Mission Rules and Guides

[ATRB=BORDER,0,TRUE][ATRB=CELLSPACING,0,TRUE] missions

Missions play a major role in the world of Soul Eater and this forum as well! By completing missions, your characters can become stronger, develop their character, and get that much closer to moving up to either a two or three star meister/weapon or even a death scythe!

At the beginning of each week (Sundays) there will be missions posted to the mission board that Shibusen students can sign up to take care of. Each mission will vary in difficulty. and some are limited to certain ranks of student.

There will be three 1* missions, two 2* missions, and one 3* mission.

After signing up for the mission, a staff member will PM the students accepted to the mission and create the thread with the details of the mission. After the posting of the thread, the participants of the thread will be free to post and RP out the mission.

Important: A staff member (as a NPC) will be able to enter the thread at certain points to either throw off your character, give important hints, or provide a challenge once the target (Evil human) has been acquired.

At the completion of the mission, post a link to the thread in the appropriate area and it will be reviewed by staff. Dependent on how the mission turned out, the grading staff member may award your character with a minor stat increase and a soul to add to the count for weapons to become death scythes.

ADDITIONAL INFO

This is how Morti and I are doing things for now with regards to making mission signups fair for everyone involved. This was decided while we were trying to set things up, and may change depending on how it all works out/what Dawg feels is most fair:

• NOT ALL MISSIONS WILL INVOLVE KILLING A KISHIN EGG. Any mission you complete will result in appropriate bonuses to your stat points + account point rewards with which you can use to purchase/upgrade abilities, but not all missions will include a Kishin Egg soul reward.
  
  In the manga itself, we've seen Meister/Weapon teams go on investigations (without mention of actual Kishin Egg activity), and just plain assisting individuals with their above average physical capabilities (helping to hunt the sky whale).
  
  We will make clear in the mission description whether or not souls will be available as a reward.
  
  
• You can only sign up for one mission at a time. You can forfeit your spot in one mission to join another, but you can't hold two slots at a time.
  
  
• In general, we'll try to have two slots open. Full Weapon/Meister teams count as one slot.
  
  
• If more than one team decides to sign up for a mission, the team that takes the first slot gets to have the Kishin Egg soul. However, as long as everyone contributes to the plot progression, all participants will receive points and stat boosts upon completion.
  
  
• Characters that are ordinary humans can sign up to go on missions, but they must be accompanied by either a solo weapon or a Meister/Weapon team.
  
  
• If you are not a solo weapon, and do not actually intend to ever be one, we highly encourage you to first try to reach out to an unpaired Meister character to give someone else a chance to run a mission. The partnership can be temporary and doesn't need to last beyond the length of the mission. You won't be stopped from taking a mission, but it's nice to try to be courteous to other members and mindful that you have a certain advantage over them in this regard.
  
  
• For non-DWMA aligned characters such as witches and Kishin Eggs, please PM the mods as we will also craft specific missions for your character classes.
