Content Warnings

as a general disclaimer, CROWNS is history-inspired and therefore will not feature explicit elements of racism, sexism, religious intolerance, and so forth. while we understand characters may have prejudices that arise from these issues’ pervasiveness in the setting, members must prioritize our community’s comfort and inclusivity over historical accuracy. we aim to cultivate a space that is welcoming for all members and characters, regardless of their identities, abilities, or backgrounds. though certain topics may not be written in CROWNS, we nonetheless acknowledge and are respectful of their existences and legacies, both historically and in the present.

ANYTHING ON THE FOLLOWING LISTS OF ITEMS SHOULD BE TAGGED WITH “[TOPIC] CW” when it occurs, without exception.

additionally, members should be judicious and considerate when discussing these sensitive topics out of character. not all members are comfortable with their portrayal or mention; while anyone can blacklist posts, no one should be uncomfortable in the shared server. we also ask that members use an abundance of caution and are respectful when choosing to use these subjects in your plots and writing.

banned topics—subjects which should not be written in crowns—are detailed at the bottom of the page. members should not write their characters engaging in these topics on the dash, though we do not prohibit mentioning them as background details as long as they are done so thoughtfully and respectfully. if the admins notice a banned topic is not being handled with diligence and care, we will ask the member to revise and/or remove the topic from their character’s backstory. use in-text content warnings when mentioning any banned topics (in the application, on biography pages, and in any posts where the topic is reference).

if you wish to add a content warning item, contact the main or the admins directly. no explanation is required to add to the content warning list; ban requests are subject to admin discretion.
