[READ THIS FIRST] A Guide to the Republic of Alduria

[Alduria]

Building Your Aldurian Character

So you've been through the first part of the Guide... which we admit, it's a big wall of text. We're trying to provide you with all the information we can right off the bat!

And after having read all of that, you want to be part of the Republic of Alduria?

The process to join Alduria is called "applying for citizenship".

You're not actually applying for any actual citizenship or anything, so your real life citizenship won't be affected by this. This is more a process for you to join as a participant in Alduria.

You start by considering what kind of character you want. It should be noted that Alduria is a pretty diverse nation, we strongly encourage people to follow these cultures when deciding a character name. You can find a more detailed write-up in the wiki, or you can refer to the wall of text we referred to earlier... which is convenienty just a few scrolls up. 

• Think of what kind of political ideology or opinions your character will have. They should make some general sense in the Aldurian narrative constructs and remain consistent with the general backstory of the character (ideally).
  
• Think of what the background of your character is. Is your character someone who is a business owner? A teacher? A trade union leader? A politician? The possibilities are endless, really. As long as the background makes sense and is relatively consistent and realistic, you aren't likely to have problems.
  
• Your application does not have to be too detailed in the beginning. It's great if you have a decent idea and want to expand as much as you can on the first take. If not, that's fine! You have power to edit your biography after you have applied, and even after your character has been accepted. There are some considerations here: you are welcome to update your character's bio with latest electoral wins, legislative or personal achievements, or whatever else may need to be documented or included. But you cannot drastically change the character in an edit. If you want a new character, you're simply welcome to create one!
  
• You can have multiple characters in Alduria. These are called multis, or NPCs. There may be limits placed on the creation of multis in the future. But for now, all we require is that you create a citizenship form for each character and that you disclose all of your created characters in this thread serving as a Character Registry, just so we avoid any confusion or uncertainty.

In case the citizenship application form above does not work for you, feel free to use the one below!

You can copy and paste this application into a new thread, using the name of your Caputian character as the title of the new thread. It'll make it easy for people to track and refer back, and it could even be useful to you should you want to update the application with new biographical details.
