Each character which you create costs $5 to register in our database. This fee is waived if this is your first time playing Underworld. After their first event, new characters are granted an unrestricted remort before they enter the world a second time.

| b. Histories |
|
| |
Email your character history to us using this link. Make sure that it is in .txt format. All good word processors offer this option under the "save as" function. Make sure that you attatch the .txt file to the email and DO NOT write all kinds of extraneous information in the body of the email. Only pertinent info should be included. Make sure that you include your FULL real name AND character name in the file so that we know exactly who you are
Thank you.

| c. PC-NPCs and Leasing |
|
| |
Sometimes the plot committee will ask a player to play the role of a PC-NPC. A PC-NPC is a character who is placed ingame in order to help stabilize or improve the structure of the game world. A prince, noble, or town healer are good examples of characters that may be provided to the game world by plot. Its often better for us to have a player play the role of the character than to use an NPC up for the weekend to play a single role.
PC-NPS receive $5 off their events and are provided with their role, including guildelines and some restrictions as to what they can and cannot do, usually from an ingame, ethical point of view. Beyond any restrictions, the player has complete free will and may play the character as they please with only the occasional requests from the plot committee.
Character leasing is allowed when a PC-NPC is "grandfathered" to a higher level so as to be efficient in the position they occupy. After their creation, all character points earned by the character are divided in half, and one half of the creation points go to "paying off" the creation points that have already been spent. The remainder may be spent as the player wishes. Once the character's "lease" has been payed off, the character progresses in the same vein as any other.

| d. Remort |
|
| |
Character "remort" is the rebuilding of your character based on the amount of accumulated creation points you have. There are two kinds of remort, "restricted" and "unrestricted".
Restricted remort is granted up to one month after rules changes have been implemented to allow players to "tweek" their character in order to take advantage of any rules change that may apply. In a restricted remort, the restructuring of the character must remain true to the continuity, logic and history of the character.
An unrestricted remort is the rebuilding of your character from scratch using the total amount of creation points you have accumulated. It is very rare for us to allow this, though major rewrites in the rules system will sometimes warrant it.
After their first event, new characters are granted an unrestricted remort before they enter the world a second time.

| e. Trade-In |
|
| |
At their time of death, any character may elect to take thier final death before the ressurrection coin-toss takes place. In the case where the player elects to allow their character to die with no knowledge of whether their ressurrection would succeed again, the player is given 1/2 of the total build of their now dead character to start a new character with.
|
| f. Transfer |
|
| |
At this time Underworld does not accept character transfers from any other LARP system . We do not accept transfers of characters from any "World of Darkness" campaigns, or from any Nero game. We do not accept any form of tabletop or desktop (computer-game) character. Believe it or not, people have asked.
