Welcome to Fallout: Requiem— where life begins after total atomic annihilation.
#CANON: Guidelines and Expectations
All in-character threads associated with Fallout: Requiem and its debut roleplay, A Requiem for Spring are welcome here in the #canon subforum. By associated, I mean past, present, or future stories that will affect the world, lore, and characters of the realm. While not every story, character, and plot thread need be "accepted" or "approved", this means that there's an inherent understanding to embody the realm-provided lore or at the very least, respect the effort put into curating it. I highly encourage creative freedom and the creation of new lore and will do my best to integrate player-created lore into the realm where I can.
I will also be periodically poking into threads within the #canon subforum to compile juicy DEETS for the quarterly Wasteland Press, a mock-journal publish wherein realm announcements, highlights, and roleplay sparkles will be on display.
As long as the IC (alternatively, character indexes and partner searches) are housed within the realm, all locations, major npcs, and concepts for Fallout: Requiem are free to use and reference in any and all stories within the #canon subforum, provided they don't break any already established lore.
TO NOTE: A rare sex scene hidden in spoilers or written as fade-to-black between people in the same age group is completely acceptable here, just as it is in Group Stories. Anything beyond that, however, and the thread will need to be moved to Red/Bluestar. If your thread needs moved, please feel free to reach out to me, the F:R mods, or Iwaku's Move-Thread form!

PREFIXES
Thread prefixes are colorful tags displayed before a thread's title. They can be chosen when creating a thread or afterwards, by selecting "edit thread" from the 'more options' menu above the very first post. More than one prefix can be applied as well! These prefixes show what a thread is for and you can easily filter through them by selecting a prefix within the forum.
The prefixes within Fallout: Requiem were chosen and curated to be multipurpose, due to the Realm limitation of 10. Some are recognizable and some are completely new to the site! Described below are the ones intended to be used for in-character threads:
The prefixes within Fallout: Requiem were chosen and curated to be multipurpose, due to the Realm limitation of 10. Some are recognizable and some are completely new to the site! Described below are the ones intended to be used for in-character threads:
STORY
- This prefix is used to designate any and all roleplays, regardless of whether they're run by me, fellow GMs, or are 1x1 creations.OPEN
- Threads which have the prefix Open indicate that the roleplay, interest check, or partner search is currently open and accepting new players and/or partners. CLOSED
- The Closed prefix displays at-a-glance knowledge that roleplays, interest checks, or partner searches are not accepting new players or partners at this time. Alternating between Open and Closed prefixes is a good way to grab attention and avoid unneeded inquiries. MISSION EVENT
- This is another multipurpose prefix, meant to be a catch-all for the following types of events: sandbox events including both prose and charp styles, first response roleplays (typically 1x1s), important announcements regarding the realm as a whole or new and upcoming roleplays. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out, otherwise...
Happy Roleplaying in the Wasteland!
