1. Characters vs. Nations.
You do not have to run a nation. You may be a character within a nation someone runs or inside one of the NPC nations. If you do wish to join a player run nation (note - I also control the NPC nations) you must and I mean MUST get their explicit permission to join their nation. The own of said nation must PM about it, otherwise you will not be allowed to join their nation.
2. Metagamming and Posts.
When you are making it a post that contains both something directly related to your character, and then a separate paragraph about something in your nation that does not mean your leader knows instantaneously what is going on all over your nation. This is not the 21st century this is equivalent to the early Renaissance so news could take day or weeks to travel and months across the world.
3. Know the Renaissance tech level.
Guns right now are a mute point and are not in this as this is not the Mid-Renaissance. Canons are in this but are bombards, so they are very large, very slow to move and take hours to cool down after firing once or twice. They are prone to explode, crack or otherwise breakdown. They cannot be mounted on walls or ships for now. Through the RP it is possible to introduce technological innovations for gunpowder technology and arguably steam power as that is "technically" feasible at this time.
4. Action Consequences.
Be mindful as each action has consequences. Some good and some bad. If you execute someone it has the possibility of stirring unrest in your nation, that if not handled properly could grow into an underground that after some time and again not being handled properly could form into a revolt and eventually a rebellion. That could ignite a Civil War or warrant surrounding nations to invade you in order to stabilize you.
5. Wars.
Now I would prefer to be able to role play battles and thus wars, however I am nervous about handing that much power over to each individual as fairly role playing such events takes a high level of skill and the ability to concede sometimes without attempting to one up and power game or god mod. As such we will try a combination of Role playing the battles out and having dice roll to see what actions have what affects and consequences. Ultimately though a war will depend on the logistics and the strategies implemented though brute force and numbers couldn't hurt too much :3
6. Character Death.
Now if you are like me you tend to get quite attached to your characters and their death can really sting and even turn you off of an RP. To that point, character death is sometimes necessary for the furthering of the plot and the story. As such killing a character will require their permission, that of the Admin (me) and the rolling of dice to see how the odds stack up. Now ultimately the fate of the character's death will rest in the hands of the Admin, and a character could be killed if the owner objects however that would be where their survival is nigh impossible, and only power gaming or god modding could save them. Please Put Aerenor in your application to make sure you saw this.
7. Copy Right. (Does not infringe on the rights of RPNation.com)
I do claim copy right and all that that entails on the map, the nations (that aren't made by other persons in the RP), the characters of said nations, their lore, and the stories within them. I also hold copy right to the Alven Races (7 of the 8 while the 8th is claimed by my friend.) If you wish to use the map, the races, the nations or the lore please ask me first otherwise I will be forced to take action to secure those rights that are entitled to the creators of the aforementioned items.
8. Content
This is not a XXX or NR17 or R rated RP. Take that stuff to your PMs if you wish to do that. Scenes that are not PG-13 will not be tolerated so when in doubt fade to black. All the rules of the RP Nation forums and RP threads will most certainly apply (it is there site after all :3) and I the Admin will have final say on matters dealing with internal disputes in the RP.
Thank you and if you have any questions either post them below or PM me!
