Rules & Information

Before reading the rules, study the definitions commonly used in roleplay listed below. These may be mentioned by staff members or players. If you choose to not abide by the rules, you will face punishment either by a warn, kick, or ban.

Rules that are in the colour red are either important or can lead to severe punishment.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

1.4 Metagaming: Exchanging and revealing in character information through any contact out of character in order to gain advantage in a roleplay situation.​
1.5 Powergaming: The act of forcing your actions upon another player without referring to the combat rules. This can also be applied to controlling another character's action without their permission.​
1.6 Godmodding: The act of your character having superhuman strength, dodging every single attack, or possessing supernatural powers that humans are not intended to have, is also not allowed on the server.​
1.7 FailRP: Anything unrealistic and unachievable can be classified as FailRP. This can also be considered when OOC certain principles are brought into roleplay.​
1.8 AvoidRP: The act of avoiding a roleplay situation by running without action, staying in a safe zone, or logging off to avoid the situation.​

1.12 Void: Forcing an IC situation to no longer exist. This can only be done if a rule is broken.​
1.13 F2B (Fade to Black): Fading to black is the action of skipping roleplay. This can be done in order to save time if nobody wishes to fully roleplay out the scenario. This can typically only be done with consent from all sides of the party.​
1.14 Gangs: A group of people who engage in criminal activity (this includes people who are related to each other).​
1.15 P2L (Play To Lose) / Honour: The servers most common form of participating in combat roleplay.

──────────────────────────────────────────​

5 – ROLEPLAY RULES

5.1 Do not metagame. This is the act of using out-of-character information to your in-character advantage, regardless of your character not knowing said details. Questions such as “can you meet me at spawn?” are not deemed as metagame​
5.1a You cannot use In-Character items to communicate Out-Of-Character. This includes book and quills, or any type of phone.​
5.2 Do not use emoticons in-character — the only exception is through the in-game texting feature (/text).​
5.3 You cannot perform erotic roleplay. Actions that are NSFW or describe inherently erotic actions are against the rules and can result in severe punishment.
5.3a Erotic roleplay includes “erotic literature,” meaning you cannot enter anything that details something NSFW in the in-game Book and Quills, or on our In-Character Social Media platform.
5.3b Do not reference/mention/act on any sensitive content through your character; this includes necrophilia, paedophilia, bestiality, cannibalism, sexual assault/domestic violence/harassment/****, or extensive gore (heavily detailed violence that is discomforting).
5.3c In relation to sensitive content, do not detail any roleplay related to overdosing, suicide, or self-harm.
5.4 Phones cannot record calls; the only way this is possible is if a third-party device was recording said interaction on the phone, e.g. another phone.​
5.4a If your character is recording something, video or audio, the phone must remain out at all times. You must do an action that starts the recording and take screenshots throughout the duration of the recording.​
5.5 You may not avoid roleplay interactions, commonly referred to as AvoidRP on the server (also FailRP). Logging off to avoid detention, suspension, an arrest, or refusing to log on if another person has permissions on your character, or using a different character to avoid permissions are all examples of avoiding roleplay.
5.5a If someone has permissions on your character, you must log on for at least one OOC hour for the allotted time that the permissions are granted for (seven days). The only exception to this is consented kill permissions, in which the person consenting can decide the length of the permissions.​
5.5b Expulsion, suspension, detention, arrests, detaining, and manhunt are all examples of interactions you cannot log off during. More information on the length you must stay online for after committing a crime is in the Criminal Roleplay section.​
5.6 You must roleplay realistically to the potential consequences or interactions your characters will have. This is commonly referred to as FearRP on the server (also FailRP). Your character must be fearful of certain detrimental outcomes in situations.
5.6a Examples of FearRP you may see in the school are obeying a teacher, an employee, a council member, or any of the Senior Leadership Team (Dean, Principal, etc.) when told to do something, not wanting detentions/suspensions/expulsions, and properly roleplaying as an actual student in the school environment.​
5.6b Examples of FearRP you may see related to crime are being fearful of weapons (including police officers’ Glock-17 and tasers), roleplaying realistically in the face of several gang members (armed or not armed), and obeying KPD/EMS when they give directions, and behaving in government buildings.​
5.6c FearRP is a loose concept and may not apply to all roleplay situations, meaning it is generally dependent on the people roleplaying to do so realistically. Staff members are free to make any decisions related to FearRP as long as they are compliant with the rules above and are realistic.​
5.7 Voiding can only be done if a rule is broken. Staff members have the ability to void a situation regardless of a majority vote.​
5.7a In reference to a majority vote, if the majority of a group votes to void a situation for a valid reason such as an instance of staff-confirmed rule breaking or other OOC reasons, then the situation is voided.​
5.7b Regardless of if an action or situation is voided, it may still be eligible for punishment.​
5.7c You may fade to black (F2B) certain actions​
5.7d You cannot use your own rule-breaking as a reason to void a situation you are involved in.​
5.8 All students and faculty must be on school grounds during school hours.
5.9 Do not apply all real life principles to the roleplay universe. Karakura is a fictional island separate from Japan that has traditions and ideals that may differ from present-day, real-life Japan.​
5.10 Rank perks (gadgets, models, etc.) cannot be used in roleplay, this includes disrupting other player's roleplay.​
5.11 When roleplaying any kind of disorder or handicap, players must do so appropriately. Anything deemed inappropriate or offensive will result in punishment.​
5.12 When using a profile with an Animal Whitelist, you must follow the same rules as a human, alongside all rules under this sub-section. Failure to comply with any of the rules can lead to the whitelist being removed.
5.12a Animals cannot speak or communicate in Japanese (or any other human language).​
5.12b An Animal cannot join a Gang or participate in a Gang's Activity.​
5.12c Animals cannot enter combat unless they have IC motive and they must follow all existing combat rules and permission requirements that apply to them.​
5.12d Certain types of Animals cannot leave their designated locations (e.g. a fish/dolphin cannot leave water, and a bear must stay inside of the forest).​
5.12e Animals must use their designated rolling amounts seen under rule 4.7, these are based off of the general size of the Animal.​

