At some point in time, a character may want or need and alignment change.
There can be several reasons for this. Something might happen in the
characters life that changes his view of the world, the player might decide that he is having a hard time with his chosen alignment, or the imms and nobles might determine that a character is not playing by the rules of their chosen alignment.
Although players may change alignment, it is not something that should be
approached lightly, since there are serious consequences. When a character
changes alignment, he does more than just change his attitudes. He is
altering his perception of the world and his relationship to it. Much of
what he learned previously was flavored by his alignment. When the
philosophical foundations of his life change, the character discovers that
he must relearn things he thought he knew. Because of these reasons, any
alignment changes that occur will result in a small experience reduction. This experience loss is not to penalize the character or saying that the player has done something bad or not role-playing properly, but is the
result of the characters changed perception of the world. The amount of
experience lost will be determined by the immortals and is dependent on how
drastic the alignment change is. There will be no exceptions to this rule.
If you think that you want an alignment change, you will be informed of the amount of experience that will be lost before the change and will have the
option of proceeding or not. If you decide not to change your alignment,
you must continue to role-play your original alignment according to the guidelines found in the corresponding help files.
If you want to request an alignment change for your character, you must:
- Write the story behind it. That means the IC reasons behind the change.
These reasons must be sent to the histories mailing list (help email),
and must have at least around 200 words. If your character is
changing, then he probably has a nice story behind that change.
- Write a note the roleplay council (NOTE TO RP), telling us you
already sent the story to the histories e-mail. In your note, include
your current alignment and the new alignment that you would like to have.
An immortal will get back to you letting you know what the cost of the change will be.
