Inspired by the popular anime Sailor Moon and its Moon Kingdom (seen in the above placeholder image), the Moon Palace is a fictional location on Earth's Moon powered by magic. It exists within a magical bubble that contains and maintains life. It is the residence of the Moon Monarch Mavis DeLuna, crowned by divine right by the goddess Selene, and their chosen Lunar Guardians.Mavis (often referred to as "Their Majesty") and the Lunar Guardians permanently live here, with the palace's magic connecting them to other worlds they've visited and/or protected. It also serves as a base, being the closest location to protect planet Earth and its surrounding galaxy. People and creatures displaced or seeking refuge from their worlds often visit or reside here.Mavis rules the Moon Palace with benevolence and kindness. The palace has many amenities and is luxurious and grand, so that its residents and the Monarch within it live in comfort and stability. Some people stay temporarily, then move on when they are ready; others decide to make the palace their permanent home, to escape lives of stress or strife and find lasting peace.Able-bodied residents are requested to help maintain the palace and its amenities at least once while they stay. In return they are given free room and board, and extracurricular activities to be pursued at their leisure. Residents of the Moon Palace are never left going without; it acts as a safe haven, almost a small utopia. However, it is not without flaws, and must be protected from outside sources that seek to shatter its protective bubble and disrupt the peace.In addition to the palace residents, large numbers of Clefairy (from the anime and popular video game series Pokémon) and its evolutions reside on the Moon, and have also integrated into the palace's peaceful life. In its source material, Clefairy are rumored to be extraterrestrial creatures hailing from the Moon itself.

Below is a list of commonly asked questions directed at Mavis. These may be regarding streams, content creation, and anything related. If you have a question, it may be answered here!

How is Mavis's name pronounced?

MAV-is, not MAY-vis. Look up the sound that "æ" makes, and that is how you pronounce the "A" in Mavis's name.

What programs does Mavis use to stream/make videos?

Mavis uses OBS Studio to broadcast on Twitch. Additional programs they use are BikuBot, StreamLabels, Spotify, and Mix It Up. Mavis uses CapCut for video editing.For VTubing/Virtual Content Creation, they use VSeeFace with VNyan. Face tracking is done through iFacialMocap on an iPhone 11. For more information on VTubing and Virtual Content Creation, check out this document.

Is Mavis available for collabs?

If you are a brand or sponsor interested in working with Mavis, feel free to contact them at [email protected].Mavis collaborates with people they are familiar with such as friends and teammates on the stream teams/groups they are on. Mavis does not do "blind" collabs, and will only collaborate with someone who they have spoken to or have some level of familiarity. They do not take inquiries for collabs and will not appear on any streams where they are unfamiliar with the host.Additionally, Mavis will not appear on talk shows or accept invitations to be a guest on talk shows/streams/podcasts to discuss their identity, social issues, or their political stances. They are not interested in doing so. The exception to this is them reaching out to individuals hosting and expressing their own interest in joining.We are extremely grateful and thankful for anyone who invites Mavis to participate on their streams, or wishes to be a part of our community. While we are not opposed to opening our doors to new individuals on occasion, this is a choice made for Mavis's personal comfort and safety. Thank you for understanding.

Why is the Moon Palace 18+ only?

Mavis is an adult in their 30s. They have zero interest in interacting with minors online.If you are a minor on the internet, understand that adult spaces that keep minors out are not being intentionally cruel or mean to you- it's for your safety. Consider learning to protect yourself from potential predators and understanding how grooming can affect people online.Despite being 18+, the Moon Palace remains a largely SFW space to comply with platform ToS, such as Twitch and Discord.

Why does the Moon Palace have so many rules?!

Our rules are meant as preventative measures; we want to shut down any bigoted or harmful behaviors before they start. If someone has a problem with our rules, boundaries, or requests to be a decent human being, then they are more than welcome to simply not interact with the space and move on to other things that are more fulfilling for them.If you think we have "too many rules" or "the list is too long," then you can simply find another space to be a part of that will be better suited for you. It is absolutely okay to decide you don't align with a space's rules/boundaries and decide that something is not for you. Practicing curating your experience online is an important skill.

DISCLAIMER: This is a general guide for interacting with streamers on Twitch, whether you are a viewer or a streamer yourself. Forms of Twitch Etiquette are often "unspoken" rules that people are usually completely unaware of and unfairly penalized for. This guide's purpose is to help spread awareness of Twitch Etiquette, and encourage positive interaction with streamers. This can apply to other streaming platforms such as YouTube, and not just Twitch.The way individual streamers will handle or follow etiquette is entirely subjective and may vary from one individual to another. These rules are not set in stone, but good to use as a reference or a general rule of thumb.

