#pax query

So you're probably all wondering how your characters are going to recover their memories and regain lost powers. In order to promote activity and reward roleplayers for their efforts, participation in events will grant characters Pax Points (PP). You can exchange PP for memories or a slight recovery in powers.

Point distribution is as follows:

2PP for starting an event related thread (open and/or closed) 1PP when a thread you started gets a reply (granted only for the first reply) 2PP for responding to an event thread (again, open and/or closed) 1PP for every 5 notes in an event thread (to all involved parties) 1PP bonus at the end of calculations for lengthy posts (roughly 4+ paragraphs)

Exchange rates for for prizes are as follows:

10PP for a short flashback 20PP for a significant memory 30PP for a small recover in power

These prizes are not meant to immediately help your character remember their home universe right away or fully recover their powers in a short time. A single short flashback may not make sense without context, and even a significant memory might be brushed off as a dream if on its own. However, three minor flashbacks and two significant memories will be much more helpful in remembering.

Bits & Pieces

- PP is calculated one week after the end of an event; replies to event threads will count toward PP count until the calculation date. - Prizes are redeemable within two weeks of PP tally dates. - However, you may only redeem one prize per event, so choose carefully. - PP will carry over between events to allow people to save up and spend when they choose. - PP is non-transferable between characters, so try to distribute activity evenly among characters you wish to focus on.

If you have any questions, please send us a message as opposed to asking on twitter since other people may have the same question!

I checked the fc master list and I don’t believe there was a reserve in first place?

Unless one of our mods missed it, however it doesn’t seem to be an issue that’s good!

It’s quite straightforward, we work like any other masterlist. Once you have an original character in mind, you’ll have to make a separate blog for the character and fill out the application form provided. Once you submit your blog to us, the mod team will check your application and add you to the ML. Once approved, you can interact with the other affiliated blogs!

I hope this answers your question!

It looks like this is a mistake on the mod team’s part as we forgot to add a rule to clarify this point, but Pax Harmonica will only be accepting illustrated faceclaims for characters. One of the reasons we created this group was that there are many oc rp groups that use real people as face claims, but none that use illustrated face claims.

Sorry about the lack of clarification!

Both! We have this in the character section of our rules, to quote:

Series-based OCs are acceptable as long as they do not bear overwhelming resemblance to a preexisting canon character or have forced themselves into an important niche in the canon universe. For example, a Kuroko no Basuke OC who is the twin sister of Akashi Seijuro and the manager of Seirin is not an acceptable original character for our purposes.

Hope that answers your question!
