Remember that if you take a character, you will also have to play them regularly. You can’t just reserve a character and then do nothing with them. If there’s no post from a character – new or established – for 30 days, we will assume them to be abandoned and free for being claimed by a new player.
Again, if you have a good reason to take a break that long, a post on (http://community.livejournal.com/mad_prophecies/profile)mad_prophecies (http://community.livejournal.com/mad_prophecies/) and status change on (http://community.livejournal.com/safe_house_cast/profile)safe_house_cast (http://community.livejournal.com/safe_house_cast/) can get you an extension. Also, if you have enough advance warning, arrange for your character to leave Lower Tadfield for a time. This shouldn’t happen too often, though. If an important character keeps going on hiatus, we might have to find them a new player in the interest of the other characters whose plots get stuck.
If you don’t have a particular plot to be in at the moment, check for open public threads your character could walk into, or start one of your own. You never know who you might randomly encounter in a corridor or where that meeting might lead you.

You have to actually play your character
