The players will invent a society with its culture and heritage, and will guide its development and interaction with the world. Emphasis will be be placed on developing a detailed history of Celandra, along with myths and legends.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

  If the game is closed, you may still get in if you submit a society
  the GM just _cannot_ resist. Other than that GM's do accept
suggestions
  from lurkers (like actions/reactions of non-player societies).
  "Fleshing-out"
  non-player societies is encouraged, as is opting to play them.

Since the bolds and underlines do not appear to have survived
transmittal to the celendra list, I have changed the key to use
asterisks.  Most fields are now required, if you are able to write an
action most of these fields should be fairly easy to fill out.  If the
fields are left blank, there is discussion of a penalty to the action.
At the bottom is a cleaner version of the form w/ only the field titles
and asterisks.

  (Key: * = Required;  ** = Strongly recommended;   *** = recommended.)
