OBSIDIAN BONE'S RULES
General:
- Respect. A general consensus here is it not? Respect staff for they have authority and what staff says goes. Remember the golden rule from elementary school; treat those who you would want to be treated. Respect all members equally and we will share the same concept.
- Staff withholds the power to ban or warn you for any means necessary. By joining this site you agree to follow all rules and regulations without question.
- If you are going to be absent for a long period of time for any reason what so ever please we would appreciate it if you posted on the going away board of the site. We don’t need the whole details just that you’ll be going away so we don’t delete your account due to inactivity.
In Character:
[/size]- You may have as many characters as you wish so long as you can keep them active. They are to remain on their own accounts.
- When making your character, try to make them interesting and fluid. They have emotions, dialog and quirks. No single character is immortal or all powerful.
In Role play:
[/size]- Your posts must be a minimum of 3 strong paragraphs. This means at least 10 sentences per paragraph.
- There is a strict BAN on god moding, power playing and meta gaming. Your character is NOT all powerful. You’re character has in no way any control over another person’s character and if you plot something out OOCly your character has no idea of its concept ICly. Keep it realistic to the point of not understanding or knowing everything that comes into play against your wolf.
Fighting:
- There are no auto hits what so ever, which are actually considered power playing and thus not allowed.
- You are not required to get a staff member’s permission to fight unless it is over an alpha position or land. If this is the case the staff will judge the fight.
- There is no time limit or hit limit, however your character can not dodge nor hit every single time. Give a chance for your opponent to do damage or fight back.
Mating/Birthing:
- The staff members will decided whether or not your mating was successful. They will pick the number of and genders of your pups/babies as well as defects or lack thereof.
- If your wolf is in a pack make sure you have specific permission from the alpha to mate. If you are alpha you are allowed to mate without permission from anyone.
- Wolf pups will be created by the Puppy God. This means their color/design and genders as well as any species related traits.
- Human babies will be chosen by the staff. This means hair/eye color and any other traits.
- Gestation period for females is One week. Meaning, you cannot mate and then get pregnant in the next post and be ready to pop. You must wait one real life week before giving birth. You must post on the Baby board if you are expecting and Staff and/or The Pupping God will fill it out.
Accounts:
- Ok so on this site you NEED to have separate accounts for all of your wolves and/or humans. It makes it so MUCH easier for staff to get things organized. So please when you register use your character's name or edit it to your character's name.
- Please do not put any special characters in your name. No !@#$^* etc. Just your character's name, nice and simple. Oh and PLEASE capitalize the name.
- Staff will have a separate staff account that will show in all CAPS. Then they will have separate accounts for their other characters.
Creating a Character:
- When making your human/shifter/wolf please make sure to fill out everything as best as you can, if you can do more then that is wonderful but please at least do what is needed to be accepted
- You have a week to fill out your bio and get it ready for a staff to accepted it. If it is not done in a week (and you haven't notified a staff member why it isn't done) your bio will be moved to the archives.
- ALWAYS check on the ranking's of packs when signing up for one, Also if applying for a certain position please make sure you follow the form on the pack's hierarchy and that you are accepted by the alpha before your bio is accepted.
Money System:
- The money here is called Velknar.
- 5 Velknar will be earned for each post made. Once in a while it may be earned through contests.
- Referring a new member will earn the current member 50 Velknar, added to whichever account they choose if there is more then one.
- Velknar are given to whichever account is being used, and may only be used for such account. You can not combine Velknar from two separate accounts.
- You are allowed to gift another member Velknar, or buy an item from the shop and gift it to another member.
Extra rules:
[/center][/b]- Now if you have, lets say, 5 characters thus meaning you have 5 accounts. You MUST get a minimum of 25 IC posts in order to be able to create a new character. This way it keeps the number reasonable.
- There will be a mandatory pack meeting at least once a month to make sure people are actually participating in the pack. If they do not show they are kicked from the pack and become loners.
- Hybrid wolves have a cap there will be only so many allowed here and you must first gain permission from the staff to create one of these.
- These rules are © to Dash with given permission to Axers to use them to her heart’s content on any site she desires. If anyone has any disagreements they may take them up with me.
- Rules are subject to change at any given time or moment so make sure to check back often.
- Most important rule on the site! Have fun! This site was created for amusement and entertainment purposes and we would appreciate it greatly if you would have fun!
