Unwritten Legends Forums

[Ione]

To support Unwritten Legend’s primary goal of being a roleplay game, beginning on May 17th we will be implementing our long-awaited Fame Rewards system. As you accumulate fame points by logging in, or by receiving staff-given RolePlay Awards (RPAs) by interacting with your game environment, you may use them to purchase various items or services for your character.

This new system will not replace the staff-driven merchants that are already in the game, and you will continue to find them at the same frequency you always have. Instead, this system is in place to help give props, experience, and character customization to those who wish to utilize it.

To further enhance all enjoyment of this system, we highly encourage our players to REPORT when they witness phenomenal roleplay on someone’s behalf, or submit a log of the outstanding roleplay event via e-mail or the forums. This will allow staff to reward with a Peer Submitted RPA.

How To Claim a Fame Reward:

1. Pick the item or service you want from the list below. You must meet the fame number requirements.

2. If it is an alteration, you must design your item and then submit it in the following format to fame@unwritten.net. Please note that you can only have one reward in process at a time.

Character Name:

Fame Reward:

If the reward requires a description, please describe it here:

3. You will be informed by e-mail from a member of the Creative Team when your reward is put through our QC process. If there are issues with the request, an e-mail exchange will occur until the item design or service is finalized. Please note that this process can take some time to be completed, and all rewards will be processed in the order they are received.

4. You will be called up for a customer service consult when your reward is ready, where a deduction will occur to your accumulated fame points.

5. If you would like to claim another fame reward, you would begin the process again.

*-* Important Note *-*

Any rare materials (keafwood, banewood, glacial emeralds, mithryl, etc.) must be provided at the time of the customer service consult. You will be informed of the amount required during the e-mail exchange with the Creative Team. If you have questions regarding rare materials or their conversion rate, feel free to ask the Creative Team member assigned to your reward. The Creative Team may reject a rare material item based upon size, lore requirements, or improbability. (I.e., turning in a ‘keafwood twig’ and requesting it be made into a ‘thick keafwood staff’ would not work, whereas turning in six dyadite gems for a setting of a necklace would).
