[OOC: While Yetzinbrug's judicial system as a whole is rather fair and only minimal corruption exists. The laws which Caldath has imposed are fairly strict by our Modern day standards, but would be considered with in the norms for the old world, with the exception of the radical( and some old worlders would maintain ridiculous) notion of treating men and women as equals before the law.] Hear ye! Hear ye! by the royal decree of Prince Caldath of Yetzinburg, the following crimes shall earn ye criminals a death most public and painfull: - Murder: Death in a fashion befitting the murder commited.
- Rape: Death by Sanguination.
- Kidnapping: Death by Glub.
- Adultery: Death by Stoning.
- Worship of Proscribed Dieties: Death by impaling.
- Witchcraft: Death by Fire.
- Purgery: Punishment is that of the crime for which the purgerer is testifying, in some cases it means death in others, it might mean a simple lashing or recompense.
- A note on Mercy: Mercy in the form of a less painfull method execution will be accorded to those whom willingly confess their crimes and repent of their miss deeds.
- A note on Minor Crimes: The punishment for minor crimes such as theft, assault, and vandalism are left to the local magistrates to decide, but normaly this will envolve a combination of recompense and/or corporal punishment.
