We’re hiring Warcry shapers, writers and more!
Your World Shaping Council have been working hard getting World Plot and our Warcry storyline moving into full swing. We’re attempted to write an event the scale of which Underworld has never done in the past. With an event this massive we’re going to need some help.
We’re excited to announce that we’re now looking to hire on the rest of your Warcry team. While Kieran and I are more than willing to pour in extra hours to make this event great, we cannot do it alone. If you want in on the largest Underworld event of the year (and probably ever, given how things have been growing) then the time has come for you to follow your destiny and be the World influencing badass staff member you were always meant to be! Yeah destiny… this is foretold. It’s not propaganda.
World Shapers (5) - Must attend Warcry
World Shapers this year will assist with running Warcry. World Shapers will be responsible for assisting with writing and carrying out the main Warcry storyline. World Shapers will likely be given a focus area, however, all plots World Shapers run will relate to the Warcry overarching storyline.
World Shapers may also write other World storylines as needed, at the discretion of the World Shaper Team Leads (David and Kieran). World Shapers may assist in carrying out World Plot at the guild level, but only as directed by the World Team Leads and that Guild’s Guildmaster. Other duties may be assigned as needed.
World Shapers must be able to attend Warcry. You will be expected to Shaper the event but will be given a one 3-hour “PC break” at Warcry.
World Shapers should expect to meet about twice a month via Discord with the Lead Shapers to help with writing and Warcry prep. World Shapers will be expected to assist with set up, take down and clean up at Warcry.
Additional each World Shaper will be given a budget for a specific costume if applicable. You are required to build that costume on your own but the expense will be covered by us.
Payment details: $150, 2 Blankets, 25 frags at the Guild of your choice.
Bonuses from net profit (If we stay in budget and actually make money)
World Narrators (3) - Must attend Warcry
Narrators will assist with writing the World Plot as directed by the World Shaper they are assigned to. Narrators will each be responsible for playing major NPC(s). Narrators are not always directly responsible for writing plot, but rather carry or act it out, as a consistent role. Narrators are an important role to the Warcry team, as they help free the Shapers up from running the necessary NPC roles and writing the plot. Narrators will be the ones on the ground with the PCs, listening to their needs and reporting back to their World Shaper so we can react appropriately. Narrators may also stay in-game for extended periods of time, to add immersion and continuity to our most major storylines. Narrators should be experienced LARPers with strong roleplay abilities, a good memory for storylines, can work as part of team, and have the ability to meet specific goals and targets while adapting on the fly and responding to PCs. Narrators are literally meant to be the heartbeat of the Warcry storyline - you will be the ones making the game right on the ground.
Narrators (for obvious reasons) must be able to attend Warcry. Narrators will be given two 3-hour “PC breaks” at Warcry.
Narrators should expect to meet with the World Shaper Team intensively (meaning up to once every week) in the three months leading up to Warcry to help with writing and preparation. Narrators should expect to assist with set up, take down and clean up at Warcry.
Payment details: $100, 2 Blankets, 15 frags at the Guild of your choice
