No holy water, no garlic spray, no repeated scrolls of turning on anyone that you've not been expressly sicc'ed on by clan leadership. Put very simply, anything beyond biting and robbing on other vampires is prohibited. 2 :: THOU SHALT NOT bite and rob your fellow clan mates. Obviously only stringently applies once you know your fellow clan mates by in-city names, before then applies to publically known clan members. Shard-Splinter and Shard-Shard robbing is a waste of AP, Splinter-Shard robbing will get you exiled without much of a second thought, but biting is largely tolerated. Mostly it'll probably prompt us asking you why you're biting vampires at all. 3 :: THOU SHALT be attacked by thine fellow clan mates if they were paid for it. Yes, seriously. And it happens occasionally, so you better believe it. 4 :: YOU ARE SHUNNED FROM THE WORLD, vampire, you have no rights other than to beg for mercy if overwhelmed by an enemy, and thou may not strike back, for thou art deserving of every bloodpint lost. See point 1. No weapon is ever to be raised against anyone that's not being targetted in context of a contract, and then only to the degree the contract demands. After the contract is done, the contract is done. No touchie the target, period. 5 :: THOU SHALT bleed, and thou shallt learn to love it, else be broken. Pretty simple, really. Don't love your blood, it'll wane. 6 :: THOU SHALT NOT believe the clan to be involved in anything. We have no friends and enemies, and neither shallt you upon joining. Our enemy is fate and she will always shatter us - but she shall never win. Clan wars do not exist for the Splinters of Dusk. See points #1 and #4. 7 :: THOU SHALT NOT tell others of the members of this clan. It is all protection we can offer. You're welcome to tell the world that you're a member of the Splinters of Dusk, but unless you know for absolute certain that another member of this clan is open with their affiliation, you're asking for exile if you as much as breathe their name to a non-gekkonid. 8 :: THOU SHALT NOT sire vampires, for they give blood. If thou are found to have your childer count increase during thine time with Splinters of Dusk, thou will bleed. This is actually laxer than stated. Essentially, you should minimise the use of your biter link. Ideally, turn it off. But you're welcome to use it occasionally to get friends into the game - at a rate of up to around one person per month, no one will bite your head off. Chances are we won't even notice.
