Communities & Mod-Controlled Journals
In Character
- age_of_miracles : Primary in-character community. Threads, logs, and narratives are posted here, all in third-person past tense. If a character sends a handwritten note or letter, or sends someone a package, that type of post is also included in this community.
- aom_network : Designated for electronic communications between characters that aren't based on the journal network. This includes all e-mails, in-character IM conversations, cell phone messages. (However, live telephone calls should go in the main community.) The network community also includes posts from mutant-related websites, such as x-resistance.org and x-traordinary.org.
- aom_flashbacks : Community for threads, logs, and narratives that happened in the significant past----either filling in a gap the game left out or happening prior to the game's start in January 2006.
- aom_au : Scenarios happening in alternate universes. There have been several prompts for the AU community, whether it involves improbable sexual situations or building a new world with the same characters. The posts in this community have no bearing on the actual occurrences in age_of_miracles.
