Follow staff directions even if you know these by heart.
GENERAL RULES
- Players assume ALL risk for their activities and attendance.

CONSENT & SAFETY
- NO means NO. It is a complete sentence and can be used at any time. Always ask for consent. Violators will be removed.
- Do NOT touch anything (people, implements, possessions) without explicit permission.
Notify DMs/staff before conducting edge play (fire play, knife play, suspensions, medical play, CNC, etc.). - Some types of fire play are prohibited due to safety and space constraints.
Permission may be denied on a case-by-case or night-by-night basis for safety reasons.
ROPE RIGGERS
- Have safety scissors/knife/rope cutter handy.
- Use a safety spotter during suspensions, if possible.
- NEVER leave someone suspended or restrained without direct supervision.
- DMs/staff will release unsupervised individuals, cutting ropes if necessary.
- Offenders may have their membership revoked depending on the situation’s severity.
PLAY AREA SPECIFIC
- Keep scenes (including setup and breakdown) to 45 minutes. Clear equipment immediately after use.
- Do NOT sit on or leave items on play equipment unless actively using it for play.
- If nude or exposing your bare bottom, use a towel or blanket to sit.
- Do NOT interfere with other scenes.
- If assistance is needed, only respond if someone calls MAYDAY. Otherwise, report concerns to DMs.
- Avoid cracking whips unless at a designated whip event. During play events, whips over 4 feet are not allowed.
CLEANLINESS & EQUIPMENT USE

The Tampa Bay area’s ultimate destination for exploration, connection, and indulgence. Formerly known as the Phoenix Club, this iconic space has been a cornerstone of the BDSM community since 2007, evolving into what is now Deviance — a name that embodies the allure of pushing boundaries and embracing the provocative.
