</div>

<div style="color:#aaffaa; text-align:center; margin-bottom:20px; line-height:1.6;">
Misfits: Nuclear Wasteland operates as a Medium Roleplay Fallout environment.<br/>
The goal is not only engaging gameplay but the creation of memorable stories shaped by player choice.<br/>
<br/>
The wasteland is harsh and consequences matter.<br/>
Your survival depends on your actions, your alliances, and your judgment.<br/>
<br/>
<span style="color:#668866;">Administrative intervention is rare and reserved for rule enforcement, not story rescue.</span>
</div>

=== <span style="color:#00ff00;">Directive 0 — Conduct</span> ===

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
This is a collaborative environment. Toxicity, ego play, and behavior designed to ruin others' enjoyment are not tolerated.

* Play to create story, not to "win"
* Respect administrators and developers
* Cooperate during admin interactions
* Do not disconnect during active tickets
* Report technical issues promptly

<span style="color:#668866;">Administration may intervene in situations not explicitly covered if behavior damages the community or the round. Punishments are issued at staff discretion based on severity, context, and history.</span>
</div>

=== <span style="color:#00ff00;">Directive 1 — Griefing</span> ===

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
Griefing is any action taken primarily to disrupt gameplay or degrade the experience of others without meaningful in-character reasoning.

Examples include:
* Deliberate destruction with no RP justification
* Trap placement intended only to frustrate
* Large-scale disruption without narrative basis

<span style="color:#668866;">Lack of intent does not always excuse large-scale damage. If your actions severely impact the round without reasonable RP logic, they may be treated as griefing.</span>
</div>

=== <span style="color:#00ff00;">Directive 2 — Fair Play</span> ===

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">2.1 Metagaming</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
Using out-of-character knowledge to influence in-character actions is prohibited.

Information from the following may not be used in character:
* Discord
* Streams or ghosting
* OOC Chat
* External communication

<span style="color:#668866;">Streaming is allowed, but responsibility for information leaks lies with the streamer.</span>
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">2.2 Multiaccounting</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* Multiple accounts in the same round are forbidden
* Ban evasion is strictly prohibited
* Alternate accounts to avoid punishment history are not allowed

<span style="color:#ff5555;">Violations may result in permanent bans.</span>
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">2.3 Exploits</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* No cheats, macros, or third-party tools
* No intentional bug abuse
* No deliberate server strain

Report discovered bugs through official channels.
</div>

=== <span style="color:#00ff00;">Directive 3 — Roleplay Standards</span> ===

<div style="padding:10px 0;">
Characters must fit the Fallout setting in tone, behavior, and naming.
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">3.1 Character Identity</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* No meme names or real-world references
* No reuse of dead or permanently imprisoned characters without approval
* Administration may require name changes
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">3.2 Communication</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* Do not break immersion with mechanical terms
* Keep OOC topics out of IC channels
* OOC channels must remain respectful
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">3.3 Atmosphere</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* Do not reference admins or game systems in character
* Provide IC reasons for absence when possible
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">3.4 Knowledge Limits</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
Your character is not all-knowing. Do not reference technology or knowledge your character would not realistically possess.
</div>

=== <span style="color:#00ff00;">Directive 4 — Erotic Roleplay</span> ===

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
<span style="color:#ff5555; font-weight:bold;">Explicit ERP is prohibited in all forms.</span>

Light romantic interaction such as flirting, hugging, or kissing is permitted if:
* Non-explicit
* Consensual

<span style="color:#668866;">If staff instruct you to stop behavior near the boundary, you must comply immediately. Violations may result in removal.</span>
</div>

=== <span style="color:#00ff00;">Directive 5 — SSD Protection</span> ===

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
Characters who disconnect (SSD) may not be directly harmed.

