There are a few ways characters can interact with this:
Characters receive a notification to please fill out the form, which is fully optional.
When forms are not filled out, they are filled out by the companion bots of Etraya! This means that while the character themself is not choosing to play with CHIRPER, their player still can.
Other characters can be prompted to fill out their friends' profiles for them.
Alternatively, they choose not to fill out the form, and it remains unfilled!
This is just a fun little way of expanding CR. For those who do post a top level, CHIRPER toplevels are worth five extra points regardless of if they are put up willingly by the character themselves. These five extra points do apply to the 25 maximum per month.
Once characters' profiles are up, other characters will be given the option of giving them a "like" or a "dislike" (using ✓ and ✕ symbols in the subject line of the comment) but they can also provide an answer as to why they gave that answer! Or just respond to the contents of their profile, +1ing the fact that if Barnabas were to get laid more often, maybe he would be less of a sourpuss.

Hello. My name is Aurora. My duty is to oversee your comfort and the daily workings of Etraya, as well as provide information for upcoming missions.
Any relation to the Raven Queen? I've had the pleasure of meeting one of her servants, and the job mostly seems to involve lurking around looking for souls or memories to collect while being lectured by a bird.
Something for you to look forward to, perhaps. Or perhaps they're different gods altogether and you'll be spared a raven squawking commands in your ear.
There's no such thing as electric lighting or heating, for one thing. The technology here, generally speaking, is well beyond what I'm used to. Magic, on the other hand, is prevalent in Fearûn. Clerics, like myself, are granted magic by the gods. And the gods are keen to make their presence known.
We're positively overrun with death gods. There's the Raven Queen, of course, who seems more concerned with collecting trinkets and memories than anything. I believe she mostly bothers with the elves of the Shadowfell, when it comes to harbouring dead souls. There's Kelemvor, who judges departed souls. Jergal, who records the fate of the dead. And then there's Myrkul, Lord of Pretentious Dullardry and by far the worst of the lot.
Our worlds have that in common. There's more magic than the amount of science I've seen here. There is an inventor in our group, but much of what I've seen here is beyond what my world knows.
It also sounds like your world has far more gods than my own. There is only one goddess of death where I'm from. Other gods rule other realms.
Count yourself lucky, then. Gods are careless, callous things. The fewer of them you've got to deal with, the better.
Judging by that picture of yours, you aren't human, are you? It's welcome to meet someone else from a world where humans aren't the only sapient species.
Was that a choice you made, to become her champion, or a choice she made for you?
There's a goblin here who did a sort of survey on it a long time ago. Most people are from worlds where elves – and goblins, and dwarves, and so on – are considered fictional creatures.
It is. And yet here they are, proclaiming that you and I are nothing more than creatures out of a storybook. I'd think it a joke at our expense if so many from all sorts of different worlds hadn't said as much.

[ Vax doesn't think he can handle more. ]
I'm half-elf. My mother was human. My father.. well, my father's a dick.
There are many races where I come from. Human, halfing, dwarf, half-giants, and plenty more.
no subject
Another half-elf? We're few and far between here. I've only met one other person of elven descent in Etraya besides you and I.
no subject
Yeah, I noticed. I wonder if this means there are not many universes with our kind.

[ So was it a choice? Not entirely. But it was a bargain struck, and Vax means to honor it. ]
What? Fictional? That's fucking rude.

no subject
Funny. I guess they had to make up people as wonderful as the two of us, eh?
no subject
Careful; flattery will get you everywhere. What is it that makes you so wonderful, Vax'ildan Vessar?
no subject
And apparently, I'm good at 'acting cool'. 'Acting' is just what my sister or my friends would say.
