• There is to be no fighting outside of role play. Harassment of any kind will result in a temporary ban of all parties involved.

• There are to be no comments to offend anyone's race, religion or sexuality. Any comments like this will be removed immediately and will result in some heavy ban time. Be respectful to everyone else, as they are respectful to you.

• You may use explicit language, but try not to abuse this privilege. When posting out of character, swearing is to be kept to a minimum. Although we don't mind heavy language in role play. If you abuse your ability to swear, it will result in a warning by a staff member, or a ban. It all depends on how serious the offense is.

• You may make up to ten characters. After that, if you want to make another one, you must give one of your current dragons up for adoption. Once it is adopted out to another user, you may make another dragon.

• We currently have only two dragon species to choose from when making your profiles—European and Chinese. European is the most common, while Chinese are fairly rare. As a result, only three of your ten characters can be Chinese dragons.

• We do not have very high standards when creating profiles, but we do have requirements. You must only leave out parts labeled as optional. We expect at least five sentences for temperament, appearance and history, if you decide to include it. If temperament and appearance do not have at least five sentences, there is a fairly low chance of it being approved, unless your sentences are very descriptive.

• There is to be no god modding or power playing. No living thing has ever been invincible and won't be here. While you are not allowed to kill other dragons, no one is immune to being wounded in combat. No one is perfect, either. Everyone has their flaws. Also, in no way are you permitted to control another user's dragon. This takes all the fun out of playing and is not going to be tolerated. Power playing will result in a temporary ban.

• Only two dragons of the same species can mate. Meaning that only Europeans can mate with Europeans, so on and so forth.

• We can appreciate wanting to be literate and wanting to say more than just they mated, but please don't go into too much detail. Meaning, no key words associated with breeding. There is to be no force breeding, either.

• Dominate males rule over their clans. Although the dominate female has most of the powers the male does, she doesn't have as much control over the followers as her mate does. The male is also the only one that may start a war with another clan. Only males can accept challenges, as well.

• Clan wars must be held in the challenged clan's battleground. Battles between clans are generally fought by males, although there are occasionally a few females in the army. These types of fights can only be won when a dominate male calls his subordinates down, or if a staff member decides over one side. Clan battles are generally over territory, but can be over just about anything—prey, control, or just to prove a point.

• Killing another user's dragon is prohibited, even with permission. If you're wondering why, well, the answer is simple. You make a character. You work hard on its profile, are proud of it and start role playing with your new dragon right away, only to have it killed in the first topic you make. There are only two ways to win fights around here—have a staff member judge (which is usually done with major battles e.g. clan wars), or one opponent must back down (which is usually the case in small fights e.g. over a female).

• When creating a clan, you must have a dominate pair and at least five followers. Followers do not include your dominate female/male or yourself, nor your offspring. Followers must consist of full-grown dragons. Once you have enough followers, one of the dominates must send me a message with the names of the dominates, offspring (if there are any) and followers. The message must also include the name you want your clan to have.

• When making a dragon, there are a few key things you should know. The difference between European and Chinese is large. Europeans have the average dragon build. Their bodies are muscular, their small heads atop long, slender necks. Their tails are long, their wings are large and they can breathe fire. The most common colors for European are green, black and red. But they can also be white, blue, gray or purple. This is a good example of a European. Chinese dragons are much longer, with large heads mounted on small necks. Their bodies are slender, their legs short and they have no wings. Therefore they cannot fly. Nor can they breathe fire. The most common colors for Chinese dragons are green, red and blue. But they can also be purple, black, tan, white or even shades of pink. This is a good example of an average Chinese dragon.

• When two dragons have mated, they will produce a brood of one to three eggs, with two being the most common number. Once the dragons have bred, one of the parents is to send me a message with the name of the male and the name of the female. This must be sent to me and me only. I will post the status of your offspring in the statistics board. After I've done this, one of the parents' owners may create actual profiles for your hatchlings in the appropriate board, following my guidelines. Offspring are to be role played with their mother until they are a month old (actual time). At which point, an owner of one of the parents may make actual adult profiles for them and they may be role played individually. Either one of the parents may keep them, or put them up for adoption. They must be placed up for adoption if both parents already have ten dragons. If one of them does, they can be given to the one that does not.
