What of consensual slavery?~MDW
Consentual slavery is not slavery
If the "person" consents in character to that kind of treatement it's not "slavery".
Indentured servitude would be a common practice in this era, similar to chain gangs if one was incapable of paying a fine (or as a result of repeat offenses). Open air stocks and hanging cages were likewise options in lieu of sitting in a cell. I think it might give more rp opportunity if such 'punishments' were enacted ICly. Not every character would have reason to go visit the prison, for example, but walking by the stockade could result in a unique rp experience for players.
Councilwoman Amanda Lynn Corliss proposalCouncil Bill Proposal A.N.1- The Safe Harbor and Dock ActThis is a joint army and navy based bill.The proposal is that if a vessel not of Eileadoran military attacks a ship not an immediate threat to to the city, the attacking ship's crew will be detained in the following order:Navy>Army>City LegalOf course it is generally assumed that the Queen would not handle this unless special case presented itself. Queen always holds final word.Furthermore, if the attacking ship is attacking under another kingdom's word, or acting in a way that isn't coherent to Eileadoran Specific Legislature, it may be considered an act of war pending Queen's final word.