──────────────────────────────────────────​

6 – COMBAT RULES

6.1 All combat on SchoolRP is turn-based. (The only exception is mentioned in 6.3b and 6.3c, and it is expected that these Combat Rules are followed under all circumstances).​
6.1a Refer to the seventh section, Combat Roleplay, for guidelines and other specific rules related to roleplaying combat situations.​
6.1b Note that later in this section, other information and details about turn-based combat will be stated.​
6.2 Currently, SchoolRP utilizes two types of combat that is roleplayed on the server: P2L (Play 2 Lose) and traditional rolling.​
6.2a P2L, all parties involved agree to fight without the need to roll, towards either a predetermined ending or something all parties can agree upon. Fights are to remain realistic & enjoyable for both sides.​
6.2b Rolling, or “/roll,” is the other ideal way of interaction roleplay, mostly in combat. Opposed to a mutually agreed scenario, players are to roll based on their role or age — the player with the highest roll is successful with their actions & attacks and the combat progresses from there.​
6.2c In addition to rolling in roleplay having the purpose noted above, /roll is a necessity for turn-based combat and determining whose turn it is and when it is (refer to 6.3 for more information).​
6.2d If both parties do not agree to P2L their interaction or combat situation, rolling is made as the default and both sides must comply with /roll.​
6.3 If P2L is not utilized in a combat situation, players of a party must /roll for initiative in the turn-based system to determine who goes when in combat.
6.3a Players must roll out of their designated amounts (listed in 4.6) before a combat situation begins to determine the order of turns. An example is listed below in the spoiler.
6.3b One of two exceptions to the rule above is if the fight is 1v1, meaning one player versus one other player, where the “element of surprise” still exists and no rolling prior to starting the fight is necessary.
6.3c The other exception to 6.3a is if the fight is 4v1, where all turn-based combat reverts to party-based and the lone member of the latter party is forced to P2L the opposing party’s actions.
6.3d In any other combat situation with rolling for initiative (e.g. 2v1, 3v1, 2v3, etc.), rounds will be determined by whoever rolls the highest goes first and so-on in a sequential order. Again, an example is listed below in the spoiler.
6.3a & 6.3d

NOTE:
Player A’s character is 18 years old, Player B’s character is 18 years old, and Player C’s character is 17 years old.

