These are given to players in order to custom build their playing experience. It also helps keep the game active and the players engaged, rewarding them for their participation and dedication to progression. Here are the different ways you can earn Progression Points each month:
Progression Points can be utilized to purchase the following benefits:
♥Character Slots
COST: 150 pp
This will be the only way for current players to be allowed to apply for another cast member on the list. Civilians do not count toward this purchase as they do not carry any special powers or role properties. However, if you wish your civilian character to “upgrade” into a cast member position, this rule WILL apply, and you will be asked to re-apply with the required updates pending approval. Keep in mind that the “Three characters maximum” rule also applies in this purchase.
Powers
COST: 300 pp
You may use your points to purchase new skills or upgrade (“level up”) the current ones while they are in their alter ego form.
Admin Gifts
COST: 75 pp
If neither of the above sound interesting, then you can stake your points on the admin to give you something random. Sometimes it’ll be something really good, other times it might not be.
♥ PLEASE NOTE: If you drop a CAST MEMBER for any reason, your Progression Points will be wiped out to zero (0) and you will not be allowed to apply for another CAST MEMBER for 3 months. This rule does not apply to a CIVILIAN role.
- Activity Check: Each player receives 10 points every time they pass an ‘Activity Check’. Keep in mind that ALL of your characters must pass this activity check simultaneously each time in order for the points to be awarded; and no extra points are given just because you have extra characters.
- Objectives: Over the course of the game, players will be given role-play challenges or “Objectives” to try and complete for Progression Points. These objectives are designed to expand your gaming experience and push Shattered Kingdom forward plot-wise. Sometimes they have time limits on them, other times they do not, they might be very general and vague or they might be extremely detailed in demands. In order to obtain a new objective you must first complete the initial one given to you. For those who have completed their objectives, new ones will be issued at the 1st of every month in the Administration Gazette. Progression points will vary depending upon the level of difficulty your objective might be.
- Events: Occasionally the administration will announce a random “event” of sorts that will require you to incorporate a zany little handicap into your character’s daily regime. It can also be an actual in-game event where there might be a festival or major gathering designed to trigger a plot advancement. Progression points will vary depending upon how well the event was executed by each participating character.
- Admin Awards: Sometimes certain players do great things in-game with their characters and the administration wants to commend them for it. Admin Awards are not a regular thing, they’re only awarded when necessary and the point value will always differ depending on the circumstance. But if there are awards to be had, they will be noted on the 1st of each month in the Administration Gazette.
