Hi everyone! By clicking on the source link, you will be directed to a belated Christmas gift from the admin team - 8 skeletons from our second batch of characters as we welcome Japan to Bloody Glory! We will be releasing the rest of our second batch periodically over the next few weeks, so keep your eyes out for new countries, new characters, and plenty of opportunity for more drama. On behalf of the whole admin team, thank you so much for your continued support!
hello members ( and current applicants in our inbox ; we see you ♥ ) ─ we wanted to firstly, preface this by saying thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, to everyone who has taken an interest and invested their time and muse into the world of bloodless. we could not have been as successful with the group and the individual country and character storylines without your dedication and innovation. given certain circumstances within the roleplay, the admins have felt like there are some adjustments that we would like to make, to polish up things before we delve in deeper. bloodless will be going through a few changes that we hope will organize and tidy up our storylines to make it even grander than before ! we want to apologize for the inconvenience and any errors that we, as admins, have done ─ we will seek to do even better in the future ! consider this a temporary hiatus and a long needed break for both admins but, needless to say, this certainly is not the end for us at all and we hope to stay in contact with our lovely members through discord.
while bloodless is placed on hiatus, we hope the respect and support we have received so far will continue towards future endeavors and we wish our members the best of luck ! see you all soon !
hello members ! this is just a small announcement from the admin team regarding the weekly submission of points through tumblr or discord.
firstly, we would like to note that this is a messaged circulated for the ease of all parties involved and is not aimed towards any one specific individual. the admins would advise all members to look through the point system excel sheet ( provided here ) before submitting their points, just to be certain that the five sections and health totals for their character / s are accurate and up to date. if it is not updated, there will be an explanation in the ‘note’ section of the excel sheet for the attention of the relevant mun.
once again, we would like to place emphasis on the rule that all asks are not eligible for points unless these asks are turned into threads ( made into a separate post and written as a starter for another character ). for the comfort of our members, the admins have also equipped the discord group chat with the ‘nadeko bot’ which can be used to calculate the total of points per week.
henceforth, any errors made in the weekly point submission will be addressed through the excel sheet, in the ‘note’ section, as it is already specified in the point count call ( as seen here ) that any mistakes must be reviewed and amended by the writers themselves ─ failure to do so would see no points awarded for the week. thus far, the admins have been proactive in reaching out to those with errors in their count but as we wish to progress forward and focus on the group plot as well as our individual characters, we will no longer be extensively monitoring the points of our seasoned members.
instead, members are encouraged to review their points if a mistake is noted and reach out to the admins with any queries they may have or to notify us of the amendments made, after which the sheet will be updated accordingly ! we hope that our members are understanding of this necessary step taken in our weekly point tallying and if there are any concerns or questions because of this, please come forward either through the main or through discord !
hello members ! the admin team has decided to re-evaluate our point system and give it a bit of an update so that it performs better.
instead of a weekly 5 point automatic for everyone who’s passing through the checks, we changed the system up so that each post you made (thread starter / reply) will now be worth 1 point.
for example, say character a has written 3 posts. well in turn, you will receive 3 points, for 2 posts, 2 points and so on and so forth. likewise, bonus points will still exist but they will be rewarded in the same previous intervals. you will receive 1 extra point for every 5 posts made.
as we understand everyone’s schedule is different and ranges vary, we are also implementing a 2 in character posts minimum per week so you aren’t in jeopardy of being placed upon the activity check. as a reminder (and we shall be enforcing) activity checks will not be negotiable and we will be subtracting 1 point from each section of your character’s sections if you fail to fullfil this minimum quota.
please be aware that while the admins have also done their best to make sure to update everyone’s trackers, it is also member’s responsibility to report accurately and in a timely manner. we will not be chasing down members for last second point updates and would like each member to remain accountable for their own stats. the more you track your own stats, the easier it will be for us to reward you upon any purchases you may wish to make.
the point shop has also been updated so we highly recommend for everyone to check it out and see what new things they can potentially work towards to expand their muse as well as increase group involvement ! now certain points will also require a point deduction in order for things to be fair and to extend game play, so pay attention to those if you intend to purchase something.
that’s all from your admins for now. for any further questions feel free to contact us and we will be glad to answer & please like this once you have read this update !
Hello everyone ! Just a bit of an update from our end as we’re very glad to have new plots as well as new graphics as an update and refresh for bloodless. With that said, we’d like to specifically address some issues as a reminder for all members.
For anyone looking to do specific plots or make moves for their characters, these ideas must be addressed to both admins (unless stated otherwise by the admin). And to continue on that note, all characters in the group are relevant and have the time to shine. Again as a reminder, the point system is available and utilized for character’s individual growths. If you have the points, spend them to get the things you want, the admins are always open to hearing out ideas and seeing if they work within the current timeframe and, if not, we will keep these plots and your character in mind as we move forward with the group progression. If you do not speak up and tell us as a team, we will not know.
With the availability of the fourth role, the requisite demand for two characters at 150 points maxed out. Upon purchase for the fourth, there will be a total deduction of 25 points from each of the two characters (section chosen by the player). As this will be working on a different basis, approval must be officialized by both admins and requested upon the main.
And as a general reminder to all members : any character that remains open has the potential of falling into conflicts that are determined by large scale plot developments. Unless members specifically tell us otherwise via the main, in regards to their plots for these characters, we work on a grand scale to ensure that as many characters can participate and react. If things are also not made canon on the dash, we will also be unable to acknowledge hidden developments. Members should not be determining positions or implications of certain roles apart from what’s been written from the blurb especially if the character is not currently in gameplay (as this would also be unfair to people who’d like to join bloodlessglory).
