General Roleplay
-
Please review and abide by the Roleplay Standards.
-
Your Minecraft skin must be appropriate and match the persona you are playing.
-
Roleplay must take place within the server’s established lore and medieval-fantasy setting. Exclude real-world history, clones of real-world figures, and lore from other games and fiction from your roleplay.
-
Spoiler
This includes not "inventing" or "creating" things that mirror more modern-day tools or technology, whether by mundane or magical means (refer to Techlock Standards). If you wish to see things of a more advanced nature, you need to write a lore submission for it. If you are interested, more information can be found here (Lore Submission Info)
-
-
Do not troll or meme in roleplay, follow the Roleplay Standards. Always remain in character while in roleplay chat channels.
-
Do not participate in or encourage metagaming or powergaming.
-
Your own characters may not interact with each other. This includes physically being together, transferring items, or otherwise contributing to each other’s ambitions, goals, or stories.
-
Spoiler
You may play your own children, though they may not physically interact in-game.
-
-
Your inventory, actions (ex. punching), and mechanical location are considered admissible in RP. You may not roleplay items that you do not currently possess in your inventory (this excludes small, non-combat and non-magical trinkets such as rings and necklaces).
-
Information on your persona card must match your character, you must always have your persona’s age and race on the card - you may not adjust your character's age artificially to avoid aging. Lore creatures, event creatures, etc. are an exception.
-
Do not set your character name to anything that is offensive, or impersonates another member of the community (and other realms of fiction or non-fiction).
-
You cannot give your persona to another player. The only exceptions are between your own alternative accounts.
-
Spoiler
When a character has a child (<16 years old), the parent player reserves the right to make a request to Moderation Management that the child character be swapped if the person playing the child goes inactive (2 weeks offline or low activity logged).
-
-
Do not share your accounts with anyone. Any action taken is your responsibility. Sharing your accounts with banned players will result in harsher punishment. This includes any alt accounts that are linked to your main account.
-
Do not use alternate accounts to avoid punishments such as bans and blacklists. This leads to ban length extensions.
- Do not set your Minecraft username to anything that is offensive, or impersonates another member of the community. Doing this will result in the account being banned until the name is changed.
Character Death and Permakills
-
When your character dies, they do not recall how it happened or any event leading up to the death. Further, you may not return to the area in which they died until 30 minutes have passed. Even after 30 minutes, you may not interact with the ongoing roleplay scenario that lead to your character’s death.
-
Death by suicide is non-reversible (permakill) unless specific lore states otherwise. Accidental or forced suicide does not count (such as unknowingly drinking a poisoned beverage, or being forced to stab yourself).
-
Referencing monk revival shortly before death, using /d20, or suddenly collapsing due to stress, a heart attack, or bleeding out to forcefully end or avoid roleplay is not cohesive with our Roleplay Standards, and will result in punishment. Repeatedly doing this may result in administration forcefully perma-killing your character.
-
Another player cannot force you to permanently kill a character upon death without your consent, regardless of the situation or any out of character agreements.
-
Spoiler
Lore-enforced and event perma-kill clauses required by staff must be followed if they are specified in the lore, or agreed upon by the player prior to an event. Players who do not agree to these clauses may be removed from an event or have their lore application denied.
-
-
Permanently killing a character can be enforced or reversed by the administration on a case-by-case basis in special circumstances. The one-week permakill take back would not apply for this.
-
If you permanently kill your character, you have one week to reverse your decision with the exception of suicide, an agreed-upon event-perma-kill, or an administration-enforced permakill.
-
Except for certain creatures/magics with a revival mechanic, if a character witnesses their own body after monk revival, they will be unable to recognize it. Further, they will not believe any claim that it is their body, or that they even died.
-
Bodies and body parts are not dragged away by monks, remaining after death and revival.
-
If a character is revived, they may not reference notes they left for themselves prior to visiting a group or location as evidence they were killed.
-
Witnessing (or fabricating) a character's non-PK death and ruling the individual to be "Undead" when learning they have been revived is permitted.
Prohibited Roleplay
-
Sexually explicit or graphic roleplay is forbidden. You must ‘fade-to-black’. Characters under the age of 18 may not fade-to-black.
-
Fading to black, or more commonly known as an FTB is an emote in which the screen ‘fades out.’ Prior to a graphic or explicit scene, you are expected to emote the screen ‘fading out.’ No graphic, sexually explicit, or erotic / fetish (references to) roleplay takes place on the server.
-
-
Brothels, prostitution, rape, beastiality, pedophilia, grooming, and necrophilia are prohibited and may not even be mentioned in roleplay or backstories.
-
Relationships with playable humanoid races do not count as beastiality.
-
'Grooming' is defined as: Romance-based roleplay, relationships, engagements, marriages, etc. involving characters 18 years of age, unless all characters involved are within two years of age.
-
We consider the age of maturity to be 18 years of age. Regardless of the medium, we will take action against players who use our community as a means to engage in predatory behaviour towards others. If you feel unsafe due to the actions of another player, please email [email protected]
