I saw this on another pw and thought it might be of good use for Shattered Souls - just an idea for your consideration:
Player Journals. Not the ingame journal. I won't say where I saw this because I don't want to give them any undue advertising
(but if Admin would like to know to check it out - let me know)
Each player creates his own character journal (create topic) that only the player uses. It is considered a journal that is written by the player 'In Character' and though can be read by other players is considered OOC to do so. The info contained can not be used by other players IC. It is a roleplaying tool that can be referenced by a DM at anytime to see what the character has been up to, goals, etc... and could help in supporting DM'd events, and acts as a tool to the player as well.
In the PW where I saw this, it was very successful. Topic names were "Journal of Player Name" for example and some used it to write creatively of their experiences in the game, some used it to keep notes or to remind them what they had to do next time they logged on, etc...
Just thought it would be a great addition, I know I would use it.
