GENERAL LAWS

1) Schendi is a Free port, and as per the books, administered and ruled mostly by black-skinned Masters. It is also the home port of the League of Black Slavers. It is governed by an Ubar and Council, the size of which may be adjusted from time to time. Free men may hold office and may be permitted to sit on the Council and have a vote as determined by the Council.

2) The laws of Schendi extend no further than its walls, but members of the city are to carry themselves properly and with honor, and not bring disgrace to the name of Schendi when outside its walls.

3) Schendi is meant to be a place where Free men can gather and experience the best of Gorean life and be respected, treated and served appropriately. It does not always follow the books verbatim, but follows the philosophy of Gor. Schendi does not permit kajirus/boy slaves

4) All Free citizens of Schendi are permitted as many personal slaves as they want. All slaves are to be available to any Schendi Free and no slave may be restricted (including for punishment), by their owner at any time.

5) Free persons and slaves within the walls of Schendi will act appropriately in relation to their position. Order is everything! While in public gathering places, they will not speak ill of or in disrespect to another citizen of Schendi or the city itself. Visitors are to be treated with the same respect unless their actions dictate otherwise. City business must not be spoken to visitors. Schendi does not support the mixing of real life and role play and strongly discourages it. Multi rp persons are not permitted. – co

6) ooc policy - Schendi does not endorse the use of occ (out of character) chat during Schendi rp for a number of reasons, and therefore asks that its use be strictly limited. The use of "ooc" (out of character), chat is discouraged and only permitted when needing to leave the room or for emergency purposes.

7) yahoo/aim/google/msn / whisper chat policy – 1) The use of yahoo or any IM is strictly for personal use only when not in Schendi; 2) Yahoo is not to be used simultaneously with your imvu Schendi rp…. meaning that one is not to be engaged in Schendi imvu rp and talking to another on yahoo about that rp; 3) - A Free cannot require that slaves give out any personal information, give them access to their passwords, call them personally or use any other chat forum other than imvu; 4) There is no whispering in Schendi using the vip feature. 5) – Schendi strongly discourages the mixing of real life and role play as it results in problems 99% of the time. The Ubar and Council reserve the right to ban anyone who does so.

8- Rank of citizens - Schendi has its own version of the caste system as listed below and citizens and visitors are expected to understand and reflect this. This order may change from time to time as dictated by the Council.

Ubar
First Sword
Schendi Council
Schendi Free
slaves (First Girl first)

9) Greet order in public rooms - slaves shall use the following greet order in Schendi rooms  
slave’s personal owner

Ubar
First Sword
Schendi Council
Schendi Free
Visiting Free
slaves (First Girl first)

10) Procedure for handling non-Goreans entering a Schendi room note: This procedure is for non-Goreans only!!! please follow these steps –

The Free/slave should nicely say the following "room statement" (yes, copy and paste so we are consistent) - "Schendi is a Gorean role play room and all guests are expected to rp as such. If you can't, don't know how or want to learn, please go to this site, read up and return if you want once you understand. Thank you. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] please leave so as not to be a disruption."
If the guest doesn’t respond or goes down some other path, respond nicely again and repeat the above room statement. If they don't respond or continue going down some strange path.... boot them.

11) Any child born to a Schendi Master and a Schendi slave is born with automatic citizenship in Schendi as a slave, however, the slaves may be dealt with as per the books, including being sold, made Free, given away or other. A Master, if He wishes His slave children to be "free", must free the slave who He impregnated, making her a Free Woman, until the child is born, and then He may return the Free Woman to being a slave, or leave her as a FW.

12) Schendi may honor attacks and raids on the city and reserves the right to use any form of defense that it chooses. Any attack will be met with an aggressive defense as dictated by Schendi, not the attacker. Schendi would defend the city as any logical and smart city would do to protect itself from attack with a strong and massive response.

