==Playability Designation==
The '''playability designation''' is the marker for which species can be used as primary characters in SIM. There are four basic markers:

!width=50% valign=top|[[File:ILI-Restricted.png|200px|link=Category:Restricted]]
|-
|valign=top|'''Green''': [[:Category:Permitted|''Permitted'']]
*Species in this category are '''playable by all members.'''
*<font color=#4DB870>'''If you're looking for a species to play as a primary character, check out the [[Intelligent Lifeform Index/Gallery/Permitted|Permitted Species Gallery]].'''</font>
|valign=top|'''Yellow''': [[:Category:Restricted|''Restricted'']]
*These species '''can only be played with a staff member's permission''', and cannot ordinarily be played as your player character (PC).
*If you would like to play a member of a restricted species as your PC, a formal process applies. [[:Category:Restricted|Please see here for more information]].

!valign=top|[[File:ILI-Forbidden.png|200px|link=Category:Forbidden]]
!valign=top|[[File:ILI-ToBeDetermined.png|200px|link=Category:Non-Reviewed Species]]
|-
|valign=top|'''Red''': [[:Category:Forbidden|''Forbidden'']]
*Any species listed in this category are '''barred from being played by any members except in NPC, short-term capacities'''. This may be due to super-powers (Qs), or villain status (Borg).
|valign=top|'''Blue:''' [[:Category:Non-Reviewed Species|''Non-Reviewed'']]
*Non-Reviewed Species are those which have not been reviewed by the [[Captains Council]] and thus have not been designated with a playability rating.
*These species '''can only be played with a staff member's permission''', and cannot ordinarily be played as your player character (PC).
*If you would like to play a member of a non-reviewed species as your PC, a formal process applies. [[:Category:Non-Reviewed Species|Please see here for more information]].
