Prestige Titles!

[Nostra]

Prestige titles are now open for Grunts to apply for!

To apply you will have to have been active on the server for at least two months, been "gruntified" and have a special profile for the character intended for prestige title OK'ed by a higher up GM before beginning the training process.

A character needs to be approved before being able to apply for a prestige title and needs to both have the proper motivation to strive for it as well as a realistic chance to do so. This will be be covered in the special template provided for prestige titles, the template can soon be found on the Wiki, until then see bellow.

To achieve the title there are two ways to go, either by IC training in game and on the forums with another player's character that has X title, or if there is noone alliavable you can "invent" a master-NPC to teach your character through forum posts.

All powers and spells a character aquires through the process must be discussed with a GM first, the GMs also retains the power to "retcon" events deemed inapproptiate if necessary as well as deny anyone we feel would not handle the powers comming with a prestige title due to the risk for god/meta/powergaming.

Examples of training posts for prestige titles can be seen here:
The Slave and The Demon Hunter

Explanation of how it will be used icly:

EDIT: The application should be sent to a GM for consideration.

Edit: Addition to the rule regarding Prestige Titles: You may only have one at a time, as long as you have a prestige alive you cannot apply for another. And to kill them off just to get a chance to create a new one that sounds more interesting will just see to you being denied.

Great news! Now all I need is to be gruntified.. And around an extra month here.

But yes, anyways, this is super!

Interesting...!

But I don't think I'll be using this system for a long time, if at all. But it is good for adding diversity to our classes, I guess!

.... Niiiiiiice!

This'll be awesome.

Oh I've got a baaad feeling about this. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. :roll:

Quick question:

It says the character needs to have an approved character sheet template. Do you need to post their profile as normal, or post it to a GM to get OK'd for the special profiles, THEN post the Prestige template to a GM to get that OK'd aswell?

Something I was a bit confused about.

[Mikain]

It has to be normally approved, then later on included in the prestige app.

For those inquiring to what entails a Prestige Class here is a list of them.

Hopefully not all will flock to the prestige class immediately, but perhaps use it as a form of progression, or story reinforcement.

Gotcha, thanks a lot!

Since you have to "train" to become one during a longer period of time it would be hard to use it as something else, hehe.

[Armistad]

Well noted and totally agreed upon.

[Monolith]

Are all of those prestige titles- excluding ones that player classes can not obtain- available?

[Mikain]

Possibly, we for sure won't allow some of them, but the majority are fine.

I like this idea, but I think people just need to remember to be reasonable about it. Not everyone needs to be prestige.
