Read Me First!
Prior to submitting a Player Application please familiarize yourself with the following.
1: Ensure you have read the game premise to be found here:
https://forum.atlas-games.com/t/saga-premise/172257/2
2: Familiarize yourself with the Covenant, its location, and other setting fundamentals to be found here:
https://forum.atlas-games.com/t/inchmore-covenant-general-information/172248/9
3: Be aware if you are not familiar with the Hibernia Tribunal book that there are significant differences in the Peripheral Code and in Hermetic Culture in general in the Tribunal. You are strongly advised to read the setting for yourself to be well prepared and familiar with all relevant differences.
4: Be advised that we as a team have intrinsically a more Sandbox as opposed to Narrative approach to RPGs. This means we will be striving to present realistic and interesting options and verisimilitude to players but not to direct narrative arcs in the manner which many people are currently accustomed. This requires a good deal more proactivity and self direction on the part of players as a play style.
If you are less familiar with Sandbox as an RPG playstyle I recommend reading this:

5: This game is aimed at traditional Ars Magica Troupe style play and to that end each player will be expected to participate/facilitate with the playing of additional Companion and/or Grog tier characters. Each player will only be allowed one Magus or Mythic Companion tier character.
6: We as a team believe strongly in the collaborative nature of Ars Magica. Players are encouraged to participate in world-building along any line that interests them. New material can be submitted to the Alpha Storyguide for adjudication and inclusion in the Saga. Significant contributions to the Covenant, Setting, or otherwise significant materials incorporated into the shared space of the Saga will be rewarded.
