Question about PC details on the wiki

Post by Kali »

Im wondering about the PC details on the wiki. Are they considered to be in character knowledge?

I would like to detail my characters back ground and some other 'secret' stuff that wouldnt be in game knowledge but would likley be nice for others to read.

On the PC pages we have a notice:

Keep in mind that this is an IC wiki page.

Clicking on the link there should take you to a disclaimer:

In Character (IC) is a roleplaying term applied to conversation, writing and events which take place within the world a character is based. All interactions represent the character's perspective and not the player's. Anything written on In Character forums or wiki pages may be known, and used, by other characters. The exception to this is when the writing depicts a character's thoughts, or a narrative of their actions.

Also, on the PC main page, it says:
Remember, all info here can be taken as IC information. Only post things that you want other people to know.

Based upon this, I would recommend keeping the wiki to information that is meant to be public- you can use a journal for other details about your character. (If you want the Team to know about private details, feel free to PM them to the team account and we will gladly keep team-read only records.)

What I did for my two characters, I wrote up information I wanted known about the characters for the Team. I then edited it for the wiki as to what has been told to others by my character or that others could easily find out about my character (ie what they look like or quirks).

Things like background knowledge or events that may or may not play apart of DM events or plots should NOT be posted until they have occurred.

Just my two coppers worth. :D
