Where To Start
​
In Honorbound we use a "form" which you can use to make your Character or House (or Organization, Lore, etc).​​
​
Resources
​
Templates
Here is a list with links to the following templates for you to fill and edit as you see fit!
Simply go to the File tab then click Make a Copy.
You are not obligated to write any, but it is convenient in case of any potential future cameos.
​
​
Bases
There will be several bases for you to choose from, all of them fully customizable and free for personal use at Honorbound only!
And if you wish to make commissions or adopts, they will be available for purchase at my Ko-Fi shop!
There will be custom bases for: Tidal/Phobia/Gravity dragons (their anatomy is the most different of all, and thus they require their own base), as well as Felines, Canines, Saarkyr, Faeries, Drakes, Wyverns, etc.

​
Rules
Basic rules that must be followed:
​
-
Follow the guidelines for what colors, markings, and appearance dragons should have based on available elements. Note: as much as possible, but don't stress about it!
-
Adhere to the element and magic mastery limits. Do not excessively apply high mastery to too many characters, please. Keep things a little realistic and logical.
-
Don't take disallowed occupations or mastery levels. Or if you have any ideas or plans, run them by me first. (You can find me at deviantArt, or Discord: carinaayland)
-
Do not connect or involve your characters or Houses with other people's without their permission.
-
Follow the limits further detailed below. If you have questions or suggestions, feel free to let me know!
​
Thank you in advance!

However we have some restrictions in place for the sake of lore, and some of them may be purchased with currency which will be earnable for free via server activity, art/stories/roleplays submitted, daily collection, etc... (It is a fun mini-game that prevents things from being locked to players and allows everyone a fair chance at the special or rare content!)
​​
​
Elements
Unlimited. Only Chronos is unavailable for now.
​
Mastery
Community characters are expected to follow the rules of mastery for both element and magic.
Magical mastery has the same Tier limits as Elemental mastery.
​
-
Minimum Awakened/Beginner age: 3 (average age 6)
-
Minimum Controlled/Novice age: 9 (average age 15) - Most dragons don't go above this Tier.
-
Minimum Skilled/Apprentice age: 15 (average age 25)
-
Minimum Experienced/Intermediate age: 20 (average age 40)
-
Minimum Adept/Dexterous age: 35 (average age 60)
-
Minimum Potent/Expert age: 80 (average age 110)
-
Minimum Master/Sorcerer age: 100 (average age 150)
​
Higher mastery levels such as Grand Master and Elemental aren't attainable (unless the characters are dead).
If the character has high mastery in one category (element or magic), their other mastery must be low or regressing. If the Tier levels add up to 7, the dragon cannot progress in either without the other regressing in level.
These numbers are hard limits, and not just suggestions.
​
Variants
Pure Alignment Variants: as the darkest or lightest (black or white) form of an element, these are the rarest, considered the purest forms of the elements. Purchasable with AetherGems for playable characters (dead characters are free).
Discord users have the following benefits:
-
One Pure Variant of each Alignment for free, Aether and Nether, so two in total!
​
Element Colors
-
Yellow Ice: nonexistent. I don't need to explain.
-
Yellow Water: nonexistent. Reason same as above.
-
White Water: nonexistent. Reason same as above.
-
White Blood: nonexistent. Reason same as above.
-
Red Water: nonexistent. Because it could be confused with blood.
​​
​
Scale Colors
-
Pure White: dragons are very colorful, and pure white is pretty much the biggest lack of pigmentation. It can only occur through Celestial intervention. Only obtainable through AetherGems and with permission given.
​​
​
Conditions
-
Nether Darker: a dragon born of mixed alignments with predominant dark blood. Extremely rare and thus unavailable at the moment! Purchasable with AetherGems for playable characters. (Users that were in the server during Honorbound's development have 1 free Darker card)
-
Aether Darker: a dragon born of mixed alignments with predominant light blood. Extremely rare and thus unavailable at the moment! Purchasable with AetherGems for playable characters. (Users that were in the server during Honorbound's development have 1 free Darker card)

Server Currency
Currency is a fun feature that allows everyone to gain access to otherwise soft-locked features based on their activity, efforts, and interactions in the Discord server.
The ways you may earn this currency are:
​
-
Collectable daily bonus: you may go to the #collect-your-gems channel and type !collect in order to receive 100 gems.
-
Daily command prompts: such as !work and !crime, which may net you up to 50 gems.
-
Per completed RP/s and Story/ies: you may receive a set amount of aether gems based on the size of your rps, ranging from 100 up to 500.
-
Per completed Artwork/s: depending on complexity and effort, you may claim a set amount of aether gems, ranging from 100 for a simple black and white sketch, up to 1000 for a full illustration.
-
Per official purchase/s (of adopts or commissions made by me): for each purchase you'll earn 500 aether gems.
​
RPs, Stories, and Artworks will be revised and soft-graded in an unbiased manner: how long the story is (that it is well written and makes sense and it's not just something lazily put together), how well made the RP is (that it is also well-written and not just a bunch of one-liners), and how detailed the artwork is (if it's sketched, inked, colored, shaded, simple, complex, etc...). The more work you put into something, the bigger the reward bonus!
This is a beta feature
