The price for a full weekend event is $75. If you pre-register and pre-pay in the allotted time frame, the cost is $65. There is also a yearly membership fee of $20 due when you attend your fist event of the year.

Pre-registration & Pre-Pay: We strongly encourage you to pre-register for an event. Doing so will earn you an additional 0.5 CP. If you decide to also pre=pay you can save $10 on the event cost. Pre-pay and Pre-reg can be found under events in the Character Generator.

Post Event Letters (PELs): The Post-Event Letter is now available in the Character Generator. Filling one of these out is recommended as it earns you 0.5 CP and also keeps the staff up to date with what your character did over the weekend as well as allows them to address any problems.

* Requests from Staff: From time to time, the staff will announce special CP opportunities on the forums to give everyone a fair chance at utilizing the opportunity. This could be anything from prop donations/loans to some sewing work or even packet/arrow donations. The amount of CP offered for these will vary and usually be posted with the request. The Calling Character Generator: This lovely tool was created by a member of the plot staff so that players could easily manage their characters. It is also necessary for anyone who intends on playing The Calling or for anyone who wants to apply CP towards The Calling for the future to make a character. It is how we track how much CP each player has earned as well as some other nifty features for the staff.
