Rules and Regulations of The Five Countries Major RP!

Role Playing in the Major RP:
-The only character you can control, is the character your username represents. Controlling other characters is strictly against the rules. You may only post as your character! PLEASE don't speak on another character's behalf.
-Please keep the RP as realistic as possible. In other words, you may not just march in and kill a village Lord, unless you are at the same power level. Also, you can not kill a person of the equal power level in a single post, it will be a fair fight in which both sides have a chance of losing. Even if you fight someone a bit weaker, try not to god mod. The first three times, a kind warning will be issued, if it persists, depending on the level, action may be taken.
-Please make the fights you are involved in within this RP entertaining. In other words, put in details, don't god mod, and try to make the fight at least 5 paragraphs or 2 posts, depending on the power level of the enemy.
-You must have at least post 2 paragraphs (5 to 10 sentences) every post.
-You can only be involved in one thread (a single RP) at a time!
-If your character dies, there is no revival, so, if he dies, you must register another character in the character registry, and redo everything. Note that the only way your character can die is WITH YOUR PERMISSION! If anyone posts a death scene for your character without your permission, PM me and I'll deal with it.
-This RP will follow a turn based system, with the order being the order of the people who PM me to enroll for the missions! This will not be a free posting RP. (Unless the thread is a non-mission thread)

Background and Setting Rules:
-To cross oceans, seas, and other forms of water, you MUST go on a boat, fly over it (Wind country), or walk over the water (Water Country), etc...
-To make the RP more realistic, you must be prepared to the village, area, or country you are going to. For example, if you are going to the Ice village, you must be prepared to wear a HEAVY jacked, or you may freeze to death. To the Fire Country, you could get a hear stroke if you don't wear the proper items.
-The Five Countries is based in a completely different world, and around the prehistoric era. There are different laws, cultures, and history within these countries. Therefore, please try to stick within the boundaries of the setting as much as possible.
-Teleporting is not allowed as an ability, you can only walk, swim, dig, fly, and run, (if you have another idea of transportation, post it in your character's abilities, and I'll see if it is allowed)! I repeat, Teleportation can not be a special ability!

Stats and technique Rules:
-After you complete a mission, PM me (it can be on the RP board), with the thread of the completed mission, and the stats you wish to increase. And, if you unlock it, the technique you wish to learn.
-To avoid cheating, a moderator or admin will be monitoring every mission, and when the mission is complete, all details about things people can get will be PMed to me. So, if you try to cheat and put stats you don't deserve, or add a technique thinking the staff wont realize, you'll get stats deducted, and a technique removed. Cheating will not be tolerated.

Shop Rules:
-After checking out the item you wish to purchase in a shop, PM me (it can be on the RP board), with the item you wish to purchase.
-Shop attendants will view your gold and make sure you don't try to buy something you don't have enough gold for, so don't try to cheat.

Passport System:
-To change your location, you must update your profile and select the country/ area you are currently in.
-Do not change your passport to the area you are heading towards, always keep it to the area you are at!
-Again, passport monitors will be watching in the event that you try to instantly zap yourself somewhere, so DON'T try to take a shortcut.
-While walking to your destination for a mission, the thread will be moved every time you enter a new area (be it another village or island), and when it is moved, you will be required to update your passport.
-You MAY roam the world on your own, just try to keep your passport updated.

Out of Character Rules:
-Note that a seperate forum will be made for Out of Character discussions, and things such as skipping inactive members can be discussed there, so do not discuss it in the actual thread!
-If a member falls inactive, if three fourths of the people in the thread agree, that member's turn will be skipped. Note that skipped turns can NOT be made up for.

Inactivity:
-We all have lives, and must move away from the computer sometimes, if this happens to you, please put the 'Inactive' option in your passport, to symbolize that you'll be inactive, and you can do anything your life dictates.
-If you fall inactive during the middle of the mission, and leave without a notice, your character may be ejected from the mission. This means that no matter how many posts you have made in the mission thread, you will recieve no reward upon the completion of the mission, and you will automatically reload at Samarat, or your village, depending on the setting you put in the 'Inactivity' part of your profile.
-If you fall inactive in the middle of a mission, but notify your comarades you will be inactive, you may select a member to take control of your character until your return (note: this option is only available if you will be inactive for at most a week. If you'll be inactive for more than a week, you'll forfeit the mission.)
-Finally, please try to come on daily, since it can be annoying waiting for an offline member during the RP.
