Hi Dove, we've talked it over and have decided that we are willing to allow CRAUs in the game. We'll announce it in the April Updates post soon and update the Rules and FAQ accordingly, but this change is effective immediately and we're posting a new app form to use for CRAU apps as we speak. There are going to be a few rules specific to CRAU apps/characters, which we detail below.

  • No CRAUs from sex games, defined as any game that requires sex threads for AC or where sex is a fundamental aspect of the game's premise (e.g., "the city is powered by sex").
  • No CRAUs from locked or invite-only games.
  • Characters from games that grant new or additional superpowers/magic can opt to keep those powers, revert to their canon power sets, or lose their abilities altogether. Any abilities they choose to keep will be subject to nerfing as usual.
  • Dragon Age canon characters cannot be apped as CRAUs, and other CRAU characters cannot remember CR with DA canon characters from previous games. If a relationship with a DA character was fundamental to a CRAU character's development, you can give it the Lizard Time treatment and rename them/obscure world details/etc. to maintain the development while shedding any knowledge of Thedas.
  • Players of CRAUs have to provide an opt-in post for other canon characters to opt in to having the CRAU character remember them from previous games. This will allow existing players of canon characters to choose whether they want characters to know them and how much knowledge they're comfortable with. (For example, someone may be fine with your character remembering theirs in general but not want your character to already know their Deep Dark Secret that they haven't yet revealed to anyone else in Fade Rift.) To the extent that people don't opt in to knowledge, CRAU players can say that the process of traveling through the rift erased that part of their memory.
