Staff's List of Desired Concepts. None of these are mandatory but are there to provide a hook for new people:
This is what staff is looking for when it comes to new characters. The suggestions can be done as a combo, where applicable or just as is. Some NPCs can be adopted, if they are listed in +news Adopting Named NPCs.
* A Child of Gods that belongs to Mataya. There is no specific concept desired for this but there is a cool secondary power (all Children of Gods gets one) for Mataya's Child that I would love to see put to use.
<p>
* Clergy - Any of the Gods. It would be especially nice to see the Archbishops of Gods that don't currently have one, as there are plots going on that involve plenty of interactions with the clergy.
* Children of Gods
* Combat Types - Recently a Holy Order of Knights has been recently established, that works along side the kingdoms' militaries, sort of. Their duty is the protect the Seat of Gods (a holy place).
** Any God but Mataya and Ossian
* Characters from Choisi Kingdom, Seat of Gods, and Divinus Kingdom - These kingdoms have the least amount of players. Choisi has an inactive Heir if someone wants to be a Princess or Prince. There is also several noble houses a person could be from. OF course there are commoner positions available. Divinus is similar except the royal house has an active Heir you can still be a princess or prince (or one who is another gender). Seat of Gods could use citizens, Courtesans, Clergy, Military. It is really very open on who lingers about the Seat of Gods.
** A Child from any Kingdom but Luminat - Note: We are trying to balance the power of the Children across all Gods. We are including characters who have left in this 'balance' as they are still, technically, there (unless they have died)
* The Children of Gods of any of the Gods, except Ossian.  
* Combat Types - Any
* Anything else a player can think of.
* People from Choisi and Santua - Choisi has 1 player, Santua has 2. All other kingdoms have 4+ characters.
* Both public and secret members of the Council of the Devoted. Keep in mind that this is made up on mainly antagonists against the current PCs. You can 100% be a person of this Council that you OOC want 'converted' from it.  
* Royalty from the Choisi, Santua, and Divinus Kingdoms
 
* Clergy for any God
* Courtesans
* Title Holders, noble or common.
* Other is whatever else that might interest a person to play.

# The people of Atharia are seeking the 'Children of Gods', citizens of Atharia who have a parent that is a God. Until recently they were hidden away for their protection. There is, currently, 15 know Children of Gods and 8 of them have been found. The people were given a necklace that glows brightly when an awakened Child of Gods is found. We absolutely welcome anyone who wants to play a Child of Gods. Unless we suddenly blow up big you can have 1 character be one.

# The Children of Gods have to complete 'herculean' tasks to ascend. How difficult the task is will depend on which God assigns it and who they are assigning it too. The Child of one God might find their task easier than a Child of another God getting a task from the same God as the first Child. Several of the tasks have been done but the tasks are more based on the player doing them than over all. So, taking part of this is more personalized to the Child. The tasks can vary from being individual, to certain people doing it, to everyone. Each Child has to do, at least, 12 tasks.<p>To see the logs: https://atharia.vertinext.com/index.php?title=Plot:_Child_of_Gods_Tasks

Welcome to Atharia. A world where magic is commonplace and there are 4 known kingdoms. The mortals angered one of the Gods, Larthin, who decides to take ‘time’ from each mortal as retaliation and some of the mortals strive to appease him. There is a fanatic religious cult that works against the mortals. There is royalty, nobility, meddlesome Gods, exploration. The exploration involves finding ruins or mythical creatures (which may not necessarily be exactly like RL’s mythical but are heavily based on them) or discovering new lands or kingdoms. There are Children of Gods that have herculean tasks they must complete. Marriages tend towards being political and it is, should both parties agree it is okay, okay to have a Consort (love spouse) that is all about love. It is not uncommon for the Gods to meddle in the lives of the mortals be it to make their lives worse or better.

OOC: Atharia is a high fantasy MUSH that uses PennMUSH with a heavily modified version of FS3. Everyone has the ability to use some sort of magic. What we have as possible things to do: Play the social games (events, slice of life RP), political games (there are different kingdoms, political marriages), exploration, scholarly endeavors, religious focus. We also have a roster system and player CG that has generators in almost all the rooms. There is no preference to whether you take a roster, use the generators, or neither of those. The purpose is to make the point of entry as easy as possible.

An important note is that Atharia is a casual game. Sometimes scenes for plots and over all can come in rapid succession, sometimes it could takes a couple weeks or so before another scene happens. We're more interested in being inclusive and telling stories everyone can enjoy over 'getting plots out quickly' or something. The majority of plots on Atharia will be 1 to 2 scenes long, some times more. The plots with more than 1-5 scenes, at most, are typically ones that will involve player focus.
