==The Prophecy and Creed==
Founding Visions, nothing crazy


==Confessions of Melennar==
Elf tolerance


==OOC/IC Presence & Nicknames==
==Conclave of Alstyr==
*When a player is online but does not wish to roleplay, they are considered "Out of Character".
50 AC
*A player is only allowed to be present "Out of Character" in a roleplay scene if every player present consents to this action.
Wearden of Eirlys
*A player must have their Nickname set to their character's name or title in order to be considered present in roleplay, and cannot proclaim they are only there Out of Character if their Nickname is set to their roleplay name.
::'''First Offense:''' Counseling from lore staff about setting nicknames properly.
::'''Second Offense:''' Warning
::'''Third Offense:''' Light tempjail or light tempban.


==Minecraft Mechanics==
==Evintarian Schism==
Minecraft is a great game to roleplay on. However, there are some inherent weaknesses in this game that can complicate roleplay. Here are a couple of examples:
67 AC
*'''Hearing Through Walls:''' You cannot hear through walls, windows, closed doors, or other IG barriers the vast majority of times. However, if both parties consent to your character hearing them through any of the above for whatever reason, then it may occur.
creation is flawed, evolve to greatness
::'''First Offense:''' Warning.
::'''Second Offense:''' Mute between 1-12 hours, depending on the severity of the offense.
::'''Third Offense:''' Light tempjail or light tempban.
*'''Long Drops:''' Minecraft allows you to survive long falls without death. But in roleplay, if you fall off a two-story building, the best case scenario is a broken leg, unless a character has an ability that allows them to survive long falls.
::'''First Offense:''' Warning.
::'''Second Offense:''' Mute between 1-12 hours, depending on the severity of the offense.
::'''Third Offense:''' Light tempjail or light tempban.
*'''Time:''' Time isn’t strictly enforced in roleplay, but instead dictated per scene. If someone says “Good morning!” they’ve established that, for now, it’s morning time. Time progresses at the same rate as time in real life (seconds, minutes, hours, etc. all the same speed). The exception to this is prison sentences, which follow Minecraft time mechanics. A three-day prison sentence will last an hour in real life because three Minecraft days is an hour. It is worth noting a prisoner can only be forced to remain in a cell without Guards providing rp for a maximum of 15 minutes.


==God Roleplay==
==Clastic Law==
God Roleplay, GodRP, or Godmoding have summarized terms for a character being overpowered, invincible, unrealistically fearless, or godly. These characters have very few flaws and are undefeatable.
Schisms may worship in their own temples and be protected, but cannot be missionaries.
::'''First Offense:''' Warning and staff counseling in some scenarios.
::'''Second Offense:''' Mute between 1-12 hours, depending on the severity of the offense.
::'''Third Offense:''' Light tempjail or light tempban.


==PowerGaming==
==Diviner Heresy==
Powergaming, powerplaying, or puppeteering often falls hand-in-hand with GodRP. Powergaming is when you dictate the actions or outcomes of another person’s character. The word ‘attempt’ is a golden word in scenarios where powergaming might become problematic, such as combat roleplay.
Yeah let's sacrifice people and get high to talk to the Everwatcher
*You are not permitted to control someone else's character’s actions.
what are these freaks doing in the woods? eh, probably nothing
::'''First Offense:''' Warning.
::'''Second Offense:''' Mute between 1-12 hours, depending on the severity of the offense.
::'''Third Offense:''' Light tempjail or light tempban.


==Mary-Suism==
==Dogartan Schism==
A Mary-Sue or Gary-Stu is a character that is absolutely perfect. Successful love life, excellent work ethic, fabulous looks, incredible intelligence are all things that can contribute to Mary-Sues if they’re laid on too heavily.
166 AC
*Special snowflake features, like albinism, that dictate large parts of a character’s importance. Note: While heterochromia is no longer illegal, it is still frowned upon in some cases.
Reject Money Embrace Piety
*Suggesting that a character was once royalty/nobility/godly, or that their family line currently is (unless, of course, the character actually ''is'' nobility). Long, forgotten empires count in this, as well as currently existing empires.
Who needs hierarchy anyways?
*Characters that consistently play the victim, don’t learn from consequences that constantly get them in life-threatening situations, or get hurt for the sake of getting hurt, are often Mary-Sues.
*Dramatic or dismal backstories that dictate major parts of the character (always bringing it up, using it for attention) turns a developed character into a Mary-Sue.
*Characters that are heavily based on you as the roleplayer, are often Mary-Sues.
::'''Offense:''' Light counseling from lore staff.


