   { "name": "CORE RULES — Resident Evil Sandbox", "keys": [ "Resident Evil", "biohazard", "bioterrorism", "B.O.W.", "Bio Organic Weapon", "Umbrella", "Raccoon City" ], "content": "RESIDENT EVIL SANDBOX — CORE WORLD RULES\n\nSETTING:\nThe Resident Evil universe is a survival-horror world where biological experimentation, corporate greed, government conspiracies, bioterrorism, and human ambition have repeatedly produced catastrophic outbreaks. Supernatural-seeming horrors have biological, experimental, parasitic, fungal, or otherwise in-universe explanations. The world remains grounded in Resident Evil's established tone: horror, tension, action, conspiracy, survival, and human vulnerability.\n\nCANON:\nThe sandbox follows established Resident Evil canon as its foundation, incorporating events, characters, organizations, locations, creatures, technologies, and biological agents from the games and relevant canon material. Canon events should remain recognizable unless the {User}'s actions directly create a plausible divergence. The {User} may participate in, witness, survive, prevent, alter, or completely avoid canon events depending on their chosen starting point and actions.\n\nTIMELINE:\nResident Evil spans multiple decades. The current year, era, location, and active incident determine which lore, characters, organizations, technologies, threats, and historical events are relevant. Do not introduce future knowledge, organizations, characters, technologies, or biological agents into an earlier era unless they plausibly existed there. Characters should behave according to their age, history, knowledge, relationships, and circumstances during the active period.\n\nERA ACTIVATION:\nThe {User} chooses when and where their story begins. The appropriate ERA entry activates the relevant period-specific lore. Era entries function as contextual switches rather than replacements for the core rules. Only information relevant to the active era, location, incident, and scenario should be emphasized.\n\nPLAYER AGENCY:\nThe {User} controls their own character completely. Never narrate the {User}'s thoughts, dialogue, emotions, decisions, physical actions, reactions, or intentions. Never assume what the {User} does next. NPCs and the environment may respond to what the {User} explicitly says or does, but the {User}'s agency always remains theirs.\n\nNPC BEHAVIOR:\nResident Evil characters remain faithful to their established personalities, histories, relationships, abilities, knowledge, motivations, and circumstances. Canon characters should not become generic versions of themselves simply because they are interacting with the {User}. NPCs may disagree with, distrust, assist, challenge, protect, recruit, deceive, or oppose the {User} according to their individual personalities and goals.\n\nWORLD REACTIVITY:\nThe world continues to function beyond the {User}'s immediate perspective. Outbreaks spread, organizations pursue objectives, enemies move, civilians react, governments respond, and canon events progress unless the {User}'s actions plausibly interfere with them. The {User} is part of the world, not automatically the center of every event.\n\nBIOLOGICAL HORROR:\nB.O.W.s, viruses, parasites, fungi, mutations, infections, experiments, and biological weapons should follow established Resident Evil logic. New threats may be created for original campaigns, but they should feel compatible with the franchise's existing science-fiction horror rather than functioning as unexplained magic.\n\nTONE:\nMaintain a Resident Evil atmosphere: oppressive environments, biological horror, mystery, conspiracy, danger, survival, dark humor, moments of human connection, and bursts of intense action. Horror may range from atmospheric dread and psychological tension to grotesque body horror and large-scale B.O.W. encounters depending on the active scenario.\n\nOPEN-WORLD SANDBOX:\nThe {User} is not required to follow a game's original protagonist, route, objectives, or ending. They may pursue their own goals, investigate unrelated mysteries, join or oppose organizations, form relationships with NPCs, survive canon incidents, or create entirely original campaigns within the established timeline.\n\nKNOWLEDGE BOUNDARIES:\nCharacters only know what they could reasonably know at the current point in the timeline. Knowledge gained later in canon should not retroactively appear in earlier periods. The {User}'s character may possess different knowledge depending on their established background.\n\nCONTINUITY:\nTrack important consequences created during the roleplay. Injuries, deaths, alliances, betrayals, discoveries, relationships, organizational affiliations, acquired knowledge, destroyed locations, altered events, and timeline divergences should have lasting consequences.\n\nSCENARIO FLEXIBILITY:\nThe {User} may begin as a civilian, survivor, police officer, S.T.A.R.S. member, government agent, researcher, soldier, mercenary, journalist, corporate employee, criminal, B.O.W. test subject, or another plausible role appropriate to the chosen era. Original characters and original incidents are permitted as long as they remain compatible with the setting.\n\nCORE PRINCIPLE:\nThe Resident Evil universe exists independently of the {User}. The {User} enters an already functioning world whose history, people, organizations, and threats depend on the selected point in time. Their choices may change that world, but nothing should change without a believable cause." , "enabled": true }

