EVERYONE, GM post is coming either February 1st or February 2nd, dependent on my work schedule. This post will advance the timeline from the evening, to the next morning. Unless you otherwise specify, it will be assumed that your character found a place to sleep. (Thus, you don't need to specifically role play your character finding a place to sleep--it's assumed they found one. Much like usage of the bathroom: You don't need to tell me how you found a bed when they're freely available.)
This is a major point in the plot for two reasons.
#1: During the morning sequence, Kouri is going to be told by Gregory and others where they can go. There will be a small but important list of potential paths that the party can take to travel towards their objective, each having advantages and disadvantages. Player characters can directly contribute toward these and influence what choice Kouri will make. All of you get to choose where you will go next in your (now shared) quest to banish the Gods. You'll be given more information on your available choices when the time comes. Remember: Your choices will hold a direct and deep impact on the story later. The NPC's you meet, conflicts you resolve, and issues you confront, will be directly related to your previous decisions. Think carefully before making a concrete choice.
#2: This is the first limited recruitment zone. Whenever we reach these zones, additional spots may be opened in the story for players to create second characters, or for new players to join in the story. Limited recruitment zones have additional caveats to the usual character creation process, so as to ensure the story remains sensibly coherent in spite of new characters showing up to join Kouri's repertoire. If a PC has died prior to reaching this point, that player gets to automatically retake their own spot and create a new character. Otherwise, I'll quietly and privately invite interested persons, since there won't be much space opening up here--we already have a lot of players, after all.
If you are attempting to join Legend of Renalta with a new character, here are the caveats to consider.
Let's get it on.
Oh, and @Kadaeux is officially a Co-GM now, to help with the workload.

If you are attempting to join Legend of Renalta with a new character, here are the caveats to consider.
- King's Ranger: Your character doesn't have to directly be a King's Ranger, but they should at least be affiliated with them sufficiently so that they can be present in the King's Rangers base where Kouri presently is. You can read more quick Q&A notes here and here to better understand the world, including the King's Rangers. I will eventually compile all of this into the first post. Eventually. If you have additional questions about the King's Rangers and their affiliates, ask me (either over Skype, Steam, or in this OOC. If you leave it in the OOC, someone else may be able to answer it if I'm too busy to respond.) It would, of course, also be a good idea to read the first OOC post if you haven't already.
- Witness?: Your new character may have directly witnessed the ceremony that proved Kouri's legitimacy. If they did, it may be helpful to read this post specifically, since it features the entire ceremony.
- Start Condition?: Your character should have access to mundane equipment of many types, from light to heavy armour. As stated prior, they should have access to the King's Rangers base within the grassy foothills of the Renaltan Remnants, and have a relationship with the King's Rangers of some sort. They should be present in the base for a minimum of a couple days, so as to be able to cross paths with Kouri.
- Motivation?: Your character will need a motivation to follow Kouri around. This goes for every character, but this is more of a friendly reminder. The fact that she's a legendary figure makes it fairly easy to find a myriad of reasons for desiring to follow her.
- Training Limits?: None. Your character can be of any walk of life, so long as they're not deliberately evil. Characters who murder the innocent would not ever be given access to King's Rangers facilities. You can be a rogue, a warrior, a wizard--anything your imagination can come up with... So long as it isn't overpowered, of course.
- Race Limits?: Be whatever race you want. The King's Rangers are a multiracial organization.
- Homeland Limits?: If your character was born outside of the Renaltan Remnants, they'll have needed to have arrived there within the past two years to be able to generate enough of a relationship with the King's Rangers to have access to their base. Aside from that, they can be from anywhere in the world.
- How Many Slots?: Three more slots are opening (to expand the total from 13 to 16). One is guaranteed to @Snakey (because nepotism) so it's effectively two.
- Deadline?: Complete your CS and have it approved by February 6th in order to join this role play. That gives you over a week to finish your CS.
- Will there be more limited recruitment areas in the future?: Yes, but they'll be restricted to whatever conditions make the most sense in the area. It would, for instance, make no sense to have a mage recruit appear in Rheinfeld--a kingdom that loathes all mages and wishes to see them all destroyed. So keep this in mind when making your character, it may not fit into future recruitment areas without heavy modification.
Let's get it on.
