Write your character
Name, history, and what they are trying to get out of Northpoint. Two paragraphs is plenty. We are reading for intent, not for word count.

What makes it different
A city with consequences
Northpoint runs a single closed economy. Money enters through work and leaves through rent, repairs, fines and fuel. Nothing is bought into existence, which is why a car in this city means something.
- Fourteen whitelisted jobs, from paramedic to freight, each with its own training
- Police and medical run by staff who apply separately and are held to a written standard
- Property is owned, rented and lost. Landlords are players
- Character death is permanent after three strikes, decided by a review, never by a moderator's mood
The rule we care most about is the boring one: your character has to want something that is not a gun.
Northpoint staff handbook, section oneGetting in
Three steps, about two days
We read every application by hand, which is slower than a bot and the reason the city is worth joining.
Step 01
Step 02
Read the rules once
Ten of them, on one page, in plain English. The application asks you two questions from it and both answers are on that page.
Step 03
Short voice interview
Fifteen minutes in the Discord with a whitelist team member. Not a test. We are checking you can hold a character and take a scene seriously.

What the store pays for
Northpoint runs on a dedicated box, a database backup that actually gets tested, and a development team that gets paid. Nothing in the store affects roleplay outcomes.
01
Server and backups
Dedicated hardware, nightly off site snapshots, restored to a test server once a month to prove they work.
02
Development
Two paid developers on custom scripts, and every one of them stays owned by the community.
03
Events
Monthly city events with props, staff and a plot, planned by people who are not being paid in exposure.
04
Never advantage
No money, no weapons, no priority in a scene. Cosmetics, queue priority and support tiers only.