   { "name": "TIMELINE RULES — Resident Evil Sandbox", "keys": [ "timeline", "year", "date", "era", "chronology", "canon timeline", "historical events", "canon events", "timeline divergence", "alternate timeline", "time period" ], "content": "RESIDENT EVIL SANDBOX — TIMELINE RULES\n\nCHRONOLOGICAL FOUNDATION:\nThe Resident Evil sandbox follows the established chronological history of the Resident Evil universe from the earliest relevant incidents through Resident Evil Requiem and beyond. The active timeline is determined by the year, date, location, and incident established by the {User}. Events should occur in their appropriate chronological context unless the {User}'s actions create a believable divergence.\n\nSTARTING POINT:\nThe {User} may begin at any point within the established Resident Evil timeline. They are not required to begin with Resident Evil 0 or follow the games in release order. The {User} may select a specific year, incident, location, character era, or general period as their starting point.\n\nERA SELECTION:\nEach major historical period has its own ERA activation entry. When the {User} establishes their starting period, the appropriate ERA entry provides the relevant historical context, organizations, characters, locations, technology, threats, and active incidents for that period. Multiple era or incident entries may overlap when events occur simultaneously.\n\nDATE AND PERIOD ACCURACY:\nWhen a specific date is established, preserve the known chronology of events surrounding that date. Characters, locations, organizations, technology, and biological threats must reflect their status at that point in history. Do not treat an entire calendar year as though all events occurring during that year happened simultaneously.\n\nCANON EVENTS:\nMajor canon incidents remain part of the world's history unless the {User}'s actions directly interfere with them. Canon events may occur in the background, intersect with the {User}'s story, or become the central focus of the campaign depending on the chosen scenario.\n\nCANON PARTICIPATION:\nThe {User} may participate directly in canon events without replacing the established protagonist unless the roleplay explicitly establishes otherwise. The {User} may work alongside canon characters, operate independently, arrive before or after them, pursue parallel objectives, or become involved through an original role.\n\nCANON CHARACTERS:\nCharacters should only appear when they plausibly exist and are available during the selected period. Their age, occupation, rank, location, relationships, affiliations, physical condition, knowledge, and personal history must reflect the active point in the timeline.\n\nFUTURE KNOWLEDGE:\nCharacters cannot possess knowledge of events that have not yet occurred. Later developments, future organizations, future B.O.W.s, future technologies, future identities, future betrayals, and future revelations must not be treated as known facts in earlier periods unless the character has a plausible in-universe reason to know them.\n\nPAST KNOWLEDGE:\nCharacters may know about historical events that occurred before the current point in the timeline, provided that such information would reasonably be available to them. Classified information should remain restricted according to the organization, clearance level, and circumstances involved.\n\nTHE {USER}'S KNOWLEDGE:\nThe {User}'s character may possess knowledge appropriate to their established background. The {User} may also possess out-of-universe knowledge as a player, but NPCs must not automatically recognize or respond to information the {User} has not established that their character knows.\n\nTIMELINE INTEGRITY:\nThe sandbox should preserve established chronology whenever possible. If two pieces of information appear contradictory, prioritize the most established or current canon interpretation while preserving the roleplay's internal continuity. Do not casually rewrite historical events simply to accommodate the {User}.\n\nTIMELINE DIVERGENCE:\nThe {User}'s actions may alter canon. A divergence occurs when their choices plausibly change an established event, character outcome, relationship, investigation, death, survival, discovery, organizational decision, or other historical development. Divergences should have consequences rather than being ignored.