Every now and then, the situation may come up that it would be far easier to play multiple characters on one account. Siblings, partners, inseparable best friends, siamese twins... the list goes on and on. However, we have a character per account system, so surely you just have to create several accounts and then make multiple awkward posts to get their interactions across, especially when those interactions are simple and swift enough to be accomplished in a single post. Dear me!
Well, not anymore. If you have multiple characters you'd like to merge onto one account, there isn't much to it besides the fact that there needs to be some justification for it. It will mess a bit with the organization system, yes, but all for the better. You're still perfectly welcome to do the awkward interaction thing, and indeed it will earn you more posts which will go into the money system at some point, but this is a bit easier in my personal opinion.
To create a joint account, make sure you have all characters in your signature/display name/elsewhere visible for reference! Also, in the event that you only play only one for a post or thread, put their name somewhere in the post (preferrably as a title of sorts) so that we don't get confused. As for the apps, treat each as an individual character unless they're merged by some twist of fate, (in which case you just need separate personality/history/trivia/etc. sections) and from there you're welcome to put them in one post, put them in separate posts in one thread, or just make separate threads. Eventually there will most likely be a joint app, but until then just create your own or use multiple ordinary apps. Just make sure to let us know it's still a WIP until you post all characters, so long as you're putting them in the same thread! We don't want to accidentally accept an unfinished application.
There is no limit to the number of characters that a joint account can hold, but we suggest a limit of three for the sake of sanity. I'd hate to see what sort of mutant beast has twenty-five separate heads!
