Server Philosophy

The Bottom Line Network is a open-fantasy roleplay server that prioritizes freedom of choice for the player. Mostly driven by improvised stories, every player enters as a blank page and leaves with a canvas. Focusing on Collaborative World Building, everything is made through interaction. Staff Members serve through Alternative accounts to keep the separation between Playing the Server and Duties to the Server. While allowing the story to be held in the palm of the Player.

The World Listens, and it Remembers.
