The wind whispers of change. And change begets change. What will the
future hold for the Kindred of Athens? What pattern will their choices
knit in the threads that are their fate? And how will it play out in the
long run?

VST Notes we’re playing under the Requiem VSS which can be found here!

I’d like all those attending to have their various Precasts ready to PM
to the VST, along with a paragraph or so on feeding. This way we can
REALLY speed up the VSS Precasts and Feeding. Covenant locals are able
to help visitors with feeding pointers! All your PC has to do is ask.

All character sheets must have the following information with them: XP
Log & Approval #’s if any.
Other venue specific requirements imposed by the GIRC VST may be asked
for as needed. GIRC Storytellers reserve the right to refuse any PC or
proxy or late request into the game and reserve the right to ask you not
to use powers that may be unbalancing to game play.
GIRC Domain Checkin Policy: The 48 hour rule was lifted. Given that GIRC
is an online game, and the ease of attending is therefore much higher
than a game you would have to physically travel to OOC, we understand
the desire of the Camarilla membership to have the freedom to attend
games on short notice. GIRC welcomes all visitors, but ask that when you
travel to the GIRC game you copy your storyteller on the e-mail with
your sheet and travel arrangements. The ST staff retains the right to
refuse check-in once game has started, or to delay the check in of any
player who arrives after game start until such a time as checking in the
player will not cause a disruption to the flow of the game. If the GIRC
staff finds at any point that your character would have been unable to
attend the game (due to time freeze, proxy issues, or any other reason)
your XP for the game will be withdrawn and appropriate disciplinary
measures will be taken.
The Venue Storytellers and GIRC Coordinator personnel reserve the right
to deal with player disruptions properly and accordingly. Players who
cause overly large problems or disruptions may find their experience
point rewards reduced or eliminated, their PCs frozen or kicked from the
game, and the issue referred to the appropriate coordinator chain for
resolution.
All nicks and tags attached to nicknames are to be left up to the VST in
charge of the Game/Scene. If you have any problems with a tag, please
raise it with the VST and VST alone. There will be No open arguments or
discussions in the Channel about this. Whether intentional or
unintentional, it causes stress & problems. Don’t do it in #girc-ooc.
*No* interaction within GIRC borders is considered soft RP Only. There
is always a risk involved. If you send character sheets to any other
account besides the ones listed above they WILL NOT be accepted.
GIRC Domain members who want to play but might show up late are asked to
register the time they can start with the Requiem ST staff for proper
placement of your plot cookies.
Darkmyst Server Starting Channel: #girc-ooc
Further instructions and in character game rooms will be posted there
and periodically throughout the game. Please make sure to read all
topics and entry messages in all the channels you are directed to – Both
OOC and IC. If you need to close and reopen the channel window to get
that information refreshed for you, feel free to do so.
Descriptions of characters attending game may be deposited upon:
http://girc.camarilla-resource.net/index.php?title=GIRC_Requiem_Char_Descriptions
Placing your PC’s description on this wiki page saves multiple copies
being typed onto IC channels as your PC moves from one room to another.
Challenge Channel: #girc
All challenges will be done in channels approved and logged by the ST
staff and Gameserv.
Greek is the default language of the GIRC Athens game. If your character
is speaking a language besides Greek, please indicate that in your
nickname on IRC as either John_Smith[Eng] or *Eng* “Hello,
my name is John Smith.” If you’re not doing this, then it is assumed
that your PC is speaking Greek while the player continues typing what is
said in English.
Please be kind to your fellow players who use alternate software
settings or hardware to overcome visual challenges. Do not override
default settings and force black to be the text color for the words that
you type in when using IRC. This is GIRC Policy and reserved for the
Storytellers’ use during game time.
