It's your first day of work here - at Candela, the gateway between worlds, or so it's called. A magical place linking the Seven Worlds together through the Tethers, the only way to safely through the void.
At least, until recently. Transportation magic, most of all, is always a risky, unpredictable business that most choose not to risk. The elite Transporters do their best to keep themselves and their travelers safe, but every now and then, there's an accident. A Transporter whose Familiar isn't strong enough can get dragged into the void and dissolve into nothing but magical energy. Some travelers end up in the wrong world. Some travelers get stuck halfway. And some travelers... just never arrive, lost forever somewhere out there.
There isn't much more that can be done about it other than what precautions are already taken, but lately, more and more accidents have been happening. People are being lost mid-journey. Spells, not just transportation magic, are failing. The magic holding Candela and the Seven Worlds together is becoming unstable. Some say that there's just a bit of turbulence in the magic void, and that this will all pass. But others think that something in the void is rising, and if it isn't stopped, everything could fall apart.
But for now, this is none of your concern. You won't be assigned to the job of Transporter or even Courier, at least for a while. All you have to worry about is doing whatever job you get assigned to first, whether it's being a Bellhop, Messenger, or even a Familiar Master. It takes a lot of work to keep Candela running properly. The issues with transport are not your problem.
For now.

1. Narrator's (my) word is law. Don't argue with what I say happens to you.
2. You will not interact with other players during this RPG, however if you really want to, I can let you.
3. No overpowered characters.
4. You most likely will not die, but please make rational decisions and don't go charging headfirst into certain death, or I will kill you :D
5. This will not be the most active RPG ever! While I am a pretty active player, I may not respond immediately to you. The reason for this is that I find that if I get very frequent responses while playing an RPG, it tends to become more monotonous and less interesting to me. Therefore, I will cut my responses to 2-3 per person per hour at maximum. Please don't be mad at me :(
6. Let me know if you change your username.
7. If you're reading this, include the word 'bakery' somewhere in your sign-up form.
8. However, if I fail to respond to you within 2 days, ping me again. I may have forgotten.
9. Please quote/bold my last response in your response (for convenience), and ping me (blue @ symbol in the bottom right corner of my post), otherwise I may not see your response ^^

There are two types of skills, primary and secondary. The primary skills are Charisma, Taming, Efficiency, Intelligence, and Strength. You may choose how skilled you are st each of these when you sign up. Secondary skills, on the other hand, can only be found by trying something of that skill for the first time. All skill levels can be increased by practicing that skill. When all Primary skills have reached level 10, your overall level goes up, allowing you to do more difficult kinds of magic.

Well, this is partially how Candela got its name haha. Magic must be contained in a substance or object in order to be manipulated, and wax seems to do the best job of this. Different colors and shapes of candles have different uses, but all must be lit to release the magic.

Badges serve no purpose other than identification and a recognition of your merit. They are generally pinned on a jacket or bag.

A Familiar will be your best friend and closest companion here in Candela. Your Taming level defines how powerful your Familiar can be. You may make more than one familiar, but the total power level must be equal to or less than your Taming level.
The power level of a Familiar is how easy it is to control, while the ability level is how strong it is.
