About Application Characters
-
If I wish to apply for the Red Harts or the Mage Guild, do I need that character to be my main character?
-
Think the rules been that generally yes, they want those that are in factions to have that character as their main one.
-
Yes
-
Dude, you can't abandon Raumo right after you begged me to retire Landon and make an elf!
-
Yes.
But I can tell you that once you play a character in a DM faction you will find yourself with so many things you could do and so many people you could meet in order to tell your story, that you will not want to play anything else.

the guy who picked a unicorn for an avatar tells it true!

Players who dedicate time and effort to a Main character generally reap the rewards of becoming well known, famous or notorious characters. That is fundamentally what we're after with attempting to play Heros, Heroines, and Villains.
The DMs are not really interested in handing out the perks associated with Application Characters to characters that are not the Main character a player has. These perks are to be seen, valued and used for the betterment of the server, and that requires a high level of committment in proportion to the RL time a player can dedicate. If a player can only dedicate 30 minutes a week to playing on CoA, then that is fine as long as that is focussed on their Main/App character.
The DMs want to make it clear that you don't need to commit hours and hours to CoA to gain an Application character, just that you commit the majority of the time you can play to that Application Character.
No one minds you spending the odd hour or two on an Alt for light relief, but those players who stick to a single main for an extended period, despite deaths, failures, lootings and other such dire circumstances and then rebuild, are worth their weight in gold.
