Guidelines
General
This event is entirely SFW. No NSFW content will be permitted in both the discord server and your creations. Please be very respectful of this policy.
Because this is a SFW event, all creators aged 13+ are permitted to participate
The main characters of your creations must have attended the schools listed on this site.
This event absolutely allows the creation of AU and canon-divergent pieces, as well as timeskip and pre-canon! We just ask that you follow the spirit of the exchange and create something your giftee would enjoy!
Characters outside of the Tokyo teams will be allowed as long as characters within the Tokyo teams remain the focus of the creation.
We ask that giftees do not request Dead-dove topics, which are heavily gory, dark, or disturbing themes.
This is the Head Mod's FIRST TIME running an event, and while they hope to have a well rounded and helpful mod team behind them, they sincerely ask for your patience and understanding should we come across any obstacles.
