The Laws & Customs enacted under Queen Seraphina at the start of her reign remain in effect to the present day, with the following amendments:
- The Sovereign is the Chief Commander of the Royal Guards and Fleet. He determines the organization of the Guards and of the Fleet, and issues decrees and directives dealing with the distribution of arms, their training, the duration of service by various ranks of the Guards and of the Fleet, and all other matters.
- The Sovereign has the right to pardon the accused, to mitigate the sentence, and even to completely forgive transgressions, including the right to terminate court actions against the guilty and to free them from trial and punishment, provided such actions do not infringe upon the rights and interests of others.
- The Sovereign calls a gathering of the populace every Spring, for which attendance is highly encouraged. At this meeting, the positions of Regent and Emissary shall be subject to inspection by the populace; if any member in attendance wishes to challenge the current holder of either of these positions in battle, their request will be granted immediately by the Sovereign, and the battle will commence at the Colosseum the next day. The Regent and Emissary may receive only one challenge each.
- The Counsel will be subject to inspection by the Sovereign himself. (This will be conducted by checking in with the player OOCly.) If an acting Warden or Champion is deemed inactive, they will be stripped of their position immediately, and another appointed in their place.
- Starting fall of yr. 506, the Sovereign will implement a 100 signos reward, redeemable once, to all members of the populace who attain these ranks (updated periodically):
Tactician or Battlemage, Doctor, Magician, Blacksmith.
If your EXP is below 20, petition your respective Champion for a thread to process the rank change. If no acting Champion exists, petition the Sovereign directly.
- As a continuation of the sweeping crackdowns on crime and immorality carried out by the previous Sovereigns—with the exception of the Tyrant Raum—the Sovereign seeks the help of his esteemed populace. Starting fall of yr. 506, every season a series of Court-commissioned tasks will be etched onto a sheet of ivory hung at the gates of the Castle. Successfully complete a task by the end of the season, and you will be handsomely rewarded by not only the Sovereign, but Solis himself.
The Ivory Sheet, when implemented, shall be linked here.
Given yr. 506 summer.
