Relevant Community Rules Apply

You must be 18+ to play here.
You must be courteous to others in OOC and LOOC.
You must not provoke others.

Rule #0 - Admin Discretion is King

Admins can take action against players who degrade the server quality, even beyond specific rule violations. Those who are deemed boring or unfit for the server will be removed after discussion by staff.

Players must respect the setting and contribute to immersion. Staff may guide you on staying within the setting’s boundaries. Staff also reserves the right to remove anyone engaging in malicious behavior, such as griefing or metagrudging.

Rule #1 -

Rule #1 - The Rule of Interesting

The Rule of Interesting is the expectation that you act in ways that give others something fun, meaningful, or dramatic to play off of over quick and boring resolutions.

One should be focused on creating engaging and dynamic narratives. Instead of focusing solely on winning or immediate resolution, players are encouraged to build compelling stories and character interactions with motives that justify their action.

Outside of rules in regards to player conduct and requirements, this is the most important rule when it comes to dictating the flow of the game and takes precedence.
