Amaryllis uses a player-versus-player system when it comes to on-site combat and fighting. Each player must choose one of the PVP levels below for each of their characters. This means that your characters can be different PVP levels, depending on their personalities, ambitions, or plots.

We use a "Red Light - Orange Light - Yellow Light - Green Light" structure to distinguish between PVP levels, and more details on what this means can be found down below.

Unofficial fights (fights that do not use the dice or PVP systems) are allowed, but should be talked about and agreed upon OOCly by the involved members first.

OOC Guidelines:

• You may only change your character’s PVP level once every 3 OOC months.
• You cannot change your level during a fight or challenge. This includes changing your PVP if you have received an OOC indication that a challenge is incoming, as this is considered OOC-to-IC.
• Abuse of the system is not permitted. If Staff see that you are abusimg the PVP permissions, they will step in.
• If there are any concerns about challenges, motivations, or changing PVP levels, it is always best to attempt to solve the issue privately before involving Staff. If a compromise or solution cannot be met, please notify Staff.
• Getting "permission", as detailed below, means getting permission from the other member who you intend to initiate the fight against. Staff only become involved if someone is abusing the system, hiding behind their PVP level, or when they are processing a death match.
• When initiating any kind of fight on-site, you should always notify the member and tag your opponent in the thread. As per the Fight System page, you must also use the following format in your post, in addition to your dice rolls:

@Who vs. @Who
Challenge Type
Rounds: # / #

IC Guidelines:

• Trespassing on pride territory will automatically increase your PVP by one level for the duration of that thread.
• If a cub under six months of age is outside of their pridelands (or is rogue), their PVP is automaticaly increased to Yellow.
• If you lose or default on a fight, the opponent may carry out the fight’s original intention.
• i.e. If you lose or default a death match, your character will die if your opponent chooses to kill you. If it's a maim match, the other character will be able to carry out the intended maim on your character.

This level is for you if you would generally like to avoid fighting, and want to have complete control over what fights your character engages in.

If your character is on Red PVP, they:

• Cannot rule a pride (High Sovereign or Sovereign); becoming a pride leader will automatically increase their PVP to Orange.
• Can challenge/be challenged for their rank by anyone without permission.
• Can have their freedom challenged for, if they are a prisoner in a pride.
• Cannot be claimed.
• Cannot be stolen from their pride or band without permission.
• With permission, can engage in dominance matches and spars.
• Cannot engage in maims, pride challenges, or death matches, even with permission.
• If you choose to instigate a higher-tiered fight within a thread, you will be bumped up to Orange PVP for the remainder of that thread/until you exit.

This level is for you if you are open to fighting, but would like some say in what happens to your character and want to be able to give permission before the instigation of any fights above minor maims.

If your character is on Orange PVP, they:

• Can challenge/be challenged for their rank or pride by anyone without permission.

• Can be challenged for dominance or minor maims without permission.
• Can challenge Yellow/Green PVPs for dominance, minor maims, and major maims without permission.
• Need permission to challenge Orange/Yellow PVPs for death. Both parties must agree.
• Can challenge Green PVPs for death without permission.

This level is for you if you are open to fighting, but would like some say in what happens to your character and want to be able to give permission before the instigation of fights above major maims.

If your character is on Yellow PVP, they:
