"All things are poison, and nothing is without poison; the dosage alone makes it so a thing is not a poison" ⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆ CONTENTS ⋆Who are we? ⋆Rules ⋆Special perks ⋆Ranks/Roles ⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆ WHO ARE WE? ⋆Atropa Belladonna is an afterlife debate team founded by @vesper-luvs-pudding, who plays as the leaders of each team. Our goal is to settle disputes within Starclan and the Dark Forest, and to reveal other problems in the afterlife. ⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆ RULES ⋆Be /friendly/. Even though this is a debate group, you will be black-listed if you harass a roleplayer OORP or IRP. Your characters are allowed to argue and hate each other, though. ⋆No homophobia, transphobia, racism, or any form of discrimination. ⋆No religious talk unless IRP and about actual warriors beliefs. For example, you cannot speak of Jesus during a meeting. ⋆Treat everyone equally. Everyone in Atropa Belladonna is considered equal, no matter the age of their death. For example, Beekit died at 3 moons, and is the leader of team STC. This group is also to allow anyone who didn't make it to adulthood (20 moons) to experience respect and authority. ⋆⋆Note: Limerose might act as though you are beneath him, but she does get lectured by Scatteredblossom later. ⋆All cats may join. You may have noticed that there are only two teams, Starclan and the Dark Forest, despite there being three afterlife allegiances. Shades act as mediators and keep the teams from fighting or breaking the rules. ⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆ SPECIAL PERKS ⋆Every member is given wolfsbane as an unofficial accessory during initiation. ⋆Access to the Grove (secret meeting place along the border). ⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆⊱༻᯽༺⊰⋆ RANKS ⋆Leaders - Leaders of each Team are established simply to keep the teams organized. They make the rules for their teams during their leadership, which lasts 3 OORP months. ⋆Watchers - Watchers are the equivalent of guards posted at the Grove during meetings. ⋆Eyes - Eyes are a lesser form of Watchers, and are usually paired with a Watcher to learn from them. This progresses to Watcher status after 3 OORP weeks. ⋆Lures - Lures are the cats who place and plant the wolfsbane, which leads to the Grove. Following their trails begin initiation into the group. ⋆Newblood - represents the newest members of the group. | RANKS FOR SHADES/STARS GUARDIANS/MEDICS ⋆Mediators - If the Teams get too rowdy, a Mediator will be tasked with settling the dispute, though the arguing parties are allowed to refuse. ⋆Negotiators - If a Mediator fails to settle, a Negotiator will be tasked with making a compromise. The arguing parties will be forced to resolve the issue. ⋆Observers - As the name suggests, these cats are simply there to observe the debates. They are not permitted to negotiate or mediate. (I will make a discussion about how the Shades work soon. Their system is complex and I'd rather not do it here.) Every rank has a part in the debate, and are all free to converse as they please. Note: All Shades and Stars Guardians/Medic Cats are part of the Shade Team.
