Characters at Mind Over Matter are not activity required to keep. However, we do require activity and participation in order for your character to grow and advance in stage. This shop works off of a point system, known as PSI Points. There are 10 PSI Points to a PSI Rank. Certain levels of Rank must be achieved, along with a small checklist of other accomplishments, before a character qualifies for growth. PSI Points can be acquired in any number of ways, from roleplaying, writing journal entries, to event and even game participation.
Every Camper starts at PSI Rank 1 and every Student starts at PSI Rank 20. Your PSI Rank does not reset per growth; the rank you have is permanent and you only need to acquire the points to make up the difference. For instance, a Student growing to Recruit only needs to progress 20 PSI Ranks, rather than a whole 40.

We encourage a variety of methods in order to gain points and are hoping to make point acquisition relatively easy. Below is a list of the main methods to gain PSI Points and increase a character's PSI Rank. In the event you have more than one character, you must choose which one you want to distribute the points you earned through Extra Credit to.
