Our Destiny Expectations

By joining Our Destiny Roleplay, you are agreeing to the following expectations. Please review them before joining.

Overall Expectations

Being Respectful
- We are a community made of people from all walks of life, respect is the number one priority. Treat others as you wish to be treated. This applies to both the site and discord. Any issues please bring to the attention of Admin

Age-approiate
- This is a warrior cat site primarily, it important to recognize that most of us are older than the intended audience. Keep content on the site at max PG-13. In addition to that, you agreed before joining to be over the age of 13. If it is found out you are younger, you will be asked to leave. Secondly, if you are a minor do not give out any personal information.

Unnecessary Drama
- Characters don't always get along, but that does not mean two members have to feel the same. Characters are often an extension of ourselves but not outright reflections. Please do not create drama for drama's sake.

Bannable Offense
- We have a zero-tolerance policy for bullying. If you are found to be harassing another member in public or in private you will be warned once then you will be banned, NO EXCEPTIONS. This includes badgering staff, complaining about rules, whining for high ranks, trying to control other player's characters

Activity
- Typical members are welcome to set their activity, high ranks players and staff agree to more activity for the sake of the roleplay and timing.

If you are inactive for 30 days without notification to staff or post in the absence board, all characters are named NPCs.

Currencey
- We use the term 'stones' for currency, they are earned to purchase items at the shop. They are earned from posting and replies.


Character Specific

Character Limit
- There is a current limit of 10 characters with character slots purchasable with the max being 20

All Natural
- Realistic colors and eye colors, concerning some gene realism for all characters. That means no horns, laser eyes, or dragon wings.

Character Age
- Characters age up in increments of 3 moons at a time.
0-3 Moons - newborn, not playable
3-6 Moons - kit, playable
7-20 Moons - adolescent, playable
21-70 Moons - adult, playable
71-125 Moons - elder, playable till death

Important note about age:
Normal Cats: 90-100

Deputies do not have a connection to StarClan and will die around 90-100 moons. 

Leaders can live until 115 max 

Medicine Cat until 125 max 

No babies having babies
- Characters can not have kits of their own unless they are at least 20 moons old

Cross-Clan Relationship
- Are forbidden and must be purchased at the site shop,

Mates & Kits
- The couple must be in at least three threads together before they can have kits and one thread in between litters if they decide to have a large family. Kits' health and the number is a rolled event.

Roll: d^6 - for total number of kits.
Roll: d^6 - for each kit's health [1-4 health, 5 ill, 6, stillborn]
Roll: d^6 - for mother's health post kitting [1-4 healthy, 5 ill, 6, close to death very ill]

ex:
Player roles for their cat Rosethorn to have kits. They roll 4, there will be four kits in the litter. The player rolls for kit one and gets a 5, the kit is born ill. The player rolls for kit two and gets 6, the kit is stillborn, and so on.

You can purchase healthy litter from the shop


Roleplay Specific

Calendar System
- We have a calendar system in place for player ease, there are also sections to roleplay out of the main timeline, in most roleplay boards please respect the system in place.

No Godmodding or Powerplaying
- You can not control anyone else's character without their permission and even then it must be minor. Please be openminded about editing posts if a roleplay partner feels you moved their character too much.

Knowledge
- Certain cats will have more knowledge about StarClan or medicinal herbs, please keep it realistic, as a member you might know a lot about the world, but it makes for more believable characters if they only know the information they have been told or learned.

Fighting & Death
- Our Destiny has the potential to be fairly violent at the start, we leave the outcome to fights, battles, and even wars to the discussion of the players. If you sacrifice a character for the sake of the plot, you can be rewarded.

Word Count
- There is not an outright limit on posts, we do ask that you aim for a 150-word minimum.

Claims
- It is up to the player to post in the correct claim and update pages in a timely fashion or risk their character being removed/become an NPC
_{-pm admin your favorite color and get a second bonus bundle of stones}

NPC Characters
- Are at the full mercy of staff members, most will be fodder for plot threads.


Canon Claims

Relationship
- These cats are NOT related to the characters in the book. The events predating Our Destiny take place generations after the events of the second series. The events of the third series of books are considered alternate universe to this roleplay site.

Character Driven
- Certain locations are up for grabs to claim and explore, which can lead to the creation of territory for a clan. There is a simple claim system in place.





Expectations are subject to change and a record will be kept below when they are changed. If you have read all everything, you can PM Admin to obtain a bundle of stones.
