The following are meant to help people, both New & Old, understand the proper and Expected behavior for visitors and patrons of Beauty's Castle Dungeon. This room is intended as a Virtual representation of activities and discussions that might take place in a Real-Time Dungeon*# with the addition of allowing Fanciful Characters and the occasional feats of 'torture' only possible in a Virtual realm. But don't let those more 'fantastical' aspects fool you! This room is Dedicated to the BDSM Lifestyle and with those small exceptions all are expected to stay within the overall theme of the room. And just as would happen in any RT Dungeon, those people who can not, and do not, abide by the expected customs and protocols will be promptly removed from the room.

For those new to this lifestyle or Exploring, you are Most welcome to join us (warm welcoming s and inviting gaze). Please feel free to ask questions, observe, and, if the spirit moves you, begin a wonderful journey into the BDSM Lifestyle! (enticing s) For those wishing for a more strict and 'pure' atmosphere and one less fanciful in nature, the Inner Sanctum (Citizens Only) will meet your needs, with posting restricted to BDSM discussions and scening based solely on RT constraints (i.e. no fanciful characters - human only, and scenes must conform to RT SSC rules of play).

This room is NOT a "PUB"! While we may expect a little 'off topic' chatter now and then, it better be while you are "cleaning your leathers", "practising your flogging", "displaying your submissive", "asking a question about BDSM" or some other appropriate activity. If you are not interested in learning about BDSM topics and just want to "chat", or "shoot the breeze" with friends, grab your subs/slaves and head upstairs to the Castle Courtyard, or to Club Soda for a brew or two, or a soak in the Hot Tub. Come on back down when you're ready to "play"!

(* The customs & protocols applied here are a conglomeration of RT and VT rules & etiquette derived from Mistress Beauty's broad RT and VT experience, and those of her peers. It is intended to provide a Healthy & Fun environment for people wishing to meet Virtually, but who desire the 'flavor' of RT. The fact that an individual's experience or preferences may differ from those stated here has no bearing on the enforcement of This Dungeon's etiquette. As with All Dungeons both Public and Private, patrons are expected to behave within the strictures of the posted rules, and the within the general etiquette expected of all upstanding Leather Folk.)

(# For the Castle's purpose of creating a Virtual representation of what an "RT Dungeon" is like, it should be noted that "Pay for Play" Dungeons were excluded due to the widely varying motivations and expectations of both the 'professionals' and the 'clients' who populate them.)



~~~~~ CUSTOMS ~~~~~
("not written in stone, but better than a sharp stick...")


1.This room is dedicated to Domination and submission, and the BDSM "Leather" lifestyle. People are expected to behave here as they would in a Real-Time BDSM situation, be it a Dungeon (public or private), play party, munch or other related situation.

2.The tenants of Safe, Sane & Consensual** apply. (see Protocols as well)(warning s)

3.Courtesy is Expected of All guests here. Respect, on the other hand, is earned.

4. We expect you to maintain an air of civility when posting in the room. Disagreeing agreeably is the goal for any conflicts of opinion that occur. All can learn from a Civil discussion of conflicting opinions.

5. Dominant names are generally indicated by the use of Capitalized handles, and submissive names are generally lowercased. While this has become the predominant convention here at the Beauty's Castle, and in other Virtual BDSM environments, it is Not a rule and many exceptions abound.

6. Submissives or slaves wishing to express signs of VT or RT Ownership often choose to indicate their status by enclosing the Dominant's name or initials in brackets { }. Ex: slave susan{Mistress Jade} or slave susan{MJ}. One should be aware, however, that this custom is also used by vanilla folk to signify any SO style relationship in VT. Asking one's status First is the often the Best and most prudent action when searching for a potential partner.

7. For Dominants, remember that submission is a Gift to be given Freely by prospective submissives & slaves. It is NOT 'taken'. Treat the submissives & slaves you encounter in these rooms with Courtesy, and remember that Consensual activities are one of the cornerstones of this lifestyle.

8. For submissives & potential slaves, no one can 'make' you do anything you don't wish to do. Feel free to refuse, courteously, any offer you may receive and, if you are concerned or afraid, Publicly state your feelings and concerns and if necessary call for a Dungeon Monitor. Of course once you have Offered your submission and it has been Accepted, the 'rules' change(weg).

9. People will discuss and often debate ideas of importance to them, sometimes quite passionately. While it is perfectly acceptable to have strong opinions, certain types of behavior, as outlined in the rules that follow, are NOT acceptable and will result in removal from the Dungeon, and the greater Castle if Necessary.

10. Scenes and discussions can, and should, take place at the same time (it adds to the RT atmosphere of the Dungeon). Neither has priority over the other, except during Officially Scheduled events. For a 'scene only' room, use the Rack Room.

11. Posting links to any "media" (i.e. photos, video, music, etc) is allowed when in the context of a related conversation or discussion. However, in order to avoid the room filling up with multi-media links, more than three (3) should be shared privately or posted in one of the adjoining BDSM rooms, like the Courtyard or Tower.



