Navigating the Realm

Main Forum
All in character (IC) threads for the roleplay will be found here. Each thread can have two prefixes, the first one denoting where it takes place (Sky, Land, Underground), the second denoting its availability (Master Game, Private, Open).

Master Game - Specifies that the thread is a part of the main plotline. Only the GM and Co-GMs may create threads with this prefix. Anyone with an approved character is free to join.

Open - A side-story or pre-roleplay (prp) that anyone with an approved character may join. These can be run by any player.

Private - A side-story or prp that is open only to a group of members. These can be run by any player but only those part of it should post in these threads.


Registry Sub-forum
Where the out of character (ooc) threads and character sheets can be found.

Decree - Denotes that the thread contains an official announcement from the GM. Only threads made by the GM and Co-GMs should have this prefix.

Orientation - Reserved for threads containing information that will help the player understand more about the roleplay and the world of Golden City.

Citizen File - Used for threads that contain a player’s character sheets. Members must tag their thread with this prefix when making an application.

Bulletin Board - Threads where the player is seeking out a partner/s for their side story (see Side Stories for more information about the side story application process). Threads with this prefix may also serve as the ooc thread for the side story.


Chronicles Sub-forum

Serves as the realm’s archive. Contains threads of completed roleplays and the citizen files of former players.

Registry Threads


A quick rundown of the sticky threads
Golden City - Your holy grail for information regarding the world of Golden City. Thread includes a detailed description of Golden City's layers, notable locations, history, lore, etc. The first two posts of this thread is a must read for those looking to join the roleplay.

Denizens - Here you can find the list of roles and organisations that you may create a character for. This is a must read for people interested in joining the roleplay.

Regulations - Contains the list of rules that govern the realm, both in character and out of character. This is a must read thread for people interested in joining the roleplay.

Registry - Where you can get the character sheet form to fill out for your character. Found here as well is a sheet containing the list of players and their respective characters.

Inquiries - Got a question about the realm? Not sure about something? This is the thread for that! Ask your questions about the realm here. (Note: It is advised to ask questions in the thread rather than over the discord server for other players to see.)

Side Stories - Where side stories are filled in for application. Side story plots must undergo approval first before being run, just to make sure it's within the bounds of Golden City and whatnot.

Getting Started


Signing Up
Step 1: Read the necessary readings (Golden City, Denizens, Regulations)

Step 2: Fill out the registry form found in the Registry thread under the Registry sub-forum (Yes, that is a lot of registries in one sentence :'D)

Step 3: Post your filled out form in a thread with the title being your username and with a 'citizen file' prefix.

If it is your second time creating a character, there is no need to create a new citizen file thread. Just post your sheet for your new character in your existing citizen file.

Step 4: Wait for approval. A like rating from the GM or co-GMs means your character has been approved.

Once your character has been approved, you may start posting in the main game thread, join a side story, or even run your own. We hope you have fun here in Golden City!
