open-HEARTS has three factions (touched upon in the LORE journal) based around teenagers with their very own heart’s egg. As your character completes various AQs from the AQ List and gains AP, they’ll eventually become eligible to join a faction of their choosing. For further questions, check out the Alignment Quest FAQ journal.
In order to become a member of a faction, you must take note of the following:
- To join a faction for the first time, a character needs a minimum amount of 8 AP in that respective faction (Subsequent faction changes require double the amount of AP for every change, ex: 16, 32, 64…).
- When they hit that minimum while unaligned, they’ll be alerted to it at AP claim. Similarly, if they drop below that minimum after joining that faction, they’ll be kicked out--which they’ll also be informed of at AP claim.
- When they become eligible for a faction they would like to join, respond to this thread stating their intentions, so that they can join. After that, they’ll have the option to complete an optional AQ detailing their actual IC joining. These AQs (seen below) can be completed only once.
- Take mind that all NPCs of opposing factions will no longer be as willing to trust your character once they join a faction--especially other faction leaders.
When joining a faction, you are also asked to choose a card from your faction’s “deck” for your character to represent. Each faction has a different kind of card system: the Guardians have playing cards, Faberge have tarot (minor arcana), and the Roost have a monster-based TCG. Each deck has 56 cards to choose from; to see a full list of cards, click here!
Note the cards have no major impact on anything--they're only titles; just for fun!
