25.1 - Animal Roleplay
Engaging in roleplay as an animal or involving animals in inappropriate or unrealistic scenarios is strictly prohibited. As mentioned In Civilian Operations documents, “Animal Roleplay is strictly prohibited”. The community of Auspire would like to continue with enforcement as a community. This includes but is not limited to:
Playing as wild or domesticated animals
Animal-related attacks, injuries, or harmful interactions
25.1.1 Exemption
All law enforcement professionals with proper canine training are able to play as a handers canine under the below conditions.
You shall avoid all unrealistic behavior, this means to keep all actions within the realistic realm of the world and do what a dog would do. A dog will not talk, drive, shoot, bite randomly etc.
You shall act appropriate and listen to your handler, you will obey your handlers commands, you will not deter them or go wandering about.
You shall avoid metagaming, do not use your dog to gather information in ways that would be unrealistic, unfair, or breaking mechanics.
You shall stay within constraints of what a dog would realistically detect, this would be scents, sounds, drugs, weapons etcetera.
You shall not abuse/overdo emotes that have been provided to you by the menu. This means consistently or periodically doing things for fun, such as taking a shit for comedic purposes, or things you would be trained not to do. Just be realistic. The dog is heavily trained.
This also goes with sexual or stupid emotes, you will not utilize them.
Ensure that you communicate with your handler, this means to mimic canine behavior from real-life. For instance, if you detect something, use appropriate emotes such as barking, growling or sitting. You should remain close to your handler at all times unless given a specific command to search or chase etc.
You shall respect roleplay boundaries, this means if your canine is involved in a tense scene you shall avoid action that could interrupt or disrupt the scene.
Just be mature and professional, you are being entrusted to play as an animal, which has been forbidden for a while, so you should use common sense, act like an animal, act like a dog, be mature, and follow your department's SOP and Auspire Rules at all times.
