The Empire of Fayandria Code of Conduct
Posted by Anouk Lefavre in Code of Conduct, Royal Proclamations
The Empire of Fayandria is dedicated to medieval role-play (“RP”). The RP is free form in nature and not based on any one specific tale.
Please read these rules carefully. It's not as much to read as it looks at first. Everybody is expected to comply with this Code of Conduct and Rules to ensure fair and happy RP.
CODE OF CONDUCT:
We have a few simple rules to follow while you are here.
Please read below and ask one of our Ministers or a resident if you have any questions.
1. Give respect to all.... and have fun!
2. This is an RP Sim. RP, no matter your experience, is expected and ongoing at all times. Please keep private conversations and Out of Character (“OOC”) comments in IMs, so as not to disturb RP.
3. If you start an RP in Fayandria, be fair. If you break character or leave at a critical moment you may be considered dead for 24 hours. If some one does not have a meter on, don't start to fight them; they are OOC or non combatant
4. This sim is Medieval, and medieval wear is expected.
Dress Code: All players and visitors will dress in medieval attire. They will dress in character. While this Sim contains mature subject matter, it is NOT a sex Sim. All players are expected to dress appropriately.
5. Teleporting (TPing):
1) No TPing out of a battle, to escape capture or combat.
2) The use of TPing in and out of Fayandria is fine if you use the transporter portals (looks like a sundial) located on several Sims.
3) If you need to leave for OOC reasons, notify an admin to get consent. When this occurs make it known in ((OOC)) and agree with the other party to resume the RP at a later time or/and agreed outcome. If you don't like an RP situation, you are welcome to TP out, as said before.
6. No Gorean or BDSM activities will be part of the RP here. (Capturing can happen in RP but only with consent, and not for the purpose of sexual slavery). Those breaking this rule will be ushered off the sim.
7. We are all free citizens and in charge of our own behaviour. We are adults and are expected to behave with appropriate decorum and dignity. No nudity, or "adult behaviour" is permitted in public areas or in public view. You are all, however, free to perform any and all acts of love, passion or sex in any manner, and at any time you choose, in the privacy of your homes or castles.
8. BE AWARE THAT THERE ARE CHILD AVATARS AROUND! However, it is the responsibility of the person playing the child avatar to avoid situations which are either sexual in nature or have the potential to develop into an adult situation. PLEASE READ "CHILD AVATARS" BELOW.
Consequences:
1st You will be warned about the rule you are breaking.
2nd You will be asked to comply.
3rd You will be ejected.
RULES OF ROLE-PLAY
RP is fun and easy, and you can have the time of your Secondlife doing it. These are some basic rules that you may find helpful.
Azora Meters:
By entering the Empire of Fayandria, and wearing the Azora meter, you agree that you will obey this Sim’s Code of conduct and Rules. The Azora Meter is provided for you free of charge.
You agree that you are at least 18 years of age. Fayandria is a mature Sim meaning it is possible to come across adult situations or subject matter.
You agree NOT to age play in public or private. Any such acts will be dealt with severely by Fayandria’s staff AND Linden Labs.
You agree by wearing the Azora combat meters provided for you, that you are hereby consenting to any RP.
By royal proclamation, it is illegal to wear any other combat system meter here in the Realm. If you do continue to wear a different system, you could be subject to immediate expulsion from the lands of Fayandria.
Permission to access land:
If your RP is going to involve someone else's land, make sure you have permission from the owner of the land to spend some extensive time on that land on a certain day or time.
You won't run into any issues in the Sims of Fayandria because that is what the Sims were designed for.
Personal introductions:
Everyone wears nametags, but in RP you have to be formally or informally introduced before you know the person's name.
Absence of character:
If the storyline takes you away from the lands by kidnapping, capture and so on, then that character should not be seen in any of the Sims until that RP issue has been resolved. For this reason, it is good to have a planned course of action ahead of time so that the issue can be resolved quickly.
In those situations it is also recommended that you have an alternative character (alt) with permissions to build on your behalf so that you can carry on your business. You should also wear an OCC tag or detach your Azora meter so that everyone knows you are taken out of the action. If that is not possible, however, an Alt character can keep the RP true.
Keep to the storyline:
The rule of thumb is that once something is made factual in your story line, it should remain true. When you meet someone, you will continue to be known as the person you introduce yourself as unless for some reason the person you meet had no memory.
Location of items:
If you are setting up an RP and that RP requires an item to be found, do not send out a notice to search for that item unless it is somewhere to be found.
CHILD AVATARS:
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
Absolutely no age play, sex or anything along those lines will be tolerated and will result in on the spot permanent ban and report to Linden Labs. NO EXCEPTIONS. We will not be held Liable nor tolerate such acts period, and there will be no further discussion on the matter.
To play a "child" Avatar you must either have "Parent(s)" or be designated as an “Orphan”. “Parents" will be held responsible for "child" avatars unless they tell an admin they are no longer "Parents" of said child. Any Adult confronting a "child" to fight or engage in age play or any inappropriate acts, RP or OOC will be banned on the spot.
Players who choose to play a child in Fayandria are welcome. However, this is a MATURE CONTENT SIM with COMBAT and OTHER ADULT SITUATIONS. Though this is not a sex Sim, there are places where nudity and intimacy are permitted. While ADULTS are permitted to play children of any age here, you are expected to keep your character away from battles and adult situations.
A child will be allowed to carry weapons if he or she has been continuously trained in their use. They will, however, avoid battles. Players are not to intentionally harm a child in any way, but it must be understood that a child avatar may be hit and possibly even killed if he or she is too close to a battle. Players are not expected to stop and check whether a child avatar is in the vicinity prior to battle.
Attacking/Harming Children:
No player will intentionally attack a child or harm them in any way, either through meter combat or RP. If a child does not leave the field of battle and is accidentally hit, it is that player’s own fault. However, you are to avoid hitting children when possible even in battles.
Child "prisoners"
Children may be kidnapped to use for prisoner exchange. Children may not be harmed in any way or forced to do any work.
Of Age
When a child is 14 years of age they may defend themselves unless it is in their race rules to be otherwise.
Addendum:
Story lines will always grow and develop and intertwine as we progress. Many of our paths will cross in the most interesting ways.
We look forward to role-playing with you.
