Rules

Arcovia is a high conflict political role-play sim. It is not suited for those who are looking for low conflict slice of life roleplay. The imagined character is one who is an agent in service to a chosen city-state's small council. These agents will be expected to scheme and manipulate to get valuable and necessary intelligence. With that said, please note a few basic things.

Foundlings and Slaves

While we do not encourage players to choose either foundlings or slave, we acknowledge that many people enjoy background characters and wish to participate in scenes without the added challenge of being a key player. Consequently, we ask players to give those playing foundlings or slaves a break when it comes to high conflict role-play. That is not to say anyone should be given free rein nor should they be able to avoid role-play consequences, only that those playing agents should recognize that the role is intended to be supportive.

Don't be a Dick

As so famously said by Wil Wheaten, Don't be a dick. This should be obvious by now -- no one wants to play with someone else who is being an OOC jerk. Treat all other role-players with respect and courtesy -- regardless of your personal religious, political, or role-play styles.

General Role-Play Etiquette

We assume everyone is a reasonably experienced role-play and understands such terms as god-modding, power-gaming, superman role-play, metagaming, etc.
