's free, easy and quick. Simply follow the appropriate links from the game main page.
