Being downed: Being downed in PvP occurs <\/span>when a character reaches 0 hp, and has no ability that can bring them back from being downed.<\/span> Being downed does not mean your character died. The outcome of a PvP encounter can be anything ranging from bruising or theft, to severe consequences such as character death (A PK ticket must be opened for this consequence prior to the PVP, even if the scene is currently underway to allow a member of Staff to approve the request). The consequence should match the preceding roleplay. <\/span>Severe consequences require a significant amount of roleplay.<\/b><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ disabled_on=”off|off|off” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” background_enable_image=”off” background_size=”custom” background_image_width=”100%” background_repeat=”repeat-y” display_conditions=”W10=” custom_padding=”|45px||45px|false|true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ header_2_text_color=”#0a0a0a” use_background_color_gradient=”on” background_color_gradient_type=”elliptical” background_color_gradient_stops=”rgba(255,255,255,0.55) 0%|rgba(196,196,196,0) 84%” custom_margin=”0px||10px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

No Value of Life:\u00a0 <\/b>Should a character who has been downed and is now in the consequence phase of PVP show no value for their own life, for the situation they are in, and not properly RP their circumstances, they are made available for a PK without the need for a prior documented PVP.
Examples of this might include taunting an enemy who wishes to kill you, identifying yourself as undead to someone who has stated they would slay the undead, or making extreme claims that might incite others to wish to stop a potential threat. If you believe someone is showing No Value of Life, open a DM ticket with the relevant RP in screenshots. If approved, fill out a PK form in that ticket. The NVL player is assumed dead until the resolution of the NVL ticket. If the NVL is denied, the player will survive the attack with severe wounds.<\/p>\n

After those 10 minutes, the combat is locked until the consequence phase when one side has won.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
10b Consequence Phase<\/b>: In this phase, if there is no immediate interruption, Temporary IC relocation of those defeated for the purposes of privately doing cons is permitted so long as they are not held after cons are dealt (Unless the con is detainment).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nThose that have happened, or do happen, across the scene can interfere in the consequences with the chance to declare another <PvP Intent>. The victor\/victors of the previous combat alone have an advantage in fleeing from it should they choose to.<\/span><\/p>\n\u2014<\/span><\/p>\nEach member that lost the pvp encounter may receive cons.<\/span>
<\/span>
<\/span>For those that lost the Pvp encounter, they cannot be attacked again so long as they are sitting below 1\/10th of their total Hit points, or an hour has passed since the Con phase was concluded one way or another. If engaged, the original party that lost only has to show their hit points are below this threshold to keep from being engaged again within the time frame.<\/span><\/p>\nIf the party that lost instigates a fight, proof will need to be submitted to show the aggression and thus override this clause.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n
\u2014<\/span><\/p>\nA character that logs on in their home and walks out of their home to view an immediate encounter in progress does not count as showing up due to OOC knowledge. It should be expected that if a fight starts in one\u2019s compound or home, other residents are likely to show up and be able to interfere in the allowed stages naturally.<\/span><\/p>\nIf proof is shown that a player was contacted OOCly to show up from out in the world it will be handled as meta.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Initiating PvP <\/b>\u2013 To initiate PvP, declare such with an OOC message following an emote indicating your intent to attack. For example: <\/span>\u201c\/me cackles and prepares to cast a spell \u201cFools! My power level is over 9000!\u201d (<PvP Intent – Bad Guys>)\u201d<\/span><\/i>. The scene is still open for 10 minutes after intent is dropped, and newcomers can join the initiative at the top of the next round. After 10 minutes, the scene is instanced until the Con phase. Refer to PvP Rule #10 for more details on PvP instancing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nStarting PvP <\/b>\u2013 All players present will first either join in the PvP with <PvP Join (Side joining)>, <PvP Flee>, <PvP Surrender>, or <PvP Observe>. <\/span>All answers to initiative should follow an emote indicating what you are doing.<\/span> For example: <\/span>\u201c\/me draws their sword and prepares to answer in kind (<PvP Join Astralyn>)\u201d<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n\n- If joining, specify what side you\u2019re joining in with<\/span><\/li>\n
- If fleeing, you will only be able to roll flee roles until you either escape or are downed.<\/span><\/li>\n
\n- If you escape, you must leave the scene<\/span><\/li>\n
- To flee, use the \u2018Flee – Evade\u2019 or \u2018Flee – Outrun\u2019 abilities in RPR. 2 successful flee rolls must be made before you can flee. Using these abilities requires your standard action, and also counts as a \u2018Dash\u2019 action, allowing you to move your base movement speed again<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
- If surrendering, you are treated as if you have 0 HP, and can be conned if the opposition wins the intent. If all on one side surrenders, that side loses by default.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
- If observing, you must stay for the entirety of the PvP encounter, until the instance opens up. If you choose to observe, you may not initiate <PvP Intent> with either party involved, though if you are attacked you may defend yourself. If you bait an intent by harassing the other party, this is void<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Those fighting will roll initiative (this is found in the Shift+R menu under Dice Tab), and the order will be from the highest numbers to the lowest numbers. In the case of two numbers being the same, those two players will roll again to see who goes first between them. Once initiative is accounted for, and everyone is ready, the player who rolled the highest may take their turn and begin the Combat.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Stalling on a PvP declaration for an unreasonable amount of time, or for allies to arrive, can end in admin intervention for avoiding roleplay.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Ending PvP <\/b>\u2013 PvP is over when only one side remains, and all other opponents have either fled, surrendered (Can be done at any point during the combat), or been reduced to 0 HP. Once PvP is over, the victors may choose to deal consequences, or \u2018cons\u2019 to <\/span>all of the<\/span> fallen. Victors must declare their cons and follow all consent rules in doing so.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
PRE-BUFFING<\/b>: Applying <\/i>beneficial status effects<\/i> to <\/i>yourself<\/span> <\/i>while inside of a scene or conflict but not in a PvP initiative<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n\n- Pre-Buffing is permitted.<\/span><\/li>\n
- While within an RP scene that devolves into Intent, any spell cast or ability used to pre-buff is considered to have been used on your first turn in initiative, and consumes whatever <\/span>action type <\/span>it costs to activate (Standard, Bonus, Free, etc).\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
- If the effect of the Spell wears out before the Intent is dropped you are permitted to act like you would in a normal intent.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
PREPARATION<\/b>:<\/span><\/p>\n\n- Preparation (Buffing outside of a scene or conflict) is permitted with no restrictions<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
<\/p>\n
Thralls, Mounts, and Pets are banned in PvP<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
How combat works<\/b> \u2013 Every turn in dice consists of a standard action, a bonus action, a movement action, and free actions. Below is the list of what you can do on your turn. Try to be considerate of your fellow Roleplayers, and consider what you will do on your turn BEFORE your turn comes around. Preparing your turn actions and your emote (within reason) helps the flow of combat greatly.<\/span><\/p>\n
