Viridian Setting Overview and Expectations
Viridian is a roleplaying server, if you wish to participate in events you must adhere to the guidelines set by Character Creation.
The administration reserves the right to add, edit and remove provisions at any time.
To play in the Viridian Discord you must understand and accept these conditions:
- You must be aged 16 or over to participate the discord server's activities, this cavet is for the protection of minors.
- Clarification: The server is not for porn or blatant adult content, being 18+ is intended to allow users the freedom to express themselves without affecting minors, as long as it is tasteful.
- You must be willing and able to 'roleplay' as a fictional character under the setting guidelines, specifically a character made for, or adapted to the Viridian setting and not a blatant attempt to enforce a character, media or genre upon the server itself.
- You must be tolerant (or ideally, interested) in the concept of Macrophilia/Microphilia and Bara. The server is Macro/Micro and Bara friendly to the extent allowed by the setting, and enjoyed by some of those players on the server. They have a right not be judged, kinkshamed or harrassed for these qualities.
- You must attempt to make regular contact and activity within the server, ideally checking in once or twice a week and actively participating (or attempting to play) twice a month.
- Exception: You will not be punished for being unable to maintain contact due to extrenous circumstances, nor for giving notice of absence if you are a key player.
- Respect fellow players and admins and refrain from Toxic behavior, the Viridian server is for having fun, not being hurtful, hateful and otherwise unpleasant to be around.
- Additionally: Extreme and illegal fetishes/kinks will not be tolerated, such as bodily fluids (watersports, scat) and those regarding sexual acts with animals and minors.
If you agree and adhere to the following conditions, this is a list of some of the things you will be able to do within the Viridian roleplay setting:
- Play as a tabletop-adventurer style character: whether they are completely new or adapted from characters you may already own.
- The setting began as a Pathfinder campaign retrofitted as a Discord RP server, any experience with tabletop RPGs may help you create a character, otherwise you can ask!
- Play as a Giant character: there are options to play as giants, ranging from 10-18ft large-sized Bigfolk, to towering 48-60ft Giantfolk.
- Clarification: Though giant races exist, the setting supports Giant versions of normal races (Human, Dwarf, Elf, Orc...etc)
- Play as a Small character: you may also choose to play as one of the Smallfolk, 1-3ft tall dependent on race choice.
- On Normal characters: You are welcome to create human-sized characters if you so choose. There are many benefits for being human-sized that giants and smallfolk do not!
- Play as multiple characters: by this we mean, you are allowed to have more than one character for the setting. If you are unhappy with a character or can't decide, reroll!
- Create stories and adventures within Scratby City, Vermillion Hills or the Viridian Plains: A city hub and two continental regions to use as storyhooks to roleplay within.
- Character progression (LIMITED): slow progress is being made to give characters tangible benefits and progression through gear, resources and abilities.
- Storywise: You may discuss to allow your character gain some assets within the setting to support their concept, such as their own home, place of work. Admin approval pending.
- Clarification: For the most part, the server focuses on story/character interaction roleplay. One shouldn't join purely for mechanical gains as it will not be enough!
- Be allowed to perform Mature-rated actions in character, such as swearing, violence, intimiacy/nudity, drug use...etc. However the line is drawn to descriptive sexual acts and and unambigiously distruptive actions and scenarios. This is not a Porn server.
The other things you can do in the Viridian Discord includes:
- General Chat and Light-RP room: The #green-room is a place you can use to chat about most things and also play in character without any real attachment to a story.
- Make a discord post for your character: The #character-profiles room enables you to write about your character in brief and also include a picture as a link or upload.
- Post funny/interesting images and artwork: The #community-board enables you to post stuff you find on the internet, or artwork you'd like to share.
- View a number of read-only content curated by @Oneirohero: The admin posts his own art and creations, as well as musings, FAQs and personal gallery of artwork he likes.
