We're seeking enthusiastic volunteers for Immortality and Indoor Gardening!

Do you ever wish you could help shape Achaea?

Do you secretly desire to take on more of a "game master" role, designing elaborate plots and scenarios to challenge and amaze adventurers?

Do you like the idea of building devious quests, creating horrifying monsters, and shaping interactive landscapes?

If you answer YES! to any of the above now's your chance! We're currently accepting applications for Celani!

This is your opportunity to leave behind the shackles of a mortal existence and take on the mantle of one of our Pantheon.

We're currently seeking excited volunteers who have interests in world building, storyline conception, and/or event creation. To be a great Celani you need to be self-motivated, enthusiastic, enjoy being creative, excited to embrace a challenge, and not be afraid of interacting with other players. Ultimately, as this is a community volunteer position, what you do and when is up to you, but being able to follow through on the plans you make is very appreciated.

In order to apply, you must meet the following criteria:

- You must be 18 years or older IRL. Sorry, minors!
- You must have, at absolute minimum, at least 500 hours of playing time.
- Have read HELP CELANI in full.

Now, here's what you must include in your application, in a plain-text, non-formatted email to celani@achaea.com:

1. Your real name.

2. Your real age.

3. If you are primarily a student, tell us your school and your course of study. Otherwise: your real occupation and your company's name.

4. Your character(s) in Achaea and what you have accomplished through those characters, especially any leadership positions you have held or other noteworthy achievements.

5. Why you think we should make you a Celani (keeping in mind that Celanihood precedes Godhood, so also why you think you should have the chance to be a God.)

6. Why you want to do this, knowing that you will have to completely cut off ties with other (mortal) players and leave behind all that you accomplished as a mortal player.

7. Two flawless room descriptions of 80+ words each. You MUST READ the section on room descriptions at the bottom of the HELP MORTAL BUILDERS file and follow the writing guidelines therein. DO NOT SKIP THIS. The MAJORITY of applications we've received in the past have ignored some part of the explicitly stated writing guidelines. What this tells us is that you lack attention to detail and the ability to follow given instructions, and neither of these traits make good Celani candidates!

8. A brief outline for an IC event, totalling 100 - 200 words. This should be of the scale that you see in our regular EVENTS news posts.

9. Any special experience outside of Achaea that you think might help you in Celanihood, such as customer service background or writing experience.

Strong writing skills are a must, as is the ability to work within an often demanding and perfectionistic team environment. Other traits that will help you: consistency, creativity, improvisational skills, storytelling ability, maturity, attention to detail, dependability, and above all, a love of Achaea and the world we co-create here.

Your application MUST be received by 23:59 GMT on Wednesday, December 6th (that's 7pm Eastern, 4pm Pacific, and 11am (Thurs) Sydney).

Penned by My hand on the 13th of Daedalan, in the year 758 AF.
