Canon Updates
What is a Canon Update?
A canon update is simply changing your character's timeline to a point somewhere in their immediate or far-off future. By doing so, they will gain knowledge of their future but will still have all the memories and CR of their time in Aliunde. We do allow you to backdate a character's timeline to some time in their past, but we do this on a case-by-case basis. Please do not submit a request to backdate a character's timeline here. Instead, please contact the mods if you wish to do this.
Canon Updating Rules
• Your character must be in the game for at least two (2) months before you can request a canon update. It gives your character time to build up CR (character relations) with other characters in the game.
• You must wait at least one (1) month upon the release of a new movie/book. If a new movie or book in a series is released, we ask that you wait one month to allow the moderators as well as other players to become acquainted with the newest edition before you canon update.
• You can only canon update your character once every six (6) months. We don't want this privilege to be abused. Constantly updating your character can cause a lot of confusion, and we want to make sure you put a lot of thought into it before you do so.
• Manga-to-anime and anime-to-manga updating is allowed. Or TV/movie-to-book, book-to-movie/TV, etc. You are able to change your character's timeline from a point in their manga timeline to a point in their anime timeline or vice versa.
• Your character will disappear from the city for one (1) week (7 days, real-time), during the dates you specify in your request. When they wake up, they will be back at the hospital with the same care package they received when they first arrived, as well as any weapons/abilities/powers they had returned previously. All their memories of being in Aliunde will still remain, and their absence from the city will only be a week (to other characters in the city), no matter how far into the future they have gone.
• This is not a character restart. Your character's memories and CR will still remain after a canon update. Though we prefer not to, we do allow character restarts under certain circumstances. Please contact the mods if you wish to do so.
• Use the following template and reply to this post if you wish to canon update your character:
Name: [Your name.]
Character: [The character you wish to canon update.] //
Current Timeline: [Your character's recent timeline.]
Updated Timeline: [The point in canon at which you would like to update your character to. Please provide a brief description, and what has happened to your character in canon from the time you originally took them from to the point you will be updating them to.]
Dates of Absence: mm/dd to mm/dd [Remember, your character will be gone for a minimum of a week.]
Do you want your character(s) to disappear? [Not permanently, but if you choose this option, your character(s) will disappear from the city, temporarily, and when they come back, they will remember hazy lights, and a single sentence the moderators will send to you privately. This makes it easier for people who will be gone for a long period of time.]
Anything Else? [Anything else you want to add.]
