A forceful transformation refers to the act of forcibly changing a player's physical form into a different morphology. Forced Transformation Rules: 1. A player can only be forcefully transformed if the perpetrators have a valid PK (Player Kill) reason for targeting the victim. 2. Non-human transformations can only be reversed using in-game mechanics; roleplay-based reversals are not allowed. For example, if a human is transformed into a Super Mutant, they must utilize the Purity Chamber in-game to revert back to their human form. No alternative methods are permitted. 3. Self-inflicted PK (Player Kill) cannot be used as a means to revert to the original morphology. 4. "Ghoulification" is not considered a forceful transformation and can be performed by any faction with the necessary in-game abilities. People however can not unconsensially ghoulify others without a faction perk. Reason: Ghouls are still considered humans, and ghoulism can be cured through the use of the Purity Chamber. Section B:Unique Faction Rules New California Republic (NCR) - Admission Submission: Any character sent to the 'NCRCF' must have an admissions submission made within 24 hours of their arrival. Failure to submit the admission within this timeframe will result in the nullification of the entire process and no penalty for the victim character. - NCR can not use mustard gas during NLR in wars/conquests. - Hanging for Chems: During a mugging incident, if the NCR confiscates only chems from a person, they are allowed to hang them on the gallows, bypassing the rule against killing after the mugging. It's important to note that the NCR does not necessarily need to mug the person in order to carry out the hanging. However, this privilege of hanging is limited to the confiscation of illegal chems exclusively. Outcast - Outcast can Tech Mug just like Brotherhood of Steel Unity - Conversion into Super Mutant: It is permissible to forcibly convert an individual into a Super Mutant, but only if a Player Kill (PK) reason exists for said person. - Ghoulifying: Unity can ghoulify individuals. All Unity involved gain a PK reason for a forceful transformation. - Behemoth Control: The faction known as Unity possesses the exclusive ability to control the Behemoth as long as they have a player who actively controls it within their faction. - Unity Centaurs and Optional KOS: Unity Centaurs are considered Optional Kill on Sight (OKOS), unless they are accompanied by a member of the Unity faction wearing armor. Talon Company - Talon can PK people for other factions in exchange for caps in a contract. The contract HAS to be approved by Staff Council with a cap minimum. Talon suffers the consequences for any revenge PKs/conquests/wars for the contract. The PK must be performed in their base. The faction hiring Talon CANNOT perform the PK themselves now. Talon MAY NOT revenge or Cover-Up PK over potential contract discussions. Consequences of the contract will also effect the contractors with direct proof of their involvement. Think Tank - Brain Bank: The Think Tank faction has the capability to store individuals' brains in the brain bank. This allows for the revival of someone who previously stored their brain in the bank. However, this revival process requires a body from a willing or unwilling victim (with a PK reason) to transfer the brain into. The victim will then be subject to a PK, and the previously deceased individual will be brought back to life. It's important to note that this process does not turn the user into a Lobotomite at any point. Additionally, any previous PK reasons on the resurrected person will be cleared. - Forceful Conversion into Lobotomite: It is permitted to forcibly convert an individual into a Lobotomite, but only if there is a valid Player Kill (PK) reason for doing so. - Lobotomites and Defection: Lobotomites/Lobotomite Super Mutants are not permitted to defect from the BigMT faction on their own accord or harm the faction of their own free will. - Think Tanks (Brain Jars) and FearRP/Hacking CombatRP: Think Tanks (Brain Jars) are exempt from FearRP and hacking combatRP rolls. - Brain Destruction and PK: If an individual has been Brain Banked and the Think Tank faction has a PK reason on them (or if it's an approved circumstance by the Staff Council), they have the authority to destroy the brain, resulting in a PK without the need for a kidnapping. However, this PK must be approved by a Think Tank High Command member, and the reason for the PK must have been obtained while the perpetrator was a part of the Think Tank faction. The Enclave - Unmutifying Mutants: The Enclave is not required to have a PK reason in order to reverse the mutation process and unmutify a mutant. All Enclave involved gain a PK reason for a forceful transformation. - Unghoulifying Ghouls: The Enclave has the authority to unghoulify individuals without the need for a PK reason. All Enclave involved gain a PK reason for a forceful transformation. - Creating Centaurs: The Enclave must possess a PK reason in order to transform individuals into Centaurs.

Caesar's Legion - Crucifixion during Mugging: During a mugging, if the Legion chooses to confiscate only chems from a person, they are allowed to crucify them, thereby bypassing the rule against killing after the mugging. It's important to note that the Legion is not required to engage in the act of mugging in order to carry out a crucifixion. However, this authorization for crucifixion is limited to the confiscation of illegal chems exclusively. - Frumentarii Name Change: Legion Frumentarii members have the option to change their names for the purpose of infiltration, subject to approval from the Staff Council. This name change is intended to support their efforts in carrying out successful infiltration operations.

You must either sell them to the "slave vendor" at the start or enslave them for the full time and then let them go. Born-in Rules Born-in status defines a character whom was born directly into a faction and therefore is unable to defect from the faction without authority of it's high command. This policy serves as both a potential event tool and or faction perk in specific circumstances. Legacy Born In Factions - All Enclave, Think Tank, Vault-Tec, Outcast, PLA, and Brotherhood of Steel members are born in if recruited via legacy born in applications on forums. No matter how you join merchants you are not allowed to defect either due to economy restraints. Legacy Born in Whitelists - People mutified in/into Unity, Tlalocan Robots, MM AO Robots, House Securitrons, Think Tank Lobotomites, Robobrains, and WBOS Calculators are legacy born in the moment they become that role. Cores Mugging - Legion may chem mug people without a PK reason being put on them.

Furthermore, Ghosts cannot attack Think Tank members. Fearless Classes - If a member of the "fearless" class (robots, creatures, ghosts, etc) is both handcuffed and ziptied, they are considered to be in FearRP as long as both restraints are applied. In the event that a fearless class member is knocked out, they must wait for the kidnapper to handcuff and ziptie them before taking any further action.

To access a robot's inventory, hacking is required. - Forceful Hacking: To forcefully hack a robot, two players must surround the robot, and one of them can initiate the hacking process with a /me command. Both the player and the robot then roll. If the robot wins the roll, they have the option to escape or initiate combat. If the hacker wins the roll, the robot must comply with the hacker's commands until its demise. If the hacker fails the roll, no other group members can attempt to hack the robot, and engagement in combat is only permissible if the robot initiates it. - Passive Hacking: To hack a robot passively, the hacker must request permission from the robot to initiate the hack and then perform a /me command.

Failure to meet these requirements will result in the faction losing their base privileges. 4.
