TDLRP Rules

**Disclaimer**: *These are not meant to offend you or alarm you in any way. We ask that you follow these rules so that we can create a fun and structured experience for the common role-player. If you have any questions about the rules or the way this role-play works, ask us in our main studio on scratch [ https://scratch.mit.edu/studios/26789773/ ] or submit a form to add a rule to the rules studio and this wiki page [* https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/428294034/ *].*

## Rules

Follow typical warrior cats lore! (If you have no idea what that is, ask!) There *are* some new magical components to this RP, but weeks/nine lives/StarClan is all the same!

In *this* RP, a moon = a week! This is because we want to speed up aging

No Mary-sues (too nice/innocent of characters) or Gary-sues (too bad/grumpy of characters)

No power-playing (controlling another person’s character)

No god-modding (creating too-powerful of characters and using them)

ONLY two characters per person! If we catch you using alternate accounts to create more characters, YOU WILL BE BANNED (no warning required)!

Each character you make has to have a separate sign-up sheet!

You are not allowed to have two leaders, two deputies, or two medicine cats at the same time, as well as one deputy and one leader at the same time

To fill out a campaign form for your warrior to become deputy, you MUST NOT have any leader or deputy characters at that moment!

YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SIGN-UP AS A DEPUTY! They are determined through voting!

You are also not allowed to sign-up as a queen! In order to have kits, you must have a mate (and/or surrogate, if it is a w|w or m|m relationship) that is acquired in-rp

Prefixes that you are NOT able to use: Dark, Bright, Flood, Heat, Moon, Star, North, South, East, West, Diamond, Glass, Hammer, and any other Twoleg items!

LGBTQ+ is allowed, and encouraged!

No hate of ANY kind will be tolerated! If we catch you shaming someone or being unnecessarily rude, we will either give you a warning or ban you from this role-play altogether (depending on the scale of the offense)

To be accepted into the clans, you must fill out the sign-up sheet (provided in this and every other studio). If we do not respond to your sign-up sheet within three days, that means that we have missed it (unless told otherwise). Please contact @tdlrpMODS after three days if we have not responded.

You can only k!ll off a character if you have had that character for over a month, and must wait at least seven days before making a new one

You must have permission from at least one moderator to have an FBL (forbidden love)

Only five FBLs per clan at a time!

You must have five separate role-plays with another character before you can form a crush. Seven separate role-plays before you can become mates!

Your cat must be at least 16 moons before they can start expecting kits (this is the case for both of the spouses)

You can only have four kits per litter, and only five litters in a lifetime.

This applies to medicine cats as well, but they can only have three litters per lifetime.

Your cat cannot become evil or insane unless you have a very good reason (not because of a made-up backstory) and permission from two moderators

You are not allowed to k!ll or injure a character (even minor cuts and scrapes) without the role-player’s consent. If you are staging border skirmishes or one-on-one battles, you must ask!

If there is a big, all-clan battle or war, and you choose to participate, the death and injury of your character is no longer decided by you (as in: In a battle, whether someone k!lls or injures your character is up to them, and not you)

If you are signing up as a loner and they are kit-age, they must be a minimum of 4 moons or they won’t be able to survive on their own.

You can only receive an apprentice once you are at least 20 moons (this does not apply to medicine cats)

Reincarnation is allowed for cats who choose it, but you can only reincarnate your cat twice.

**Have fun! Enjoy yourselves! This is not meant to be overly strict, we just can’t have this falling apart. But really, we want you to join this so you can explore new plots and adventures, while still being your own warrior cat!**
