General and Roleplay Rules

[Riverstar]

General Rules

This is the rules for the site. If these rules are not followed, certain actions will take place. This is a site that is safe for all players and characters, and we wish to keep it that way. Upon this rules list, you will find a key code, made of three parts. That will be required in all the character applications, and will be redone from time to time for those who copy.
Thank you and enjoy your stay here at Warriors: Natural Disasters.

Do not ask anyone for anything on this site. It will get you automatically banned. If you have been asked for something, please keep the note and forward it to the owner.

2) This site is intermediate to advanced roleplay. Please do not use chatspeak unless in the designated OOC area.

3) This is a Warriors roleplay. Play according to that. There are no cats such as leopards, lions, or tigers.

4) All admins, moderators, or staff that have been given power will be respected. You will also be forced to respect your fellow members. Don't take advantage of that. Thank you.

5) Please leave the roleplay in the roleplay. If your characters hate each other, that does not mean you hate each other out of character.

Roleplay Rules

1) I will not stress enough that you must not auto-hit, godmode, or be a perfect cat! If I catch you, or someone else is having a problem with this, you will only get three warnings before severe punishment begins to happen.

2) This is an intermediate to advanced roleplay. We don't expect you to start with this type of skill, but we do expect that you give an effort. Each post should be a minimum of three sentences. We would really love more then that. Multi-paragraph roleplay is encouraged.

3) Only the leader or the owner may accept the applications. Leaders may only do this for their Clans.

4) Respect the Warrior Code. Roleplayers that do not know the warrior code should look it up and act accordingly. What the Leader says, goes.

5) There is no swearing in the roleplay. We do allow the curse words such as 'fox-dung', 'mouse-brain', ect.

6) The borders can be played by either Clan. Take the South Border, for example. It is located in the FloodClan forum area, but both QuakeClan and FloodClan may post here in order to send out their patrols. Each Clan has one of these to make it even.

7) One cat per account.[/u] This is a new rule, but I will not put a limit on how many accounts you have.

8) When your cat is speaking, please place it in a color or bold it. When your cat is thinking, please make sure that it is italicized. You may choose to have the thoughts in the same color as your cats talk color.

9) If you have read both the General Rules and Roleplay, please place are in your application. Check below for more rules for the roleplay with the third part to the phrase.

Kitting and Mating Rules

[/SIZE][/center]
1) To have a mate, you must roleplay your either asking the she-cat/tom to be your mate, or each confessing their love for the other. You can start in the Searching board if you wish.

2) If you are denied to have make a mate out of a tom/she-cat, do not pester the person in PMs. You are more then welcome to try and pester in the roleplay though, until you are told to knock it off by the other character. Sometimes persistence gets noticed.

Aging Rules

[/SIZE][/center]

1) Any cats above the age of 72 moons will be those cats that were in the clan during the reign of the original leaders. Most likely, these cats are elders and very few in number.

2) Kits are kits until they get their apprentice name, which is around 6 moons.

3) Apprentices will be based on the roleplay, but on the age as well. Apprentices receiving their warrior name will be no younger then 14 moons and no older then 21 moons.

4) Elders do not have a limit on age, it is until your warrior can no longer do the duties of the warrior state and are retired.

5) Apprentices must have done these things before they become a warrior:

Been on at least three patrols.
Had at least four lessons from their mentor.
Been to a Gathering.
Been assesed by their mentor.
Learnt how to hunt and fight.
Been shown the borders, their territory, and Four Stones by their mentor.
Been to the Crystal Cavern.

You must have had your apprentice for about three/four weeks before it can become a warrior.

6) Any warrior that has had an apprentice can become deputy, but you must have your Clan leader's permission.

7) Kits will be weaker than apprentices, warriors stronger than apprentices, deputies generally weaker than leaders and stronger than warriors, deputies and leaders stronger than elders. Consider this while in battle.

8) If you have read these rules, please place you in your application.
