Role Playing is easy, just act and speak as your character would. There aren't many ways to get kicked from this Community unless you frequently break RP Guidelines. You must stay in character at all times and follow all ROE (Rules of Engagement).
Staying in Character:
Since we are a role-play guild it is important that we stay in character as often as possible. In character means you talk to people in the correct manner for your character. This may vary for each individual since not everyone views their character the same way but there are some basic guidelines that everyone should follow.
For example the use of abbreviations like lol, rofl, and ty instead of using those you should always either use emotes * laughs * or just type it all out “thank you”. Now for those that don’t know, an emote is an action that your character is doing such as laughing, crying, chuckling, or smirking and it should in no way dictate what someone else’s character is doing.
Grammar:
Sleeping = AFK
Mud = Lag
Pigeon = Out of game message (IRC, Forum, etc.)
Banner = Party
The Gods = the GMs or the developers
PvP in the Role-play community
- 15-minute death robe timer: Whenever you die in a role-play battle you should try to get to your body as soon as possible retrieve your belongings then leave the battle. During the time before you leave the battle you're required to wear a death robe and to try to stay out of the area. This is to prevent rez killing and confusion.
- Must be mutually agreed on: In all fights both sides must be up for the challenge this is why some dialog is required to at least make sure the other person is at their computer.
- Looting: We do allow looting and we will loot in RP battles. This is to show an effect of war, war is not cheap.
- No out of character trash talking: Any insults should be made in character for example “You suxxors newb” would not be acceptable but “You couldn’t even kill a mongbat, scum” would be fine. If you’re ever in doubt just don’t say it.
- No recalling or gating directly into a battle zone: You should never recall or gate into an active battle zone or territory we do not control.*
- No Spell Restrictions (As of right now)
- Tamers can be used but no more then 3 bears, dire wolves, wolves at best. So no dragons, nightmares, etc.
- Bardic skills can be used if there is a monster in the area it can be controlled to attack a pvper
Out of RP PVP, such as random Pkers, is purely survivor while speech should still remain in character. There will never be a restriction on skill, spell or strategy
*In accordance with Guild Guidelines one should avoid recalling or gating into any city (NPC and PC cities). Also avoid riding your horse everywhere in the buildings.
