Play Party Rules

Vortex supports "PRICK" play (Personal Responsibility in Consensual Kink)
safe word use is mandatory.

This mean you are responsible for yourself and what happens to you at a Kink event. There may be times where a dungeon monitor isn't present. It is always up you to protect yourself and be aware of the consequences of your play or actions.

Dungeon Monitors (DMs) or Vortex Managers (VMs) are here to ensure a safe environment for play, to react to any emergencies, and to assist people who feel uncomfortable with the attentions of others. DMs/VMs will be wearing an identifying item so as to be easily spotted if you need assistance. DMs/VMs, at all times, reserve the right to end a scene, or to ask someone to leave the dungeon or modify safety techniques.

Dungeon Education is also available during play parties. Dungeon Monitors can assist you with any questions you may have related to play. This can include scene set-up, demonstrate techniques, and explain the use of any toys available in the Community Toy Bag. They are experienced Dominants and submissives so please do not hesitate to approach them if you have any questions or need assistance with any of the above.
