As a first note:
All FBR members must follow these rules if committed to joining. As Staff I am permitted to ban/suspend/warn in many ways possible. Cry and whine all you want these are rules, and are not to be changes.

Important rules in red

-------------------------------------------

GENERAL;;
------------

.Please always respect every player on FBR, staff to the newest newbie. We don't come here to fight, nag, or bug anyone. Thats just rude. Be kind and courteous, and keep you cruel words and things to yourself

.Respect the Staff's opinion. If you don't win a contest do go around yelled 'screw you' or anything rude like that. Staff judge fairly an squarely so you don't win obviously you didn't do good enough. Obey the Staff at all causes, you are their minions. Sure you have free speech but Staff is who made FBR what it is

.This site is rated PG-13 due to violence and mild-language. NO GRAPHIC OR FORCE BREEDING We are not sickos, and we don't need this. [Unless a force breed falls along the line of a plot and you talk it over Occily]You can cuss if you need to or just on the point of exploding, please go ahead. But don't out do yourself, in OOC. Now in IC if you character is a hard bad-ass brute then a couple cuss words thrown in is fine by me

.The site is Intermediate to Advanced RPG. No one liners, or even one paragraphs. We can understand if you muse is dead and can only squeak out a one paragraph, but if this is your highest post ever, GO TO NEOPETS. That place is open to anyone and is friendly.

.No fighting in OOC. Please no sexual, graphic, sexist and raciest words ANYONE in FBR. We are not this kind of RPG

.No spamming in the c-box or threads not designed for 'random'

.When you leave, please post somewhere [soon to come Leaving Board] so you know that your gone and for how long!

.and most importantly Have fun!



RPiNG GUiDE;;
------------

.Please stay realistic in FBR. Wolves can do only so much. For example a wolf cannot 'hand the other wolf a key' that ridiculous. Wolves don't have opposable thumbs. Nor can a wolf 'hug' another, because wolves cant, and wolves don't know what a 'hug is'. So keep to the code guys.

.Following the plot, Wolves and Dogs are allowed on FBR. They must be mutts, wolf-dog hybrids, or dogs knowin to Italy

.No Powerplaying [PP] or Godmodeling [GM] If you are wondering what this is, ill show you. PP follows the line of playing another character, as in saying your wolf said this, or saying that you attacked them and they broke leg. GM is when you can miss every attack that is thrown at you, literally acting like a 'god'.

The incorrect way to post:

Bob snarled as Lady said 'I hate you!'. Lady moved out of the way and Bob lunged, jaw sinking into Lady's neck and killing her on the spot.

First off, Bob is 'you' and Lady is the other RPer. In this post you don't say lady moved or spoke, because she didn't. Nor did Bob allow Lady to choose whether she would take the hit or not. Tis is PP

The correct way to post:

Bob snarled in frustration in what Lady did. How dare she do that to him, how dare she say that to him! He had enough. With another low growl, he flexed his muscles, reading himself for a lunge. Then suddenly he lifted off his feet, jaws wide to aim at Lady's neck.

Not only was this correct, but it was more descriptive. Now Lady has a chance to get hit on her neck or somewhere else, or evade and lay her attempt.

.When making a title please say what kind of thread it is. For example if you want a private thread put a P in the title, and who it is private with. If your thread is a open thread put a O in the title. If your thread is a Breeding Thread put a B in the title. If it a Birthing thread, put a BI in the thread. And finally if you thread is closed put closed or C in the title. This way everyone can understand.

.We have many threads that can help you many things here at FBR. Including wolf communication and breeding. This will be coming soon

RULiNG;;
------------

.If you don't win at a Alpha Auditing don't worry. You can always challenge when you feel up to it. Wolves are challenged from in and outside of the pack, but be aware of the consequences. If you loose to the Alpha, he or she could kill you, or exile you from the pack. But be realistic, a little white wolf is not going to come in and take over the most powerful pack leader

.As Alpha you have the choice to kill any pups that you wish to kill. Mothers are allowed to put up a fight, but normally the Alpha Female [who does this] has wolves to come with her. She rules the pack so the pack follows her

.Subordinates must obey the Alphas completely, because you will face the consequences.

