Rules of Combat

Rules for Combat   

''' 1. Judges/ Referees '''  Judges are an absolute Must for any type of Spar or Battle. There must be at least one judge who is an approved Soldier to judge spars, or a Guardian and above. 

''' 2. Leader’s Discretion on Visitor Battles/Spars '''  Under the Leaders Discretion, If someone enters the empire and becomes threatening through the terms of role-play, they may or may not participate in the role-play from there on out. Some Empires will allow this aggressive behavior, but be warned that it will not be a simple one on one battle. <span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

First posts will be reserved for entry/introduction posts. ((Ex. but not limited to, What your char. looks like, clothing, weapons etc.)) (Anything that consumes magics or an enchantment is considered an attack and cant be used on you first post.)

In DEvrp's definition of T-1 for every three dodges performed, you must take the fourth attack in some shape or form. (This applies to everyone reguardless of clan or ranking)   <span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">

( Ex: Techniques that did not exist, techniques that were not learned, techniques that are known as forbidden Enchantments, S rank techniques that were specialized to one individual, Numerous affinity techniques, etc.) <span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Helvetica,sans-serif;">
