• In the immortal words of Bill & Ted, "Be excellent to each other."

Ravaged is a welcoming space to all types of people. Do not bring up topics that may bring up an altercation.

• As per the Proboards ToS, all players must be 13+

Anyone found to be under the minimum age requirement will be issued an immediate ban.

• One account per character.

A new character account should be made for each new character under the new character's name.

• While not required, we recommend using a Discord account.

Discord chat makes it simple to quickly and effeciently discuss plots and form rapport with your fellow players. We ask that players use the same OOC name and Discord Server Nickname to avoid potential confusion.

• All IC posts should be made with IC accounts and vice versa.

Posting in the RP boards with an OOC account will result in a warning. Please keep all OOC posts made with OOC accounts.

• Ravaged is rated PG-13.

While we do allow some violence and cursing, please keep it within reason. Sexual content will not be tolerated.

• All posts must be written in third-person, past-tense.

This is to keep all story telling consistent.

• We allow for a loose posting order.

Players and characters are allowed to speak out of turn. We understand in some instances a character may not have anything to add in the current round of replies. Or maybe another character is far more eagerly engaged in the scene. And we cannot forget the potential need of skipping due to outside circumstances. Players, however, should be considerate and allow all characters the chance to respond.

• Absolutely no Godmodding, Powerplaying, or Meta-Gaming.

• In-character posts and replies should be a minimum of five sentences.

With this rule we still expect players to keep pace with their partners. We value quality over quantity but expect players to contribute enough in posts and replies for others to respond to.

• At this time, created characters must be domesticated dogs only.

This includes any breeds of dog.

At this time we do not allow for wild or hybrid canine characters - though we may look into it as a possibility in the future.

• All characters must be a part of the pack.

At this time, all characters must be created as a part of or with intention to join the pack for the sake of moving the story along. This may be altered in the future.

Loners may be allowed in the future. During any time we open the ability to create Loner characters, the portion in the census will no longer be crossed out. We will also send out an update in the news and an alert will be posted to the Discord.

• Characters must age up as seasons pass.

As time passes, characters grow older. We ask that players keep this in mind and try to keep character ages up-to-date in profiles, logs, and posts.

• Players may create characters of any religion, nationality, sexuality, etc.

We encourage our players to be creative with their characters. So long as it makes sense in the world of Ravaged go nuts!