PLAYER A: /looc Player B and I are about to fight your character, let’s all roll before we do any action
PLAYER A: /roll 150
(RESULT: 138 out of 150)
PLAYER B: /roll 150
(RESULT: 51 out of 150)
PLAYER C: /roll 100
(RESULT: 89 out of 100)

(THE ORDER FOR COMBAT IS: A, C, B. THE FIGHT PROCEEDS NORMALLY AFTERWARD)
6.4 A player cannot interfere with a combat situation unless a turn in combat has been completed. This does not apply to P2L combat situations.​
6.5 If you are assisting another player with an action, you must specify in a detailed and realistic manner what you are assisting them with. Failure to do so will result in the action being voided and a potential punishment.
6.5a If you are assisting and within a combat situation using the turn-based system, assisting counts as one of your turns.
6.6 Your character cannot recognize another character based off of mundane features such as attire, hair color, height, etc.
6.6a Because there are many means of figuring out another person’s identity, this is also a loose rule that a staff member may override a decision for depending on the situation.​
6.7 If you are in a defined public zone, you are forbidden to equip an illegal weapon, use Kill permissions, or use Major Assault permissions. You may still use Kidnap and/or Minor Assault permissions inside of a public zone. See the spoiler below for a list of defined public zones.
6.7a Intentionally staying inside of a public zone or walking into a public zone to avoid combat during roleplay is considered AvoidRP result in punishment.
DEFINED PUBLIC ZONES:
1.
Any open shop is considered a public zone.
2. Active event areas are considered public zones, unless announced otherwise
3. The public 'Jinsei Zen Garden' is considered a public zone.
4. Certain areas of Spawn is considered a public zone, see the image below:

6.8 Your character's face must be visible on your Minecraft skin before engaging in combat (If you wish to hide your face, you must use a mask item).

──────────────────────────────────────────​

7 – CRIMINAL ROLEPLAY
7.1 Criminal roleplay is designated as any kind of roleplay that violates the Karakura Law ordained by the city’s government and police force. In other words, criminal roleplay references anything illegal that your character can do.​
7.1a This does not include combat roleplay (mentioned in the section below) as although it violates law, it is also classified as fighting.​
7.1b Players who have a green tag (Grades 7 to 9) cannot participate in criminal roleplay by any means. Other players cannot interact with players of this role with the intention of causing crimes or interfering with police on either parties. This excludes fighting.​
7.1c The only limitation to players who have a green tag (Grades 7 to 9) fighting is that they may not knock out another player.​
7.1d Being involved in gangs in any way is also considered criminal roleplay.​
7.2 You may only have one character and one account in a gang (refer to terminology for what a gang is).
7.2a If you were a part of gang in any way and have died/been arrested and lost that character, you cannot re-join or be involved with fighting with the same gang for two OOC days.
7.2b Upon committing a crime or being man-hunted, you must remain online for at least 45 OOC minutes. If you wish to change outfits, you may use the /wardrobe.
7.2c Verified and unverified gangs are capped to having a maximum of 35 members inside their gang.
7.3 If you are in a safezone, you cannot engage in criminal roleplay.
7.3a The monastery, and school grounds are all considered safezones. You cannot gain major assault permissions or killing permissions in these areas; however, you can gain minor assault permissions and mugging permissions in these safezones.​
7.3b In correlation to the previous rule, scamming is allowed in these safe zones & you are allowed to act on any minor assault permissions or mugging permissions in these places.​
7.3c Weapons are also considered as criminal roleplay and may not be held inside safe zones.​
7.3d Whilst in combat, you cannot enter a safezone.​
7.4 Weapons used in criminal roleplay have certain limitations and statistics that players should take note of when using them. Failing to comply with the Weapon Profiles may result in punishment.​
7.5 CCTV are cameras around the map that police, shop owners, and gang turf managers have access to. The exterior parts of any buildings are accessible by police, whereas any of the cameras within the properties of shop owners and gang turf managers are accessible by those roles respectively.​
7.5a Shop owners and gang turf managers may also manipulate the footage on said CCTV.​
7.5b Police are able to check interior buildings’ CCTV upon requesting access from the property owner; however, they will not be able to see any manipulated footage.​
7.5c A police officer must be present at the CCTV desk in the police station when requesting CCTV on a character. The police officer must have a proper motive (such as a report) to use CCTV.​
7.6 One party may only mug/loot a total of 5,000 yen from an individual if they are choosing to mug/loot money.
7.6a You can only take weapons/masks used in the current combat situation from someone if you are choosing to loot/mug them. Any other items you wish to take must be consented upon OOCly.
7.6b In relation to the previous rule, you are allowed to take items that were scammed of you or the money you were scammed of in return.
7.6c Custom items/vehicles can't generally be mugged. The only exception to this are items that can be utilised for specifically for criminal roleplay (phones, weapons, masks, etc.).
7.7 You may only break into someone's property if you have major assault permissions.
7.8 Staff members have the ability to blacklist a person from engaging in criminal roleplay for a certain amount of time.​