13) Earning and retaining your citizenship is contingent upon you attending certain public ceremonies and assemblies as determined by the Council and active participation the forum and rooms, and proper adult behavior and compliance with Schendi laws. No one is above the law. Citizenship is a privilege, not a right, and thus it must be earned. You are expected to owe your allegiance to the city and work at supporting that city.

All Free citizens and slaves of Schendi are expected to spend the majority of their online time in Schendi or city they reside in and new Free and slaves (first 30 days) must spend 100% of their time in Schendi. Schendi does not permit multiple rp’s in other rooms/clubs/cities/etc. All Free and slaves are expected to post, on average, at least 3 posts to this forum every day (average of 21 per week). Free as well as slave "Candidates" must successfully complete a 30-day probation/trial period, pass an interview and write a 500 word essay prior to becoming an "official" citizen or slave. See more on Free "Candidates" at the end of these laws. All Candidates are to be given a copy of laws on the 3rd day of their candidacy.

14) Decisions of the Ubar and Council are final. If you have a grievance, please do not hesitate to voice your position or opinions on a subject in private with them. Any petitions submitted for hearing by the Ubar or Council is welcome, and will be seen to as soon as possible. (Ubar has the authority to break any ties should the Council be deadlocked).

15) All city slaves are owned by the city of Schendi and any proceeds (above expenses), from any sale thereof will be divided equally among the Masters based on their share of the total number of shares in the city.

16) Sex of any type, in Schendi public rooms must cease immediately when any visitor arrives.

17) Security - In case of threat to kill or capture one of our citizens or slaves while in the room, the ranking Free or slave should state... "Schendi observes attacks, kills, captures, and forced collars, however, we defend aggressively against such actions with Schendi’s defense plan. We reserve the right to react appropriately to anyone disrespecting or not abiding by Schendi law and to dictate what fight/defense rp is used in our city. Any Free or slave of Schendi may direct the defense using the elite Schendi royal guards as applicable. Always copy the chat. If someone with boot power isn't in the room then copy the chat and exit.

18) Non-Schendi Free, including Candidates, may not collar or take slaves they meet in Schendi's rooms (otherwise known as slave poaching). There are slave markets for such activities. Any un-owned slave visiting Schendi is under the protection of the city of Schendi. Any non-Schendi Free caught poaching in the room will be booted immediately.

19) Any slave or Free of Schendi, who misses 10 consecutive days of posting to this forum or coming into the Schendi imvu room, must revert back to probation for a 30 day period, unless an approval to be away has been granted in advance. Any exceptions to this will be handled by Ubar. Acceptance back into Schendi will not be automatic and will be voted on by the Council. Emergencies will be taken into account on this law. Upon return, a formal explanation in "breaking news" is to be made explaining the slave's whereabouts during the stated missed time in Schendi.

20) All members of Schendi must have all members on their buddies list and will not block or remove any family members from their friends list. When people leave or get banned from Schendi for whatever reason, they are to be removed from your friends list.

21) Any slave coming into Schendi, who is given to any Free of Schendi by the original "non-Schendi" owner, or a slave coming into Schendi under another Frees protection, will be collared by a member of the Schendi Council and do probation as per laws. Once the slave has met all Schendi new slave requirements, they are then owned by the Free they were given to. At such time of transaction, there needs to be a second Free as witness as well and a chat log of the transaction proving the slave was given to a Schendi Free to take over ownership.

22) All Free and slaves are expected to post a recap of any chats with visitors. Visitor logs, whether occurring in Schendi or traveling are to be saved in the visitors log in this forum.

23) Poaching law: personal slaves of Schendi Free are not to be taken/lured/poached away from that Free by any other Schendi Free who may desire that slave. Furthermore, any personal slave released as personal slave, will become a Schendi city slave and must stay a city slave for a minimum of 30 days before they can become a personal slave to a Free again... and then, only if approved by Ubar. slave papers will be updated to show any changes.

