gaia_star If you OWN A CHARACTER: You may sign up for both your week 1 and week 2 characters at the same time (see below).
gaia_star If you DO NOT OWN A CHARACTER: You only need to sign up for one character. You can either make a Horseman character from scratch for this meta (disposable) OR use a STUDENT QUEST ONLY. This character will be used for the entire meta duration.
gaia_star Again, we are doing this so we can pre-register characters early for the archiving tarots on the minis site. If you do not have a minipets account, it only takes 5 seconds to register here and will give you the full benefits of the snooping on others and your own characters when the meta begins!
gaia_star If you own multiple characters, you are allowed to register a max of two characters for Week 1 and two characters for Week 2. If you HAVE NO CHARACTERS, just register one character for now!
gaia_star That's it! Enjoy, have fun, these are just signups so take it easy! Don't forget to join our meta related Discord! Announcements, bonuses, and even games that are meta related will happen HERE

STEP 1: SIGNING UP YOUR CHARACTER(S)
gaia_crown[ IF YOU HAVE NO EXISTING CHARACTERS:]
gaia_starCLICK THE SPOILER TAG FOR HOW TO:
gaia_starWe don't need any extra info for signups other than their name + clan + arcana (see below).
gaia_star You may pick to either register with a disposable character or a quest character. Don't worry, for disposable characters, if you like them a lot, you are free to make a quest with them end of meta! Nobody dies
gaia_star For disposable characters you are just making a Horseman character! You can pick any clan, and give them Y1 stats. Give them a fancy Horseman name. That's all you have to do, pick a clan, pick a name, give them an appearance if you wish. It will be the same character for the entire meta. If you'd like to read more on clans, click the spoiler below!
gaia_crown[ Horseman ] are an archaic faction based off four different clans. Each clan has different values and sets of beliefs, though being a legacy of the far, far, past, many have adapted quite poorly to the modern times. Horsemen live in a tower, separated into four different clans. They also invade passively the Human world to create their envisioning of a proper end of the world.
War -Theme: A tribe that has equally strong female and male fighters of the Amazon. All clan members fight and are well equipped, prefer clothing that can fit them well without hindering their battle, littered in all their spoils and trophies of war. They are a winged tribe that prefers to live in the large forested canopy and prefer natural dyes and colourations. Potential inspiration - Avatar, Apocalypto, various other things Weapons - a SIMPLE bladed weapon, has to be dagger OR short sword shaped. Handmade or carved. Cannot be forged.
Famine - Theme: Desert themed, nomadic tribe. Heavily clothed, prefer sandy, pale colours and robes, as well as jewelry and ornaments around their wrists, necks, and legs. Potential inspiration - Bug themed body horror, Journey, most horror movies Weapons - a SIMPLE extended weapon, has to be chained OR weighted. Handmade, crude metal working. Cannot be forged or carved.
Death - Theme: Dark, muted colours, fur, coat ruffs, cloaks, often Nordic themes, jewellery heavy. Potential inspiration - Skyrim, Game of Thrones etc Weapons - a SIMPLE curved weapon, has to be sickle OR scimitar shaped. Forged. Cannot be carved or handmade.
Conquest - Theme: East orient themed, the only tribe that rules through lineage eligibility, territorial. Prefer silk/ exotic clothing, hair accessories/ornaments, heavily decorated hair/necklace/etcetera ornaments. Potential inspiration - Any amount of media depicting east orient cultures Weapons - a SIMPLE long ranged weapon, has to be bow OR short spear shaped. Carved or forged- cannot be handmade.
gaia_star For quest characters, you may rp a STUDENT quest. Take your quest, and give them a Horseman clan, appearance, and name. Again if you are unfamiliar with horseman, you can go here for more information. This will be your one character you will be rping for the entire duration.

gaia_star You can CHOOSE to either convert them to a Hunter appearance OR a Hunter weapon. (For both Horsemen, and Students).
gaia_star WEAPONS: You will need to pick a weapon. You can THINK on this this is literally irrelevant to signups. Basically if you decide to keep your character as the Hunter, design a weapon and appearance for your weapon for them. IE: My weapon is a Spear, it's name is Steve, it originally was a bladed dragon).
