Family Roleplay, Titles, and Seconds
Hi folks,
We've had a couple of questions come up recently on the subject of family / heritage roleplay, and I would like to clarify the following:
- Wearing the title of a noble house such as those of Djeir is allowed, with some caveats:
- Unless officially sanctioned, no one is obligated to recognise or accept this claim, and others may dispute it in character if they wish.
- This includes admin-driven roleplay: NPCs or other admin-driven characters are very likely to dispute these claims if they are raised in an appropriate in character context.
- Claiming to be a direct descendant of a royal line or claims of other disprovable heritage are not appropriate.
- It is never appropriate to have multiple characters as part of the same family.
- Referring to other characters as family members, or involving them in another character's roleplay at all is in breach of HELP SECONDS.
- HELP SECONDS has been updated to reflect this.
Feel free to reach out if you have any questions about this!
