Welcome to Reset! We are an AU Rune Factory based roleplay that does not require knowledge of the series to enjoy. This thread is here to walk you through Reset, and help create your first character!
Reset is a LGBTQA friendly community and safe place, and accepts characters of any gender, sexuality, or romantic orientation.
Please read through our site rules! You can find our guest friendly Questions and Suggestions board over here too, if you want to ask about something and don’t want it getting lost in the cBox! There is also a STAFF INTRODUCTION THREAD over here for getting to know the staff and what they do!

numbers and levels
Reset uses a few number based systems for things such as battle, crafting, and the heart system. Gaining levels is very simple - just have a thread where you use the skill in a form, and characters interact!
If you have played Rune Factory before, this will seem familiar, though we don't have some things like a Sleeping level or a Eating level!
A few quick examples of skill levels:

A few quick examples of skill levels:
- two characters bonding overhow to bake a cake will give you both a Cooking level
- teaching someone about how to swing an axe gives you both a level in Axes
- defeating a monster with a spear will give you a level or levels in Spears
A few quick examples of th heart system are:
- if a thread is deemed a 'good' event by the character, they gain FP
- if someone gives them a present they do not like, they lose FP
- if a personal event happens, that special amount of FP is gained/lost
Our number systems are here to give a guide and help set up goals and milestones for characters. In the end, it is the IC interactions and writing that matter!
setting
Reset is quite literally an alternate universe, a world created at the end of the events of Rune Factory 4. With the large amounts of runes flying about, combined with the Mad Emperor Ethelberd’s rage, this new world was created from the worse ‘what ifs’ of the original.
Reset focuses on the run down village of Selphia, the home of the Divine Dragon of Wind, Ventuswill. The goddess like dragon remains curt and distant from the citizens, trying her best to appear strong as her magic fades, the source of her power corrupted and taken over by four monstrous beings. Sitting near the border of the aggressive Sechs Empire, Selphia must also deal with human invaders alongside rebuilding their home, and exploring the wilds for new and exciting encounters!
For those familiar with Rune Factory 4, the site title of Reset can seem a bit cheeky right now!