__________________________________________________________________________


Free Candidates

1) By the 14th day after becoming a Candidate, all new Free Candidates must read and study all the laws and write a 1-2 sentence response for each law as to what that law means to them and post to their personal thread (review Candidates laws first, then general, and slave last).Master Candidates are to be offered sexual with all slaves three times during their probationary period, beginning on the 6th day, with the stipulation that the Free Candidate will have made and average of 3 posts each day (21 total)to this forum, as a perk of their potential membership and to see how well they fit in to the city. Candidate must ask the Ubar or slaves owner, for use above three times.

2) All Master Candidates will go through a 30 day review period during which time they can see if Schendi is right for them and vice versa. They will be given copy of laws after 3 days of participation in the room and have a 5 day waiting period before being asked to forum. During that 30 day time period, all Candidates must learn the laws and pass a simple test on the history of the city, facts of the city, our laws etc. 20 questions. slaves owned by the Candidate, may be brought with the Candidate and must go through the same process as any new slave, except that they will bypass the three day collaring rule and in-depth interview, but be subject to all other potential slave requirements as outlined in slave law #2.

3) The Schendi Council will make the initial decision by vote to accept the Free as a Candidate and at the end of the 30 days, the Council will vote to determine if the Candidate is accepted.

4) Candidates are strictly prohibited from "poaching" (collaring/stealing) either Schendi slaves or un-owned slaves who enter Schendi. In addition, Candidates may not punish slaves during their 30 days.

5) Candidates many not select or collar a slave to be their personal slave until after their ceremony.

Laws of visiting Free Women

1) Free women are to be respected and protected by all men of Schendi at all times. FW cannot forgo robes of concealment but may be without hood and veil with no risk of being collared.


2) Force collars are permitted but only in cases where the FW is extremely offensive or disrespectful and only if the Schendi Master sells the FW upon collaring. FW who act like sluts may be collared and treated like sluts.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Laws of Schendi slaves

It is the sole mission of all Schendi slaves to please, pleasure, obey and serve the Schendi Masters. Failure to do so is a capital offense. In the absence of any Schendi Free in the room, slaves will report to the Schendi FG who will be in charge of the slaves when a Schendi Free is not present.

All slaves must learn the slave Creed -

He is Master, and girl is slave.
He is owner, and girl is owned.
He commands, and girl obeys.
He is to be pleased, and girl is to please.
Why is this?
Because He is Master, and girl is slave.

1) Schendi city slaves are the property of the Masters of Schendi and are a valuable asset to the city. slaves are considered property, on the same level as animals. Their owner may do anything they wish to them within the rp, without repercussion. Any Free person that finds offense with another's slave may punish that slave at will with advance approval by the slave’s owner (Council in the case of Schendi city slaves). City slaves must wear the city collar and brands at all times. Failure to not have the collar on is a capital offense. co

2) slave collaring process - All un-owned slaves determined to be a potential Schendi candidate are stripped naked after entering and caged for three days. slave candidates will be collared with a city collar (by a Schendi Council member), after the three day waiting period, and after their interview, background check and any other assigned projects have been completed. slaves will be granted forum access at the time they are collared. During the three days, slaves will be given a copy of the Schendi laws to read and will be told about the 10 minute rule and how they are not to travel.

Newly collared slave candidates must successfully complete a 30 day probationary period that includes completing the laws project, writing an acceptable 500 word essay on why they wish to join Schendi and successfully passing a 20 question slave test. Additionally, slave papers on the slave will be completed during this time. The 30 day period begins on the date the slave enters the forum. by the 14th day after becoming a slave candidate, all new slaves must read and study all the laws and write a 1-2 sentence response for each law as to what that law means to them and post to their personal thread. The slave will be restricted from any sexual activity for the first 3 days (beginning the first day they arrive in Schendi).

