Community Rules.

Relieging within Labyrinth is not something we take lightly. The relationship between a liege and their minion is an important part of our family structure, and changing that relationship should happen only when there is a genuine reason to do so.

If you feel that a reliege is necessary, you must submit a Reliege Request Form through our website. Once submitted, the situation will be reviewed by the Queen (Layla), your current liege, and your Line Head. Depending on the circumstances, we may first attempt to resolve the issues between you and your liege before approving a change.

Submitting a request does not guarantee that a reliege will be approved.

If a reliege is approved, the Queen (Layla) and your Line Head will determine your new liege. To maintain line integrity, you will normally be placed with another liege within your existing line. A reliege should not be viewed as a way to choose a new liege or move into another line.

The purpose of relieging is to provide a solution when a liege-and-minion relationship genuinely cannot continue—not to rearrange family lines based on friendships, relationships, or personal preference.

We understand that sometimes the grass may seem greener on the other side, which is one reason we encourage everyone to explore and tour other clans before deciding to join Labyrinth.

If you choose to leave and later realize that Labyrinth is where you want to be, you are welcome to return provided that you left the family on good terms. We understand that people sometimes need to explore other options to discover where they truly belong.

However, Labyrinth is not a revolving door. If you leave and return twice, there will not be a third opportunity to rejoin. Loyalty, commitment, and stability are important parts of what makes a family strong, and we ask every member to take the decision to leave seriously.

Returning members: When rejoining Labyrinth, you will be placed back under your previous liege whenever possible. If that is not possible, you will be placed under a new liege within the same line to preserve line integrity. Leaving Labyrinth and later returning cannot be used as a way to change your liege or move into a different line.

We are all part of the same family and should support one another—not hunt or attempt to recruit members from within Labyrinth into another liege or line.

If a family member tells you they are unhappy with their current liege or line, encourage them to speak up and try to resolve the situation rather than using it as an opportunity to recruit them.

If they do not feel comfortable speaking directly with their liege or Line Head, encourage them to contact the Queen of the clan. The Queen can listen to their concerns, help mediate the situation, and work with everyone involved to find an appropriate solution.

Our goal: Support one another and resolve concerns in a way that protects both the individual and the integrity of the family and its lines.

We strongly discourage random biting. Sending someone a bite request without first speaking to them and receiving their permission is considered poor etiquette. It can reflect badly on you, the Labyrinth Family, and the Bloodlines community as a whole.

Always ask before requesting a bite. If the person agrees, you may then send the request. Afterward, it is good etiquette to offer them a bite in return so they have an opportunity to restore the vitals they lost by allowing you to bite them.

Please remember: There is a person behind every avatar. Be respectful and communicate first.

Your soul is yours to choose who holds, regardless of your liege, line, or clan affiliation. A liege may never demand that you give them your soul simply because you are lieged to them.

If you choose to move your soul to someone else, a soul-for-soul trade should be arranged. If Electrum was used to retrieve your soul, appropriate compensation for the Electrum must be given if requested.

HUD purchase exception: When a liege purchases your Bloodlines HUD for you, your soul is initially given to the liege who purchased it as part of that agreement. If you later wish to move your soul to someone else, you may request a soul trade to have it transferred.

Soul ownership and lieging are separate relationships, and both should always be handled with respect and clear communication.

All relationships within our family deserve respect. Whether friendship, partnership, family, or liege/minion relationships, healthy communication and clear boundaries are important. Please respect the relationships and commitments of others, avoid unnecessary interference, and be mindful of boundaries.

Labyrinth does not police personal disputes between clan members that take place outside Second Life, including on platforms such as Facebook, Discord, Skype, text messages, or other forms of social media.

We are all adults and are free to express ourselves and handle our personal relationships as we choose. However, what happens outside Second Life can become a concern when it begins to negatively affect Labyrinth or the members within it.

If a member consistently creates unnecessary drama, harasses or targets others, or engages in excessively negative behavior outside Second Life that carries over into the family or creates ongoing issues within the group, that behavior may be considered when evaluating their standing within Labyrinth. It may also affect their ability to advance or hold positions of greater responsibility within the family.

Haunt signs are not hunting or recruitment areas. You are welcome to socialize, meet new people, and allow genuine friendships to form naturally.

Please give people appropriate space and do not use haunt areas as an opportunity to actively seek out or recruit members.