<span style="color:#55ff55; font-weight:bold;">Allowed:</span>
* Looting SSD characters

<span style="color:#ff5555; font-weight:bold;">Prohibited:</span>
* Killing SSD characters
* Kidnapping SSD characters

<span style="color:#668866;">Disconnecting during active combat removes this protection. SSD players inside faction bases during raids are not protected.</span>
</div>

=== <span style="color:#00ff00;">Directive 6 — Armed Conflict</span> ===

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">6.1 Escalation</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
Dialogue must precede lethal force.

Requirements:
* Face-to-face escalation
* Clear demand given
* Time to respond

<span style="color:#668866;">Exceptions: Active firefights, immediate threats, wildlife, and faction warfare.</span>
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">6.2 Robbery</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* Directive 0 & 1 applies still
* Items must be specified
* Items must be visible
* Non-resisting victims must live
* Refusal to give said item after telling twice counts as escalation

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:0.5;">
Example:

Antag: "Give me your laser rifle now!"

Victim: "Wait who are you?"

Antag: "Not going to ask again give it now!"

Victim: *Does anything but give it*

Antag: *May fight*
</div>

</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">6.3 Faction Warfare</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* Factions begin neutral
* Highest Rank can declare war
* War begins five minutes after /war
* Killing diplomats or surrendered individuals is forbidden
* Before war is declared a major event must happen
Major Event Example:

NCR: The Legion had a skirmish that wounded three of our members. Their aggression must come to a halt. With this, the NCR declares war on the Legion.
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">6.4 Early Raids</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
Faction bases may not be raided within the first 30 minutes of a round.
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">6.5 Faction Equipment & Impersonation</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* All factions may be looted of armor, uniforms, weapons, and items
* Any person impersonating a faction may be escalated upon
* Wearing a faction's armor gives that faction permission to escalate
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">6.6 Raids</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* Raids must be initiated via /raid
* Raids must have a good roleplay reason and be articulated as such
* Articulate the objective of the raid
* /war is required for /raid
* Raids are last resorts to solve conflict
* If denied or no response is given, the attacking party must leave

Good Raid Request:

NCR: Over the course of the week (2hours) Legion has captured several wastelanders and have enslaved them. We will assault the Legion compound, free the slaves, and leave.

Definition: A raid is an organized, hostile occupation by one faction/player(s) into the primary base of another faction with the explicit intent to accomplish a specific objective. Raids are not random acts of violence or casual skirmishes they are deliberate operations that carry significant roleplay weight and consequences for both parties involved.

</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">6.7 Conflict Intervention</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* Players who clearly surrender may not be executed if no crossfire exists
* Faction or gang members with identical uniforms may assist allies in active conflict
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">6.8 Round-Removal (RR)</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* Round-removals must be appropriate to escalation (one fight does not equal RR)
* Kill, leave the body, and give characters a chance for a story
* Intentional gibbing or beheading follows Rule #1: Don't be a dick
* Factions prioritize revival (within reason) and imprison/enslave (inclusive to Town, NCR, Legion, and BoS)
* Example: NCR lets FoTA know the location of bodies after a battle if they do not have proper resources to revive/imprison
</div>

==== <span style="color:#55ff55;">6.9 Outlaws</span> ====

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
* Outlaws must provide RP first
* Their sole purpose should not just be mass murder
</div>

=== <span style="color:#00ff00;">Directive 7 — New Life Rule</span> ===

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
Players may not rejoin on the same character to bypass death. Characters forget the circumstances of their death.
</div>

=== <span style="color:#00ff00;">Directive 8 — Fear Roleplay</span> ===

<div style="padding:10px 0; line-height:1.8;">
FearRP applies when a player is revived in a secure location.

* '''Example:''' Legion kills a BoS Paladin and revives them at their camp. The Paladin must now value their life and follow FearRP.
* Escape attempts require admin approval via Ahelp. Failed attempts require new approval.
* If you do not wish to RP as a slave or prisoner, you are permitted to ghost; however, that character is now considered killed and is not protected under SSD rules.