.Territories are owned by a Pair of dominant wolves. If the dominant male dies the female CAN rule alone. But normally she chooses another mate before long

.Please, when you become Alpha, post a 'status thread' in which it contains everything about the pack, member count, and the open/closed ranks



PACK;;
------------

.Alpha is the male dominant canine. Alphena is the female dominant canine

.Ranks follows; Alpha(s), Beta(s), Gamma(s), Delta(s), Guardians/Babysitters, Subordinates, Pups, Omegas.


.Alphenas decide upon the breeding in the pack. Subordinate females can have pups with other males, including their Alpha. But if the Alpha says 'no' to breeding because he doest approve, the pack it to large, or their is less food, THAT MEANS NO PUPS. No sneaking off the breed, because you will be punished. You could be exiled from pack, killed, or your pups killed.

.Alphens protect their packs, pups, and land from other challenging strays. They choose you gets a rank and so on

.The second in command is the rank of Beta Normally, just like Alphas, they have a Beta Male and a Beta female. Most of the time the Beta pair are mates. They are extremely respected in the pack and take care of other businesses around the pack. They sometimes lead hunts, and deliver punishments when the Alphas cannot

.Third in command is Gammas. Like the other ranks, they are two a female and male, normally mates. They act as the real police of the pack, taking care of fighting, disruptions, and bad behavior. If something is wrong in the pack they will know.

.Fourth in command are Deltas. There is a Male and Female Delta, normally mates. They are prized as the Hunters, normally tracking down the prey a pack hunt may be stalking

.Other ranks such as Guardians, Babysitters, and subordinates don't have any special rank. They just take up the majority of the pack numbers

.The lowest of the low is the Omegas. Their can be one Omega, or 10, all depending on what the Alpha is. One punishment of disobeying orders happen to be demotion. Any wolf can become an Omega, and it can be female, pup, or male


REPRODUCTION;;
------------

.NO graphics breeding ever. That is sick and disgusting.

.Breeding can be done between any wolf, but be aware that they're consequences. Alpha Males can choose to breed to any female he wishes too. Alpha Females are normally reserved to breed with the Alpha Male, and not normally is she bred with a subordinate or loner. Normally in breeding season, the Alpha male will keep a close eye on the Alphena, waiting for her to allow him to breed. Also, any subordinate can breed with another pack member, including Betas, Gammas, etc. But if the Alpha pair do not approve, be aware

.Normally when two wolves breed they become mates, but be aware that you don't have to be mates to breed.

.Forcebreeing is only allowed if it is discussed in OOC.

.Wolves can fall in love at any age. Females begin going into heat around one, but normally can successfully conceive at 3. Males are ready to breed at age one, though they may begin taking an interest in females earlier than that. Also Males normally can commit to a breed at age four

.Breeding can only occur when Breeding is allowed. It will be announced in the tables above. Also a breeding thread can be done anywhere, including the loner lands and pack sites

.Litters range from 1-6 pups at a time. Please be realistic about how many lives, and their genders. Not all puppies live, and remember this is nature, the wild. Most puppies don't live to see their first birthday

.Females are pregnant for 5 OOC days. You are responsible for keeping count of this

.Females must be pregnant in IC. You cannot create a female that is already pregnant, or just say you mates with so and so


THE END;;
------------

.All wolves must die, it is nature and life itself

.Your wolf cannot live till 100 years of age. Most wild wolves only live to4 or 5, but we allow your wolves to live till 8

.Wolves can die at any age, at 2, 5, or 8 years of age a wolf can die from injury, sickness, drowning, or anything else

.You may RP your wolves death, but if you want them to be on a long/short hiatus, you may say they wandered to a undiscovered part on the island
