This is a thread that is meant to answer some questions about the server.
It will also serve as information for what it will be upon launch.
ANY QUESTIONS CAN BE ASKED BELOW AND THEY'LL BE ADDED HERE...I ONLY ADDED QUESTIONS THAT I HAVE GOTTEN SEVERAL TIMES IN MY DM'S AND OTHER PLACES

How will New Blood differ from Mirage of Freedom?
Mirage of Freedom had mistakes on our teams part that we feel hurt it in the long run. Such things as the A.W.S and it's improper use which lead to a feeling that everything was event oriented, when in fact it was supposed to be a way to keep track of the server and follow along with it while allowing players to move the plot when they want.
With New Blood we plan full autonomy. Expanded loot points, artifact fields, and NPC traders that will allow for players to consistently do what they desire. Another thing we plan to do is to enforce player ran factions and consistently keep track of their actions and adventures. You are here to make your story, and always our job is to help. This means that there WILL be a main narrative story however it will not be the main story of the server. Several side plots will be presented and players can even start their own goals and journeys by themselves. The leash is off here, and players can practically do everything just short of reaching the Wish Granter and finding out how Sidorovich got a chicken leg in the zone.
We are also going to double down on an economy, which was vacant due to personal motivation upon my end + the ending arc coming to a close. We made a mistake on when to try and implement something like this and from day 1 we'll have new systems in place to support an economy and help build it. Such as repairing your gear, selling artifacts, selling crafting materials, and buying it all back. These sort of things will be done with player controlled Traders that will be within the zone along with technicians. These two new roles being the driving force in ensuring that we can properly establish a system and an economy that'll give players some things to do in their free time.
Can I play whoever I want?
Yes!...Sort of.
Players can practically play whoever they want on server, even bandits. These positions can be played out at any time without a worry in the world. The applications spot is really just to fan out the factions we plan to use and allowing players to go and play them during events that we use them/have a chance to make it their main character if they hold the desire to do so.
However you cannot just create a character for such factions as Duty or Freedom randomly. You obviously cannot create characters from these factions and expect things to occur. We will enforce an application process on such exclusive factions that we do have formats for. The 'Play whoever I want' sort of deal means we will have absolutely no restriction on the characters background prior the zone. Afghanistan vet? Sure! Corrupt politician? Go for it. Police officer? Hell yeah! These sort of things can be played out without anything for applications--however responsibility is to be trusted here, as we obviously do not want to see POTUS running amongst the zone or a former Navy Seal astronaut. Create your character with realism in mind.
tl;dr: Yes you can create whoever you want but responsibility and faction information has to be noted.
