Map of Artemia
Information and Claims

Welcome to Artemia!

Our world is called Artemia, after the once great Artemian Empire that expanded vast lands and originated much of our history. What history you ask? That is where you come in! As a roleplayer, your job is to develop the history of your nation, and in turn help create our world history. In order to do that, however, you first need to have a place on our world map:

Blank Map | Blank Plots Map

You will have noticed that each plot in the map is numbered. As a user, you are allowed to claim one main plot and one secondary plot. You can use them to roleplay two different nations, one nation colonising the other or any other variation, provided that you follow these rules:

• Your secondary claim cannot be more than half the area of your primary claim.
  
• You cannot merge your two claims as a single nation, but colonial claims are allowed.
  
• You are not compelled to claim a secondary plot.
  

There are also some rules to which all nations are subjected, be they primary or secondary claims:

• Each claim must be attached to a corresponding nation residing in Selene.
  
• Your claim will be removed from the map if its underlying nation ceases to exist or if it stops residing in Selene, or if you have failed to participate in nation-based roleplay at least twice a month.
  
• If you will be absent for an extended period of time and may not meet the activity requirement, you should reply to this thread with that information, so you can be temporarily excused from that requirement.
  
• You may not try to claim more plots than is allowed, nor may you use different accounts to circumvent the claims limit. Please avoid having your relatives and friends play the game on the same device and network as you. We have no way of knowing if a user is truly your friend or relative, or if you're just trying to circumvent the claims limit.
  

With these rules in mind, it is time for you to claim a plot!

Please copy the following form, past it as a reply to this thread, and fill out all the required information:

Code:

[b]MAP APPLICATION FORM[/b]

[b]Nation in Selene:[/b] [nation]Selene Nation Here[/nation]
[b]Nation Name:[/b] Nation Name Here
[b]Plot Number:[/b] Number Here
[b]Type of Claim:[/b] Primary / Secondary
[b]Capital City:[/b] Name / Location
[b]Customisation:[/b] Other Cities / Locations

Keep in mind the following tips regarding the above form:

• Write the name of your nation, without its pretitle (Republic of, Kingdom of), between the [nation] brackets.
  
• Your nation on the map may have a different name than that of your nation in Selene.
  
• I try to accommodate customisation requests, but please keep in mind that I will only add cities, not forts, bases, forests or any other detail, and the number of cities to be added will depend on the size of your plot.
  
• You may still have as many cities as you wish, they just will not be on the actual map, due to space considerations.
  
• Type of Claim is where you indicate if your claim is Primary or Secondary. If you are filing for both, your Secondary claim will need a separate form.
  

In all cases, I retain the right to refuse to add a certain claim, be it because the nation name violates regional rules, because the cities contain offensive language, because the customisation requests are unreasonable, or because of similar reasons. In those cases, I will provide a clear explanation of why I have refused to add a claim or part of it, and allow the claimant to respond.

I will usually update the map each Saturday or Sunday, but will pre-clear all claims as soon as possible. If your claim is pre-cleared, you should be good to start roleplaying, since your nation is guaranteed to be added to the map on the next update.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask here. We are all friendly and will try our best to answer all your questions.

Welcome!
