Ash & Blood: Server Rules

This section establishes the definitive standards for structural construction, clan organization, and follower management. These regulations preserve server performance, eliminate competitive powergaming mechanics, and ensure that every settlement, alliance, and companion remains firmly anchored within the gritty, historical aesthetics of the Hyborian Age.

This section establishes the foundational boundaries required to maintain a high quality, respectful, and deeply immersive collaborative storytelling environment. It details the core mechanics of out of character (OOC) communication, outlays our zero tolerance policies against community harassment, and defines how to navigate sensitive narrative content using active, voluntary consent.

This section establishes the tactical framework and mechanical limitations governing physical combat, territorial raiding, prisoner custody, and ultimate character mortality. These rules ensure that all mechanical hostility remains firmly rooted in authentic storytelling, providing clear boundaries that prevent griefing while preserving the gritty, high-stakes realism of the Hyborian Age.

Thievery is a narrative tool, not a wipe mechanic or a grief loophole. Robbery is a vehicle for roleplay escalation, never a source of free profit. These regulations apply whenever a locked or unlocked container, door, vault, or player inventory is accessed or surrendered without explicit permission. Violations are treated as theft abuse or intentional griefing.
