In Finding Sanctuary, the activities you do will earn you experience and Dehlars (still $). In this journal you can see how things are graded depending on the category, as well as how levelling works. 

MASTERLIST

One of the biggest changes to Finding Sanctuary is how we manage and consistently maintain our member's resources. No longer are you responsible for your own currency, now we fill out the Masterlist. 

The masterlist allows someone to look up their discord username and have information pulled for view. The first prompt, User Database, will allow you to look up yourself or another user from the discord and see what characters they have, how much money they have, their items, and whether the activity check has been done.

The second page, Character Database,  allows you to use the full name of a registered character to see their power, their statistics, their reference, etc. If you find there is information missing, please inform us in either a ticket or via #help-desk within the server!

LEVELING

Your character, as you participate in and around the group will earn experience and be able to put that towards going up in levels. You start at Level 1, and can cap out at Level 20. Though we are still ironing out our gaming system, levelling is confirmed to be a way to progress your character mechanically through the group. The experience "currency" can be earned through drawing or writing submissions, information covered below.

Starting at Level 1, to progress to Level 2 you must earn 50 experience. Upon reaching 50 experience, you hit Level 2, your current experience is set to zero, and your next needed amount to reach is an extra +25 to the previous total, making it 75. 

Level 2 → 50
Level 3 → 75
Level 4 → 100
Level 5 → 125
...And so on so forth, until Level 20. 

CURRENCY

In Finding Sanctuary, the mod team keeps record of your Dehlars and your character's total Experience as well as their Reputation tokens. You may also keep all of this information on a personal tracker if you wish, but it is the masterlist that will remain as up to date as possible. To redeem rewards for art, literature, or other activities you have participated in, we ask you look in the discord server and follow the instructions laid out within #art-n-rp and #quests channels that can be found there. A Lorekeeper or Librarian will help you as soon as they can!

Everything that they grade will be based on the point scale below, and be given out at once. Keep in mind, if the image is static or a simple fullbody as stated in the Experience section, it will only be counted for Dehlars, not experience.

Please Note; As of January 24th, 2020 it is asked that you have a maximum of ten separate sketches on a sketchdump, and that they be clearly labeled from one to ten. This is to make it easier to count for the Librarians. Thank you! <3

DEHLARS

Money, known universally as the world’s Dehlar, is the primary award earned through quests, events and general group participation by way of writing submissions, or art submissions. You will find that you more often earn money and get more of it than experience so it can be spent at the group’s shop. Along with experience, everything will be recorded within the masterlist -- so if you're curious about how much you have available, check there! 

To be counted for Dehlars, RP posts must be a minimum of 200 words.

EXPERIENCE

Experience is earned primarily through event participation, roleplay, and quests. Some can be earned from your art or writing, it just won't get the RP bonus. Whether you write or draw, it can't be a static story or image. Can’t just be a fullbody -- what is your character doing? What are they interacting with? Having your character experience something is what will earn them experience after all!  Images counting for experience must have the character obviously doing something or interacting with something, whether that be the background or another character, or a prop. It has to be dynamic and not "static". If you're unsure, please feel free to ask!

For RP posts to be counted for Experience, they must be at least 200 words. Anything less won't be counted for EXP.

For an RP to be counted as an RP, they must have a minimum of 3 posts per person.

Miscellaneous Rewards
+n - If we’ve noticed something that does not fit within the above categories, a compensation will be discussed between the admins and given as appropriate!

Grading and Reassessment

If you have a concern regarding your amount given once graded, please open a ticket within the Finding Sanctuary Discord Server and an admin will look to see if something was missed or a mistake was made within the assessment.
