For those of you interested in taking a look at the premise, you might read the interest check thread.
([ Objective ])
This thread exists to prepare — and perhaps, later, maintain — the metaroleplay, and also to facilitate the discussion and finalization of its nature.
Many points of discussion will be purely based upon the preferences of the players here; however, as some subjects may require the weighing of merit one way or another, input from nonparticipating members on Iwaku is also welcome.
In addition to the checklist, there may be other subjects worth discussing. If something felt critical hasn't been added to the checklist, by all means — please — do point it out!

So, let's begin!
On the nature of character descriptions: Do we wish to represent them via text, photography, graphic art, or something else?
My personal habit is text-based descriptions, which allows me to play with things other than mere appearance, though it could be argued that this can be felt to be pedantic and often inefficient.
