15.11 Second Characters

Multiple characters in Aetolia are allowed, but a higher standard of roleplaying will generally be imposed upon those who play multiple characters. Furthermore, using one for the purpose of helping the other IN ANY WAY is strictly forbidden and will be met with the harshest of punishments, including direct confiscation of items transferred.

When we say "in any way," we mean it. This includes, but is not limited to:                                                                     
- Transferring any kind of goods or currency between characters.        
  This includes transferring credits purchased on the credit market.
(Credits purchased from the website are allowed to be transferred freely.)
(Consumables YOU purchased from the website are allowed to be transferred freely.)                                                              
- Performing services for other characters or their associates.
- Fighting the battles of other characters.
- Spying or collecting information to help other characters. (*)
- Leveraging the reputation of one of your characters to help another.
- Two or more of your characters voting within the same election, regardless of their choices.  
- Having a second in your own Vampiric Bloodline for personal gain.
- Involving a second character in your roleplay in any way.
- Referring to second characters as part of another character's family.


*: Per Announce post 3538, if you play two characters in two different cities that are currently at war and either of those characters are in the militia, consider it a hard rule that you are to only choose one character to play throughout that conflict so as not to even risk the image of impropriety.
