Well, I was thinking. The jobs, how does that work? Is it IC or OOC? How do you get one? How long does it last? Etc. you know, a bit of detail? Has anyone gotten a job yet?

In character. You get a job like you would in real life, that is, either walk into a shop and say "have you got any work available", or otherwise create your own business, etc. This being the case, Jobs last as long as you can manage to / wish to keep them in character, thereby you must actually RP what happens to your character while at work, with input from a ref. If you perform you duties poorly, then I'd imagine you would be fired.

Actually, I think the entire concept can be summed up by saying "Jobs are totally IN CHARACTER".

I had been meaning to ask something like this myself: How much money can one expect to earn at such a job?

That is sort of like a 'job,' yes, but in no way will that be a constant stream of income unless you are like a god with whatever program you use.

So, yes, Reptar, they are, but other than those shops, all jobs must be IN CHARACTER.

I know you're out there somewhere...
Nope. No no no and no. You can be an assassin yes, but no assassin faction in Nightengale. It goes against their ideals.
