 In the beginning, there was nothing but darkness and void.
And then...
There was YOU.

The following is a basic break down of the Dawn of Worlds rules. These are condensed from the original rules that can be found in the below pdf.
Dawn of Worlds PDF
Gameplay takes place in three parts- The Age of Lands, The Age of Races, and The Age of Relations.
Each Age has a particular focus; the Age of Lands focuses of shaping the land, the Age of Races focuses on the creation of Races, and the Age of Relations focuses on developing the relationships between different races and cities. Depending on the Age, each round lasts a specfic amount of in-game time. A Land Age round lasts 500 in-game years. A Race Age round lasts 100 in-game years. A Relations Age round lasts 5 in-game years.
Each Age lasts a minimum of 5 rounds. After the first 5 rounds, players vote on whether they would like to continue the age for another five rounds or move onto the next age. After 10 rounds, another vote will be taken. If more than half of the players vote to move on, the age will move on. If not, the moment there are enough people that support moving onto the next age will be the round that we move on.
In order to do things to the world, power points must be used. The number of power points a specific action requires is based on which Age it currently is. Each player starts with 5 power points plus 2d6 (2 six-sided dice).
The following is a table of the available world-affecting actions that can be taken, along with their power point cost in the different ages.
Normally, this is the part where you'd find the rules. If you've been in any RP before, or simply just looked around, you should already know the basics. So I'm not going to waste your time by going into them. If you honestly need me to explain the basic rules, send me, Agent Sinistra, a PM and I'll be more than happy to help you out.
The following are guidelines that need to be followed when posting in this game.
Be literate.
Your posts need to be written using proper grammar, or at the very least, look like you tried. Use spell check. Write in complete sentences. Don't use txt or chat speak when posting in character.
Follow the post formatting rules.
Make your posts as pretty or plain as you like. Just keep in mind that they need to be readable. Should someone complain that they can't read your posts, either because the font's too small or the colors are hard to read, you will be expected to make changes (within reason) from your next post on.
Outside of appearances, be sure to mark OOC (either as comments or game mechanics related) with < >. ALL IC posts should have your current points listed somewhere, regardless of whether you are world building or not in that post.
Don't be a d**k.
Players should be nice, or at the very least polite to one another. Have some consideration when shaping the world. Just because your character has the power to potentially kill off/destroy the creations of your fellow players doesn't mean that you should.

I, Agent Sinistra, am the final arbiter.
If there's a problem that occurs and the rules don't cover it, I will be the one that decides what the final outcome will be.
