.:Founder Laws
Founder Migel wrote these Laws for the future protection of the clan from the actions or inaction of a bad or absent Primogen. These Founder Laws are part of the constitution of the Destiny Clan and Can Not be changed or revoked. Any attempt by the Primogen or Council to change or revoke the Founder Laws is illegal.
1. A Primogen who becomes un-registered for a period of time longer than three ((irl calendar month)) shall be considered to have left the Kingdom and abandoned his/her position as Primogen.
If this should occur a simple majority vote by the full council and Primach may remove that Primogen. A Primogen who is absent from the Kingdom for longer than four ((irl calendar months))
without having first informed the Council of the reasons he/she will be absent, shall be considered to have abandoned his/her position as Primogen. If this should occur a simple majority vote by the full council and Primach may remove that Primogen.
2. A Primogen who by their actions or inaction is leading the clan into a situation which will lead to the destruction of the clan or the destruction of its good name may be removed by a unanimous vote of the full council and Primach. In an extreme case the help of an Archon may be required.
3. If a Primogen gets two or more criminal brands he/she must step down from the position. In the event he/she does not step down, a simple majority vote of the full council and Primach can remove him/her.
4. If the Primogen steps down or is dismissed, the Primach shall become the next Primogen, unless the Primach refuses the position. In a case where the Primach refuses the position it shall be offered to the council member who, by a majority vote of the council, is felt to be most suited to the position of Primogen.
.:Honor Guard Law
As there have been problems recently finding properly trained Honor Guards for guarding the Tribunal boards, I'm posting this guideline so that in emergencies, clan members will know, in general, what they can and cannot do as an Honor Guard.
Dress Code:
Honor guards are required to wear Scale Mail / Spring Mail Dress, a Bekyun's Spear / Nagnag Spear, and Ruby dye. While on duty, Honor Guards must unequip their head and hand items. Please remember to do this!
Can-Nots:
1) You can -not- be snoring (afk or otherwise) while guarding.
2) You can -not- read or post to in-game boards.
3) You are -not- to talk, even when spoken to. There may be exceptions to this rule, please decide carefully whether your situation is an exception.
4) Do -not- move unless a Primarch or Primogen is attempting to enter/leave. The only exceptions to this rule are characters who a Primogen or Primarch ask for -by name-.
5) Do -not- make excessive emotions, swing your spear, throw, drop, or make motions to pick up an item (pressing , or shift+,).
6) Beware the npc on the far right that you can only barely see. Clicking him opens the CotW board.
7) Do -not- give people a reason to bash the Honor Guard. If someone is intentionally disrupting your duties, -ignore- him. If you try reasoning, do -not- attempt resorting to trickery or deceipt. The person is -intentionally- disrupting the guard, telling him or her to move because another member is afk will only give him or her more reason to sling mud at the Honor Guard.
*Intentional Disruptors are in no way sympathetic to your plight.*
General Guidelines:
1) Stay grouped together. Whispers, Group Chat, Clan Chat, clicking on people, and holding down ; are all ways to keep your character from snoring.
2) Do not move from your spot unless you are letting someone in or out.
3) Use one of two formations: (xx is the door, c is the staircase)
xx xx
oo c o oc
oo oo
You will not fall in the doors while standing in front of them.
4) When Mhul appears on top of the stair case, turn to him and say 'Destiny Salutes You, Sire' (or some other pre-arranged greeting, make sure everyone knows what to say before he appears). Once everyone has said this, bow at least twice, then switch formation before he reaches the bottom of the stairs. Your formation should be:
xx xx
o oc o oc
o o
o o
Formations:
1) Guarding the door
xx xx
oo c o oc
oo oo
2) Mhul reaches bottom of stairs:
xx xx
o oc o oc
o o
o o
3) Allowing Primogens/Primarchs in or out:
xx xx
o oc o oc
o o o o
(Same formation in both cases)
Feel free to contact me if you feel you need practice with the greetings and/or formations.

.:Helm Law
You must reach your 2nd rank before you can buy a clan Helm(et).
If your helm(et) gets ragged and worn out you have a few options.
1. Buy a new one for 10k after you have reached your 2nd rank
2. Buy a sam san repair (usually 30K+)
Either of these is acceptable. If you choose the 1st option you will have a worn out old helm. This is where the new law comes to play.
The ONLY acceptable manner of discarding of old helm is as follows:
1. Give to a council member to put into the "trash corner" in the council
Room. When the floor sweep happens it will be destroyed.
2. Take it to a house or arena and blow it up with a bomb.
If I have a helm returned to me that was thrown in a public area or if I find out it was given away there will be strict consequences.
1st offence: Loss of half clan points
2nd offence: exiled from the clan
Since I'm not sure if they drop in death piles or not, the only acceptable way to keep you from these penalties are to nmail your sensei that you were not able to get your helm back.
Tossing your old helm around shows disrespect for your clan, and no one but our members should have one of our helms. Take pride in your clan and the accomplishment you worked hard for.

