[attr="class","enc_head"]I. Plotting Resources
[attr="class","enc_sub"]A checklist of resources.
This page isn't very complicated and acts as a sort of portal to all the pages you may need to improve the plotting of your character. If you are looking for more opportunities to plot with others and develop your character's story further, then use the below checklist to make sure you aren't missing out on opportunities already waiting for you!
[attr="class","enc_head"]II. Global Plots
[attr="class","enc_sub"]Making the world go round.
It's always good to read up on our Global Plots, to work out where and how your character can fit in. You can read up on the latest Global Plots by going to the appropriate encyclopedia page, or you can go to the discussion thread specifically tailored for the current global plot, in our plotting board.

[attr="class","enc_head"]III. Events and Special Missions
[attr="class","enc_sub"]Keeping things exciting.
We regularly have special events and missions in action on the site for those who are looking for a writing challenge. To find out about our current opportunities and to read up on on-going events, simply go to the Events and Special Missions page. There, you can read about each active plot and find links to the appropriate discussion pages.

[attr="class","enc_head"]IV. Plot Trackers
[attr="class","enc_sub"]Plotting with other members.
Some sites have Plot Pages and Thread Trackers, but at Aludium we have the two combined. Check out our guide on how to create a plot tracker, and remember to look at other characters' trackers to keep an eye out for interesting plotting opportunities.
[attr="class","enc_link"]Go To: Creating a Plot Tracker
[attr="class","enc_head"]V. Plot Discussion
[attr="class","enc_sub"]You can chat with other members outside of the plot trackers.
If you want to discuss current, on-going plots (global or mission-based) or suggest plot lines or stories that you might want to roleplay with others, then simply create a thread in the Plotting Discussion board and chat with the other members of the site. Remember to update your plot trackers when you have something concrete and remember to partake in the pinned/global plot threads too!

[attr="class","enc_head"]VI. Communicators
[attr="class","enc_sub"]Keeping in contact with the plots around you.
Our character communicators are both an extra facet of our roleplaying community but also operate as independent information sources. Upon acceptance, your character will automatically be factored into only certain communicator signals and will, therefore, receive the information only accessible to them. We hope that this encourages an interesting dynamic and carries with it unique plotting opportunities. To see how to create a communicator and become a part of these messages, just go to the Communicators and Hacking Signals page in the encyclopedia.

[attr="class","enc_head"]VII. Purchasing Items
[attr="class","enc_sub"]Enhance your roleplaying experience.
You can improve your character experience or open new doors for your character and their plots by enhancing them with items from the Aludium Emporium. If you are unsure how character credits and the purchasing of items is supposed to work, then simply check out the appropriate encyclopedia page. If you already know, head straight over to the emporium.

[attr="class","enc_head"]VIII. Open Threads
[attr="class","enc_sub"]Join open threads and embrace spontaneity.
Stuck for a thread to join or start? Check out the Open Threads List for the threads that have already been set in motion by other members. If you still can't find something that takes your fancy, then try starting your own open thread and add it to the list to inspire others to join.

[attr="class","enc_head"]IX. Expanding the Galaxy
[attr="class","enc_sub"]Opening up new worlds.
While we hope to one day be home to the most extensive Star Wars roleplay boards on the net, our staff are very aware that to have hundreds of roleplayable planets from day one can be overwhelming and off-putting to new members. Instead, we'll be expanding the worlds available as our member list increases. This way, new members don't feel an over-whelming pressure to single-handedly explore and fill each planet with their writing. If you're feeling frustrated by the plotting limitations placed on you by the current timeline and open categories of the galaxy, we recommend working to expand it. Once our member count has become large enough that more roleplay boards seem needed, our staff will be happy to open up the next stage of galactic travel. You can help to increase our membership by spreading the word of Aludium and helping with advertisement. For more information on our site's advertisement and the rewards you can request from spreading it around the internet, just go to the below page...
