ROLE-PLAYING RULES
CHARACTER RULES
1.) The word count minimum is 300 words. If you cannot make your role-play post to be 300 words then don't post until you can. This is an advanced role-play, and 300 words is a strong minimum. Anyone who does not make it to 300 words and posts anyways, unless they say in the post that they aren't done, will receive a warning.
2.) You may post with as many characters as you want in one thread, but be sure that people know which character you are posting with at any point in the post. One way to do this is to color-code each different character, but only if the colors fit in with the skin. You do not have to do this.
3.) All posts are required to be in third person point of view. For example, "she went to the great sycamore" instead of "i went to the great sycamore." That way it will be easier for other members to know who you are role-playing.
4.) You may not double post at any time during a thread. If you would like to add something to your thread, modify it, do not post again. On top of that, if you are caught double posting then one, or both of your posts will be deleted.
CHARACTER RULES
1.) You may have as many characters as you like, however, you must keep them all active. If an admin sees that one of your characters has fallen inactive then they will be deleted and we may refuse you acceptance of any new cats you create.
2.) You may only have one high position on this site. Anyone who tries out for more than one high position will not get that position no matter how good the bio is. High positions include leaders, deputies, medicine cats, and medicine cat apprentices. Once your high position dies you may feel free to tryout for another one.
3.) Your cat names must be traditional. See Name Guidance for more details on what names you can/cannot take. Any names such as "Batteryacid" or "Blanketfut" will not be allowed on this site. Any names that include a loner misspelling with also not be allowed.
4.) You cannot play any rogues/loners/kittypets on this site. This is a warriors role-play, so only warriors will be played. Your warrior also cannot have been born as a rogue/loner/kittypet before becoming a clan cat, and it cannot have rogue/loner/kittypet parents. It can be half-clan.
5.) Your cat must have a realistic appearance/personality. It cannot have 'markings from StarClan', or 'red eyes' or 'purple fur'. It will be a real cat or it won't be approved. A warrior does not have a totally evil or totally angel personality. They are not 'perfectly evil' or 'perfectly good'. Every cat has their flaws.
6.) Your cat may not have a sob-story background. Sob-stories are when your cat has such a depressingly horrible background that it just so piteous and horrible and makes everyone depressed... No, that's just stupid and attention-seeking. Sob-stories are not allowed, whatsoever.
7.) No gary-sues, mary-sues, 'perfects', or 'greatest' are allowed here. Your cat will have flaws, and they will have realistic flaws too. No "she is the best hunter and can feed the entire clan by herself," or "all the leaders come to speak with him because he's so wise and intelligence and great". That's just ignorant.