.:Guests Laws

5. The member who brought the guest in must stay with the guest at all times. If the member leaves the hall the guest must also leave immediately.
6. Any members of Council may ask a guest to leave the hall.
.:Clan Re-Entry
As we grow into a large, great Clan it becomes necessary to have a policy regarding leaving and returning. Doing so continuously and frivolously causes Destiny Clan's reputation to be tarnished.
The following is Destiny Clan's policy on re-entry.
1. Should a member be returning from previous Primogen's removal due to long term unregistered status, that member will pay the fee of 5 Gold acorns and simply be reinstated.
2. Should a member be returning after having their original Destonian purged, they must submit to a chat proving their original identity before they can be reinstated.
3. If you are intending to leave to do your Wilderness training, you must notify the current Primarch/ess in charge of Admissions of your coming absence from the Clan. The period of absence must last no longer than 10 days and should you be seen with the brand of another clan in that time you will not be allowed to re-enter again under any condition. You will not have to pay a fee or redo trials to re-enter if you do so in the allotted number of days.
4. Should a member be returning from removal after jailing, having had the red brand removed and or received a pardon, they must retake the clan law test and pay a fee of 5 Gold Acorns. If they should be arrested once again, they will no longer be welcome to return.
5. Should a member leave for any other reason, and wish to return, they may do so with the following fines and repercussions:
Under 1,5oo points at departure: No points on return.
Under 1o,ooo points at departure: Half point loss.
Under 3o,ooo points at departure: 1/4 point loss.
6o,ooo-31,ooo points at departure: 1/5 point loss.
The same penalty that applies to points will apply
to ranks, rounded up to the nearest even number.
Trials will have to be redone.
These policies are subject to change.
No exceptions will be made, no matter the returner's relationship with any Council, nor any previous accomplishments and contributions.
I thank you for your co-operation.

.:Sexual Harassment
Destonians: it has sadly come to my attention that matters of Sexual Harassment and harassment on the basis of sexual orientation have become a great issue in our illustrious Clan.
At this time there is no thorough and clear policy regarding such offenses, so the following takes effect immediately.
Let it be clear that Sexual Harassment is defined as, though not limited to:
The making of unwanted and offensive sexual advances or of sexually offensive remarks or acts. The solicitation for sexual favours.
Let it also be clear that the definition of harassment on the basis of sexual orientation includes but is not limited to:
Use of both filtered and unfiltered offensive language regarding an individual's sexuality. Bypassing the current filter to use such language will be punished accordingly. Usage of terms such as "queer" in that context will also be punished accordingly.
This law is in co-operation with Kingdom Law, and supercedes it in all cases involving Clan Members.
Clan justice will not be involved unless a complaint is made by the victim, however, in the case of sexual/sexual orientation harassment, victims are welcome to take their cases DIRECTLY to KINGDOM Justice.
The Clan prefers screenshots as evidence but if a number of witnesses in good standing with the Council were there and can testify, they are *not* required. If the situation is in whisper, screenshots are necessary to prove the offense.
The Primogen or Clan Arbiter will notify you of the complaint/s filed against you. This will be your one and only warning to cease and decist your inappropriate behaviour. You WILL be removed from Destiny Clan if another complaint should be filed AFTER your notification.
If you feel you have been harassed in either of these ways, and have the evidence necessary to back up your claim, please contact your Primogen or Clan Arbiter on the matter via n-mail or whisper only. Advise whether or not you have screen shots, who the offender was and when it happened.
Please consider that your actions WILL change the life of a member within the Clan- but do not under any circumstance feel unable to discuss this issue. Destiny Clan does NOT condone either of these types of harassment.
The Primogen/Primarchesses/Arbiter reserve the right to immediately remove members in EXTREME cases of blatant, lewd and unforgivable harassment.
Please feel free to bring your complaint up with either Primogen or Primarchess; whichever you are most comfortable speaking with.
Council reserves the right to forward evidence to Kingdom Justice in these matters.
In the circumstance that you do not have the evidence to back up your claim, or it occured before the time this law was issued, please notify your Primogen or Primarchess or Arbiter by n-mail of the incident, and it will be noted.
With the sincere hopes that Destiny Clan's good name is never tarnished by such base, deplorable and unacceptable incidents,
|Primogen Diskord
.:Jail-Brandings
Jail birds will not be welcome into the Samaritan Program! You may apply to join the clan with a jailing for profanity that is at least 5 months old, but you will need to have the mark removed within 3 months to stay.
If you are jailed for profanity, you will have 3 months to get the branding removed by pardon.
If you are jailed for any other reason, you shall be removed from the clan and not allowed re-entry for a minimum of 5 months -and- the branding is removed.
