Basic Character Rules
- You can only have seven cats per account.
- Cats must be realistic, no purple pelts or red eyes.
- Clan cats must have two word names. Example: Flowerheart, Fernfur, Darkcloud.
- There is to be no godmodding and no powerplaying. Powerplaying is controlling another member's cat without permission. Example: Moonrose tackled Longclaw, biting into his neck and forcing him down. That doesn't give the other person a chance and highly unfair. Godmod is dodging every attack the other member gives and acting like your cat is all powerful.
- Cats can't live longer than 90 - 100 moons.
- No graphic breeding at all. Your cat get's a mate and you make a thread in the Mates forum and that's all. If we catch you doing anything inappropriate in a rp we will warn you, if you do not fix it we will give you a strike.
- You must follow the form to create your cat.
- You must finish your cat in five days, any longer than that the bio will be moved to the unfinished and we will inform you about it. It does not matter what kind of excuse you have for not completing it in five days. However, if you are grounded or is away for a bit you must put it in the Gossip Cafe so we all know. So if its anything like that the bio will stay in the unfinished if either you do not return and miss the activity check and is deleted, the bio will be removed. If you return but haven't finished the bio in ten days after you returned then it will be deleted.
- When you rp, you use third character only, some people don't like first character.
- You cannot jump time, jump time to several moons later, you must ask the admins about it and give a very good reason. It can be less than a moon and that's all.
- Cannot have multiple threads of the same character at the same time. Like you have your one cat doing this and have another thread with the cat doing that. If you must ask the admins.
Ranks and Challenges Rules
- You can only have two high ranked cats, high ranked cats are medicine cats, deputies, Clan leaders, and Gang leaders. You cannot have two cats of the same rank, like two Clan leaders, two deputies, etc. This does not qualify with Gang leaders though, you can have two gang leaders, but they must fit to the rules (rules for that is below).
- You can form your own gang, have your own territory. To have your own gang however you can only have one, if you want to have another gang you will have to either win at a contest that's prize is that or buy it in the shop.
- Difference to Clans in gangs, there isn't any tradition, leaders can be challenged.
- A gang challenge is where the leader of the gang and the challenger fight, the winner will be or remain the leader of the gang. To prevent from too many challenges the leader of the gang will only face two challenges per month. After the member that challenged the leader and lost cannot challenge the leader again till the next month. In a challenge there will be no killing, no crippling, and no permanent blindness, not unless the other member agrees to it.
- When the challenge fight begins the admins or the Owner will judge the fight, twenty posts and no more than that, after the twenty posts the admin that judged the fight will announce who wins. The one with the most number of wounds rated on how bad the wound is will be the loser. If by any chance both cats have the exact same amount of wound points the challenge will be announced as a tie. When announced a tie this will be an exception for another challenge in four days so the cats can recuperate from the fight and give the members time to think up a strategy.
-Scratches = 1 -Torn ear = 2 -Deep scratches = 3
- In the fight both members will have five dodging points. This means that when you get your cat to dodge you lose one dodging point. When you are out of dodging points you can no longer dodge your opponent. This is a way to prevent anyone from godmodding.
- After your first cat's first challenge the cat can challenge again but you must pm the owner or the admins a good reason why. To say that you just want to have your own gang or want to make your cat leader is not good enough. You must give a good reason like if the leader isn't leading the gang right, too absent, or making poor decisions that effect the gang's safety.
Clan Battle Rules
- Clans fighting over territory will be decided over the admins and the Clan leaders of the Clans. They happen between seasons. You must follow the Warrior Code however so no killing in these fight threads when they come, you fight until the other cat gives up the fight. After the cat has five wound points the cat must give up. At least one admin will be watching over this fight so after the cat gets to its limit the member must accept the defeat or risk getting a strike. Every cat has five dodging points, when you run out of those dodging points you cannot dodge your opponent.
- In Clan fights, instead of having it in one big thread there will be many threads to the members who want to fight, members can chose who they want to fight, and cannot choose themselves to fight each other, you can have a total of 1 on 2, 1 on
- You can have a total of 1 on 1, 1 on 2, 2 on 2, 1 on 3, 2 on 3, or 3 on 3 fights. Meaning, that your cat can face 1 to 3 opponents at once, and if you want to make it more fair you can bring in your own cats that is of the same Clan your cat is in to the battle or ask your fellow Clanmate (another member that has a cat of the same Clan) to join in. Other members can join in if they have the a Clan cat of any of the Clans that are fighting. There can be no more than three cats of both sides fighting in the same thread.
- The wound points and the dodge points do not change through the numbers of the battle.
- This territory battle will be time due and the date will be posted, when that happens time is up and your battle isn't done the admin who has watched over the fight will decide on how many wounds the cat has. The cat with the most wound points loses, if they are tied the battle will be announced a tie.
- In these threads there is no limit to posting like in the Challenge.
- If you want your cat to die, you must talk it over with the other member who will be fighting you. Once you two agree inform the admins or the owner about it so they know.
- In a Clan territory battle the Clan leaders of the Clans in battle must fight. The winner of the territory will be decided on how many wins and losses the Clan has. Like after the due date has been met and the admins have finished their judgments and posted those at the end of each thread, the Clan with the most wins gets the territory.
- When a different Clan beats it's opponent Clan and wins the territory the forum of where the battle has occurred will be moved to the other winning Clan's territory.
