🌿 Wylderun Community Code of Conduct

Welcome, traveler, to Wylderun — a realm of wonder, imagination, and storytelling.
To keep this enchanted glade safe and thriving, all who enter are asked to honor the following tenets. These are more than rules — they are the threads that bind our shared world in trust, respect, and creativity.

🕯️ 1. Age Requirement: Grown Folk Only

Wylderun is a space for adult creators.
You must be at least 18 years old to join. By entering, you affirm that you meet this requirement. No exceptions, no magical aging potions.

🚫 2. Forbidden Lore: No Underage Content

Wylderun is a haven for mature fantasy and creative freedom — but one boundary is absolute:

No content involving underage or underage-presenting characters, in any form or context.

This includes, but is not limited to:

Characters under 18
Characters who appear under 18, regardless of stated age
Chibi or stylized art with youthful features
“Technically 18” characters in school settings, uniforms, or anything implying adolescence
De-aged versions of characters
Any content — sexual, non-sexual, narrative, or otherwise — that features, focuses on, or involves a minor in any capacity

Even the mention of children in character lore, worldbuilding, or backstory may result in moderator action. Wylderun is strictly for adult-only content and characters — please do not include children in your creations here at all.

This rule applies regardless of artistic intent, creative framing, or genre.
Violations may result in permanent account removal without warning.

When in doubt, ask a moderator. We’re here to help you stay within the bounds of Wylderun’s storytelling principles.

🦊 3. Roleplay Guidelines: The Art of the Tale

Respect Roleplay Boundaries
Every story is a shared journey — and no journey thrives without trust. Consent is as vital as a dragon’s roar, and no tale is worth telling if someone feels cornered, coerced, or uncomfortable.

Always communicate clearly with your writing partners. Discuss your character dynamics, preferred tone, limits, and desired outcomes.
Don’t pressure anyone into uncomfortable scenes, themes, or character pairings. If someone says “no” or seems hesitant, that means stop and re-evaluate.
Fade to black when needed. Explicit content must be mutually agreed upon. If your partner isn’t sure, don’t push it.
Respect content limits — both in themes and tone. Some members may be into darker or more mature storytelling, others may not. Tailor the experience to those involved.
Keep IC and OOC separate. Just because characters have a bond (or conflict) doesn't mean the same applies to the writers. Don’t confuse story tension for real-life drama.
Back out gracefully. If a scene or story isn’t working, it's okay to say so — but communicate it. Ghosting or passive-aggressiveness isn’t the way of the wyld.

In Wylderun, characters may fight demons, kiss strangers, or burn down villages — but none of that should happen unless everyone involved is on board.

🍃 4. Conduct Among Kinfolk

Be Kind, Not a Chaos Gremlin: Harassment, hate speech, or toxic behavior won’t be tolerated.
No Spam or Off-Topic Promotions: Keep your content relevant to Wylderun.
Respect the Peacekeepers: Moderators are guides, not enemies. If spoken to, respond with curiosity — not combat.

🔮 5. The Watchful Wardens

🧿 Reports Are Reviewed

All reports are reviewed. For privacy reasons, we don’t disclose outcomes — even to those who filed them.

👁️ Moderators Aren’t Omnipresent

Mods aren’t online 24/7. Your reports help keep Wylderun safe and weird — and we appreciate it.

🚫 False or Frivolous Reports

Reports meant to harass or punish people you don’t like are not tolerated.
Repeated misuse may result in action against your account.

🧱 Block First, Report Later

If someone’s content bothers you but doesn’t break the rules, block them.
If they bypass the block or escalate — then report.

🏡 6. You Are a Guest in This Grove

Wylderun is a shared space — not a personal kingdom.
Disregarding the peace or ignoring mod guidance may lead to removal.
Most situations can be resolved with mutual respect.

🛑 7. Ban Evasion & Proxy Communication

If someone is removed from the grove, that boundary must be respected.

No Workarounds: Creating new accounts, using VPNs, or asking others to relay messages is considered ban evasion.
Relaying Is Evasion: Even casually offering to “pass along a message” will be treated as a serious violation.
Ask If You’re Unsure: Don’t act on behalf of someone who’s been removed. Ask staff instead.

🌙 Final Word

Treat others as fellow storytellers on a shared adventure.
Protect the sanctity of the grove.
Let your creativity run wild — within the bounds of care, clarity, and community.

Now go — weave legends, stir magic, and bring Wylderun to life.
