General Policies
NERO Sutherlands is a level capped game. This means that all standard NERO characters are welcome to attend, but if your build total is over the limit, you will have to "buy down" and lose skills. We will be announcing the level cap limit before each game.
Level/Build Cap: 115 build points (as of 10/31/2009)
We are encouraging all players to make new characters to come play NERO Sutherlands. We hope to provide plot unique to the regional area, and will involve characters from the area more closely than others.
NERO Sutherlands believes in a restricted use of transforms. Anyone with a transform on their character who is attending any NERO Sutherlands campaign should check with the local plot team when you arrive. Also, some transforms, if they go active, my result in your character temporarily becoming an NPC.
Craftsman Policy
We would like to encourage the use of Craftsman skills (abbreviated CO), and are promoting them in our game.
In addition to that, we are instituting the following policy. At check-in on Friday night, you may specify what you wish to receive for your CO skill. Normally, a player receives 2 silver per CO skill. You can receive this silver, OR you can get an evaluate item that is directly related to your skill. For example, if you have Craftsman: Basketweaver, you can get an Evaluate Item: woven basket that is worth the same amount of silver that you would normally get for your CO skill. This may then be sold by your character during the event, or traded to various PCs or NPCs, etc.