- The losing Clan may be aloud to take that territory back after two weeks and asking the Owner or the admin's permission. The Clan leader of the other Clan will be notified of this and will be given the choice to defend or ignore. After that another Clan battle will occur with a new due date. When that is done there will be no more permissions to steal.
Attack Rules
- Staff will pm members time to time, members that are involved with threads in dangerous areas like the junkyard or the neighborhood. They will ask for your permission.
- If permission granted the staff cannot kill the characters unless the owner of that cat wants it to die.
- In Clans when the stat says fox in which Clan's territory the staff has to still ask for permission to attack a member's cat. The Clan leader or deputy would most likely make a patrol before then, when that happens a staff must be in that thread rping that threat. Again the staff cannot kill any cat in that patrol unless the owner of that cat wants it dead.
- Members can even ask for the staff for it as well.
Claim Territory Rules
- To claim a forum that hasn't been claimed you must make a ic thread claim post of 300 words or more.
- The post must be edited and well described.
- If less than 300 words and has bad grammar, etc. A admin will post in that thread, putting denied. You will be given five days to fix anything that is wrong that the post the admin gave will be listed. If not fixed in five days the claim will be removed.
- Once the claim is accepted, the forum will be yours. However, do not think that after you have successfully claimed it as your gang's territory another gang will be allowed to try steal it.
- When you have a forum into your territory you have a week with no steal attempts, after that week other gangs can try and steal it.
- To steal another gang's forum you must tell the admins or the Owner about this. The member that owns this forum will be notified before this happens but has no right to prevent the steal. The owner of that forum can either defend his or her forum by ic battle rp or the owner can ignore which is an automatic defeat which gives the stealer the full right to claim that forum. However, that stealer must to a claim thread within that forum, stating he or she is marking the territory, exactly like a normal claim thread.
- In Battle claiming the ways of battling will be judged on how big the gangs are. Like if the gangs have about five or six cats, it will be a one three threads fights. If the gangs are really small, three cats in both gangs, it will be a one thread. If large like a Clan the battle will occur in multiple threads. Same with winning, it will be judged on how many wins one gang has. The due dates on these will be done by how large the gang will be, really small, will be judged in a week, regular will be for two weeks, and in a large one will be done in a specific date the two leaders agree on unlike Clan battles.
- In any kind of battle, if its a loner or rouge fight, challenge, Clan Battle or Battle Claim I expect all members to be happy win or lose. If you show a fit about it and ignore our warnings you will be given a strike. So don't be a sore loser about losing, no one likes someone like that and we don't need that.
- You can only claim up five forums, if you want more talk to the admin. Beware though, you have to stay active with the lands you have and with the more boards you have the more cats you will need, like to have one forum you need about one or two cats, to a second forum about four cats, etc. The most limit you can have is up to seven forums.
- You can only claim forms near your forums, in the main forums it needs to be beside the main forum you have in order to try claiming forums there. You cannot claim any forums that is several forums away from the form you majorly in.
- You can rp in an unclaimed forum like its a freeland forum. However, once that land is claimed, you can no longer rp in it as if its free, you would be trespassing the gang's territory.
NPC Rules
- Follow the form
- Must be part of your character, like a littermate, or parent that is alive.
- Anyone can use a npc as long as they belong to the same Clan or gang.
- When you make an npc that character is everyone's fair game. No one truly rps that character however.
- No one can make this a full character but the one who has made the npc, that person alone can decide to do a full bio for it. Once that is done it is no longer a npc so no one can use it during their threads.
- If you had run out of muse for your character but don't want to let it die or put it for adoption, you can make it a npc. You must keep the full bio of that character somewhere in case you ever want to make it into a full character again. This doesn't qualify for leaders, medicine cats, and deputies. If you run out of muse for that character, kill them or ask someone to adopt it right away, no putting it to the adoption board since the cat has a high rank. This also qualifies for gang leaders or any high ranks that the gang leader has, but that is strictly to the person who owns the gang.
- You must have at least one real character before making npc characters.
Gathering Rules
- Gatherings are up every two weeks, but won't actually make those gathering threads every second week unless important or has any interests. Such as new warriors, new apprentices, new deputies, medicine cats or even Clan leaders. Also anything that is important to share with the other Clans.
- In gatherings, players can have multiple threads at the time as well as the main one. The main gathering thread is strictly to the Clan leaders, so only the members who have Clan leaders can post in it. In that thread the leaders will do their reports or discussions. Members who have joined in with the gathering must remain updated to it, so actually read the thread.
- The Gathering is over when that main thread is finished, anyone who is not done their own thread has to suck it up and just use your imagination on how to fix that gap. If you are almost done your thread, then finish it up quickly then tell someone so they can move it to the archives.
- No member can join it when they want to, its the Clan leader that decide which cats that go. The cats that the owner of the Clan leader chose to go are the members (owners of those cats) can rp in the Gathering. If you really want to be a part of it, ask the owner of the Clan leader.
- Clan leaders must post up a list of who's going, pick about three or four cats, deputies and medicine cats are a must. You can choose about three npc characters to come as well.
- Medicine cat gatherings are a bit the same. We don't need to have them up every week after a Clan Gathering. It will come up if its something important or interesting.
- However, since there aren't that many cats in this type of gathering it can stick to one thread. You get to use your imagination when in dreams. StarClan cats must actually be dead cats, not npc either. However, don't do prophecies or anything big, ask the admins if it will be okay. On the small stuff you can use your brain, like StarClan giving you advise on where the best herbs are that you need.
