Code of Conduct

I took the time to actually write this stuff out. I read an article about why commandments/rules/contracts are important for RPGs. I stole some principles from the original article, some from OSR principle sheets, some from John Wick. Steal from me if you wish. I would encourage you to compile your own.

GM Code of Conduct

• I am the Game Master. I own the game.
• You’re welcome at my table if you abide by my rules.
• Every offense deserves an apology and needs forgiveness.
• RPGs don’t work without trust.
• I am an impartial arbiter.
• The rules are my tool.
• The world is my character.
• The spotlight is on you players.
• I am an antagonist in the literary sense.
• I am a cheerleader in the literal sense.

Player Code of Conduct

• Make the most of our limited time.
• Take the game seriously.
• Adventurers lead exciting lives. Be proactive.
• Play your character like you’re driving a stolen car.
• The dice may kill your character.
• The world isn’t balanced. You can leverage this.
• Use what you got. You have more than you think.
• When in doubt, ask questions.
