    It is a unified kingdom not a free kingdom as it is not part of a larger realm that has multiple "kings" like Great Britain during the time of Wessex, Murcia, Umbria etc. Plus the Queen wants there to be no room that there is one Queen, instead of the recent Bishopric of Eveningstar and Duchy of Tilverton with their own law books etc.

    Updated
    Article III.) Arabel Militia is the official Militia of the Kingdom of Arabel, dictated by the Crown of Arabel and lead by the Marshal of Arabel. Any mercenary force exceeding twenty-five members must register and receive special authorization from the Monarch or the Crown’s appointed Marshal. Recognized Noble Houses are permitted a household not to exceed fifty members. Special dispensations for an exception must be approved by the Monarch or the Crown's duly appointed Marshal and may be granted to safeguard the realm

    Amended Article 5 and 6 to include
    …. subject to the will of the Crown

    Changed

    S8 Note: Celestials contacted that do not pose a threat to the kingdom or the public may be exempt under certain circumstances, but the summoning and use of celestial beings in combat is unpredictable and dangerous and will not be allowed without crown approval.

    to include it under the purview of Official Clergy

    In consideration for their efforts to bridge the gap between the mortal realm and the persistent silence of the Divine: Celestials contacted that do not pose a threat to the kingdom or the public may be exempt under certain circumstances, but the summoning and use of celestial beings in combat is unpredictable and dangerous and will not be allowed without crown approval.

    It came up about that will happen to these records after the lawbook.

    These records are sealed so no copying or taking them etc. ICly they remain with the Council and High Arbiter. Also remember that this is not to turn into some political "win" thing. I do not want to see any reference like "Well so and so did this and said this on the council so screw them and let's hold this against them" etc.....

    ICly The Queen/Royal Council wanted various view points to be reflected in the law book
    OOCly The team wanted players to help with this to make sure they thought the punishments were inline and remained fun

    Cheers

    Until such a time as the Queen demands an official organization to be empowered with law enforcement no law is needed.

    Adventurers granted the ability to enforce the law will be judged per a case by case basis, titles and formalities should not be detailed in a lawbook.

    The Arbiter of Arabel

    //This would be covered by NPC sponsorship, better to have an article noting law-enforces anointed by the Councils or Crown, may enforce the law of petty to serious crimes, but not those of capital offense.

    This allows more flexibility with titles etc

    Example from current lawbook

    @Prof-Misclick said in Lawbook of the Kingdom of Arabel:

    Capital Offenses
    Disciplinary Actions: Execution, Re-education, or Exile.
    Public executions must be approved by the Royal Council of Peers or the Crown of Arabel

    @Prof-Misclick said in Lawbook of the Kingdom of Arabel:

    Serious Offenses
    Disciplinary Actions: Large Fine, Public Defenestration of Held Office, or One Tenday of Re-Education.
    Fines not to be below 5000 coins, and not above 15 000. Any held offices are to be revoked. Offenders are to submit to Re-Education for no less than One Tenday's worth of labor, as determined by the judging Crown Guards and/or Councils.

    @Prof-Misclick said in Lawbook of the Kingdom of Arabel:

    Article VII.) The Crown Guards are the law-enforcement of the Kingdom of Arabel's capital, Arabel.
    The Crown Guards are granted the power to enforce the law upon the adventuring population of Arabel, as specified in their public publishing "The Crown Guards".

    There should be options in punishment for those who judge to select from, not every criminal need re-education, not every criminal needs to be fined. There will be no special treatment of religious laws over common laws.

    Shall there be a desire to discuss alternative punishments for the offenses over what there is already, do so in another thread. This one is dismissed.

    The Arbiter of Arabel

    //There needs to be options available to ensure fun storytelling options, just one form of punishment or having different forms of punishments per law is complicated and unfun. Make a new thread if you want to discuss different forms of punishments.

    This is no a matter in regards of the lawbook, thereby dismissed.
