Is there a way to join staff?

I'm new to Factions and I would like to know whether there is any way I can help the staff. I'm interested in playing but I also enjoy writing and seeing other people's writing. This may have been answered somewhere else but I'm not sure where it might be.

I think Cupcake is currently Lore head right now. Dunno if staff apps are still up, but I'm sure CCT has the details.

Sometimes members of the community write lore snippets, short stories, that sort of thing, related to factions! Sometimes they're even featured on the news feed by CupcakeTrap. I'd definitely ask him about it if I were you! He won't bite.

Lore Staff member here, I'm actually looking at a list of pitches for Summoner's Herald articles right now. That's the Factions in universe newspaper. I don't think we're taking any right now, but you might want to try your hand at that next time Cupcake opens it up.

Actually, I would welcome pitches. You can submit them here.

More generally: I'm continually trying to build up staff and delegate more. I might post on this in the near future.

What about Beyond the Battlefield, is that still a thing?

I reserve the right to be loudly opinionated on subjects I am completely ignorant of

It is still a thing, but it, like Summoner's Herald, has been delayed in releasing anymore articles due to the big backlog in the lore department.

Becoming staff is easy! All you have to do is cut off your left hand and let Cupcake use the blood to write lore because ink is too expensive!

Well, in fairness,

it's really expensive. We're talking about savings of around 50%, Raptor.

You should start writing lore in vodka. Afterwards, you can have a celebratory drink that will sooner or later drive you into alcoholism.


Plus, I'd like to get contact drunk when reading lore.

Oh, my mistake. Definitely do this, then!

Sorry, I'm slow on the uptake because I don't have a left hand anymore, I have to use the right one to look everything up and it takes ages.

No problem! I haven't been as clear about seeking pitches for lore as I should be. I've also wasted too many hours trying to find a way to write lore with penicillin, and it's just not working.

You should try 3M PF-5030, it makes the lore feel really smooth and fluid.