3) Within 10 minutes of coming online, all slaves are required to report to the main Schendi room prepared for service. slaves are required to spend the majority of their online time in Schendi as they are part of the family and their participation is required. slaves are never permitted to be in "dnd" or any form thereof when online. slaves are not permitted to chat elsewhere unless it’s to a Schendi family member and then only in Schendi rooms or private. The slave must have a presence (even if afk) in the main room even if a Schendi Master calls them private. In those cases when called private, a slave needs to post an "afk" or "brb" sign and move to a block. slaves are not to sit on pillows in the main room. Those are for FW and some Masters who prefer pillows to a throne. slaves are to be at blocks or beside or in front of a Free. CO

4) When a slave needs to leave the room temporarily (due to a real life situation of 15 minutes or less), she needs to do the following; ask the Free if you may be excused due to (real life work, call, children, etc)… use the ( ) to designate ooc, then wait until they say you may and then thank them and go afk (use an "afk" or "brb" sign) and then move to a block. When you return…say may this slut return if it pleases the Free? ... and then slip back in and thank them. This is one of the few instances where ooc can be used. If a slave needs to be afk or brb longer than 15 minutes she begs to be dismissed from the room ....... then closes the room and exits imvu or indicates in her imvu status screen that she is away. If a slave has to exit immediately due to a rl situation, they are to just exit saying nothing, and then explain upon their return. Do not stay in the room. If a slave crashes and comes back within 15 minutes, she is simply to say ("girl crashed, may she return please"). If she is gone longer than 15 minutes or does not return, she needs to send a message to the Free who were in the room explaining that she crashed and why she did not return.

5) slaves must follow any command issues by any Schendi Free (as long as it does not break any Schendi laws), at any time or suffer the consequences. Failure to do so is a capital offense. CO

6) slaves possess nothing not given to them by their owner, including their name. Any Schendi Free (non-Candidate), may use any slave at any time for any purpose. CO

7) slaves who have been in Schendi for 90 days and are in good standing may travel solo outside of Schendi if there are no Schendi Free online but must have received approval to travel prior to traveling (from their owner or a member of Council if a city slave), and may only travel to safe zones or pre-approved rooms. slave must return if any Schendi Free comes online while slave is traveling; slave must post a full log of their travel within one hour of the visit; and finally, any slave captured while traveling, will not be sought after as they should know how to escape a room. CO

8- slaves are not to speak of the business of Schendi to any outside visitor unless under express permission from a Free and doing so is a capital offense. slaves are never to visit the camps of Schendi enemies (those on blocked and banned list). CO

9) All Free persons are to be addressed as Master or mistress, jarl/Ubar unless given specific permission by Free to use another title of their choosing. Never call or refer to a Free by their name. Serve every Free as if your well being depends on being pleasing.......it does. While a Free person may not always be right, they are, by definition, never wrong. slaves always have the last word in any disagreement. The words "yes, Master"... the First Girl is to be called "First Girl."

10) slaves speak in the 3rd person and do not ever use the first person pronoun in public rooms. There is no "i" "me" or "mine" in a slave’s vocabulary. In addition slaves are not permitted to use abbreviations like "brb", "ty", "yw", "gtg", "lol", "bc" etc.... spell it out. The only exception is the use of my when referring to a slaves owner.

11) All slaves may be bred at any time and may be confined to breeding area during fertile periods if requested by any Master. Babies carried and born by slaves may be kept as slaves, sold off or made Free, based on a vote of Council.

12) slaves must post their personal fertility information (real life ovulation days) to the forum and wear the fertile anklet during their fertile period. In addition, slaves are to be administered slave wine once each month (by their owner or Council member), as a form of contraception until the Free decide they are to be bred.

13) slaves understand they are property and may be bought, sold, traded or loaned. Jealousy and possessiveness are punishable offenses and will not be tolerated. CO

14) slaves will wear clothing, or not wear clothing, decided upon by their Masters. All slave candidates will wear a Schendi camisk during their probationary period and until after their ceremony.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

15) slaves may not carry weapons or touch money unless given to them by a Free, for purposes of going to market and only then to be carried in mouth, or hand or in a pouch. slaves may use knives in the preparation of food. CO

16) All slaves will be branded within a reasonable time period as determined by the Council. - By recommendation of merchant law, there are three standard marking places for brands, on the left inner thigh, left outer thigh, and lower abdomen. The slave will be prepared for the ceremony by one to three slaves who will bathe, style the hair of, shave and otherwise prepare the slave's body for the ceremony, branding and initiation.

