Section 1 About Grimlocke

1. What started as just a place for a group of close friends and our stores has been given some considerable thought into opening it up for the public. Grimlocke (formally known as Town of Raccoon Bay) is a family friendly community allowing both children and furries.

2. We appear just like a regular modern family roleplay community; but with the addition of supernatural and mythical beings and lore.

3. Where would Grimlocke be located if this was the real world? Grimlocke would be in Oregon, U.S.A.. We have narrowed it down that we would be neighbors with the city of Astoria nestled along the river surrounded by forest. 

Section 2 Businesses not related to Roleplay

The businesses not related to the town of Grimlocke and the rules for them:

1.  We have a mall in the sky that holds a collaboration of stores. This mall is off-limits to emergency service roleplay (ie, fire, shootings, etc). This is a bother to our visitors.

2. If you are inquiring about space in the mall for a non-roleplay business: All stores must have General to Moderate rated items/pictures/ads only. If you require an area to sell or display your Adult rated items, a skybox will be provided for you. You will be responsible for routing your own teleports. For inquiries, you can open a region support ticket in our Discord.

3.  The community exists because of this mall. This is why Sunrise Heights holds the national forest and the prims rezzed out are heavily monitored.

Section 3 Supernatural Roleplaying

1. We are a supernatural community. What does that mean? It means we are a modern community with supernatural secrets. The laws here are the same as elsewhere with strict rules on supernatural exposure laws. Humans must never find out that supernaturals exist or we could become subjects for scientists, gain the interest of various Government bodies, be used as pawns, etc. 

To simplify this, think of the Harry Potter world. Magic exists but muggles remain blissfully unaware. This allows for everyone to have fun, even if supernatural roleplay isn’t their style. But, that being said, roleplay chat is open for all nature of roleplays that follow our covenant.

2. Not a fan of magic and supernatural? No problem. You would just ignore anything that might seem out of place because the human mind is an amazing thing. Remember, you are never forced to do a roleplay that you did not agree to. Supernaturals will hide their true nature, and if you do come across something out of place, you, as a human, can just pretend there is a reasonable explanation for it and carry on.

1. See someone with wings, horns, or ashen skin – You may see them as normal humans, think they’re cosplaying, or just came back from a party. 

2. Did you stumble on a RP scene where there’s a disembodied voice? You could hear nothing at all, hear the wind, nothing out of the ordinary. 

3. Do you enjoy magic? You’d work hard to protect yourself and others, avoiding bringing up certain things in public or exposing yourself as a non human. The laws are very strict for breaking this and the consequences are severe. We have a Supernatural Council that deals with those who break the no-exposure laws placed by heads of the various supernatural races and gods. Remember, IC actions have IC consequences.

4. Let’s work to make this fun for everyone. We’ve been doing a roleplay storyline for 8 yrs following this rule and do it in non magic communities with no issue. If you have any questions, just ask! We’re more than happy to help you settle in. 

1. We suggest, but do not require, to wear a titler marking your race. This is particularly helpful for those who do not wish to be involved in supernatural roleplays. Mark yourself as human or No Supernatural roleplay.

2. Keep in mind, if you walk into a roleplay, people are not expected to pause or stop roleplaying until you pass. You could emote feeling a chill and a sense of unease, remember you forgot to lock your door, or just turn around and walk away.

Section 1   General Rules

1. All staff decisions are final. If you feel a decision is wrong, you are welcome to open a support ticket and have an appeal made. All decisions are in effect until an answer is given to the appeal. We follow the 3rd strike rule. If the matter or situation has been dealt with prior, it will not be revisited after the 3rd time. 

2. Vulgarity:   We’re not uber strict on this, but we do ask that you do not use strong vulgar words (i.e., slut, cunt, etc), racial slurs, etc. You can break certain words like A** or F**k for emotionally charged scenes but ask that it’s not repetitive. Sometimes certain things slip out, but please monitor yourself. 

1. You can easily emote /me shouted F**K three times after stubbing my little toe on the coffee table.

3. No bullying, No racism.

4. For the sake of sanity, please, avoid discussing heated real life topics such as: religion, politics, covid, ect. 

1. These things may come up in roleplay and it’s fine, just make sure you’re able to dissociate your real feelings to prevent it from becoming something a member of management would need to step in on.

5. We do not allow covid or school violence roleplays

6. No voice. You can use private calling, discord, or various other methods to talk to someone if you need. We also have a discord group, https://discord.gg/R5y9tgfA8J

7. Voice is turned off except on home parcels, fire department, and select areas. All voice rp is voided, only exceptions under approval by management (ie: you have a situation where typing is extremely hard – being drunk is not an excuse. Go to bed.).

