(( general ))

There is a 300 word count minimum to your role-play posts. This is a literate rp board, also it is good to have a lot posted, because it gives the person you're rping with something to work with on their reply back.
NOTE: I have a word count box on the bottom of every webpage for you to use.

Keep it PG-13, I want to keep this a welcoming place for everyone. Also it is a requirement of the TOS.

Seasons follow in normal time, simple, yes?

One Account Per Person, everyone should have just one account where they will keep all of their characters.

Give credit where credit is due, if the image is from DA, flickr, tumblr, etc.. credit them! I don't want to be hassled by someone complaining that their artwork was stolen.

No god-modding or power-playing, standard rules apply, no one likes this.

When you finish a thread with someone PLEASE PM either me or one of the staffers (Nil or Irish). This is the ensure that all finished threads are closed and moved to archives, this decreases clutter on the site, and makes reading completed threads for "of the month" competitions easier.

Post in the order that you enter the thread, this insures order, and prevents someone from being left behind. This isn't a die hard rule, but is something nice to go by.

Your character application must be accepted before you can role-play as that character, makes a ton of sense, right?

Please don't join an established thread without asking permission from the people of that thread, it keeps order to the chaos.

Please have your characters name in your rp posts! This is so people know what character they are rping with. You can do this with either a table or just their name at the top of the post.

Please Respect the staff and the members! This is standard on all role plays. Respect other's opinions and views. Don't pester them about posting, you may gently remind them if they haven't responded for over a week. Don't make fun of, mock, or intentionally hurt someone's feelings. These are simple, common sense rules, yes?





(( characters ))

There is no limit to how many characters that you can create, so long as you can keep up with them.

Once your character's application is accepted it is automatically accepted into the pride. I've had a lot of questions about this, but once I accept your character's profile you are a member of that Pride. It is up to your character history how long they have been in the pride.

Strays may join a Pride, and Pride members may switch to another Pride, they just have to have an "in character thread," where the character switches sides.

Only domesticated cats may be made as characters for this site, I will allow wild cats such as bobcats and lynxes to be won in contests, bought in the site store, or given as a prize to the "of the month" winners.
NOTE: Though the Savannah cat is part wild, I will consider it domestic because it is legal to own (in most states).

Albino characters must be bought at the site shop. Just a little incentive to buying at the shop.

No perfect characters, it's just annoying to have perfect characters wondering around. Let your character be fleshed out and to have flaws.

The leader ranks must be applied for, all other ranks does not have to go through this step.

To apply to be a leader I have a "leader try-out" section in the character app form, just fill that out with the reason why that character will be a good leader. When your character is accepted, it is also automatically accepted as a leader. Simple?

Keep your character realistic. No 100 year old cats with crazy abilities.

You can't join as a pregnant female, I have a baby form to fill out with stats of the mother and father of the kittens should you choose to have kittens -- so joining as a pregnant female doesn't make much sense.

You may create a slave or prisoner character. If you want to have a character that is a prisoner or slave, you can create one and come in as that. You don't have to create a normal character and wait for someone to steal you.

You are only allowed one leader character. This is to give everyone a fair shot at being a leader.

All sexualities are allowed. Pretty straight forward.




(( challenges ))


Characters may challenge for entry into a pride, a higher rank, and land. When you want to challenge for something, create a thread with the word "challenge" in the title and be sure to let the leader of the pride whom you're challenging knows that you are challenging them either through PM or and OOC post.

You need at least 15 posts to challenge, this is to keep people from joining and challenging willy-nilly.

You may kidnap a character from another pride. I will have a board just for kidnapping, so if you want to kidnap a character for interrogation create a thread there. More specific kidnapping rules can be found in the "Important Events" thread.

You need at least 15 posts to kidnap, this is the same reason as with the challenging rule.

You may only kidnap a Pride leader if they have a second in command. This is pretty simple, I don't want to leave a pride without a leader when they don't have anyone to fill their place.




(( reproduction ))

There is no breeding season, though you must think things through -- birthing a litter in the winter would have a less chance to survive that a litter in the warmer months.

Birthing takes place after 2 real-life weeks has passed, it's better than waiting months.

If you want a child, post in the right board, I will have a board just for people who want to mother/father kittens -- post in that board to get started in birthing kittens. The baby form can be found may be found in the "Important Events" board.

Child stats will be posted by staff, stats will include litter size, appearance and health. Personality will be up to the person adopting the kitten. If you do not like the stats you can buy or win the right to change them.
