Tiers

 Tier One 

-The Tier-One role play style is the hallmark of most combat-based role-play situations. It is typically defined as “paragraph” role play. This means that players who enter into a Tier-One match should be willing to first have well-defined character abilities (see biography tips) and able to produce a post greater than 400 words. Tier-One skills are generally dictated by a role-players ability to write and by the constraints of the role-play environment. Post times for Tier-One fights are generally never greater than three days and posts can range in length from half a page to four or five pages.

 Tier Two 

-The Tier-Two role play style is mostly common among those who are just learning how to role-play or who have little experience. It is a very broad style or role play and can see posts that range from a few sentences to about a page or a page and a half. Generally Tier-Two role play is only acceptable for continuous training or in-character dialogue.

 Tier Three 

-Tier Three role play is generally useless in any form of role play except as a means through which short dialogue interactions, out-of-character emotions, and skeletal training posts may be conveyed. Most often players don’t even see Tier-Three posts that depict battle situations because the mechanics of the style don’t permit posts long enough to convey real physical interaction. Tier Three posts are usually only a few sentences long.

 Novella 

-The Novella role play style is perhaps the least common form of role play. It is generally only used between players who are very elaborate or for combat situations that require immense amounts of writing. Novella posts are very technical in their details and often have flourishing descriptions of environments and actions between characters. Novella-style posts are never shorter than five pages.
