This seems to be one of the things that has been overlooked to date, as it’s not needed to be addressed. However, some situations have come up that require that we put out some boundries. This isn't designed to stifle anyone's creativity, but there have to be guidelines.

Going forward, this is the new standard for when a scene requires a ST to be tagged in, or at the very least given a heads up, before a scene continues or takes place.

1) Any scene requiring use of genre specific talents or gifts. Disciplines, fetishes, lores, etc. While a ST may not need to be present during RP, players will be required to at least give a member of the ST staff a heads up.

2) Any scene making extensive use of “regular people” that are not NPCs. Shooting a cop, bribing the Mayor, ghouling the Post Master and so on will all require at least a quick base touching with a ST.

3) Any scene that would result in the sheet of any involved character changing. Which essentially means anything that would change the character mentally, physically, or spiritually. Look at the actions realistically, and if there’s a chance that a character would learn something profound, gain a horrible flaw, be disfigured, or otherwise not come out the other end in the same shape they started, then grab a ST for clearance.

Obviously, your own ST would be the best choice, but if they’re not available feel free to grab anyone from the ST/Admin staff. At worst, you’ll be asked to wait until your own ST(s) can be contacted, as none of us want to get into the habit of making potentially game altering decisions for someone else’s game.

Keep in mind that scenes that fall within these parameters that are not run by a ST are subject to ret-conning. Players that make a habit of ignoring this guideline will be asked to leave the game. We’re trying to run a fair, balanced, more realistic game than some sites out there. There is a place for crazy, no consequences cross-over action, but WodPitt is not it. Please respect your fellow players and our staff, and the type of game that we’re all trying to build.

Bunnies arent just cute like everybody supposes,
They got them hoppy legs and twitchy little noses,
And whats with all the carrots?
What do they need such good eyesight for anyway?
Bunnies, Bunnies, it must be bunnies!
.... Or maybe midgets?
