This Code of Conduct establishes that players, game masters, organizers, and all others participating in an official Skydawn Game Studios event or project (“Participants”) have the right to a healthy and safe environment. This Code of Conduct states the following expectations for how Participants will conduct themselves.

  • Respect and Equality: Participants will be treated fairly and with respect, without regard for gender/identity, race, nationality, ethnicity, sexual orientation, disability, neuro(a)typicality, physical appearance, religion or absence thereof.
  • No Harassment: Participants will maintain an environment free from physical, verbal, emotional, or sexual harassment. Demeaning, discriminatory, abusive, or harassing behavior will not be tolerated.

  • Sensitive Topics: If the project or event involves sensitive or uncomfortable topics, this should be clear when it is first described to the Participants. Individuals have the right to express discomfort or sensitivity to topics and to request that the topics no longer be presented to them.

Reporting Violations

All Participants are responsible for reporting any violation of this Code of Conduct that they witness, regardless of whether the improper conduct was directed at them. When a violation is witnessed, the following process should be followed*:

  1. SPEAK UP against the behavior as it’s happening, if you feel comfortable doing so – especially if it is directed at someone else. Ask the person(s) to cease the problematic behavior and remind them of the Code of Conduct. Remain calm and professional.
  2. DOCUMENT what took place with screen captures and first-hand accounts when possible. Note the date and time when it took place, the perpetrator, anyone else present, what was said, and whether this is an ongoing or repeat situation.
  3. REPORT what took place to an Organizer or other responsible parties

Enforcement

If you are found to have violated these rules and failed to remedy this violation after a warning, Skydawn Game Studios may take action against you, including banning you from official project, organized play, and other official events. In case of severe violations, Skydawn Game Studios may take these actions without issuing a prior warning.