Again, we will do our best to work with our members but we cannot do so without full knowledge of things ! Passive aggressive messages will only serve to confuse and discourage the admins, who are, at the end of the day, just humans as well. As we work together to develop the group, we would like to remind everyone that you are more than encouraged to approach us for plot ideas, not only for your character but for the progression of the group as this is a joint effort ! Thank you all for contributing so far and we hope to have more interesting developments in the future !
The wind howls as the deceased are buried. In sacred cathedrals, sermons are said and songs are sung in honor of the memories. Yet, for some it is not enough. In particular, one family grieves, their eyes colored in red from all the tears shed. To have lost one of their own in the Swiss alps has thrusted them forward to court with an urge to seek out unequivocal justice. And so, the esteemed House of Barcelos arrived, cloaked in the colors of their crest; in the white winter of Switzerland, their figures stand in bright crimson red.
Guilhereme the Father stands stern, by his side stands his handsome prodigal son Vicente. Flanked at their sides are the beautiful de Barcelos women, Micaela and Rosalia. With fists clenched and chins raised, they move together as one unit, dangerously captivating, all watch on in awe. It is Diebold’s court they seek. And yet they have been told there is nothing left to be addressed. And so they turn on their heels. This was only temporary pause for the House of Barcelos would not easily vanquished. To settle for defeat was too easy, not when their kin rested ten feet under in the depths of hellfire’s grave.
From a distance the trumpet sounds. All turn their way, three figures sit horseback with golden flags etched in rich blue. The sound of hooves seem to quake the earth itself. They are the formidable Tumeds - a nomadic tribe known to be ruthless in both head and heart. Their visages are solemn as they enter through the Swiss gates. Their presence commands attention. At it’s center stands the matriarch, Oyun the leader, Oyun the mother. She is accompanied by her blood hound brother Khasar and her ice cold warrior sister Delkii. They greet Diebold with utmost formality, their heads bowed in reverence. But their eyes tell another story, a hearkening desire for vengeance.
They have come to the mountains for one thing alone. Divine retribution.
A NOTE FROM THE ADMINS
hello everyone ! we just wanted to say a big thank you for a full month of activity. we can not reiterate how grateful we are to have been inspired by our members. bloodless glory had started as a passion project and has blossomed into an insanely wonderful creative space, and it’s all thanks to all of you guys ! as a thank you, we have added two new families into our playable role sphere, so feel free to check them out here and here ! some other adjustments that we will be making will be in regards to our oc slots. from this point onward, we will be changing our original 5 slot opening to 3 slots per country. our blurb for lady jane of england has also been updated and she is finally applicable ! with that said, we hope everyone takes an opportunity to get acquainted with our new characters (if we may so ourselves, they’re quite interesting in their respective introductions). lastly, we ask members who like to make plot purchases to submit on sundays only so we may review all requests and schedule things out in advance ! again, thank you so much for your participation thus far and we hope to continue inspiring you ! happy roleplaying and cheers to many more great memories !
hey everyone ! this is a rather big announcement coming from the admin team but due to circumstances, we unfortunately had to part with admin sol. we’ve appreciated everything she’s contributed thus far. due to conflicting interests as well as personal life, she will no longer be a part of bloodless glory. we wish her the best on her future endeavors ! for further contact in the future, we ask members to direct their specific questions to either admin kina or admin ori. that’s all for now, happy roleplaying !
as our wonderful players keep the dash moving at an amazing pace, i believe it is about time for the admin team to post an update on our weekly timeline ! as mentioned in the rules and the side bar of the main, we keep to a strict schedule in order for both muns and admins of different timezones to be able to enjoy ourselves and still keep things up to date.
please remember that the main runs on est, and you will be able to keep an eye on the time by using the clock on our main site. please like this post to let us know that you have been informed and as always, if there are any queries, please do not hesitate to contact the admins via inbox, tumblr ims or the q & a tab on the discord.
so, from now on, the schedule will be as it follows :
the submit will be closed every saturday at 12pm.
an activity check will be published every saturday at 12pm ─ these will detail those who are in danger of being unfollowed due to activity reasons. the characters on this list will not be applicable for any points.
the cut-line for replies to be considered for the weekly point count will be on saturday at midnight*.
an unfollow list will be published on sunday at 12pm, exactly 24 hours after the activity check.
acceptances will begin on sunday at 2pm and the submit will also be reopened then. you may send in your application throughout the day for consideration and if there are no pressing matters to be addressed, acceptances will continue till the day’s end.
* as we operate on a point system, the admins will need a clear line to better organize each character’s weekly sum. points may accumulate throughout the week with in-character activity and task related bonuses which can be tallied by going through the individual character blog archive : blogurl.tumblr.com/archive. as seen on the discord tab ( #points_tracker ), the tracker will restart every sunday. the admins will require each member to submit the template found on the point system page either through the main site’s submit or the discord tab throughout the day on sunday.
our bonus point system awards one point per every five replies ─ because of this, the admins ask that members attempt to round the number to the nearest five. we will not be giving out bonus points to players who exceed or recede on this number ( i.e : if you make nine replies, you will only receive one extra point and if you do twelve replies, you will only receive two extra points ).
thus, we advice members to follow the cut-line time mentioned above and either draft the replies to post after midnight or attempt to squeeze in enough until then so you will not “lose” the points you would have gained with a full five reply count.
once all the points have been accounted for, the complete tracker for all the characters will be found here by monday at 12pm. the admins also ask that members update their own point count page weekly ─ you may follow this format, use the submit template or prepare an excel sheet of your own, just so long as it is linked on your blog !
