Site Rules

Show Complete Respect to each player- Do not start arguments or personally attack any person for any reason. Stay kind and friendly so everyone can have a good time.
Absolutely No Cursing of any kind- This is not tolerated in the least and will result in a warning. If further foul language continues to occur after the warning it may lead to a banning.
No Inappropriate Material- If anything inappropriate is found you will be warned followed by a banning if it is not fixed. Depending on the material immediate banning may occur.
Keep Violence at PG-13 and the rest at PG- This is a family-friendly RP site and is for everyone. Moderate violence is okay, but do not get too graphic. Everything else keep at PG only.
No Spamming or Multiple Posts-This means do not post something completely unrelated to the subject and no posting over and over again when no one else has posted yet. There is an edit button for a reason, use it.
No god-modding- This means you cannot control another player's character. You have your own characters, you cannot take over another person's.
No One Sentence Posts- When RPing you cannot only post one or two sentences. I know it can be hard sometimes but please try. It is hard for others to continue the RP if everyone is just writing one or two sentences every post.
Keep it Literate- Make sure to check over any spelling or grammar errors before clicking the post button. Depth to your posts is encouraged. If too many errors are found in your post you may be asked to fix it. Most Internet browsers offer spell check and if not there are other means like Microsoft Word to make sure everything is correct. Please use these in order to keep the forum clean and posts easy to read for others.
Try to Stay Active- If you are going to be away for a while or leaving the site for good be sure to post in the Departures/Leaving board. This is important.
You May Have Your Own RP Thread- This means that you may make a thread to RP in that only you post in, even if it is just one of your characters. Sometimes our characters might be alone, or even in different Kingdoms, so we might need to just RP with ourselves for a while. If you want to do that, that is perfectly fine. But please include in the subject of the thread that it is for you only in parenthesis. Ex. 'Trailing Alone (Aer Only)'
Put in Parenthesis Who the RP is For- Prior to the rule before this, if you have a RP thread that is just for you and another person or two please include on the subject in parenthesis which characters it is exclusive to. Ex. 'Finding a Path (Loen and Yura Only)' If there is nothing in parenthesis then it will be assumed that the RP is open to all.

Any disregard to these rules will lead to a warning or banning.

Character Rules

You may have Multiple Characters- You are allowed multiple characters but only if you are able to keep up with them.
Keep your Characters Active- If one of your characters is found severely inactive you will be warned by PM that he/she is at risk of deletion.
No Invincible Characters- This is not tolerated. You characters will get hit, they cannot dodge every blow as well as they cannot completely damage another character without getting injured him/herself. Any fighting needs to be rather realistic as in you will get wounded at times.
No Mary Sues/Gary Stus- This is when your character is overly perfect. Everyone you make loves them and they have no flaws. All characters should have flaws of some kind, they are still human. Try to make them realistic, it is no fun for others when they are not.
Absolutely No Inappropriate Pictures- Any pictures that are inappropriate or revealing in any way is not tolerated. You will be asked to change it and if not complied will be followed by a banning.
Make a New Thread for Each Character Sheet- For each character you make please use a new thread for each instead of using one thread for all of them. Also, just put their full name in the subject title and keep it orderly and easy to find everyone's profiles. It does require there be at least 10 letters in the title, so you may need to put something like 'Varlexia of VOD' instead of just 'Varlexia' in order to make it long enough. But try to keep it orderly.

You must read and follow these rules before making a character. Any disregard of the rules may lead to a banning.

Please respect all of the rules. If you are not sure about something or have any questions at all feel free to PM me, I am more than happy to help!