- Do not violate the Twitch Terms of Service or any other streaming/video platform's Terms of Service.- Always check if the streamer you are watching has rules. Different channels will have various different rules, or lack thereof.- Do not bring up numbers such as viewer count. Most streamers do not like to hear how many viewers they have. If they choose to, they can see the number from their dashboard just fine.- Never advertise your own channel/content, or ask to be promoted or "shouted out" by the streamer. Become a valued member of the community, and the streamer is more likely to check you out on their own. Avoid asking how to get more viewers to your channel. Growth is a gradual process. You cannot make people watch you or your content.- DO NOT call out lurkers that you see in the user list. They chose to lurk, and they can delurk themselves and chat if they choose. At that point, you can say hi to them- otherwise, calling out lurkers is considered rude. It can cause anxiety and drive those individuals away.- Avoid unhealthy parasocial interaction and respect a streamer/creator's boundaries. By nature, interacting with streamers can be a form of parasocial interaction. However, interacting with a content creator does not automatically make you friends with them. Understand that streamers have personal lives, and often separate them from their online life. What you see on streams and social media is curated, and what a person chooses to show the public.- If a streamer is playing a multiplayer game, avoid asking to join- unless they have stated that they are playing with viewers. Streamers can and will often play games with their communities to bond and create rapport with their audience. If a streamer has not indicated that their game is open to viewers, you may ask if they are accepting additional players- but respect their boundaries if they say no.- Do not argue a time out in the channel. You’ll probably end up getting timed out again. If there is a misunderstanding, streamers will accept polite inbox messages to help resolve any issues.- If you are timed out for caps, faces, too many symbols, and posting links, chances are the streamer has a bot with filters on. Most mods do not enforce manual time-outs for these instances.- Avoid talking about other streamers inside another stream, even if they are friends. It is considered rude. If the streamer themselves invites or starts said discussion, then it's okay!- If you see a streamer you recognize in someone else’s channel, please refrain from asking when they will stream again, or when they will do (insert thing here) again. Streamers deserve to have time off and don't always want to talk about their streams. They are people with lives, feelings, and outside hobbies just like you.- If you want to know when a streamer is live, follow their channel, their social media pages, and if they have one, their Discord. Streamers usually post when they go live on their other platforms to inform all of their followers!- Avoid posting in a streamer's chat that you are leaving to watch another stream. Doing this is often considered rude by some streamers.- Avoid posting in a streamer's chat that you are leaving to start your own stream. Doing this can be considered rude and/or interpreted as self-promotion.- If the streamer has information below their stream (such as panels), read them! These panels usually contain a lot of information, such as PC Specs, FAQ, Rules, and Links!- Never tell a streamer to play a different game than the current one they are playing. If you only follow the streamer for one game, return at a later time to watch them play the one game you want to see. The channel is theirs, so they can stream whatever they choose.- Channels will often have a title below their video. It will almost always tell you what the streamer is playing, or what they plan on doing during the broadcast.- Donating to, subscribing to, or following a streamer does not entitle you to special treatment, or to make demands. You are a viewer, and you are not above the rules for any reason. Respect a streamer and their space(s) at all times.

Etiquette for Streamers using Virtual Avatars

What is a VTuber? The term "VTuber" is short for "Virtual YouTuber," but this term has evolved over time to mean any content creator using a virtual avatar instead of their real/"IRL" face (facecam). Other terms for VTubers include VStreamer or VArtist. The "V" in these terms stands for "Virtual." However, Mavis personally does not identify with the rest of the "VTuber" sphere, and chooses to call themselves a Virtual Content Creator instead.Many content creators choose to use an avatar for a number of reasons, such as privacy and accessibility. While Virtual Creators are real people, they are often playing characters displayed via their virtual avatar. Some of these users with avatars have "lore," a term used to define a backstory for their character or why that character exists.Some Virtual Creators will remain strictly "in-character" (role playing) as their avatar. Others simply want to use an avatar to maintain a sense of privacy and will still be themselves, just without showing their real face. Some may even mix between the two or keep a happy medium or balance. In general, individual Virtual Creators may have their own rules, and it's best to follow them.

- Avoid asking a Virtual Streamer/Creator to do a "face reveal" (sharing their real/IRL face). Doing this is generally frowned upon when it comes to Virtual Creators (and VTubers). Some Virtual Creators do willingly show their "real/IRL" faces, and some will even alternate between using an avatar and a facecam. However, streamers that exclusively use an avatar probably do so for a reason. Please respect their boundaries and privacy!- If a Virtual Creator does not publicly reveal any personal details about themselves, do not pry. This is considered invading their privacy. The vast majority of Virtual Creators do not make their other online identities public, much less personal information. If any personal information doesn’t come directly from the creator, it is considered doxing.- Respect a Virtual Creator the same way you would a real person. There is still a human being behind the avatar with thoughts, feelings, and needs. They are a streamer just like any other facecam streamer, but using a virtual avatar instead.- Don't make destructive or disparaging comment about a Virtual Creator avatar/model. Artists work hard on creating these avatars so streamers can make content with them. Virtual Creator also have personal attachments to their models, as they are that creator's form of self-expression. All types of models are their own art form, and are equally worthy of respect and love for the amount of work that goes into them.- Don't make disparaging comments on a Virtual Creator voice, ask about their "real voice," or make comments about voice changers. Whatever a creator chooses to do with their voice, modified or not, is their business- they are allowed their own comfort and privacy. Focus on the fantastic content they make instead!

Backseat Gaming refers to excessively commenting on the in-game decisions and actions of someone playing a video game, usually toward a streamer playing said game. Examples include trying to direct the player where to go, trying to tell them to change their playing style, and dropping spoilers or end-game content in chat without the player's consent.Unless the streamer specifically asks for help, it is usually frowned upon to make suggestions or commands- even the tiniest ones such as “go left” or “jump.” Be sure to check a streamer's rules before commenting! Some streamers are okay with backseat gaming and suggestions, while others are not.
