Q: Where is the shop? How do I access it to buy items?
A: The shop is located in #bot-commands. It is accessed by typing !shop in the chat. You can use !work to earn money to use in the shop, or you can rp in rp channels and earn income that way.
Q: If I make a hybrid do I have to buy a mutation item as well?
A: If the mutation is occurring because the dragon is a hybrid, then no.
Q: Can I make a high rank? How do I know if it's open?
A: Yes, you can! If a rank is open, it'll say in the allegiances. However, you need permission from the Ruler of a tribe if you want to make a royal or high rank.
Q: What IceWing gifts are still around?
A: Currently, the IceWing gifts that exist in this server are: The Gift of Elegance, Healing, Light, Order, Splendor, Stealth, Strength, Sustenance, and Vision.
Q: How does aging work?
A: Since following real time would take too long for characters to age, the aging works a little differently in this server. So, every month in real life is equal to two months in roleplay. The full age chart can be found pinned in #character-help.
Q: How many high rank characters can I have?
A: In the rules, it states you're allowed to have up to 3 royals. This does not include the Ruler, which is a limit of one (unless it happens through roleplay/inheritance). However, you may have 3 other high ranks as well, which are outlined in the next question.
So, you may have, for example: 2 princesses and 1 prince (3 royals), 1 queen (1 ruler), and 1 animus dragon and 2 royal healers (3 other high ranks).
Q: What counts as a high rank?
A: At the moment, the current high ranks are: Any SeaWing/HiveWing Council position, animus dragons, Sanctuary Overseers, first circle IceWings, royal guards, royal healers, royal healer apprentices, and royal advisors.
Q: Does this server have an age conversion chart? How do I convert human years to dragon years?
A: Yes! You can find it in #character-help, the conversion chart is pinned there.
Q: I left the server but came back. Can I have my old ocs back?
A: Unless you gave a staff member a heads up that you were leaving for a specific period of time, then no. You may remake old ocs, but you will have to repurchase items for them and resubmit them.
Q: Can my character have an animus enchanted item from the past?
A: You'll need to ask staff for permission beforehand and there must be a logical reasoning for the enchantment. As of right now they are closed, but current animus dragons are still able to enchant items. The skyfire counts as a past enchantment so characters may not have a piece of it.
Q: How long does it take to get a character reviewed?
A: Reviews are sent out every Friday to give members the weekend to introduce their characters to rp. To ensure your character is accepted without any issue, please make sure to thoroughly read over our website and to fill out everything on the template.
Q: Can my character attend Jade Mountain Academy?
A: Yes! JMA has been officially implemented, and you can create a character to attend.
Q: Why can't my character have a feather on their head or behind their ear?
A: Please give this document a read: Feather Issue Doc
If you still have any questions after please don't hesitate to reach out to staff!
Q: Why can't I send images?
A: For the safety of our members, and due to past incidents, users without characters can not send images. You will have permission to send images once you create a character.
Q: Are dark topics allowed?
A: Cannibalism or dark cults are not allowed. Psychopathy is allowed but only through the disability submission process of the receiving OC which will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
Q: Are substance use allowed?
A: Alcohol or drug usage in any form is not allowed.
Q: Where can I see if (name) is open?
A: The allegiances page on this website (under the roleplay section at the top) is where you can see if a name is taken!
Q: How long do I have to use a giveaway item once received? Can I ask for an extension?
A: Once your giveaway is assigned, you have one month to use it. You may ask for another month extension but only once.
Q: Can I use two shop items on the same character?
A: No, you can't, unless one of those shop items was won from a giveaway. The limit for items per character is: 1 giveaway item, 1 shop item, 1 hybrid/tribrid, 1 mutation item (3 individual mutations).
Q: What is age versus updated age on the template?
A: During submission, both of these will be the same. Updated age is where you can update your character's age as they age in the server. The ages are automatically updated on the allegiances, which can be found under roleplay info at the top of the website.
Q: Can we include high ranking NPCs in a character's backstory?
A: Yes, only if they are from over a decade ago irp and are deceased.