17) Entering/Greeting: The following is the greeting that slaves are to use when greeting Schendi Free citizens and "Candidates", whether there are guests in the room or not. The First Girl greets before any of the other slaves.

Entering the room: If a slave asks for permission to enter and the Free do not respond within 2 minutes, the slave may "slip in" to the room, making note in her post. slaves will always ask permission to enter the room when a Free or First Girl of Schendi is present and will perform the required entry. If no Free are present, but the first girl is, the slave may perform an abbreviated entry but still must ask permission to enter the room." If a non-Schendi Free is the only Free in the room when a slave enters, they do not need to ask permission to enter.

Greeting Schendi Masters: Move to the feet of the Free you are greeting, drop to your knees and nadu and kiss their cock and then their feet. Once you have done this - you can then greet verbally. You can be creative in your words to be unique but do not remove their boots or shoes. Kissing the cock and feet of the Master is to show respect, submission and your willingness to serve, obey, pleasure and please. If the Free does not respond within 2 minutes, the slave may move on to the next Free to greet stating why in her post. slaves are required to complete their greets to all Free in the room before stopping the greeting process and offering to serve one. Free will not greet any slave entering until the slave has made an appropriate entrance and greeted that particular Free.

Greeting non-Schendi Free: When a Gorean visitor comes to visit Schendi, slaves are to wait for the Schendi Free to greet first...followed by the First Girl. If no Free are in attendance, slaves shall proceed with the First Girl leading. Move to the Master and nadu and tower for any FW.

NOTE: There is to be no cock kissing in the greeting when any visitor (Free or slave), is present and slaves are to be discrete with their nadu when a FW is present.

18) Low protocol” entrance: There are times when a slave should enter "low protocol" - when she has little time irl, but wants to come in the room either to say hi or deliver a message, etc, or a Free has asked for a low protocol entrance. In those cases, a slave may enter and says, “May this slave enter under low protocol due to real life or as per the Free's request”? In this case, the Free will say either you may or may not. If you are granted entrance, proceed to do a shortened greeting.

19) slaves may not charge for any services, private or otherwise unless directed to by a Master or in the line of duty if working in the tavern.

20) All Schendi slaves are required to show their buddies, visitors and messages on their hp at all times, and all required stickers as determined by the Council. slaves may have their hp's as well as their face, hair, body, eyes, etc redone to reflect their owner’s desires. All slaves are required to have their “imvu room locators” on at all times. – CO

21) Being a slave in Schendi is an honor and a privilege and being trained in the basics of Gorean slave skills is essential for all Schendi slaves. All girls need to know the laws of Schendi and what is expected of them, they need to know how to enter and exit a room, speak properly, address the Masters and other Free properly, ask to be excused properly, serve basic drinks and food properly and maybe a dance or two. slaves are expected to attend training classes as applicable and complete any training as required.

Note on Capital Offenses (“CO”) - capital offenses punishments for capital offenses listed above as ("CO") can include but may not be limited to torture, rape, beatings, confinement, banishment and even death.

I have read and agreed to these laws.

kusipaa you did amazingly on this project well done girl, to everybody else that worked in them as well very well done. Our first major project as a city and it is a complete success.

girl hopes everyone will take the time to carefully read and review the laws as they have changed significantly

Yes I hope so aswell mine.

Reviewing one more time

girl has read and reviewed in depth

Lol kusi you have read , reciewed, read, reviewed, read , written out in full , read , reviewed rewritten then read and reviewed a dozen times over.

Yes Master girl will be reading them more than once for sure

read and understood -puts her mark on the ledger of readers-

I have read and approve.

