Xp in the Earth A "Xavier's Academy" Game is distributed in the following manner.
Live Game
At live game sessions, players who attend earn 3-6 xp with our nightly best player being awarded 2 bonus xp
The XP breakdown is a follows:
(1) Attendance
(1) Participation
(1-2) RP
(1-2) Helping others enjoy the game
Forum
Every person who plays in the forums and posts on average 5X's in a month will earn 1 xp for a base of 12 per year.
Players who exist on forum primary and cannot make (for medical or geographic reasons) regular games (less than 4 per year) earn an additional 1 per month
Additionally if they play in an associated online plot thread related to the current live game plot they will earn 1 for each live game session we play.
This will keep any online players from falling too far behind those playing live and allow them to participate in the plots going on in the game as a whole.
Bonus XP
At any point, in ANY venue the GM may award exceptional rp with bonus XP. The xp may come in the direct form of open xp or it may take come to the player as a new power or skill earned through exceptional rp.
To clarify, what I consider exceptional rp involve truly super heroic actions, helping other players in character development and growth as well as doing scenes and rp that show actual growth on the part of the characters you rp.
Occasionally I will review the character journals and personal stories and there may be minor rewards for those (1-4 pts per year max)
If people are interested in earning more xp then volunteering to help me with the game is another way to earn xp. I already have two recording secretaries so that position is filled. However, running an approved story for others is a way to earn some bonus xp. To do so, you must create a storyline and present it to me in writing for me to look over and approve. All characters (villains etc) will be built by the GM.
Under NO circumstances will I be giving XP for Karma. Karma is a measure of how much you guys like each other's posts, but is generally a lopsided way to issue xp as the same people tend to get all the benefits while others are left out. (so don't bother to ask, I won't be changing my mind)
If there are any questions please pm or hit me in gchat.
Excelsior!
