In Character Roles

• Canon characters found in the books, including family relations. No one is the son of Tarl Cabot, or Rask of Treve, or the daughter of Verna etc.
• The Spider People and Kur can only be introduced as NPCs with staff approval. Story lines that reference either character type must also be approved by Staff.
• The Urt People will not be permitted in play here.
• Pygmy characters will not be permitted in play here.
• Initiate Characters are allowed, but they will not be High Initiates.
• Priest Kings characters will not be played here.
• Staff retain the right to restrict or ban other roles as they see fit.

Typists

The following individuals will be removed if they attempt to enter our spaces and engage in our stories:

• The typist of ABA/Senua {Alriax} and any other name they go by.
• The typist of Ban and any other name they go by.
• The typist of Sioran/Nyx and any other name they go by.
• The typist of Kasigi Omi/Dhal Al Ghur and any other name they go by.

Mirror Bans

• Characters based in rooms that have banned any writer based in Minus will not be permitted to rp in our spaces. This is due to our room/characters being limited in counter reactions should rp turn hostile or serious. As an example, if a raid were to occur our room would be limited in its ability to counter raid with full member participation. However, players behind those characters are not banned and are welcome to create other characters to play in Minus as part of the MPG format.
  
  
• Anyone who has put a public Ignore Notice/C&D on any player writing in Minus and its adjoining locations is not welcomed. This is to ensure the enjoyment and comfort of those who have made these locations their roleplay home.

Unwelcome Players & Activities

• Players with a history of problematic behaviours in the community will not be welcomed in our spaces. These behaviours include: known abusers, known bigots, players with a consistent history of harassment, players who frequently ghost RP partners/abandon characters in our spaces, players who frequently Meta-Game/Force Post/God Mode, players known to use roleplay to hunt for romantic relationships, and individuals who attempt to control players or roleplay using OOC coercion & threats. [Example: "If you don't do ____ I will kill your character." [or] "If you ask to have your slave character released I will kill them." [or] "If you play with (player x) I am leaving."]
• Players writing or making reference to underage sex of any kind. Our characters will only engage in sexual activity with characters 18 and older.
• Writing incestuous relationships is not permitted. While we are inspired by elements of Game of Thrones, that is one area we will not be drawing from. Leave it out of our space.
• Players trying to force random deaths in roleplay and primarily targeting noncombatants without reason because "Gor is unfair, Gor is savage etc". We believe character death should make sense in a story and be rare occurrences. That's what makes them exciting or shocking.
• Players who consistently challenge characters, or frequently tempt fate in roleplay while expecting to avoid consequences, or even just skip out on them. We are big proponents of consent in roleplay, but every roleplay action will have a reaction. If you cannot handle this then do not attempt anything hostile, scandalous, or life altering in our settings.
• Players with a history of being antagonistic or even passive aggressive towards staff attempting to mediate OOC disagreements or enforce room/site rules. Staff moderating a roleplay setting should not be taken as a personal attack and as such we will not tolerate abuse for simply doing our jobs.
• Players who have shown a general unwillingness to function respectfully in a diverse group setting are not welcomed. This includes inability to separate IC from OOC, unwilling to respect player limits and consent, or keep personal beliefs, politics, and religion out of fantasy roleplay settings.
