Otherworldly OOC

I was hoping this would be self-evident, but apparently it needs to be
explicitly stated: identities in this world are the only ones that
matter. Don't go around telling people who your characters in other
worlds are, and especially do not persecute for grudges from another
realm.

No matter what a reputation you think you had, revealing a former
identity is only going to work against you here by exposing old grudges
and irrelevant pigeonholing. Social institutions and conventions are
(obviously) different here - and things will continue to develop quite
differently. The less baggage you bring from other places, the more you
will get out of Aetolia.

I have already heard of several cases of people harassing others because
they found out who someone was in Achaea. This will simply not be
tolerated. Those who can't muster enough maturity to leave old grudges
behind will be dealt with severely.

Fortunately, most people have been very good about fostering a fresh
start. Please make an effort to establish a new identity here and allow
others to do the same. There is little to lose and much to gain in doing
so.
