Personal Combat & Raid Rules
Teletus & Sharkbait Cove
◈══════════════════════════════════════════════════════◈
▶ What is a Raid?
✧Has 3 or more attackers arriving to fight.
✧A raid is typically, but not always, a planned Zcs meter fighting.
✧Must contact a mod to find out how many defenders Teletus has.
✧A raid is people who come from a different location (city or village)
✧Teletus can raid Sharkbait Cove and vice versa.
▶ What is Personal Combat (Squirmish)?
✧Personal Combat (PC) is when there are 1 or more people who engage in a Zcs meter combat due to a roleplay situation.
✧A mod does not have to be contacted prior to roleplay/fight.
✧Can include people that may or not be from Teletus or Sharkbait Cove.
◈═══════════════════◈
Personal Combat Rules
◈═══════════════════◈
✧Personal Combat requires 30 minutes of role play before meter damage is dealt
• The 30 min RP rule applies to free people only. Slaves will not have 30 min to run around without being downed. That is unrealistic. RP is encouraged beforehand though, if possible. (If Assassin or Mercenary, See BC Rules)
• At least two lines must have been posted by the victim of an attack during these 30 minutes
✧All fights are considered to have started with a single pair. Everyone else is joining in, even with large groups.
✧The Aggressor must make a challenge in order to initiate Personal Combat
• A challenge is a post indicating you intend to harm the victim verbal or non verbal + the drawing of a weapon
• Drawing a weapon is not a challenge on its own. It is a "Ready" action. Do not draw your weapon if you are not "Ready"
✧The victim of an attack must take a "Ready" action in response to your challenge in order to be meter damaged.
• Drawing a weapon is a Ready action
• Running away is a Ready action.
• If the victim walks away (Not runs) you must demand they stop once, if they do not obey it is a Ready action (If RP has taken place before the action, MOD will not get involved)
• If both parties are engaged in a heated roleplay scene, and one party is unwilling to fight but continues to escalate the situation, consequences may follow. It’s important to recognize the reason for combat in these scenarios. However, if the unwilling party continues to attempt de-escalation while the opposing party remains aggressive, they should call for guards or warriors to assist (if the victim is a citizen of Teletus). Our goal is to ensure immersion without resorting to senseless violence.
✧If the Victim is unarmed (Free or slave) you are expected to ALWAYS attempt to roleplay subduing them first before fighting.
✧If personal combat has already begun between two or more people, anyone else can join in on that fight IF them entering is realistic. Do not Metagame or use any kind of white knighting
✧Examples of Personal Combat Situations
• Kidnapping attempt
• Runaway slave
• A disagreement/fight between two people
• Someone caught in an act that they should not be doing. (stealing, entering a home or business they should not be entering.
• Caught spying
• Capturing a free woman in order to collar her due to her actions.
✧If you capture someone (e.g., placing them in a cage), do not leave them unattended without roleplay. If you need to leave shortly after, ensure that the captive has someone to roleplay with or IM them to ask if it's okay to leave. Clearly communicate your intentions regarding your return.
✧If you are a captive and you are trying to realistically escape by lockpicking out of the cell you must make 3 emotes or 10+ words of your actions with the last emote being the one that unlocks the lock. Remember if you were searched before being put in the cell you can’t just realistically pull out a lock picking device.
✧If you are locked up and you escape by lockpicking you must share the rp with a mod for them to determine if it was a valid escape. If it is deemed not valid then you will have to go back into the cell.
✧Remember roleplay trumps visuals. If you are in a cell that doesn’t have a lock you can still roleplay unlocking the lock.
✧Free women can protect themselves with female approved weapons if:
• They have been attacked first by a Free man.
• Someone came into their private home. The entering of a home is considered an action.
✧Slaves can protect themselves but only with their fists but there may be IC consequences with such actions.
✧Kills must be AGREED upon by the players involved in the rp.
✧If a kill happens it is up to the player being killed to determine if they are going to do a 24 hour death, or perma death. If they do not choose perma death, then they are only dead to you and the story that leads to the death will be over. Both of you will reset to a neutral point after the 24 hour death timer is over.
✧All weapon sheaths must be worn. You are only armed with the weapon sheaths you are currently wearing at the start of the roleplay scene.
✧YES we allow dice fights. One person must ask for it in the other persons IM's. Once a person emotes drawing a weapon the opponent has no more than 5 minutes to emote a response or communicate with the aggressor that they prefer a dice fight. Best out of 3 rolls wins. Dice fights must be agreed upon by both parties.
▶ Personal Combat - Not Allowed Situations
✧Personal combat is not allowed without a roleplay reason. Random attacks or attacks on sight are prohibited.You may not attack someone who is visibly holding a weapon as part of their "Look."
• However, if that person is near an ongoing fight and appears engaged, they may be considered a valid target.
✧Repeated stalling in roleplay for more than 10 minutes after a challenge is issued may lead to a temporary ban (Mod involvement).
✧The aggressor must IM the victim to confirm if they are typing a response before attacking, especially if the victim has gone silent.
✧Phrases like "BRB Door," "Sorry RL," or "Laggy one sec" are not acceptable excuses unless both parties have agreed OOC in IMs. We understand RL happens, (Children, pets, weather, etc) but if you have initiated a scene, we encourage ICA=ICC. (In-character actions = In-character consequences)
◈═════════════◈
Raiding Rules
◈═════════════◈
We use the Gorean Consensus Raid Rules (GRCC) for Zcs Meter. In gorean roleplay, GRCC, refer to the specific, player-created guidelines designed to ensure that raid and combat scenarios remain consensual and fair for all participants. These rules are not drawn from the Gorean novels themselves but are a necessary safety measure for online roleplay in Secondlife.
▶ Required Emotes: We do have have a word count but must stat your actions of what you are doing.
✧Binding: 3 emotes that clearly describe the action, include the name of the person, and securely bind them.
✧Unbinding: 1 emote that clearly describes the action and includes the name of the person being unbound.
✧Aiding: 1 emote that clearly describes the action and includes the name of the person being aided.
✧Self Unbinding: 3 emotes that clearly describe your actions of unbinding, with a min. of 25 min. on sim.
✧Sailing: 1 emote that must include the name(s) of the captive(s) and the destination.
✧Disarming: 1 emote per weapon that includes a clear disarming action, the name of the person, and weapon.

✧NO REFUSING BINDS - No refusal of binds mid-raid. You MUST accept. If there is an issue with your bind post contact your OOC Mod.
✧NO IMS between attackers/defenders - Do not IM the opposing team. If there are any issues, contact your OOC Mod. Your OOC Mod will be in talks with the Teletus OOC Mod. Let each team Mods handle negotiations to their own team for any issues. Do NOT IM the offenders directly.

After the Raid
◈═════════════◈
✧A winner will be declared once all the attackers or defenders and raiding slaves have been captured.
✧If the attackers win they can take up to two free captives and one slave. They must have been captured during the raid to be qualified to be taken as a captive. If the slave has an owner that is banned from the attackers sim then that slave is not permitted to be taken as a captive.
✧If the attackers lose then Teletus can keep two free and one slave as captives and sail the rest.
✧If the attackers win and take captives they must shoot the location of where they are taking them to.
✧Captives in Teletus can be rescued after 24 hours. 1 or 2 people coming to rescue must follow the ‘Personal Combat Rules’. 3 or more people it is again considered a raid.
