Totally human, I swear!
This roleplay is meant to portray a broad range of characters and a bleak yet fantastical setting. The views and actions of the characters are fictional, but may be based on real-world ideologies and events which could be considered disturbing. It is not meant to be an exact representation of anything that has happened in the real world. Please be responsive to the limits expressed by your fellow roleplayers, and do not be afraid to express your own limits.
- If you don't know what something means, ask for clarification. Likewise, when asked for clarification, answer to the best of your abilities.
- Hostility on our side of the fourth wall is needless. Naturally, there will be in-character conflict, but do not take it to heart. Likewise, be as respectful as you can to your fellow roleplayers. Things should be worked out in a civil fashion should OOC conflict arise.
- Insensitive language belongs to insensitive characters. Ableist, racist, ageist, sexist, or otherwise expressly prejudiced language is prohibited from third person narrations and descriptions. If you use it by accident, or if it's something that doesn't have connotations that are too bad, it can be excused, since many people don't know any better ways to phrase things. I won't hold it against you as long as I know it's an honest mistake, but I will probably ask you to change it.
- Differences in style or creative ability are welcome here. Write script style, novel style, or anything outside and in between; Be as loquacious or laconic as you please.
- When interacting with others, whether in or out of character, make sure that they are comfortable with what you or your character will do. A rule of thumb is to ask for the other roleplayer/s permission before your character does something not PG-rated to another character. A warning is not enough. Consent is key.
- You may not control another person's character, or make big changes to them without the consent of the roleplayer that made them.
- You may contribute your ideas for plots, lore, and other stuff, but please run it by me first.
- You may make as many characters as you want, but it is recommended to make more than one.
- If you make more than one character, diversify the roles among them as best as you can. You can have more than one character in the same position, but you also have to have another character in another position.
- You must give your characters a relatively probable age,unless you have a good explanation.
- Your character's primary trait should not be their sexuality or shipping potential.
- Do not rp as a canon character from any media whatsoever, even an altered version.
- Do not roleplay as a recognizable real-life person, even an alternate version of them. If you want to rp a character who fills a real-life role such as the leader of a real country, make up a fictional character to replace them in-rp.
- You may use any medium to convey your character's appearance.
- There is no deadline for character creation.
- Please be patient with delays, as they may come due to unforeseen circumstances and last longer than intended.
- Let everyone know if you are permanently dropping out of the rp.
- Please stay with this roleplay as long as you can, and do not permanently leave while your character is interacting with somebody else's.
- If you have any other questions, feel free to ask and I'll answer when I can, and update the rules if need be. No worries, I'll let everybody know when the rules are updated, and the amendments will appear both in this post and in an additional one
