You must be over eighteen to play in this Continuity. Don't lie, we will find out about it.
You must be able to regularly post eight lines or more.
You must understand the information on Feudal structure. If you don't, whisper Mereavus, and she'll help you with the parts you don't grasp.
You must be able to roleplay in the dream at least once a week. Absence without a reason (posted either on the forums, or informing another member) for two weeks may result in your character being deleted or NPCed.
Godmoding and OOC interference (that is, when you manipulate something OOCly to go your way, or use OOC knowledge IC) are taken very seriously. You will be banned if we see this happening. Period.
Your character may die or be harmed in this roleplay. You must understand this, as we will not be sympathetic to griping about consequences coming to your character. It's a simple equation: if your character does something that might get them killed, you must be prepared for the possibility of them being killed.
Be nice to people. We'll be nice to you, so please to be returning the niceness.
1. What Dream Standard does Knoxwater have?
We currently have an A18+ rating. This is because we like to play realistically, without worrying about whether we're polluting the minds of young folk! It also helps establish an adult player base, which we feel is important in Knoxwater. As in all dreams, you must adhere to the Furcadia TOS; you must not roleplay rape in this dream at all, regardless of its standard.
2. How often would I be expected to be active in the dream?
Every damn day!
; Actually, we understand that Furcadia is a recreational hobby and a lot of people aren't here at all hours of every day. It's great for us if you are, but if not, we'd hope to see you around once or twice a week. If you're absent for longer than two weeks without finding a way to tell us why (for example, post it up on the forums, whisper a member, etc.), we reserve the right to remove or NPC your character.
3. I have an idea. Who can I speak to?
For help creating your character or adjusting a current one to fit, please whisper Mereavus, and she'll be happy to talk with you about it.
4. Can I make alts?
You can make alts! We request that you've been active in the dream for two weeks before you do so, however, and the general maximum is three. If you're really desperate for a fourth, don't hesitate to talk to Mereavus, who might be in a nice mood and let you do so. If you've made her a cup of tea recently.
5. How much do you expect me to post?
We're looking for paragraph roleplayers, which are a rare commodity in Furcadia these days! Upwards of eight lines is an acceptable post length in Knoxwater. Repeated use of anything less may mean your application to roleplay here will be reconsidered.
6. I want to take on a role with responsibilities. Does that change any of my requirements?
Unfortunately, it does. We've all experienced it when someone's taken on a main character and they've poofed for a week, when people really need them to be around. If you want to play someone vital to the storyline, we do request that you're capable of playing at least four days of the week and have demonstrated an understanding of the context. You may be required to undergo a test roleplay before you take on the position.
Note: We operate on a basis that doesn't allow our Rah to take on positions of excessive power (because she has enough OOC, and it might make her ego too big). This is to ensure that the game's storyline is as player-fuelled as it is Rah-moderated.
