NPG SS.Septimo Favilla

**The S.S. Septimo; Favilla** is a roleplay community currently based on IMVU and Discord. When you enter this weird and wonderful world, you will follow a fantasy crew led by Vivian Everett across the steampunk influenced world of Morpheus. A world home to many species and kin that make up the diversity that is the crew of Favilla. Here you can catch a glimpse of what we have to offer you in terms of setting and lore, everything you need to know to accompany your invitation to this wonderful RP community. Any questions can be asked of the current crew, and we shall support you through your character creation and understanding of our fantasy world.

**Favilla is for those 18+** Characters and your fellow players may have crude/dark humour, be flirtatious and some characters may have triggering backgrounds - such as abuse and slavery. If you have any concerns or upset over OOC or character conversations, please raise concerns with the room owner, but this is not a RP for light hearted.

## MORPHEUS

Morpheus is the largest planet in the realm known as Ursa Sirius and home to many species. The people of this world believe two gods, Data and Ventura, play a massive part in the lore and your characters ancestor and heritage. Depending on your characters race and abilities, depends on which god they are associated with.

#### **The Caoul?**

The 'Children of Data.' Caoul believe that Data created the realm and the later gods that brought Morpheus to be as beautiful as we see. The common belief is Ventura's virus that came to Morpheus to destroy Data's creations. And if he is to be labelled a god, they resentfully lable them as 'God of Destruction'. To be Caoul you will have to be human or superhuman without the ability to use magic. Caoul rely on science and technology.

#### **The Maori?**

The 'Children of Ventura'. Maori believe that Ventura was a gift to create balance and is a god of equal or greater power to Data. They call him the 'God of Magic'. They tend to see Caoul as weaker beings and believe that natural selection will wipe Morpheus of those who cannot use Magic. Maori are the beings that are born with magic or to a magical heritage.

***Disclaimer:*** *The two often discriminate against each other. However your character can hold neutral beliefs or warped beliefs. Not all Caoul are evil/saints and not all Maori are evil/saints. Your characters group will affect how they are treated though Morpheus. Not one is stronger or weaker. Muggles and Wizards in the Harry potter universe.*

## SS.Septimo; Favilla

The Septimo name was known across Morpheus for being a safehouse where all can live in harmony. That was until it fell 10 years ago. Since the destruction of Septimo, a new ship has been recreated under Captain Vivian Everett. The ship sails once more as it did many years before. Passage to board is not free, you will be expected to work for your bunk. The ship will travel land to land, completing quests and getting involved in missions. Build your character and make your own path, building friendships and making enemies along the way.

**If you want your character to be knowledgeable about the ship and its history, please press expand to read some basic information.**

**Common knowledge:**
* The ship is a safehouse
* The past captains are, in order, Scorpia Darkhart, Kura-Skye Edwards, Abel Baudouin, Matthew Edwards and Jacob Jenkinson.
* Kura-Skye was the longest reigning captain of the Septimo. Leaving the crew to grown a family. She is now the Queens Regent of Hazael - Regalis
* The Septimo has harboured many lost royalty, criminals and other famous names.
* In 1771 the ship joined the Meridianus war under Jenkinsons captainship. This was a civil war between Maori and Caoul that resulted in the deaths of many. Septimo aided in ending this war. After the horror of war came to a end, the septimo disappeared.

**Uncommon Knowledge:**

* If your character has debt or bounty, this is transferred to the captains head while you are a member of the Favilla. The bounty will return to your head when you leave the Favilla.
* The ship was created by Orphans and was originally designed as a war submarine by the famous inventor Christian Jenkinson.
* After the Meridianus war, the Meridian Caoul army sent a fleet after Septimo, the ship sunk at the surprise attack by Orzyan shores. - Only people of Orzya will know this information as fact and not ledgent.

**Rumours and legends:**

* There is many legends of where and how the ship sunk. Includng who survived the horror. Many speculate the captain went down with his crew due to new captainship with the rise of favilla.

