Rules of the roleplay!
THESE ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT ANY GIVEN TIME
I know there's a lot of rules, but please read them!


  • No power-playing
  • No god-modding
  • Respect the staff
  • Respect other users
  • Please no talk of sensitive topics/politics
  • You may only run ONE group at a time. You can be in multiple groups, but this is limited to ONE PER CHARACTER. You cannot be the leader of two groups, unless given permission by staff.
  • Keep your drama out of our space. This applies to IC and OOC drama as well. IC drama STAYS IC, and OOC drama stays to YOURSELF. If you have a problem with someone, speak to staff. Don't ruin everyone else's day.
  • Do not auto-hit when fighting, and don't dodge every move. Find balance between the two, and fight fair!
  • Ask the user's permission before killing a character.
  • Everyone is allowed 3 characters. No more than 3 without staff permission.
  • Cubs/Pups/Offspring CANNOT exist within the roleplay without parents. If you have a child character, they cannot wander around the map as orphans unless, realistically, they can support themselves and survive in the wild. Even then, you have a VERY slim chance of survival.
  • Swearing is allowed as long as it's not directed at anyone in a genuinely negative way
  • Please refrain from using words that might offend others
  • Wait 1 week before killing off a character. Once you've joined the roleplay, you must wait 1 irl week before your character can die.
  • Users are free to create their own groups/prides/etc WITH STAFF PERMISSION. Once you create a group, you can claim a den-site and create an official group post on the website. A group qualifies as any 2 or more individuals under a group name.
  • ONLY STAFF AND ELECTED OFFICIALS  MAY RECRUIT FOR THE ROLEPLAY. Staff may permit a few select users to advertise for us as well, but only they may recruit. Group leaders CANNOT recruit for their groups outside of the roleplay.
  • Group leaders recruit WITHIN THE ROLEPLAY ONLY. We ENCOURAGE you to gain new members by roleplaying with them, but we won't punish you for asking on the website or asking in group for people to join.
  • There is enough land in the map for EVERYONE. If the loner dens eventually run out, JOIN A GROUP.
  • DO NOT FIGHT OVER LAND. All dens are FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE. Whoever claims the den MUST be active at least once a week to keep the densite claimed, or else it goes back up for grabs. EVEN IF YOUR GROUP HAS 20+ MEMBERS, WHOEVER CLAIMED THE DEN MUST BE ACTIVE FOR YOU TO KEEP YOUR HOME. If they're not active, you go homeless.
  • THERE IS A 24 HR BUFFER PERIOD BETWEEN LAND CLAIMS. This means that if you lose your den, YOU CANNOT RECLAIM IT FOR ANOTHER 24 HOURS.
  • While our RP is realistic in behavior, we do allow some exclusions. An example being, species that do not normally group together, grouping together.
                    ex: Leopards are solitary, but a clan of leopards can form. Zebra are usually herd animals, but a lone zebra can exist (not for long though).
  • NSFW topics can and WILL happen in this group. If you cannot handle such topics of conversation, do not join this roleplay.
  • Staff have the final say in everything. 
  • Inter-species relationships are permitted, however they cannot and will not result in offspring if it's biologically impossible. 
                    ex: Lion x leopard can result in offspring. Lion x hyena cannot result in offspring.
  • Try not to create mary/gary-sues
  • We allow a little bit of creative liberty when it comes to the colors and patterns of your characters, but they MUST be realistic to some extent. This means no tiger-striped lions or spotted zebra. Melanism, piebald, erythrism, and albinism are just a few examples of color mutations we will allow on any species. PLEASE REFRAIN FROM USING SOLID 0,0,0 BLACK, OR SOLID GRAYS. PLEASE. Just because we allow it, doesn't mean EVERYONE has to have dark/gray lions. We WILL be limiting the amount of unrealistic color mutation/species combinations to a few approved characters. Let me repeat: YOU MUST BE APPROVED BEFORE YOU CAN CREATE AN UNREALISTIC/SEMI-REALISTIC COLOR MUTATION.
  • Rape, murder, incest, sexism, pedophilia and other sensitive topics may occur in-RP. Please be aware that these topics do not reflect the views of the roleplayers. Let me be clear: THESE TOPICS DO NOT REFLECT THE VIEWS OF THE ROLEPLAYERS. If you have an issue with any of the mentioned topics to the point of being unable to stand a roleplay that contains them, WE RECOMMEND NOT JOINING THIS ROLEPLAY.
  • NO ITEMS THAT CANNOT BE REALISTICALLY AND LOGICALLY EXPLAINED. If your worn items cannot be explained in a logical manner, they will not be permitted.
    "Demonicus, my melanistic lion, has his horns and shackles because he was a circus escapee! They made him wear this to make him look like Satan because he was so aggressive." No. This is not acceptable.
    "My lioness Jasiri wears a radio collar, put on her by environmental researchers. She's often embarrassed and avoided by other lions because of it." Good! This is acceptable.
    "My hyena Kubwa wears ear feathers because the first prey she ever caught was a bird, and her mother thought she looked pretty with them." A little bit unlikely but we'll accept it.
  • Again, we stress that this is a MATURE roleplay. We recommend no one under the age of 16 joins us, but if you'd like to join younger than that then we won't exclude you. HOWEVER, NONE OF THE STAFF OF THIS ROLEPLAY WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE CONTENT WITNESSED BY MINORS. We've provided plenty of warning. If you're uncomfortable with the roleplay or cannot maturely handle the topics, please feel free to leave.
  • One week IRL is one month in-game. Adults age a year every 2 months!
  • Do not give out the map download to ANYONE. The map was created by the roleplay creator and it would be FANTASTIC if you'd NOT be a jerk and keep the map private. Thanks.
  • Please be active! Once a week at the VERY LEAST.
  • Please be literate when roleplaying! We're a literate group, and we'd like it very much if you kept up the roleplaying with everyone else.
