CHARACTER AND ARTWORK

Published work using the voicebank may or may not include visual depictions of the voicebank character.

Artwork does not need to depict the voicebank character. This voicebank can be used in conjunction with artwork of other characters.

Existing artwork of the voicebank character cannot be used without prior permission from the individual artists. However, when publishing work featuring the voicebank, you may freely use the jpg/png file included with the voicebank, so long as you credit the illustrator for the image.

Do not create derivative characters/voices. Featuring an original character whose parts in a song are sung by the voicebank is permitted, and using flags to change how the banks sound for this purpose is permitted, but creating characters directly related to the voicebank character (ie: a pitchloid or a rule-63/gender swap counterpart) is strictly prohibited. Creating gender-swapped ART is fine, just don't use the actual VB for that. This is a preventative measure against a common form of VB theft.

Do not use the voicebank or art as part of a dataset for AI art or an AI voice changer or AI TTS without express consent.

COMMERCIAL USE

Commercial use is permitted for original music with Arachne. For sale of covers or alternate arrangements of songs made by other people, the proper rightsholders must be contacted.

Use outside of promotion of songs/albums featuring Arachne or doujin use, such as promoting a game or product, MUST be approved by General Nuisance. Selling things like songs, albums, charms, standees, plushies, pin buttons, or t-shirts featuring one's own art of the characters is permitted.

Use of the voices or characters related to NFTs, cryptocurrency, or any blockchain of any kind, be it as part of a product (such as an original song being sold as an NFT) or to promote NFTs, cryptocurrency, or any blockchain of any kind is strictly prohibited.

Selling the voicebank audio, official art, or configuration files is prohibited. Only the owners of the bank (General Nuisance), illustrators of official art, are permitted to do this. Selling empty DVD cases and disks as a fake bank box is okay, but if you wish to include installers on the disks, seek permission from General Nuisance.