8. Please clean up after yourself. Do not keep items rezzed out that are not on your rental property with the exception of a crime or roleplay scene. Please notify a member of staff if you are leaving items out for longer then you will physically be at the scene.

9. Crime boxes – if you do a roleplay crime or setting up a scene, you are required to leave a crime box detailing what would be seen/found. You are welcome to set it up as a scavenger hunt and have it investigated. But a crime box must be left. You can get a crime marker from the welcome center.

10. Characters can not “NPC” check-out of the hospital or jail after a roleplay where they were IC placed. This requires interaction with the appropriate agency. If you are finding yourself unable to roleplay this, one of our moderators will help you fade to black. This does not apply if you were transported to the hospital and no medical was available. In that case, it’s an automatic fade to black and you’re free to go. However, if you choose to be admitted and no one is online, you can check in via Discord.

11. Voiding roleplays – this is generally disapproved of as it affects multiple people. If you’ve laid a scene and it’s been investigated or if you’ve done a roleplay that involves more than just you – you will need management approval to void. The only firm denial for voiding roleplays would be trying to get out of the roleplay consequences. You do an action, you accept the reaction.

12. Please do not teleport in and out in public places when it’s avoidable – create landmarks off to the side of the buildings or inside a room like a restroom.

13. Do not go into someone’s active rental without permission or following the notecards if they have a Roleplay OK sign. See 5:1

14. Clothing – Chest (women) and pelvis must be covered at all times with bits and bobs removed when possible. Child avatars must be fully clothed at all times. We’re aware real life toddlers run around in their diapers most of the time, but this is a game not real life.

15. Slappers – we ask that these be removed as they are disruptive to roleplay and some people tend to troll avatars who wear them.

16.  What we had figured was a no brainer, we now have to add to our rules. No sex or sexual talk outside of your rented privacy parceled home. This applies to all businesses, prison and medical facilities, cars in the forest, and any area that is not a private residence that is privacy parceled. 

17.  IC actions have IC consequences. Do a crime, be prepared to go to jail. There is no such thing as a perfect crime, you will eventually be caught.

1.  You will not be placed in jail longer than 7 RL days. If you find yourself still in jail or it’s been longer than 2 weeks since arrest and trial – please contact the Sheriff or a member of staff.

2. You may be released from jail with parole or probation depending on crime. 

3. Your character will maintain their criminal record

Section 2: Vehicles and Driving

1. If you drive, you are roleplaying, with minor exceptions. You break the law, you serve your sentence. Failure to do so will result in loss of your rp privilege and can result in a temp ban. 

1. *Exceptions – lagging and having your toddler drive home? They need to be wearing an occ tag and have it be emoted that you are the one driving. Your friend crash and you want to move the car and not rp? Wear the ooc tag and do not engage in any rp until the vehicle is where it needs to be.

2. All vehicles left out for 24 hours will be returned. If a vehicle is left for a specific roleplay, management needs to be notified to avoid having it returned. Vehicles owned by a resident with an existing mailbox will not be returned (This is subject to management’s discretion).

3. License Plates/Driver’s Licenses/ID – there are forms for you to fill out here: https://townofgrimlocke.com/dmv/  The fee is $15L for a generic plate & $30L for custom plates, to be paid at the time of delivery. Need a fake ID/license? Yup, we do that do too. Take the risk of being caught without a license (yes we will accept valid licenses and registrations from other communities) and the police may catch you.

4. Vehicles – not over 50 prims (without approval).

5. Szym Paladins:

1. We are allowing Paladins to max out at 75 prims and the truck must be optimized.

2. No more then 1 Paladin per avatar. We will take into consideration for service departments to allow an increase of prims and to allow more than 1 rezzed, i.e. to allow a personal and a work truck, on an individual basis. However, the only people in departments that should be driving vehicles home are police and fire chiefs and assistant chiefs, and the head of DoT.

1. Paladins are amazing trucks, we get it! And the fact you can fully customize them makes this truck unique and highly sought after. 

1. The issue is these trucks, like all vehicles, create a lot of lag. From lights on all the time to the radio playing constantly – this all generates lag due to the scripts running. Regions are only able to support so much script memory before it starts to bog down and lag out.

