Welcome to the RP rules. Here you can see how we RP and what is and isn't allowed.
** We do not tolerate cheap RP, but we can help improve ones or teach them to if they are willing to listen to their teacher.
** New role players are always welcomed here. Make sure you follow these rules. If you don't, you will be warned or worse.
** The rules of a RP are very important.
** Rules are to keep order and peace for our dream.
** They are not made up to restrict and hold some one back, with out rules every thing would be chaos. They're also meant to kept RP fair and fun for whatever members are participating in it.
So with that! Here is a list of rules that are always involved::
Doing this is usually one way for a person to try to get others to fear that character thus giving it more freedom to do what it wants. You can't be invincible for nothing is indestructible. If you insist your character is immortal you will be ignored by rpers here. If we see it, you will be warned immediately, refusing can get you banned..
This will keep players from trying to be invincible. For I've seen many times that one player in a hard battle will end up saying "Heals" when ever there character ends up taking damage. Thus basically making this character invincible in a sense. It's incredibly annoying and no one wants to RP with some one like that. A character can have healing abilities, BUT if it got into a battle you must wait at least a day (OOC/IC time) to do even a quarter healing, then, you have to deal with the rest for the next few days.
This is a obvious rule. This is likely to get you kicked out on the spot if it is done. If your player has the ability to use instant kills it is most likely you are trying to make your character the strongest of them all and make every one else's character avoid or fear you. This could end up angering the other players as well. You will be banned if you do this unless you undo it. This is NOT tolerated. Ones who think that who ever says their character is the strongest when they truly have no back up, just says your the weakest. Some packs think 3-6 posts to kill a character. No. Our battles can last over hours, we've even had over 4 hours done before if enjoyable enough. But you must die if you have taken serious damage, meaning it's unlikely you will last 30 minutes in a life or death battle between characters.
This makes RP for another player frustrating and very irritating. For instance of a unfair post: "Bob bluepaws: He grabbed her by the back leg lifting her from the ground and slamming her into a rock knocking her unconscious and breaking her spine" That's just horrible RP and goes against all laws of nearly any decent RP dream. First of all, unless you're twice the size of the opposite player (Please ask, don't guess for the sake of drama.) you couldn't even pick up another character that easily let alone flick her into a rock. Second If you were to grab and pull the back leg, the best effect you would get if the other was around your size is a face plant. Third it is up to the other player to decide if it's enough to loose consciousness, not up to you, that is power playing. Fourth, if you wanted to knock the character into a rock, best you could do is ram them into it if possible. More god-modding is like "Bob bluepaws: Turns into 10 dragons that are invincible and roasts every one" The funny thing is we actually seen this pathetic RP, that is a real example, and that person was banned after.
Character must have some limits for their size. Depending on your creature of course. Some are larger then others. You must follow the animals normal size though if your creature is mutated or some how different with physical appearance you may go over a little. You can not be this giant house cat the size of a gorilla.. For one that's a little weird.. No wolves being over 4ft! So stay under 4ft on fours and 7ft on twos. You will be banned if you refuse or throw a fit. Also, weight must be around normal animals, may add 100+ or -100 at times. Animals like lions can only reach the max size they would in real life, unless we say other wise.
Yes this is allowed. You may be as violent as you wish. Doesn't really matter. Be as poetic as you want about it, too. The better you do, the more points you will earn. We do use serious gore.. be aware and ready if your character meets another aggressive character. So don't be surprised if you see this.
What you do with your mate is between you two, but leave it out of everyone's sight. We do like to keep that realistic so no magical babies that appear out of no where. It's weird, unrealistic and annoying. Try to also have a realistic amount of young for what ever your creature is. So no big cats having 8 cubs or wolves having more than 6 pups.... Also, you must be over a year and 5 months to have a mate and a year and 5 months to have young.** HOWEVER YOU CAN BE SMITTIN WITH YOUR FUTURE PARTNER AT A YOUNG AGE :: Say 10 months**
