Uluru SoC

Uluru is a chronicle intended for mature players in a private rather than public setting. Players need to be 18+ in age. Personal characters need to be 14+ in age.

No Explicit Erotic Roleplay In Public Play/Archive
Specifically, no detailed or crude depictions of sex acts please. Its okay if characters kiss, caress, and things are sexy and sensual but no written porn. Personal scenes, those written in PR between players, cannot be added to the archive if they have explicit sex acts unless those are completely edited out. They really shouldn't be shared with anyone unless anything "porny" is edited out.

Players are people, characters are fictional constructs. Players -must- consent to having their characters seduced, raped, or otherwise forced in non-consensual sex, even if the scenes fade to black and don't ever happen on panel. there is no rule against presenting personal characters in any kind of relationship with any other personal character or alluding to relationships with NPCs so long as the players involved want their characters involved that way. Keep in mind that IC actions may have unexpected IC consequences.

Limit the Gory/Gross Details
Don't write descriptions of corpses or anything else that would make the average person sick to their stomach.

Slavery & Bondage
Slavery and the exploitation of an underclass -is- going to be part of this setting. New players need to be comfortable with the concept personal characters owning or being owned by other personal characters or NPCs. Sadistic acts and masochistic responses are allowed, but limit the gory or gross details as mentioned Above. Extremely violent or prolonged acts of sadism shouldn't be detailed out in public play or archived. If they are written out in PR, edit the scene before sharing or archiving it please.

Inclusion of Social Discrimination & Bigotry
Uluru can have a lot of social discrimination & bigotry. However, as a troupe we would like this to be a fictional setting where the only human ethnicities parallel the First Nations of Australia and New Zealand. The human cultures of Uluru are completely fictionalized. We would like some inhuman player races as well and social discrimination, bigotry between the races or castes within the races is completely okay.

No Obvious Satire
Uluru does draw on Australian/New Zealand mythology, geology, biomes, and other setting elements but nothing should be created that is any way mocking or derogatory of the actual First Nation cultures. Characters should not be based on historical figures even when presenting them in a positive light.

Things To Include

 * creatures, real and mythical, that are found in Australia and New Zealand. Skip creatures that were exclusively imported into the real Australia/New Zealand by colonists.


 * some form of religion (including active gods and legendary creatures that respond favorly to offerings and sacrifices) and shamanic magic that at least one type of human personal character has access to.


 * both hunter-gatherer nomadic tribes that roam around the central part of this big island realm and coastal cities, towns and villages. The ships, architecture, weapons, and inventions/technology should be equivalent to or better than Rome at the height of its empire.  Think more Rome and less medieval England in the flavor of Uluru civilization.