──────────────────────────────────────────​

8 – COMBAT ROLEPLAY

8.1 Combat roleplay is designated as any kind of roleplay that includes fighting — not killing or lethal use of weaponry (e.g. carvings, fatal stab wounds).​
8.1a All players can engage in combat roleplay regardless of their role; however, there are limitations to criminal roleplay.​
8.2 Copying and pasting actions is permitted on the server; however, keybinds are discouraged. If you accidentally use a keybind, you cannot void the action as it would violate the rules related to voiding actions. Please reference Combat Rules for turn-based combat and how it should be properly roleplayed out.​
8.3 You may not spawn in vehicles or teleport away during pursuits/chases. This is considered FailRP.​
8.3a You may not use a vehicle to kill another person. This is Vehicle Deathmatch (VDM) and is against the rules.​
8.4 Any actions must be an “attempt” and cannot control another character’s reactions. The only exception to this rule is P2L combat being agreed upon prior in OOC by both parties.​
8.5 You cannot bait (unfairly encourage & try to lure someone) another player into giving your character permissions of any kind. Examples of baiting are targeting new players, planning a certain attack OOC without any in-character preparation, behaving a certain way in-character based off of OOC motive to create an outcome of the “baiter” gaining permissions.​
8.5a You cannot bait police officers into leaving the station by purposely luring them out of the station by committing a crime (e.g. wearing a mask and using a weapon in front of the police station). This is a loose rule, however, a staff member is free to decide whether or not a certain action baits a police officer.​
8.6 You may only have kidnap/mug/assault/consented kill permissions on another player for one OOC week (7 days, starting from the time that the permissions are received).​
8.7 If you are knocked out, you must remain in this unconscious state for five OOC minutes (start a timer from the moment your character is knocked out).
8.8 You cannot create “DIY weapons” such as flamethrowers made from water guns or molotovs/sharp blades from beer bottles.
8.9 If a player is stabbed (and the weapon has been removed from where they are stabbed), they have ten OOC minutes (start a timer from the moment that the bleeding out process begins) to receive help from EMS before the character dies (if kill permissions have been consented).​
8.9a If a player is stabbed, Police Officers and Hospital Staff can add an additional five minutes on the "bleedout timer" if a med kit is administered and pressure is applied to the wound.​
8.10 You must have an in-character reason to pull out/hold a weapon in an outdoor public space (e.g. using permissions, threatening another character, etc.).

──────────────────────────────────────────​

9 PERMISSIONS

9.1 To act on any permissions, a valid in-character motive must be present.​
9.1a Common sense: Although “crazed” behavior is allowed, a character being “insane” is not a valid reason to act on gained permissions above minor assault permissions.​
9.1b Punishment: Fear of getting caught should also be present; your character should not attempt to kill someone or act on permission if they are likely to be caught.​
9.2 Your character will obtain any permissions that their fellow gang members have obtained if they witnessed the situation.​
9.2 When minorly assaulting someone, the full extent of your assault is knocking someone out. You may only use weapons that can knock out for minor permissions. Below are examples of in-character motives for minor assault.​
9.2a Threats: When threatened by a group/individual, making claims that they will kill you or negatively impact a member of your gang/family, you are permitted to minorly assault them.​
9.2b Minor Assault: If someone physically attacks your character, you may retaliate with minor assault.​
9.2c Scamming/Theft: If someone attempts to scam/mug any sum of money or item from you, you may minorly assault them.​
9.2d Calling The Police: If someone reports your character to the police and you get fined, you may minorly assault the person who reported. You do not receive permissions if the character who called the police was simply doing their job (such as an EMS or school employee).​
