General Rules
1) Respect: Respect is what brings roleplayers together. Through respecting each other, we can all get along and each person would be more focused on the roleplaying rather than all the fights that spring forth from disrespect. For this, please respect all roleplayers alike. If you feel like you have a problem with someone, please do not hesitate to PM a member of the staff.
2) Spamming: Randomly posting threads in as many boards as possible, or hijacking a thread for no reason is not tolerated. If you wish to increase your post count then roleplay not only would you have fun, but when you get involved in threads and storylines, your post count will go up.
3) There will be a limit after registration. If there is no application put up (even if it's a WIP) after a stretch of 2 weeks time then your account will be deleted. It just isn't fair for people who could have it up and it's not fair for the staff keeping them waiting. However if you PM a staff member, then it will be fine.
4) Display Name: Your display name should reflect your character name. This being so that there would be less confusion when roleplaying. If you have a nick name you could put it in your display name as brackets (if it fits). If not then you could always have it in your signature or just below your avatar.
5) Graphics should be no more than 500x250 and a bit of text. In other words your signature should be no more than 600x300. We also would appreciate it if you didn't have a lot of animations for we wouldn't want to give someone a stroke.
In Character Rules
1) Godmodding/Bunnying: We all want our characters to be the best; it’s human nature. However, that does not mean that godmodding and bunnying will be tolerated. You control your character and everyone else controls theirs. If you feel like someone is godmodding, but you’re not sure if he/she really is then please PM a member of the staff or try to deal with this person through PM’s.
2) Killing Characters: You are absolutely not allowed to kill someone else’s character without their permission. Even if a person gives you permission, you are required to PM a staff member (preferably an admin) to let them know what it is you plan to do. However, under no circumstances are you allowed to kill a main canon leader.
3) Mary-Sues/Gary Stu’s are a big no. We are firm believers that characters are not all perfect. Your character has to have flaws and has to have faults. Of course everyone has strong points, but weaknesses should be included as to balance our character. Besides, it’s not fun to roleplay with a person who’s all perfect.
4) Gore is fine! Don't worry about how gory you can make it. However, sexual encounters should be implied or continued in PRIVATE MESSAGES! Some of the people may be younger. Also, please refrain from overusing curse words.
5) Stay relevant to the time frame. This site is based on the Warring States period of Japan, so weapons, armor and even some character morals should follow that.
