Of course cases differ but there have to be general lines in any half decent law system .. something like the penalty for theft is cutting off a hand, or in modern days it would be two years of jailtime. The circumstances and actual size of the theft itself would either make the punishment increase or decrease.

Hwnae walks in cursing and grumbling after hearing of this message

"Alright you warmongering fool .. I've had enough of your kind, claiming to be great heroes of the light while they do nothing but starting fights with people minding their own business. Now I'll do Yliakum a favour and rid itself of this conflict."

The Captain steps up to the warmonger and looks him in the eye

"You're a shame to our entire race but ... name the time and place and we'll work this out. Just you and me .. you want to be remembered forever, well here's your chance of slaying an Imperial who you've never even met. If you die I'll show you the respect you deserve for your heroic act, none and leave your broken bones rotting in the wild."

Hwnae steps back and turns away ".. who gives birth to these idiots?"

(Disclaimer: in character post, do not be insulted by Hwnae's harsh reaction and aggressive attitude to characters who blindly call him evil without ever bothering to get to know him :P )


As Hwnae begins to run away, he is suddenly haulted now standing face to face with the one he was so eager to get away from. 

 *Whispers in Hwnae's ear* A hero of light, Oh ho NO Hwnae! Not a hero, a reaper only here to judge your actions with my reactions. You seal your own fate I am only here to carry out your sentence and all those who walk the path of darkness. No words can soften the blow of jagged steel, so don't come before me with your arrogant speech.
Your words mean nothing, your alliagance means EVERYTHING! *Steps out of the way of Hwnae grinning* Draklar still sends his servants to finish the jobs he cannot, perhaps he is still marveling over his love of "Steel".

((;D I don't really get insulted, just use it to my advantage. Hey Dark :P))

(if you really plan on pushing this thin plot forward ... please at least bother to catch up with what happened.)

It appears a lot is up to the level's Octarch's decision. Makes you wonder if there's any equivalent of Bill of Rights' Eighth Amendment present in Yliakum ;)

And DepthBlade... you pronunce it "STEEL".

The Imperial Guard now has it's own forums, it will not only be a place for the Imperials and guardsmen to gather but also be used for those interested in RPing with us in any way to find extra information and have a way of contacting us OOCly.

You'd doubt lack of racism in a medieval society, but the laws clearly state it's illegal in Yliakum (the extreme manifestation of racism anyway) ;)
In real life laws like that had their ups and downs (mostly the latter) all the way until... uhh... 18th or 19th century?
I don't think the case is so simple. Yliakum certainly isn't ruled by a monarchy, anyway.

    I don't think so, Vigesimi are hereditary and Octarchs are apparently elected by the Vigesimi. So it is not so different from a monarchy as you think, except that some of the Vigesimi come from crafting guilds, giving it a feel of a plutocracy as well, and the "democratic" Vigesimi acclaimed by the people are an exception to the rule.
    Still it's clear it's Yliakum isn't as ruthless and brutal as a medieval feudal land where the only "civil right" was the right to duelling.

I'm pretty sure Warmhammer didn't invent Empires or Guards.  And I've got a sneaky suspicion that somebody used "Imperial Guard" before Warhammer and that somebody will use it after this one.

Need I say more?

No?

Okay, good.

Ah no I didn't know because we ripped it off some book. Empire and Guard are two words we found on some page, forgot which ... we thought it'd be cool to create a guild combining those names and since I figured nobody ever really reads that boring book called the dictionary I didn't think we'd be caught ...

... but hey, you got me! ::)
