Out Of Character
OOC comments, make sure that everyone can tell it's not part of your post
Don't have a grudge against somebody just because they fought one of your characters
Swearing is allowed, keep it to a minimum though
Please keep it PG-13 rated
If you don't have the energy or muse to make a reply then don't reply!
If you are gone for 2 weeks without notice then you will most likely be deleted from your land, no jokes
After reading all the rules go post your character's stats in the joining board, you do not have to wait to be accepted unless staff is on, then it'd be nice if you told them and you'll be accepted. *If your character is not accepted, but you've already posted with them since staff wasn't on when you created it, the post will most likely be locked until the character is accepted.
IC
Quality over quantity; the most important thing to me is not that you post five billion pages of role-playing but that what you do post is good quality.
We expect basic grammar, this means capitalizing names, beginnings of sentences and your I’s. Quotation marks around speech and paragraphs are also necessary as well as some rudimentary understanding of punctuation. Mistakes every now and then are fine as no one is perfect.
Give important detail. You have to know what to focus on when writing. I (and I’m sure many other roleplayers) don’t want to know about exactly which parts of your characters body were licked this morning, but we will want to know what they are thinking and how they are feeling.
Each post should be no less than five-sentences long at a minimum, or at least 100 words
Characters
As many as you can keep active, if you have inactive charries - any new ones you try to make will not be accepted
You're character can be either a light, neutral, or a dark. Darks are evil, mean, cruel etc. Lights are the opposite. Neutral are somewhere in the middle... I cannot stress this enough lights and darks do not get along.
If you don't want to play a character anymore notify me and the people your character rped with. Then put your wolf in the adoption post and someone else can RP it
No god-modeling.
You can only POSE attacks at opponents, you can't say 'Bites other hard on the neck, tearing away skin and pulling out tons of blood, while the other gasps for breath..' blah blah you aren't allowed to say the outcome of your attack, just pose an attack 'bites at neck, hoping to hit the juguar vein'... w/e
Try to have unique names, look at the taken names post and make sure your name isn't already taken. After you make a character, post their name in the 'taken names' post so i can keep it up to date
Lands
No more lands will be created just because you want one. If you want one, fight for it
Inactivity in a land for two weeks will result in your losing it
I want some interaction between lands. Go say Hi to your neighbor, dammit
Breeding
Force breeding may happen only when a female is unattended in the breeding grounds
Put a * in your name if you want to graphic breed
You may only breed in the breeding grounds!!
The password to the joining board is lucky.
Fighting
No wolf is perfect, you will get hurt.
You do not control the other wolf. You aim attacks at them, it is up to them if you strike or not.
Anything may be fought over[land, females, etc]
Please post it in the designated area[the crimson gorge], making it clear who the challenge is for and over what.
Staff does the final judging. You will be judged on your post content and quality. Staff decides the winner and the aftermath.
Both players must agree before a death occurs.
After 1 real week if the other player does not reply you win by default (as long as the player has not posted away).
Who ever wins cannot be challenged for at least one season (game time)
If you do not wish to fight then you forfeit, you cannot just refuse to fight, for any reason.
Signatures and Avatars
Please stick to wolf pictures only
If your picture doesn't fit in the margins and is resizing the page, it's too big!
Include ALL of the wolves you RP in your signature - ex. their name, pack, gender, and affiliation (dark, light, neutral). You must at least have all their names, but to keep things organized and neat it might help you to add more information about them.
All Avatars should be 100x100 [we are working on some 'premades' that you may choose from if you are unable to find a suitable image]
Keep signatures free from racism, excessive cussing, the whole bit, and never say anything about another member unless you asked them beforehand (even if you're 'joking')