6. Paying fines – this is rp only. If you do not want to rp with the police/hall in paying it, just do a simple emote in the rp group that your fine has been paid (mailed in, paid online, stopped by the village hall, etc). Post it in the discord server or send a copy of it to the Sheriff or Majors.

7. Vehicles approaching a road blocked due to a roleplay should DM someone involved as a courtesy before going around it. This is to prevent someone uninvolved with the roleplay from being stuck in place. If it is a checkpoint or construction, you’ll be moving soon enough.

8. Vehicles are in character and are open to things like theft RP if unlocked. This also applies to properties with the RP OK sign. Check your vehicle settings and lock your vehicle if you do not want it stolen.

Section 3: Scripted Items

1.  “The Sims’ style huds (BeYou, Life, Life2, Xeolife, Mystory, etc) – Furniture is limited to 3 Hud specific furniture Items/appliances per rental. More will result in you being contacted and asked to pick up the items, or them being returned if you fail to do so.

2. Farming – For systems similar to BeYou and DFS we allow 2 crop plots per rental. We do not allow more than 3 breedable animals per rental. This can be adjusted with approval of management.

3.  NPC’s – this would apply to animesh characters (ie babies, pets). You are allowed up to 4 of these per rental. If you notice sounds are carrying off of your parcel – please immediately notify management to get this corrected.

4. If you rent a plot that is not parceled, you are not permitted to have one of these out that makes sounds when offline. If you are able to mute them, they can remain.

5. Horses/Non Breedable Large Animals – If you are on a region that has the aesthetics to have a farm, this is approved. For the regions that would not support it, we offer stable rentals.

6. For private rentals, you may have up to 4 horses, in the event you have NPCs, you are allowed a total of 7 items to be out, which is a combination of NPC and Large Animals. This is to reduce lag per region.

Section 4 Supernatural Roleplay

1. Your character must be balanced and not be overpowered to the point of making it unfair to those you are roleplaying with. We do have guides for every race to follow upon request but do not push this. This is subject to change if we run into issues.

2. The use of magic huds are not allowed without permission. These tend to drop objects that do not always clean up, create lag, and have the chance of affecting people not involved in your roleplays. They can also lead to the mistake of you being considered a griefer. You MUST gain approval before using these or risk being banned.

3. Does your hud only affect your local area or just a show of lights/runes? These would be acceptable as they do not inflict ‘damage’ to another player. Keep in mind the exposure laws.

4. If you break the no exposure law, you will be subject to punishment by the Supernatural Council.

5. You are free to roleplay supernatural activities in the roleplay group. We just ask that you respect if the person who happens into you does not wish to do supernatural roleplay and has not been involved with your roleplay. You are not required to stop or pause your existing roleplay but don’t try to force someone to roleplay.  

6. We have specific areas set up for supernaturals to let their fangs drop, wings pop out, and claws to stretch

1. Sunrise Heights:

1. Brentmont Mine – This is what humans call the old Dwarven Mine. ICly, it’s closed to the public for safety reasons and boarded up. Humans may be on the “upper” area of the mining tunnels but the “lower” tunnels would be hard for them to navigate. (TLDR: The surface of the region would be considered the upper area as there is a landslide area hiding a cave. The Lower areas would be the tunnel system in the sky, accessed via teleporter).

2. Dwarven Bar – Hidden bar deep in the Dwarven Mine.

3. The Peddlington Nature Reserve – the former meeting area where supernaturals and humans would discuss governing the trading post, supernaturals would hold gatherings, etc. This is the island that the entrances are well hidden and ‘out of sight’ 

2. Juniper Woods

1. Howling Caverns – back behind the underground waterfall of the Howling Caverns is a space created for Supernaturals. There is a hidden area one might feel if they are strong enough to sense it. 

Section 1 Roleplay Decorum

1. Note your age. A toddler would not be stealing a car or living on their own. A baby would not survive being outdoors alone. If you’re just exploring the community, please wear an OOC tag.

2. If you are under the age of 6, you would have a responsible companion. You can just emote having a sitter or adult/teen with you. This caregiver would prevent you from most criminal activities: stealing a car, breaking into a store, etc; and act in the best interest of the child. That being said, ofc some children may find themselves without a guardian. If any crimes are committed, you are expected to roleplay out the consequences and accept that you may be placed in the care of CPS or placed in our juvenile detention center. 

3. Heavy roleplay scenes – child avatars may be asked in DMs to leave an area before IC seeing something. A good example of this would be a gory crime scene. The officers would not have the ability to handle a child on top of the investigation for the scene. Otherwise, an NPC’d officer would intercept you and move you along.