Based on what just happened with Master Sempre, dreamie and kitten, i think we should increase the time/process of admitting new members to Schendi. Maybe we have a 2 week waiting period to see if people truly are committed? I don't know - but its frustrating. dreamie left Schendi once before.

This shit happens tah - Not much we can do. He made a persoanl decision - we can't control that

Schendi Laws were approved and are in full force.

Hehe - licks your lips? haha. Reading the Master greeting are we? Laws are much simpler and straight forward now.

Updated with slave Creed - 9/5/13

Thank you sister

Have begun work on a suggestion to the Revised Edition of the Schendi Laws - as it was understood that first girl capri and tahmina wanted to participate in the effort - I suggest we make a closed thread on the forum for those involved in it's making as it will be an on-going process - with suggestions from everyone WHO wish to participate

Municipal Law - (Municipal law is the national, domestic, or internal law of a sovereign state defined in opposition to international law, ie in this case Schendi Law in opposition to Gorean Law)

Example of Schendi Law vs. Gorean Law

Gorean Law - The Fugitive Slave Act of Gor mandates that states to which escaped slaves flee are obligated to return them to their Masters and rightful owners upon their discovery and to subject persons who help runaway slaves to criminal sanctions - Note: The sanctions vary from a fine to slave-Labour for males, WHO will serve time building roads, clearing Canals, building bridges, working a quarry, or in a mine; and for women aiding a runaway tthe sanctions vary from a fine, to slave-Labour in a Penal-brothel, or being branded as a slave girl herself.

Schendi Law - The Fugitive Slave Act of Schendi mandates that any rightful Citizens of Schendi to which escaped slaves has flee are obligated to return them to their Masters and rightful owners upon their discovery and to subject any person who help runaway slaves to criminal sanctions

Difference in this is the fact that people not of Schendi is not allowed to put a person of Schendi or another visitor to Schendi to criminal sanction - that befalls only those who are rightful Citizens of Schendi - A visitor can of course bring a such person before the Magistrate Praetor, and get a ruling (for gaming purposes a Master of Schendi - who is no longer candidate - Thus making Schendi Masters in control of Schendi Rooms)

It is important to note that in ancient civilisations even when a City used the same Law as the international one it was stated in the Municipal Laws as they were those all Citizens of the City or Region had to adhere to

Also by the Books - Ignorance as to the Law of a Region or City is no excuse, if charged for not upholding it


Having read the Laws - I have begun making a suggestion to a Revised Version

Municipal Law is divided into:

1) General Law (Roleplay related to Ubar, Appointment of First Sword, Merchant Council, Rules to be upheld by all Free)
2) Merchant Law (Laws involving Business, Debts, Market Rules, Slaves and Trade)
3) Participation Law (that which relates to real: Rules for participation (both Free and slaves, Requirements, and the like)

In this way - the points 1 + 2 relates to the RP
point 3 relates to the typist participating in the RP, yet incorporated into the Law of Schendi

Participation law deals with items that prior was mentioned in more than one place - Now it will be only mentioned in one place

Basic Idea of the revised Law is to make it short and to the point - trying to avoid long explanations - as ancient law was a line or two - Not volumens of explanations and taking all different possibilities into account - Here you are guilty until proven innocent - and if the evidence is overwhelming - No hearing will be held, if dealing with criminals, outlaws, panthers, or slaves - as it saves the public Money

Another thing is to use the rules and Laws mentioned in the books by John Norman to further the idea of the Gorean culture and it's Justice system - with main focus on the Laws that might be usable to promote and further role play

I look forward to working with you all on this subject and think it will be a good re-read of some of the Books

EXAMPLE - Found on page 272 of Book 24 - Vagabonds of Gor

Out of the Slave Wars grew much of the Merchant law partaining to slaves - (in regard to the slave) she is to be figured as an item of tribute as any other domestic animal she must be given her current market value in the area (ie market)

