CHARACTERS

[/size]
----------------[/center]

1 - please follow the form that is posted up, it is there for a reason.
2 - the roleplay example that is required is only needed for the first character.
3 - character logs are where you keep track of all your characters in one thread. it is not required that you have one, just preferred.
4 - please only have one character per thread in the creation board. it helps keep up with who has what character and what name.

POSTING
----------------

1 - post must be at least 200 words. more is nice, but not required.

BREEDING&BIRTHING
----------------

1 - no graphic breeding or birthing what so ever. it is highly against proboards TOS and it will result in your account being deleted.
2 - there are not set lands for breeding, mating, or birting. it happens anywhere in real life and it shall be the same on here.
3 - please post in the Stork Department board to have your litter made.
4 - people who can make litters are: Amaya, Akaine, and Smudge.
5 - just remember, that just like in real life puppies born outside in the colder months have a lower chance of survival.
6 - if your character is pregnant you have the choice to play out the pregnancy, fast forward to the birth, or fast forward to where the pups are a couple of months. Just let the rpers of the pups know what is going on.
7 - all pups from the same litter age at the same time.

FIGHTING&CHALLENGES
----------------

1 - at this point in time fights are not judged, this may changed if we are given a reason for it to change.
2 - you may NOT kill another persons dog without the other persons permission.
3 - no power playing or god modeling.
4 - please note that in all fights dogs get hurt, it is very rare for a dog to be able to fight fairly and well without getting a few minor injuries. You can not dodge every attack!
5 - You can challenge for anything, whether it be land, a mate, or ect...
6 - Unlike fights, challenges are judged by the staff. If the staff is unable to reach a final decision than it gets polled and voted on by the members.
7 - When challengeing for a territory the alpha/alphess has a week (seven days) to respond and if they fail to do so the land then belongs to the challenger.
8 - If the alpha does not respond in two days, the beta then has the right to step up and fight the challenger for the land. If the Beta wins then the Beta has the choice to a) keep it as his or her own. or B) let the alpha/alphess control over the land still.
9 - In the event that one of the judges that have been selected to judge fights get in one, the person in the fight can not judge the fight, one of the other selected judges must judge it.

ALLOWED&BANNED BREEDS
----------------

All members of the Canidae family are welcome here! If you have any questions about if something qualifies or not then please message a member of staff so we can help you sort it out.