Section 2 Medical Roleplay

1. All children will have a happy ending. No minor aged avatar will be killed or permanently injured. This is done out of respect for those who do real life medical.

2. Recovery period will be up to the medical and child roleplayer and not to exceed an unreasonable amount of time. Unless both parties have agreed, no one should be held longer than 7 RL days. 

3. Please ensure that all parties are comfortable with the nature of roleplay.

        Section 3 Teen/Minor aged Criminals

1. Child avatars under the age of 14 should not be committing major crimes such as grand theft auto, robbery, and arson. Common sense logic applies; Stealing your parents car at age 12 is reasonable, setting buildings on fire and lockpicking and stealing other people’s cars at age 8-12 are not. Capitol crimes like attempted murder and murder should not be committed by any child avatar under age 16.

1. There are always exceptions to rules. Accidental fires, an in depth character who is willing to accept roleplay consequence, a storyline that has led to a certain roleplay plot. If you are uncertain, you’re always welcome to reach out.

2. Please note – juvie is for all minor aged characters. Just because you are a single digit age will not prevent you from being placed behind bars

2. You will not be held longer than 7 days in Juvie unless this is agreed on by yourself and with the Sheriff’s consent. If you find yourself still in Juvie or still awaiting a trial – please contact the Sheriff or a member of staff.

Section 4 Juvenile Detention for Criminal Youth

1. The Juvenile Detention Center is for criminal youth who are serving out their sentences. It is up to the Judge to place you in the center versus sitting in a jail cell on the juvie block.

2. The group home would have a no cell phone policy and all phones would be turned in once entering the building. There would be cameras everywhere and it should be npc’d as a full staff working with regular rounds and searches being done.

3. You would not have unmonitored access to a computer. All activity would be logged and you would only have access to certain sites as granted by staff. This would be access to your school login, spotify, etc. Sites that would have a low chance of you reaching out to people on the outside.

4. There would be visiting hours between the hours of 10am and 6pm. All visitors are subject to be searched and would only be allowed access to the visitor receiving area. All visitors would have to be pre-authorized by staff at either Hearth or the Court system.

5. You would need a keycode to be let into and out of the building, with the exception of a fire alarm that would automatically unlock all doors.

6. All interior doors would be keycoded with juveniles given free access to the common area. Interior doors would be monitored by a member of staff at all times and kept locked.

7. You would more than likely have some form of community service when freed from the Center.

8.  You are allowed up to 30 prims for personal effects in your dorm. These would be items such as religious symbols, photos, school related, books, bed decor, etc. You would not have electronics beyond a basic radio.

9.  Your cell would be searched randomly. IC you would not have much privacy.

10.  You can only be held in juvie or the group home for a week, 7 days max, unless you agree to a longer sentencing. If you find your case hasn’t been closed or you haven’t been given your court date – please contact management.

1. Section 1 Basics

1. Rented homes are marked with mailboxes either near the front door or fence gates. These may not be mailboxes if the aesthetics may call for something else. It could be a bird feeder near the gate, a light above the door of a business. 

2. Rented homes – We hate that we have to put this in here… But sometimes you do have new players that do not understand private property is a thing in SL. If the meter box is locked or there is no floating text – it is a rented home. This means you cannot enter without permission, set fire to the home, etc. If you want to rp breaking into a home or being an arsonist/graffiti artist, contact the renter prior for approval. The only exception to this rule would be if they have the RP OK sign with a notecard detailing permission.

3. Roleplay Notification – We will provide 2 signs of which one is to be placed near the front of your property. These will be roleplay allowed or no roleplay. 

1. You will need to dictate via a dropped notecared in the roleplay allowed sign if you are willing to have your home open to roleplay and what your limits are (ie, break ins allowed, no break ins when offline, what security measures you have around the property).

1.  If you state you have cameras, there needs to be at least 1 camera visible.

2. You do not need to have physical NPC but you do need to where they would be at and if they’d be patrolling

1. This is also within reason:

1.  a townhouse is not going to have patrolling guards or staff, but you might have a house cleaner. 

2. A larger home or one of the country homes that may sit on a large amount of land may have patrols/guards/etc. These would need to be stated. 

3. You should also be stating at least 1 opening if you’re allowing RP to happen on your property when you are not online. 

1. Ie, when the guards change shifts, there’s a 15 min window

2. Ie, cook stays in kitchen from 9am-4pm and leaves, the butler is in the house from 6am until 9pm. 

4. Rented properties – Anyone who has things rezzed must be on your mailbox. When we do prim audits, things not owned by someone on your mailbox will be returned.

