We act and talk In-Character (IC) as an orc would.   If any orc does not attempt at least basic role-playing s/he will be striped of his/her clan respect (Rank and Title), and severly beaten.  Also if this behavior presists they will be driven from the clan forced to roam the lands of Sosaria as a lone orc and to be treated as a ShadowClan enemy.  Power-Gaming (focusing on stats and skills or use of external macro programs) and acting out-of-character (OOC)  is not tolerated in Shadowclan.  It is very important that these ideas be followed in order to promote roleplaying and maintain the respect we have earned as roleplayers.