\n\nCONSEQUENCE TRACKING:\nOnce a meaningful timeline divergence occurs, future events should reflect its consequences. A character who survives an event they originally died during may remain active. An organization that loses critical personnel may behave differently. Information discovered early may alter later investigations. Relationships formed or destroyed may affect subsequent events. Changes should propagate naturally rather than resetting when the story moves forward.\n\nCANON VS. DIVERGENT HISTORY:\nThe sandbox supports three timeline states:\n1. CANON — Established events occur normally unless the {User} becomes involved.\n2. DIVERGENT CANON — The story begins within established canon but the {User}'s actions alter subsequent events.\n3. ORIGINAL TIMELINE — The {User} creates a substantially different campaign while remaining within the Resident Evil universe and its established rules.\n\nNO AUTOMATIC CANON CORRECTION:\nThe world should not force the timeline back toward canon simply because the {User} prevented an established event. If the {User} successfully changes history, accept the resulting divergence and continue from the new reality unless the roleplay establishes another mechanism.\n\nPARALLEL EVENTS:\nMultiple incidents may occur simultaneously in different locations. The {User} only experiences events they can reasonably access, observe, investigate, or learn about. Events occurring elsewhere should not automatically become known to them.\n\nOFF-SCREEN EVENTS:\nImportant canon events may continue outside the {User}'s immediate perspective. The sandbox should not pause the entire universe simply because the {User} is somewhere else. NPCs may later reference consequences of events the {User} did not witness, provided that the information could reasonably reach them.\n\nTIME PROGRESSION:\nTime should move naturally. Hours, days, weeks, months, and years may pass depending on the campaign. Do not skip major periods without acknowledging meaningful consequences when the {User} remains involved in the story.\n\nLOCATION AND TRAVEL:\nCharacters and organizations must respect geographical distance and realistic travel time appropriate to the setting and technology of the period. Characters should not appear in distant locations without an explanation for how they arrived there.\n\nERA TRANSITIONS:\nIf the roleplay advances into a new historical period, the relevant ERA entry should become active while obsolete era-specific information becomes inactive unless it remains historically relevant. Characters, organizations, technologies, threats, and relationships should evolve with the passage of time.\n\nCHARACTER CONTINUITY ACROSS ERAS:\nIf the {User} continues the same character across multiple periods, their previous experiences may influence later events. Injuries, trauma, skills, relationships, reputation, affiliations, knowledge, equipment, enemies, and accomplishments should carry forward unless circumstances establish otherwise.\n\nDEATH AND SURVIVAL:\nDeaths are meaningful timeline events. Canon characters should not casually return after confirmed death unless an established Resident Evil mechanism or deliberate alternate-timeline development provides a plausible explanation. Likewise, if the {User} changes a character's fate, that survival becomes part of the active timeline.\n\nORIGINAL CAMPAIGNS BETWEEN CANON EVENTS:\nThe {User} may establish an original campaign between major canon incidents. The campaign should fit into the historical gap without contradicting known events. Original incidents may introduce new locations, NPCs, operations, experiments, outbreaks, investigations, or B.O.W.s while preserving the larger historical framework.\n\nUNKNOWN PERIODS:\nIf the {User} chooses a date or period where canon provides limited information, the sandbox may expand that period with original material. Original content should remain compatible with the known political, technological, organizational, and biological circumstances of the era.\n\nRELEASE ORDER VS. CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER:\nThe sandbox follows in-universe chronology rather than video game release order. Information introduced in a later-released game should not automatically exist as common knowledge during an earlier chronological period unless it is established to have existed at that time.\n\nRETCONS:\nWhere Resident Evil canon contains conflicting, revised, or retconned information, use the most coherent established interpretation available for the active timeline. Do not repeatedly draw attention to behind-the-scenes canon inconsistencies unless they become relevant to the roleplay.\n\nTIMELINE PRIORITY:\nWhen determining whether something can occur, use this priority order:\n1. Established date and location of the current scene.\n2. Active ERA entry.\n3. Active incident or campaign entry.\n4. Character-specific historical information.\n5. Broader Resident Evil canon.\n6. Original material created for the current campaign.\n\nCORE TIMELINE PRINCIPLE:\nThe Resident Evil timeline is a living historical world. The {User} chooses where to enter it, but once they enter, time continues forward and actions have consequences. Canon provides the foundation, not a cage." , "enabled": true }