5. Parceled Rented Homes – These are the only homes we don’t care about the type of furniture you have inside of them. As the apartments, businesses, and other rentals are not parceled, we ask that you do not have A rated furniture. These tend to speak in local chat and we are unable to privately parcel them.

6. Security orbs are not allowed and will be returned. If you have a need to have someone banned from your parcel, contact a member of management.

7. We do not offer refunds – Just like every other community out there. The only exception to this rule would be in the event of a shut down, loss of region, or an error on our behalf.

8. If you have an unparceled home, you are not allowed to have A rated furniture rezzed out. There is no way to 1 prevent ppl from seeing in and 2 restricting the local chatter to keep it private.

2. Plot Changes

1. House Swapping – switching out one building for another. The owner, Jenniferlimana will need to approve the building.

1. it must fit the aesthetics of the region.

2.  the renter will be required to pay a min of 3 weeks on their rental or have 5 weeks time remaining on their rental. There is a lot of work that goes into switching out houses (landscaping, terraforming, driveways, fences, etc).

3. If you would like to use your own house, you must have approval by management. Please do not buy a home prior to this approval.

4. We will not allow 2 of the same house on an individual region or to sit side by side in the event the property is against a region border. This is up to the discretion of management.

5. House swapping is limited to once every two months or at the discretion of the rental team.

3. Landscaping

1. You are welcome to decorate your yard as you please. We do reserve the right to ask you to remove things if they clash against the aesthetic of the area you are in.

1. An example of this would be a prim tree that is on full bright. This would heavily clash against the rest of the landscaping. If you love this particular tree, place it out of sight behind your home.

2. Holidays – If the region can support it, we will at times allow you to go over your prim limits but unless this is stated publicly – you must remain within your prim limits

1. Sounds from these decorations must remain on your parcel. If you are on a parcel that is not parceled and the sounds are loud enough to disturb others, you may be asked to remove the item.

3. Unless you have prior permission, no landscaping/decorations are to be off of your parcel or in front of your fence/yard (lights/vines are OK on the fence). 

4. Prefurnished rentals – rentals that are are decorated

1. Residence

1.  the renter will be required to pay a min of 2 weeks on their rental or have 4 weeks time remaining on their rental in order to clear a pre-decorated location. This is due to the work of replacing the times if you chose to no longer rent that location.

2. Business 

1. You are renting the business from decoration/furniture to the building. This will not be replaced but you are welcome to add your own personal touches. 

2. No strobe or flashing lights

3. No sound makers – unless the business is able to be privacy parceled, the sounds will carry across the community

4. If mgmt has an idea or upgrade opportunity, the Renter reserves the right to have the final say on changes (unless it’s an emergency situation or something breaks) until the end of their tenancy. 

5. The Renter is allowed to host events at their establishment but are responsible for their own posters. Mgmt can post the event times/posters in the Discord and on our event calendar.

Section 3 Other Rental

1. Equestrian Rentals 

1. Stables are rented at 1.3L/P

2. restricted to equestrian items and avatars only

1. you might live in the stall with your trusty stead but you wouldn’t have the comforts of home.

3. The area for the stables is parceled

4. The teleporter for the skybox will take you to the staging/equestrian event area and is open for the public. This teleporter can be found by the horse rezzer.

5. The skybox is off limits to fire and shooting roleplay.

2. Rental Swaps

1.  you must pay a minimum of 1 week on the new rental before the transfer will be processed.

2. Open a support ticket in our Discord or ask for a member of the rental team in the OOC group. We push Discord only because it’s the fastest way to get you assistance. 

3. Only the Renter, not subtenants, will be able to request a transfer. 

3. Discount(s): 

1. 10% discount 2 weeks after roleplay business opening

2. 15% discount (Only after 2 weeks of active role-play) for 

1. active emergency services personnel: Fire, Police, Medical, and Legal. 

2. This applies to Teachers, CPS, & Hearth Staff

3. 20% discount for department heads: Fire, Medical, Sheriff, Education

4. These discounts are limited to active roleplayers only. You must be active within the community a min of 3 days a week or the discount is subject to removal. This does not mean you mark yourself as on duty then sit afk in the building. This is a reward given to active roleplayers

5. You are responsible to submitting a rental ticket and ask for these discounts as we are unable to monitor everyone and immediately know who has or hasn’t received the discounts.

