Being set in a vaguely medieval world, it stands to reason that the creatures who inhabit As’dra would have a means of quickly contacting one another via written or spoken correspondence. Enter the Messengers of Yggdrasil: strange creatures who see through the eyes of Yggdrasil rather than their own. The birds who appear to transport correspondence are loosely resemblant of ravens, but their pearlescent feathers, bone-smooth faces, and the world flowers blooming where eyes should be set them apart as something altogether unnatural.

1. Despite having no apparent eyes, these birds are very good at tracking movement, and do not seem to be blind at all.
2. Other than relaying perfect copies of a message, the messengers do not speak.
3. Messenger birds are somewhat robotic in nature; something seems off about them.
4. Other than written letters, they can also carry small items for delivery.
5. When summoned, they seem to appear from a rift of sorts in the world. Upon delivery of a message, they will wait for a response or disappear back into the rift.
6. Attack or interception of a messenger bird will result in the bird and correspondence vanishing immediately. Delivery to the recipient will fail. (Information about how to perform these rolls will be provided in a future update.)
7. All message content is considered confidential between the sender and recipient.
8. Messengers on average take 2-4 days to deliver any correspondence.
9. Characters who are being held as prisoners or captives cannot utilize the messenger system.

1. Create a thread in the Message Center; the thread title must include (but is not limited to) the name of the message recipient.
2. Messages are sent in real-time when they are posted; you must wait a minimum of 2 days before sending a return message. During this time, a character may attempt to intercept the message before delivery.
3. Messages are posted from the IC account that is sending the message.
4. Messages can be assumed to be written or spoken based on player preference, but all follow the same posting method.
5. Players may use a site provided posting template or create their own if desired.
