about these rules - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - It may seem like there are a lot of rules set up here, but it's actually not that hard to follow, and I'm really not that uptight. Yes, there are 'punishments' for breaking them, but they're here for a reason - to make it simple to have fun while spilling your creativity!
• MOST IMPORTANTLY, HAVE FUN! ! !

creating a character - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - • Once again, one character per account. • The species we accept are lions, tigers, and leopards.
