Realm Rules
1) All SOI rules apply
2) Characters should be posted on the character claims cork before coming out into play.
3) Respect is earned, courtesy is not. Be polite to each other and to each other’s play or get out. That whole adage of "If you don't have something to nice, don't say anything at all." applies. If you drag ooc drama into the realm or the cork, not only will the post be deleted, the character handle that put it up will be banned from the realm for no less than 30 days. No exceptions.
4) Until further notice there are no personal residences that will be placed on the realm list. Let’s try to keep play to communal rooms for the betterment of the realm, its inhabitants, and play in general. No this doesn’t mean that your character can’t have personal residences merely that they will not be promoted as locations for play.
5) The Clave, Angels and Greater Demons are not allowed as a PC.
Nor do human ‘witches’. No exceptions.
6) No force postings.
7) Each race has faction specific rules/guidelines.
Here is a quick list but please take the time to read over the section of your respected playing faction.
- Thank you.
Warlocks: Yes you can summon demons but we should probably make it clear that
1) they can kill you, and
2) Any pacts/deals come at a price.
Whenever a warlock makes the choice to summon a demon they must roll 1d10.
The results of the roll equal the results of the summoning:
-1- is death. This is why we suggest that all summoning spells are done top notch because if you are going to go down, don’t you want to go down with a bang?
-2,3,4,5- is a success where the point of the summoning ends on a good note.
Congratulations, this is success and everything is going according to plan.
-6,7,8,9- is a success where the point of the summoning ends on a bad note. You may have succeeded but things are not going according to plan and may even be to your detriment.
-0- is epic fail. Not only did you succeed at raising the demon but it broke free and has gotten away somehow. Nothing is going according to plan. Way to be *that* guy.
8) Fight Rules are quick and painless. Battles will be p4p (post for post). Defender calls damage. Player determines character death (Within reason. If you take the car bomb hit, you can't justwalk away, ya dolt). And it's okay to lose. Everyone wants to be the hero, but the hero has to get the shit beaten out of them before they win. Remember that. The more you bleed, the more likely you are to succeed.
9) There is a mentor list in effect for a reason. It is encouraged that if you have any questions or concerns that you contact someone on that list for clarification or even assistance with building a character. But when it comes to playing… In the words of our buddy Morpheus “I can only show you the door. Only you can open it.”
10) Use common sense and for god sake have fucking fun.
