All requests to spend XP to increase traits should be submitted using the following method:

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx+xpspend Spend Value=Reason

xxxxxSpend should state the trait and level you're requesting and Value the level you are buying it up to xxxxxReason should explain why and how you are learning it.

XP Accrual

On Fulcrum, every Sunday all approved characters that have connected in the previous week who have less than 100 xp will receive a 4 XP 'drip'. In addition to this, you can vote your fellow players, each +vote is initially worth .2 XP: the value slowly reduces, based on the number of votes they have already received that week.

+Recc's are another way to receive XP. Staff can +recc you for involvement in their plots. Players can +recc you for a scene they feel was impactful.

XP Costs For All

Almost all traits require XP to raise, typically dependent on your current rating (CR) of that trait. XP costs, as listed within the +news xp files, are not negotiable.

There is no minimal wait time for XP spends to be approved or processed. Sphere Wizards can decide the wait time based on any number of factors they feel are relevant.

Attribute CR x 4
New Ability 3
Ability CR x 2
Willpower CR x 1

The number of traits you may raise at one time is equal to your Intelligence rating. Of those spends, only one may be a sphere-specific trait.

Only one XP spend is allowed per +xpspend. See +news xp for submission format.

Merits and Flaws

Post character creation, merits and flaws can not be bought. However, they can be earned with your Sphere Wizard's permission through story. When they are earned in story, there is no cost for either merit or flaw.

Backgrounds

Players can not purchase backgrounds post character creation save for some very specific sphere related backgrounds. Backgrounds however, can be earned or lost at no cost of XP as determined by your Sphere Wizard.

Shifter Specific XP Costs

Caption text
Gift in TBA Level of Gift x 3
Gift out of TBA Level of Gift x 5
Rage CR
Gnosis CR x 2
Totem Background 2 per Level purchased. Can be purchased at any time.

Some gift spends will require scenes, some will not. Rage and Gnosis spends are solely at the discretion of the Shifter Wizard, as they are a reflection of the character you play. Rage and Gnosis can only be lost through very specific circumstances and are considered incredibly rare, but not impossible. Purchasing Willpower should be considered difficult post character generation, but not impossible. If you are wanting to purchase Willpower, contact the Shifter Wizard. Renown can not be bought with XP. If you are part of a pack/group/pride you can not have a personal totem and a Group totem. If you are part of a group, you must have a minimum of 3 PCs to have your group qualify for a totem, if the group drops below 3, you will lose your totem.