Important Rental Information 

Management reserves the right to evict and reset the rental under the following conditions:

1. Rental is marked as “Will not Renew” and is cleared out with less than 4 days on the rental.

2. Rental appears abandoned (no furniture and no one has been to the property).

3. Renter does not respond within 3 days to management asking if property is abandoned.

4. Renter has notified management they are no longer renting.

5. Renter has been banned

6. Renter is given a 48 (cabins, dock slips, stables) or 72 hour (homes, businesses) grace period from tenancy expiration until we reclaim. However this is not a right and we reserve the right to reclaim a rental when the tenancy expires

1. Everyone has a right to privacy. This means camming is highly discouraged into rented homes. Don’t want to see a photo or a BDSM cross? Don’t look into the person’s home. This is their personal space they are renting and not open for negotiation or judgment by others. No one should be camming into a home, taking pictures, and sharing it around as a joke or ‘concerned.’ If you’re truly concerned about something, contact a general manager or the rental manager with your concerns. Fair warning, if we are unable to see what the issue from the sidewalks/is not visible from outside the home – there is nothing we can do unless it breaks LL ToS.

2. All Public Service Buildings (law, legal, medical, fire, city hall, gas station, school, etc) would have cameras, staff, and locked doors/keypads for entry into non public areas.

1. This is implied even if no one is on duty or physically there. Medical, fire, & Sheriff’s Office would have people around the clock there 

1. Example: The hospital would have 24 hr coverage. People would be present even if there are no physical players. You wouldn’t be able to break in and steal supplies without getting caught or swiping a keycard.

2. ALL public buildings (restaurants, stores, etc), during open hours (consider open hrs as 8am-9pm, with the exception of Whalemart (24 hrs), Drive-In (open until 2am) will have NPC people present when there are no physical players. 

3. If you notice there is an active roleplay using utility resources (fire, sheriff, medical), message one of the resource roleplayers before starting another roleplay. 

1. For example, if there is a shooting, do not start a fire when there are only 2 law enforcement personnel and they are already in another active roleplay. Or if the firefighters are battling a fire, do not wreck your vehicle and expect them to come to you.

2. Please be patient. Remember these people are just like you. Here to roleplay and have fun doing it. A person can only do so much and we do not want anyone to feel stressed or burned out.

4. All emergency calls and roleplay chatter is in the roleplay group only. The OOC group is for out of character chatting or roleplay discussion.

5. Fires – HD only. 

1. Max 4 fires with 2 childs or 2 fires w 3 child. Please only set the fire to the type of burn it is (ie, kitchen fire would require foam not water. Forest fire would require water.) This is to keep the sim lag down. 

2. There can not be more than 1 fire roleplay at a time, any that happen after the first roleplay is activated will be voided immediately. 

1. Exception – with approval from the fire chief or a member of management.

6. We do not use a health meter here. Not only does it give an unfair disadvantage over those with less than stellar connections or technology, it’s a pain to old school rp’rs. We follow a 3 line attack rule & strongly advise the use of dice if it is a fight

1. 3 line attack example

1. *Sasemi: Sas pulls a throwing dagger off her hip and twirls it in her fingers as she stares at the man threatening her.

Roger: Roger eyes up the dagger and subtly reaches into his pocket to pull out his switchblade with the thumb trigger.

Sasemi: Sas deftly twirls the dagger and throws it.

1. That attack was done in 3 lines. At this point, Roger has the call to make if the dagger hits him in some way. This being said, you cannot avoid every attack. Even if your character is a Samurai (Sasemi) and highly trained, she would not be able to avoid every attack. Same with someone in a gunfight. Choose these battles carefully and discuss with your rp partners the course of action you wish or don’t wish to take. We do not support perma-deaths here (but it is up to the owner of the character how to handle it). If you are fatally shot, you have the option to have it rp’d as medical saving your life, AKA fade to black.. If you choose to die, it would be a name change and a new character.

2. Dice Rolls – We offer a dice hud in the visitor welcome basket located in the welcome center.

1. use to gauge your attacks and their hits. Dice numbers are as follows:

1. 1-4 barely hit opponent / easily avoided

2. 5-7 hit of some sort / it’s going to sting, possible bleeding, light bruising

3. 8-9 land a hard hit on the opponent / you would have a hard time running off. Your leg, arm, etc would be heavily damaged and unusable

4. 10-12 your attack succeeds as you intended in the emote given / close to unconsciousness and unable to avoid the attack at all or your hit is head on.

3. All Bans are held a minimum of 30 days. After 30 days, you have the right to appeal.
