-====== The Golden Rules ======

-===== Your Character, Your Choice =====
-{{page>[[:The Golden Rules:Your Character, Your Choice]]&noheader&inline}}
-The rules of Meat Space are intentionally kept as detached from physical appearance as possible. [Players] should feel empowered to create and represent their [Characters] however they wish. What your [Character] wears, looks like, carries or how they present themselves is ultimately a matter of personal taste, and your aesthetic preferences should take priority.\\
-\\
-This extends to gender expression and identity. While some [Races] may exhibit sexual dimorphism, it is up to each [Player] to decide how their [Character] looks, presents themselves and expresses who they are. These choices belong to the [Player] and should not be dictated by others at the table. The 'sapes of the Federation don't give a fuck, so neither should you.\\
-===== Absolute Cinema =====
-{{page>[[:The Golden Rules:Absolute Cinema]]&noheader&inline}}
-When playing Meat Space, the goal should be to tell a memorable and cinematic story together. The rules of the game often encourage [Players] to build [Characters] who specialise in different skills and roles. While some [Characters] may be capable generalists, most spacer crews are made up of individuals who excel in different areas, each with opportunities to shine where nobody else can.\\
-\\
-Meat Space is designed to create memorable moments and celebrate the strengths of individual [Characters]. When your moment arrives, embrace it and enjoy the spotlight. When it is someone else's turn to shine, sit back and enjoy the show. It is perfectly normal for a pair of combat specialists to dominate a firefight, a pilot and mechanic to save the ship, or a suit and legal wizard to talk their way out of a tricky situation. Great stories are built from great scenes, and every [Character] deserves their moment, but not every [Character] has to contribute equally to every moment.\\
-===== Mechanics Are Fun! =====
-{{page>[[:The Golden Rules:Mechanics Are Fun!]]&noheader&inline}}
-Meat Space is a mechanically rich game by design. The rules, [Abilities], [Items] and many other [Character] options exist to create memorable moments and give each [Character] opportunities to shine. [Players] should celebrate those moments, whether that's using a signature [Ability], overcoming a challenge they are uniquely suited for or finally finding the perfect opportunity to use an [Item] they've been saving for just the right moment.\\
-\\
-Roleplay and acting are important parts of telling a story, but so are the mechanics that support it. Be loud and proud about your [Dice], [Abilities] and clever plays. The game part of a TTRPG is meant to be enjoyed and shared with others, just as much as the cool voices and acting skills the [Players] bring to the table. Rather than rushing past the mechanics, embrace them and invite the rest of the table to celebrate the cool things your [Character] can do.\\
