This is very important. So yeah. The Law also applies to the loners, where it can. Note: THIS IS NOT A WARRIOR RPG! I would like the cats to follow this Law, NOT the Warrior Code! And please, NO warrior names!
1. Kits are not allowed to use their powers until they are promoted to Warrior-In-Training(WIT)
2. Beginning WITs are not allowed to pratice their powers without supervision until given permission by their mentor.
3. When a WIT is deemed worthy to be promoted to Warrior, or Warrioress, they must take a journey alone to Underthought, and speak to and challange a cat from the spirit realm.* If they win, they are marked in some way, and from then on respected as a full-fledged, fully able Warrior/Warrioress.
4. A kit is not named until he or she is three moons old, for several reasons. One is that the kit may not live past this birthdate, and it hurts the parent more if the kit has a name. The other, is simply tradition. The name is given either by the leader, or the parent. If there is a Healer in the group, it is given by them.
5. Bloodshed is not to be without reason. Needless bloodshed is considered a deathly sin, and will undoubtedly bring the mark of the heavens on you.
6. When on another group's territory, they own everything. They have every right to kill you, take you prision, or commit you to their own group. When in their territory without permission, you are their's.
7. There are no elders. All Warriors and Warrioress' serve until they die, or are killed in battle.
8. The other password is Forgiven Hope.
9. Leaders are in charge of EVERYTHING. They can choose to overrule you however you want. Only Healers (Which are very rare) have equal status to the leaders.
10. All Warriors/Warrioress' must share the burden of hunting, cleaning out the dens, and tending to the sick, dying, and wounded.
11. The leader may decide to put a cat who is suffering (by illness, wound, or very old age) to death. This would not go against Law #5, as it would be in the injured cat's best interest.
12. ((a technical Virtue Law, doesn't apply to Banished Memories, though some of them may have that state of mind)) Those born without powers are outcast, and unequal to those with powers. They are generally cast out of the group when it is discovered they don't have any powers.
13. Taking a mate from another group is not advised, as it promotes blood-mixing, but if the leader agrees (or doesn't know) then it is fine. In the case that there should be kits, they will be divided between mother and father, evenly. In the case there is an uneven number of kits, such as seven, the mother always gets more. ((So, the mother would get four of the kits, while the father got three.))
14. If a certian cat is allowed entry to Underthought, and is blessed with the gift of three powers by The Heavens,* they are then allowed to form a group of their own, with the name given to them by the rulers of the earth.
*Spirits, heavenly creatures, and other un-alive beings played by admins, or members with special permission.
If I forgot anything, I'll be sure to add it in later.
