What Is Grimlocke?
Supernatural Roleplaying
We are a supernatural community. What does that mean? It means we are a
modern community with supernatural secrets. The laws here are the same
as elsewhere with strict rules on supernatural exposure laws. Humans
must never find out that supernaturals exist or we could become
subjects for scientists, gain the interest of various Government bodies,
be used as pawns, etc.
To simplify this, think of the Harry Potter world. Magic exists but
muggles remain blissfully unaware. This allows for everyone to have fun,
even if supernatural roleplay isn’t their style. But roleplay chat is
open for all nature of roleplays that follow our covenant.
Not a fan of magic and supernatural? No problem. You would just ignore
anything that might seem out of place because the human mind is an
amazing thing. Remember, you are never forced to do a roleplay that you
did not agree to. Supernaturals will hide their true nature, and if
you do come across something out of place, you, as a human, can just
pretend there is a reasonable explanation for it and carry on. See
someone with wings, horns, or ashen skin - You may see them as normal
humans, think they’re cosplaying, or just came back from a party.
Did you stumble on a Role Play (RP) scene where there’s a disembodied
voice? You could hear nothing at all, hear the wind, nothing out of the
ordinary.
Do you enjoy magic? You’d work hard to protect yourself and others,
avoiding bringing up certain things in public or exposing yourself as a
non-human. The laws are very strict for breaking this and the
consequences are severe. Remember, IC actions have IC consequences.
Let’s work to make this fun for everyone. We’ve been doing a roleplay
storyline for 9 yrs following this rule and have done it in non-magic
communities with no issue (by keeping our roleplays in-house and never
publicly stated). If you have any questions, just ask! We’re more than
happy to help you settle in.
We suggest, but do not require, to wear a titler marking your race what
humans could see/type of illusion, etc. This is particularly helpful for
those who do not wish to be involved in supernatural roleplays or trying
to interact with you. Mark yourself as human or No Supernatural
roleplay.
Keep in mind, if you walk into a roleplay, people are not expected to
pause or stop roleplaying until you pass. You could emote feeling a
chill and a sense of unease, remember you forgot to lock your door, or
just turn around and walk away.
