Child Avatars

​

Roleplay Decorum

• Note your age. A toddler would not be stealing a car or living on their own. A baby would not survive being outdoors alone. If you’re just exploring the community, please wear an OOC (out of character) tag.
• If you are under the age of 6, you would have a responsible companion. You can just emote having a sitter or adult/teen with you. This caregiver would prevent you from most criminal activities: stealing a car, breaking into a store, etc.; and act in the best interest of the child. That being said, of course some children may find themselves without a guardian. If any crimes are committed, you are expected to roleplay out the consequences and accept that you may be placed in the care of CPS or placed in our juvenile detention center.
• Heavy roleplay scenes — child avatars may be asked in DMs to leave an area before IC seeing something. A good example of this would be a gory crime scene. The officers would not have the ability to handle a child on top of the investigation for the scene. Otherwise, an NPC’d officer would intercept you and move you along.
• Modesty Layers - All female appearing children regardless of age are required to have a BoM top on that covers the chest area (this applies to Mer as well. We want to see either a bodysuit style or tank top - not just shells).

​

Medical Roleplay

• All children will have a happy ending. No minor aged avatar will be killed or permanently injured. This is done out of respect for those who do real life medical.
• Recovery period will be up to the medical and child role player and not to exceed an unreasonable amount of time. Unless both parties have agreed, no one should be held longer than 7 RL days.
• Please ensure that all parties are comfortable with the nature of roleplay.

​

Teen/Minor aged Criminals

• Child avatars under the age of 13 should not be committing major crimes such as grand theft auto, robbery, and arson. Common sense logic applies; Stealing your parent’s car at age 12 is reasonable, setting buildings on fire and lockpicking and stealing other people’s cars at age 8-12 are not. Capital crimes like attempted murder and murder should not be committed by any child avatar under age 16.
  • There are always exceptions to rules. Accidental fires, an in-depth character who is willing to accept roleplay consequences, a storyline that has led to a certain roleplay plot. If you are uncertain, you’re always welcome to reach out.
  • Please note — juvie is for all minor aged characters. Just because you are a single digit age will not prevent you from being placed behind bars.
• You will not be held longer than 7 days in Juvie unless this is agreed on by yourself and with the Sheriff’s consent. If you find yourself still in Juvie or still awaiting a trial - please contact the Sheriff or a member of staff.

​

Juvenile Detention for Criminal Youth

• The Juvenile Detention Center is for criminal youth who are serving out their sentences and awaiting sentencing.
• There would be visiting hours between the hours of 10am and 6pm. All visitors are subject to be searched and would only be allowed access to the visitor receiving area. All visitors would have to be pre-authorized by staff at either the Sheriff’s Office or the Court system.
• You would need a keycode, ID Badge, or Keyfob to be let into and out of the building, with the exception of a fire alarm that would automatically unlock all doors.
• All interior doors would be secure and locked.
• All juveniles are given free access to the common areas. Interior doors would be monitored by a member of staff at all times and kept locked.
• You would more than likely have some form of community service when freed from the Center.
• You are allowed up to 15 prims for personal effects in your cell. These would be items such as religious symbols, photos, school related, books, bed decor, etc. You would not have electronics beyond a basic radio.
• Your cell would be searched randomly. IC you would not have much privacy.
• You can only be held in juvenile detention for a week, 7 real life days max, unless you agree to a longer sentencing. If you find your case hasn’t been closed or you haven’t been given your court date — please contact management.
• School for juveniles currently incarcerated within the Juvenile detention center. The Juvenile would be given the option to attend virtually via a laptop that would be restricted and monitored at all times. The Juveniles that elect to attend in person would be fitted with an ankle monitor that would track the location of the individual and would be escorted to their locker and/or classroom by a staff member from the facility and would be picked up at the end of the school day and returned to the youth facility to continue serving their sentence.