==Character Death: Maim & Kill Permissions==
==Vultragon Schism==
MassiveCraft has a set of rules to protect from random deathmatching, and unfair death forced onto others. Character Death is usually a right reserved for the owner of the Original Character, yet there are some rules in effect where this right is given away, for the sake of fairness and equal playing field. As soon as a conflict arises about Maim and Kill Rules, both sides must contact Lore Staff via Ticket to mediate.
Thinking is good. Question everything, even God
Also Dragonblood


*'''Maim Perm:''' Maim Perm means inflicting damage on another character that would permanently disable them in some way. Character Aesthetics or soft tissue that serves no function (like the nose or ear) or skin of a character being damaged is not a Maim.
===Purge of Vultaro===
*'''Kill Perm:''' Kill Perm means inflicting damage on another character that would result in the character’s eventual demise either directly or indirectly (through for example either stabbing or poison). Kill Perm as such strictly means the right to murder another character.
Fire, so much fire
*'''Given Consent:''' Given Consent is the strictly written permission to kill a character. When you have been Given Consent by another player, it means they have indicated you are allowed to either Maim or Kill their character. Keep in mind, Given Consent is only valid while logs (or screenshots of in-game chat) can be proven. Discord logs and outdated conversations are not proof. Given Consent is not perpetual, and can expire. In a dispute, contact Lore Staff.
Also, let's get rid of the Diviners as well, Herebrands, you know what to do.
*'''Surrendered Consent:''' Surrendered Consent is similar to Given Consent, except that it’s an automatic response to character actions. To Surrender Consent is to allow other characters to Maim or Kill a Character in response to their actions. This may be voluntary or involuntary, depending on the situation. Surrendering Consent does not require your approval. If any problems occur because of this, please ask a Lore Staff member to mediate.
*'''Mental Anguish:''' Mental Anguish is when a character is forced to suffer or engage in an action that you, out of an OOC stand point of view, find distressing. For example, if you yourself are a survivor of Leukemia, hair removal may be viewed as distressing and ruining your experience. If such a case is occurring you must always contact a Rank3 Lore Staff member, and you cannot appeal to any sort of exception without their approval.
*'''Maim Exceptions:''' Any Characters with body regeneration [[Abilities]] or any such limb-regeneration powers have no such thing as a Maim Perm. All body parts of any of these characters can regrow, so any kind of damage is non-permanent.
*'''Godly Being Exceptions:''' When interacting with a Dragon, Arken, Void/Exist God, Unspoken God, Emperors, and other quasi-divine deities when portrayed by a staff member, within common sense reason in the context of their interactions, and with the player being OOCly aware with what they are interacting with, there is the potential for Surrendered Kill & Maim Permissions. These surrendered permissions apply when the character acts flippantly in the face of beings that should be afforded some degree of In-Character reverence, or at the very least fear.
*'''Guard Exceptions:''' Regalian Guards have special rules concerning the Killing and Maiming of Characters. Principally speaking, they are as such exempt from needing Consent in any way or form, but they are also internally regulated for when they can and cannot take a character’s life or arm by Lore Staff. If you want to read more, please consult the [[Crime Rules]]. Be aware however that even though the Guards are constrained by these Law Rules, there remains a provision for Guards to execute characters who "inflict excessive and overbearing harm, law violations, or violently resisting arrest", under approval of the Lord Commander and Lore Staff.
*'''Mutated Character Exceptions:''' If your character is excessively mutated to the point that (in the review of Staff) they are nearly or exactly indistinguishable from for example Void Monsters, that Guards (of either Regalia proper, or any of the Boroughs like New Crookback) can request Lore Staff Rank 3 for permission to have Character-Kill Permissions.


'''You should generally seek to avoid killing another player’s character if there are other options available to you and them (and there always are). Consult the player(s) or Lore Staff in question to discuss alternative options. Generally speaking, the community does not look kindly on those who simply kill off characters for smaller reasons, or do not give second chances.'''
==Guided Unionism==
Council of Hartenland
Dogartans: hey, these Vultarins aren't that bad, and they got a point.
Duo-Gods
most Ivraes kinda suck ngl, Dragonbloods are so much better


==Void/Retcon==
==Mending the SChisms==
Voiding or retconning describes the act of undoing roleplay for the sake of “starting over.”
Golden Salience: Dogmatic reactionaries sabotaged efforts
*You are not permitted to force a retcon on people who are unwilling.
Silver Salience: actually fixes things a few years later
*You may only undo a roleplay experience if everyone who participated agrees.
*Guard roleplay can never be retconned.
*RP staff have the right to force a retcon onto players if they deem is necessary when two parties cannot agree on an outcome.
::'''First Offense:''' Light tempjail and counseling from lore staff about the implications of ignoring guard roleplay.
 
==Other Courtesies==
There are a couple of other smaller courtesies that do not fall under any of the previous regulations. Here is a list of them:
*Avoid OOC talking in public and busy areas. MassiveCraft offers a PM feature.
::'''First Offense:''' Warning.
::'''Second Offense:''' Light tempmute.
*Avoid shouting and screaming in Regalia unless absolutely necessary. Also, avoid screaming during RP events.
::'''First Offense:''' Warning.
::'''Second Offense:''' Light tempmute.
*Respect Guard RP and avoid combat in so-called “non-combat zones.” These will always be marked with a chat warning when you enter them.
::'''First Offense:''' Warning.
::'''Second Offense:''' Light tempmute.
*Do not use More Player Models/MPM to become a mob or to mutate your skin beyond the bounds of lore if you're in Regalia.
::'''First Offense:''' Warning.
::'''Second Offense:''' Tempjail until offensive model is remedied.
*Avoid disrupting roleplay through any manner, be it either OOC, IC or trolling.
::'''First Offense:''' Warning.
::'''Second Offense:''' Light tempjail.
 
==Additional Punishments==
Punishments for all of the above are listed under each circumstance. Additionally, the following punishments can occur, which can be appealed on the forums or with a member of lore staff:
*Being barred from having special permissions.
*Being banned from participating in combat roleplay.
*Being banned from noble families.
