 Role-Play Rules

-Before you can role-play, you must first submit a character biography. You will follow the form that's provided for you in the designated board. Unless the form you submitted is for a Major Rank (i.e. Leader, Deputy, Chiefs, Medicine Cat), you may start role-playing right away. But please check your form frequently after you submit. If I find anything wrong with it I'm bound to reply and you'll be expected to fix it. If you do submit for a major ranking role, please wait until I confirm your biography.

-Please do not submit any more than 10 characters. Each individual person may not have anymore than three high ranks, and each of those must be in different Clans.

-Use realistic pelt and eyes colors, as well as 'realistic' warrior names. No "Dragonheart" and the like.

-Please try to have realistic backgrounds. Most cats in a Clan should have been born in a Clan.

-Kittypets and twolegs are unheard of, existing only in myths and legends.

-Only medicine cats may have "signs" from StarClan, but please do not throw these around casually. Unless it's a site-wide plot, I would appreciate it if you asked me before doing a "sign"

-If you submit a form for a major ranking character, I have the right to deny your submission should I feel that the character you submitted wouldn't fit for such a role. Or if I feel your role-playing style isn't mature enough for the role. A leader may also deny you a lesser high rank if he/she feels you aren't suitable.

-No PowerPlaying(PP), or GodModing(GMing). To GodMod is to predict and react to another character's move in a single post. This is fine if the character belongs to you, but not to anyone else. PowerPlaying is when you role-play someone else's character, usually in a minor, off-handed way. This rule usually applies most strictly when it comes to rp battle with an opponent. GMing/PPing in casual, light-hearted role-play isn't often taken into consideration unless someone protests to it or it proves to be a disadvantage in some way.

-Please do not take anything personal that happens while role-playing! These are all made up characters created for you to have fun and broaden your horizons with creative writing practice. If you are angry with someone in OOC, you should never get angry at them in your role-playing mode. If you see anyone who you think is unfairly taking things out of context, please message me.

-You may not kill someone else's character without their permission first unless it was planned. However, there can be a few exceptions I will allow provided the situation calls for it, such as a person willingly putting their character into a dangerous situation and refusing to be realistic about killing said character off.

-Almost all the warriors on here are expected to act like the dutiful warriors they are in the books. That is, your characters shouldn't be having out-of-clan relationships, switching clans or disobeying the warrior code. Special circumstances may apply if you PM me. I promise I don't bite :) Remember that the leader's word is law, no matter how unfair it may be.

The first suggestion is already in place in the General Rules, Maple, and I may add your second suggestion if it becomes an issue. :)
