Well, you can't have a RolePlay without the rules & regulations put in place to keep everyone safe and ensure that everyone knows their limits, or is it that you don't know how far you can go? Daybreak is labeled as a mature roleplay. This means we will include, and roleplay, sensitive subjects, such as intimacy, violence, abuse, starvation, politics, death, and other forms of suffering. Please consider this a fair warning. If you might be triggered by these subjects and find you cannot roleplay these, this is not the roleplay for you! You have been warned!

Here at Daybreak, us Staff have noticed that in majority of RolePlays, restrictions are made; "what you're not allowed to do", never ending. However, we've never seen "what you are allowed to do."
Map Regulations
X ●Do not hand out the download to anyone not in the Rp or not looking to join the Rp.
X ●Do not claim the map as your own, it belongs to our lovely Skitty | Ashbelly . Don't be this person.
X ●An outsider character may lay claim to places in the map not owned by any clans. It will be up to you to make it known your character lives here, and up to you to defend it! You can post pictures of your "den" and "borders" in your Biography!
X ●Only RolePlaying in the official map is considered canon! Discord Roleplay is currently not available.
Roleplaying Regulations
X ●No power playing or god modding.
"Synonyms: Powerplaying and Godmodding is taking control of another player's character during roleplay. It's frowned upon and with good reason: you only control your character and no one else's. The best way to explain it is by example."
X ●No unrealistic colours, this includes bright blues, yellows or rainbow pelts. Before creating a character, ask yourself, could a cat look this way in real life?
X ●We encourage simple dice rolling to sort out difficult situations where you can't decide how you want it to end! Read more about our simple dice system; -HERE-
X ●Remember your character's age, and act your characters age appropriately, a kit wouldn't know how to lead and an elder wouldn't be up to date on the "cool, new hip games".
X ●Prefixes are not sex orientated, you may choose any prefix for your character regardless of their sex.
X ●Yes, we consider to be a mature and realistic RolePlay. While we of course do not promote any kind of abuse, abuse may be suggested or a part of a character's history. This does NOT mean roleplaying any kind of sexual abuse. If such were to happen, please skip it. This is a rule we take very seriously. Please contact a staff member with any questions or concerns.
X ●Yes, you can be a poor taste mean, stubborn and harsh cat. You can be racist towards the other clans and sexist towards she-cats. We are realistic. This encourages so much character development! None of which is real! This should NEVER be taken personally or expressed OOC!
X ●Please bare in mind that others may not feel comfortable roleplaying these sort of subjects. If you feel this way please ask politely and let it be known that you are not comfortable. You may remove yourself from the situation and return at any time. If you're on the other end, please respect this and try to tone it down a little. Respect others.
Character Regulations
X ●We do not permit hairless cat breeds in the clans. They would not survive in the wilderness due to having no coat to keep them warm.
X ●You may have up to 2 characters. An additional "Other Animal" can be applied for when applications open. More character slots can be purchased with Feathers. You can have your characters be in any allegiance. Members are not limited to one allegiance.
X ●Cats can be as masculine or as feminine and act how ever they want to, despite their sex. However this is a cat RolePlay and to avoid bringing the real-life political nature into the RolePlay we do not permit transgender cats. Since gender dysphoria is a psychological condition, we would like to take it seriously and not bring it into the world of warriors. However, characters may have any sexual orientation, heterosexual, homosexual, asexual, bisexual. Please contact a staff member with any questions or concerns.
X ●We do not consider ourselves to be strictly accurate to the kittens appearance to their parents. It's a very complicated process of genetics- We're here to have fun. You have freedom with character design from parents designs to kits, we only ask you keep it reasonable. You do not have to follow genetics perfectly, but rather with some sense.
Out Of Character Regulations
X ●Respect one another. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Remember, we're all humans on the other side of the screen.
X ●Do not harass another member for the following: mate begging, rank begging and advertising of other RolePlays outside Daybreak. Nobody likes that, don't be that person.
X ●If another member is breaking a rule, you may report it to a Moderator. This screenshot will be sent to the staff chat and will be discussed by the entire team, unless you request privacy and anonymity. At the bottom of this thread, there is a form for reporting a rule breaker.
X ●If you disagree with something on this list or ever disagree with a staff members saying, please do not hesitate at all to contact another member of staff. We want to make sure our staff is doing the right thing, too!
X ●Do not cause unnecessary drama in The Grounds while we are out recruiting. We would like to be respectful of other roleplays. We discourage chatting passive-aggressively or flat out aggressively in Local. We discourage being petty in one's ad's or MovieClips. Please let the recruiters and staff do the recruiting! If another person were to antagonize you or our group while out recruiting, please ignore them. It's always best not to engage, and we can enjoy roasting an antagonizer in the safety of the group chat. Any remarks or criticisms should be kept in Group chat, but try to criticize and observe rather than trash-talk. There is a difference!
Discord Regulations
X ●Let's all stay mature. Keep your posts to their designated sections on the Discord, including the calls with one-another which you are more than welcome to do! Do not spam lewd photos, or otherwise, in any channels aside from NSFW. Do not bash other roleplays. Use common sense.

Anything Else?:The Warrior Code
1. Defend your Clan, even with your life. You may have friendships with cats from other Clans, but your loyalty must remain to your Clan, as one day you may meet them in battle.
2. Elders, queens, and kits must be fed before apprentices and warriors. Unless they have permission, apprentices may not eat until they have hunted to feed the elders.
3. If any warrior or apprentice is sick or injured, they may eat while the elders, queens, and kits are eating.
4. Prey is killed only to be eaten. Give thanks to StarClan for its life.
5. A kit must be at least six moons old to become an apprentice.
6. Newly appointed warriors will keep a silent vigil for one night after receiving their warrior name.
7. A cat cannot be made deputy without having mentored at least one apprentice.
8. The deputy will become Clan leader when the leader dies, retires or is exiled.
9. After the death or retirement of the deputy, the new deputy must be chosen before moonhigh.
10. A Gathering is held at the full moon during a truce that lasts for the night. It usually includes the leader, deputy, medicine cats, senior warriors, and warriors and apprentices who do well in their work. There shall be no fighting among cats at this time.
11. Boundaries must be checked and marked daily. Challenge all trespassing cats.
12. No warrior can neglect a kit in pain or danger, even if the kit is from a different Clan.
13. The word of the Clan leader is the warrior code.
14. An honorable warrior does not need to kill other cats to win their battles, unless they are outside the warrior code or if it is necessary for self-defense.
15. A warrior rejects the soft life of a kittypet.