~~~~~ PROTOCOLS ~~~~~
("not written in stone, healthy to live by...")


1. The tenets of Safe, Sane and Consensual** apply here.

2. There is no "scat" play allowed (play involving fecal matter - it is Unsanitary!). Golden Showers and other "water sports" MUST be described in a way that would be SANITARY for such Public surroundings. IOW, you may Not make a "virtual mess" for other patrons.

3. People May "role play" and in the course of their "play" become characters of a fantastical nature, including animals and sometimes children. Please remember that this is an ADULT Chat site and a ROOM for Fetish Folk, and that it is populated by Adult Human Beings at PLAY. Animals can't type and there simply are NO Children or underage people here! If you don't like or care for a particular scene or style of play, LEAVE the room!

4. Cutting, branding, or piercing may be performed.

5. No private messages (PMs) are allowed without receiving prior public permission.

6. It's considered rude to interrupt a scene, by addressing the participants, either in public or private. Doing so may result in your being removed from the Dungeon. If you feel you Must interrupt, a Private Message(PM) to the Dominant is acceptable. PMs to submissives or slaves during a scene are NOT allowed.

7. 'Fantasy' characters are allowed (This means vampires, Werewolves, Mythical Creatures, 'speaking' animals, etc. *are* welcome here). HOWEVER, remember that while Handles and Characters may be Fanciful in nature, all posts Must reflect the actions and words of Mature Adult Beings in a BDSM Setting! Keep to the room's Theme!

8. NO Alcohol is permitted in the Dungeon Area Rooms. There is a wet bar stocked with exotic juices, coffees, teas and sodas. Stating that you are drunk, or behaving in a drunken manner will get you promptly removed from those rooms. Posting that you are drunk or "wasted" will result in immediate removal. If you want a 'drink' and/or a more boisterous social atmosphere, a short trip to Club Soda or the Citizen's Tap Room will satisfy your desires.

9. Personal attacks, Flaming or Flame Wars will not be tolerated;
  • Flame: a personal attack as opposed to an honest debate on the issues.
  • Flame-War: a series of 'flames'(see above) exchanged between chatters that results in disrupting the room and contributing nothing of value.
  • Personal Attacks: Any statements that are written in a derogatory manner in order to discredit a person or their views, but Lacking any constructive comments or valid points to 'backup' their claims. These usually include cursing and other expletive-style statements which are intended to 'hurt' or insult with No relevant content; Statements that include curse or swear words in a negative manner to define either a person or a person's relationship to an issue. Statements of a derogatory nature which refer to a person's race, creed, color, age, national origin or sexual orientation.

    10. Be they Virtual or RT, any threats or acts of violence towards an UNconsenting party will NOT be tolerated@ .

    11. Bigotry, Racism, Sexism (you know what I mean) and other such discriminatory attitudes will NOT be tolerated@ . Re-Read the opening pages if you have forgotten them. If you have such unsocial inclinations Go Elsewhere as they will get you promptly removed from our establishment.

    (** Consensual in Virtual-Time(VT) is assumed at ALL times unless an individual specifically requests in Public that a scene or other interaction is Not consensual and requires a Dungeon Monitor's intervention. Safe & Sane in VT will be considered identical to RT (with reasonable allowances for Mythical and Imaginative scenarios) and participants' actions in VT should reflect this.)

    (@ Not Tolerated: means that if you are found behaving like an ignorant fool it will get you removed from the Dungeon, and/or the Castle grounds, for a period of 24hrs. or more including the possibility of permanent loss of access .)