**You do not need to know this information unless your character wishes to be more aware of the Favilla. There will be some people who do not know of the boat, and those that do.**

However due to the nature of Favilla, there are no typical religious aspects and thus **Demonic and Angelic creatures are non existent.** Demons, Angels and Gods are not accepted. However if you with to discuss your character design with the Admin/Owner, we can work with these characters to give then a new or existing race *(Example: Demon hound =/= Blood hound)*

## Favilla Rules and Guidelines

### Posting

* Post what makes you feel comfortable. Averagely we post a small paragraph of 3-10 sentences (Less for dialog, more for detail). You are welcome to post larger posts, but be aware that we may reply with the average. - Action and entrances are normally larger posts.
* Post freely. Unless requested, there is no post order.

### Keep in-character interactions fair.

* We do not recommend you playing a overly strong or powerful character. Your idea of over powered and this roleplays idea may vary. Your character should be able to fight fairly in missions and spars with the rest of the group, all players should have some equal input to missions and no character should dominate because they are too powerful.

* **No God-Modding, Auto-hitting, Metagaming etc**.

### OOC drama & NSFW

* Do not mix IC and OOC. Roleplay should be fun and character interactions and scenes should not affect your mood negatively.
* This is a 18+ group and some triggering topics may be discussed. If you dislike any conversation topics in or out of character, step away from them. Saying this if you believe the topics of conversation is offensive and should not be voiced, raise your concerns with the moderator team. There is a difference between mature topics and speaking in a hateful and distasteful way.
* We do not allow discrimination between players and this may result in a warning or instant ban if it is seen as an attack.
* There is a NSFW channel on the discord. If you wish for Sexual roleplay content, please take this to a private message.

### No bubble roleplay

* This means to roleplay 1 on 1 or in a small select group without allowing people to enter. If you post in the IMVU room or in the discord, your post must be open for people to join. do not ignore people posting in.
* Some character is in 'ships'. Ship couples are not to keep RP between them. Public displays of affection between characters should be natural and not exclusive to story progression.
* THIS IS NOT A ROMANCE ROLEPLAY. Ships are not necessary and we recommend all romance, friendships and sexual behaviours to be slow paced and natural.

## Warning system

We do have a warning system in place. These warnings are given if any of the rules above are broken. As it stands we issue warnings based on the severity of your actions. though typically we will give 3 warnings. Some other responses like instant requests to leave or forced hiatus may be discussed. The moderator team take anti-social and unfair behaviour vary seriously and will listen to any concerns you may have.

### IMVU Rules

* Parking is allowed, but you may be requested to leave if the room reaches maximum capacity
* Your character does not need to resemble your avatar
* The room owner (AnjuAequitas) Has VIP and is available for whisper. If you have any questions please ask this way, or invite to a Private chat.

### DISCORD Rules

Discord has become the secondary platform for roleplay. there is mixture of channels to roleplay across the areas of Favilla, and also a couple of side roleplays. We have regular OOC and a friendly community to chat and converse with.

* When posting to people you must @ the person you are replying too. It is recommended to have your notifications to @mentions only.
* Post in the appropriate Roleplay thread. Feel free to start and exit roleplay threads as desired.

* If moderators feels a RP thread is becoming stale - meaning there has not been a reply in so many days. We will close the thread and leave the channel open for new posts.
* There is a negative chat channel on the discord. Use this to rant, moan, talk about politics blah blah blah. This is your place to vent. Keep all negativity out of the other channels on the discord.

### Hiatus

Should you want to leave, please let us know. And know if you are wanting to leave you are welcome back.

On the Discord we have a Hiatus Channel. This lets players know who is currently not available for RP and how long they are thinking they will be unavailable. Keeping them as Hiatus allows everyone to know they are part of the story, and they wish to return.

There is also the option to become a Lurker, some people may have friends or there has been old members who do not, or can not, roleplay anymore. Because of this, we have created a Lurker role. This allows people engage in the community.
