Casting
The writers are committed to a diverse casting policy. Due to the source material some characters in this game are strongly binary gendered. The writers have made efforts to ensure a range of characters are available who are not. There are also a number of gender-neutral characters, who can be played as the player prefers. We will cast players (with their permission) as characters of other genders if the casting mix requires.
The GMs wish to be clear that we have written a range of romances into play, including explicitly non-het relationships, and we support players playing the type of romances that they choose. There are aro and ace characters, along with the regular “no romance plots please”. Preferences will be asked for on the casting form.
