== Capital Rule ==
 
  
There is one rule that governs the interaction among the characters in Cantr II.
+
== The Capital Rule ==
  
While each individual player is allowed to have multiple characters, those characters MUST be separate and distinct individuals. This has several ramifications for the game:

Please see the [https://cantr.net/index.php?page=rules Game Rules page] on Cantr.net.
  
* Your characters are not automatically a family, a clan, a tribe, an army, a company, or so on - not necessarily even friends. They should have their own interests and goals. They should not know each other unless they happen to meet. If two of your characters interact, they should do so as though each were looking out for their own interests and goals - essentially, as though the other character were being played by a stranger. Describing your characters as a family, banding all of your characters together to form an army, or starting a character solely to produce goods or perform services for the benefit of another one of your characters (making a `mule` character) are all violations of this aspect of the Capital Rule.

[[Category:The Basics]]
* Your characters do not automatically know what your other characters have seen or done. If you have a character in a city, that character should not know that there`s been a revolution to overthrow the empress of another town and establish democracy until someone travels from the latter city to the first to spread the news, even if you have another character in the empress's city. Discussing events that happened elsewhere before the news has spread by in-game means is a violation of this aspect of the Capital Rule.
 
* Similarly, a multi-location organization should not exist without some member of the organization fairly traveling from one location to the other - ABC Corporation should not open offices in two cities, unless someone travels from one of the two to the other to open the second office. The creation of organizations should take place in the game - not among your personal characters, and not offline among your friends who also play unless you have legitimate in-game contact.
 
* You should also refrain from organizing events with your friends, who also play Cantr, outside of the game. This, although it may be hard to catch, is considered cheating as it presents an unfair advantage to the other characters in Cantr.
 
 
 
The Players Department is here to help with interpretation of the Capital Rule. If you`re not sure if something you`re about to do is a violation, ask first! If you think someone else is breaking the rule, the Players Department can investigate. The Department can be contacted by emailing players@cantr.net - or just use the link on the Departments page.
 
 
 
=== Four-day Rule ===
 
 
 
Part of the capital rule is that you are not allowed to talk about any in-game developments on the forum or chat channel - or anywhere else, really - within the four days following the development. This is to avoid the spreading of news about upcoming attacks or exciting developments in the game before players have had a chance to experience these events through the eyes of their own characters.
