There are several rules of the Death note that I believe will be important for those who will be playing the Death note roleplay.

I just think some of you should know exactly how to use the Death note in certain situations.

It is very important to know how to kill someone using disease, or how to save someone's life using the Death note.
The following are important rules you all should know:

1. The DEATH NOTE will be rendered useless if the victim’s name is misspelled four times.
(As in, if you misspell someones name 4 times, the Death note will fail to work)

2. 1. You may also write the cause and/or details of death prior to filling in the name of the individual. Be sure to insert the name in front of the written cause of death. You have about 19 days (according to the human calendar) in order to fill in a name.

3. As you see above, the time and conditions of death can be changed, but once the victim’s name has been written, the individual’s death can never be avoided.

4. 1. If you lose the Death Note or have it stolen, you will lose its ownership unless you retrieve it within 490 days.

5. When the owner of the Death Note dies while the Note is being lent, its ownership will be transferred to the person who is holding it at that time.

6. When the same name is written on more than two Death Notes the Note which was first filled in will take effect, regard less of the time of death.
6.5. If writing the same name on more than two Death Notes is completed within a 0.06 – second difference, it is regarded as simultaneous; the Death Note will not take effect and the individual written will not die.

7. In order to see the names and life spans of humans by using the eye power of the god of death, the owner must look at more than half of that person’s face. When looking from top to bottom, he must look at least from the head to the nose. If he looks at only the eyes and under, he will not be able to see the person’s name and life span. Also, even though some parts of the face, for example the eyes, nose or mouth are hidden, if he can basically see the whole face, he will be able to see the person’s name and life span. It is still not clear how much exposure is needed to tell that name and life span, and this needs to be verified.
7.5. If above conditions are met, names and life spans can be seen through photos and pictures, no matter how old they are. But this is sometimes influenced by the vividness and size. Also, names and life spans cannot be seen by face drawings, however realistic they may be

Disease rules

1. If you write, “die of disease” with a specific disease’s name and the person’s time of death, there must be a sufficient amount of time for the disease to progress. If the set time is too tight, the victim will die of a heart attack after 6 minutes and 40 seconds after completing the Death Note.

2. If you write, “die of disease” for the cause of death, but only write a specific time of death without the actually name of disease, the human will die from an adequate disease. But the Death Note can only operate within 23 days (in the human calendar). This is called the 23-day rule.


How to Use: XXVIII

1. If you write, “die of disease” like before with a specific disease’s name, but without a specific time, if it takes more than 24 days for the human to die the 23-day rule will not take effect and the human will die at an adequate time depending on the disease.

2. When rewriting the cause and/or details of death it must be done within 6 minutes and 40 seconds. You cannot change the victim’s time of death, however soon it may be.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

8. You cannot kill humans at the age of 124 over with the Death Note.
8.5. You cannot kill humans with less than 12 minutes of life left (in human calculations).

9. The number of pages of the Death Note will never run out.

10.
1. The owner of the Death Note cannot be killed by a god of death who is living in the wold of the gods of death.

2. Also, a god of death who comes to the human world, in the objective to kill the owner of the Death Note, will not be able to do so.

3. Only a god of death that has passed on their Death Note to a human is able to kill the owner of the Death Note.

11. If a Death Note owner accidentally misspells a name four times, that person will be free from being killed by the Death Note. However, if they intentionally misspell the name four times, the Death Note owner will die.

12. The person whose name was misspelled four times on purpose will not be free of death by a Death Note.

13. You will lose memory of the Death Note when losing its ownership. But you can regain this memory by either obtaining the ownership once again or by touching the Death Note. This can be done up to 6 times per Death Note.

14. If the 6 times are exceeded, the person’s memory of the Death Note will not return and they will have to use it without any previous memory of it.

15. It is useless trying to erase names written in the Death Note with erasers or white-out.

16. There are laws in the world of gods of death. If a god of death should break the law, there are 9 levels of severity starting at Level 8 and going up to Level 1 plus the Extreme Level. For severity levels about 3 the god of death will be killed after being punished.

17. For example, killing a human without using the DEATH NOTE is considered as the Extreme Level

18. Only 6 DEATH NOTEs are allowed to exist at a time in the human world. Of course, the DEATH NOTE that the god of death owns dose not count. This means only 6 gods of death that have passed on their DEATH NOTE to humans can stay in the human world.

19. In the event that there are more than 6 DEATH NOTEs in the human world, only the first 6 DEATH NOTEs that have been delivered to humans will have effect.

20. The seventh DEATH NOTE will not become active until one of the other 6 DEATH NOTEs is burned up, or a god of death takes one of them back to the world of god of death.

21. When you write multiple names in the DEATH NOTE and then write down even one cause of death within 40 human seconds from writing the first victims name, the cause will take effect for all the written names.

22. In the DEATH NOTE you cannot set the death date longer than the victim’s original life span. Even if the victim’s death is set in the DEATH NOTE beyond his/her original life span, the victim will die before the set time.

23. After a god of death has brought the DEATH NOTE to the human world and given its ownership to a human, the god of death may have the right to kill the human using his/her own DEATH NOTE for reasons such as disliking the owner.

24.
1. Once the victim’s name, cause of death and situation of death have been written down in the DEATH NOTE, this death will still take place even if that DEATH NOTE or the part of the note in which it has been written is destroyed, for example, burned into ashes, before the stated time of death.

2. If the victim’s name has been written and then the DEATH NOTE is destroyed in the middle of writing the cause of death, the victim will be killed by heart attack in 40 seconds after writing the name.

3. If the victim’s name and cause of death have been written and the middle of writing the situation of death, then the victim will be killed within 6 minutes and 40 seconds via the stated cause of death if the cause is possible within that period of time, but otherwise, the victim will die by heart attack.

25. In the world of gods of death there are a few copies of what humans may call user handbook for using the DEATH NOTE in the human world. However, the guidebook is not allowed to be delivered to humans.

26. It is perfectly okay for gods of death to read the guidebook for him/herself and teach humans about its contents, no matter what the content may be.

27.
1. All humans, without exception, eventually die.

2. After they die, the place they go is MU (nothingness).

3. Once dead, they can never come back to life.


That is a list of several rules that all of you playing this game must know.
for the lucky six of us that do get a Death note, please have mercy on the one who just gave you these useful tips.
I hope they help ^_^