This translates into an item under Merchant Law that would be refered to in this way:

Any woman branded a slave and put up for sale inside the City of Schendi is to be figured as an item of tribute, as any other domestic animal she must be given her current market value in the area

Having rp'd in Schendi for over four years i can state that the laws were originally written to insure that the Schendi rp was consistent, drama was kept to a minimum and people knew what the expectations were. The laws are mostly about acting properly and dealing with real life problems/drama brought into the rp and not so much with civil or merchant law which could easily fill volumes. The whole idea of having laws was to establish some structure by which the city would exist and to promote stability, consistency and less drama. The last rewrite was about a year ago and saw the laws greatly reduced in volume and complexity. I am all for simplification, for if the laws are too voluminous and detailed, no one will rp in Schendi.

As far as escaped slaves, the practical side of that issue says that if a person chooses to escape, there is a reason for that (they want to rp elsewhwere). Ubar has always said... "let them go... as Schendi does not wish to have people hanging around who don't want to be here"... another reason why force collaring is nothing but a drama-laced joke on IMVU Gor.

Ubar? Please weigh in here and let us know what You want us to do.

I can only agree with you tah - It is important that the Laws are simple and easily understood - that is why I suggested to do this in the first place

Idea is to make the rules appear as they would in the books - for easy use in RP and real (those rules that deal with such) - I am working on them as I write this and will continue the Work and take into account all that exists so far - then we can all in unison take what is needed to make the Laws - as the typists of Schendi agree upon which is relevant and which is not

Remember - I am doing this as a suggestion - NOT as a "SO-MUST-IT-BE" as I wish to make a contribution to Schendi as a Whole - not aiming to complicate matters in the process, but to simplify them

6) ooc policy - Schendi does not endorse the use of ooc (out of character) chat during Schendi rp for a number of reasons, and therefore asks that its use be strictly limited. The use of "ooc" (out of character), chat is discouraged and only permitted when needing to leave the room or for emergency purposes.
+6) ooc policy – Schendi does not endorse the use of ooc (out of character) chat during Schendi rp. Ooc chat is discouraged when used too much, if it gets to a point where that is what you are talking in mostly. Take it to a PC or another room.+

7) yahoo/aim/google/msn / whisper chat policy – 1) The use of yahoo or any IM is strictly for personal use only when not in Schendi; 2) Yahoo is not to be used simultaneously with your imvu Schendi rp…. meaning that one is not to be engaged in Schendi imvu rp and talking to another on yahoo about that rp; 3) - A Free cannot require that slaves give out any personal information, give them access to their passwords, call them personally or use any other chat forum other than imvu; 4) There is no whispering in Schendi using the vip feature. 5) – Schendi strongly discourages the mixing of real life and role play as it results in problems 99% of the time.

10) Procedure for handling non-Goreans entering a Schendi room note: This procedure is for non-Goreans only!!! please follow these steps –

The Free/slave should nicely say the following "room statement" (yes, copy and paste so we are consistent) - "Schendi is a Gorean role play room and all guests are expected to rp as such. If you can't, don't know how or want to learn, please go to this site, read up and return if you want once you understand. Thank you. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] please leave so as not to be a disruption."
If the guest doesn’t respond or goes down some other path, respond nicely again and repeat the above room statement. If they don't respond or continue going down some strange path.... boot them.
+ 9) Procedure for handling non-Goreans:
The Free/slave should copy and paste the following statement.
“Schendi is a Gorean RP room, if you do not know what Gorean is or what RP is. Then you most likely should leave and return only once you do. Here is a link to a site that can help you with Gorean. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] “
Repeat the posting process twice, and if they still do not leave, boot them or have someone boot them.+

11) Any child born to a Schendi Master and a Schendi slave is born with automatic citizenship in Schendi as a slave, however, the slaves may be dealt with as per the books, including being sold, made Free, given away or other. A Master, if He wishes His slave children to be "free", must free the slave who He impregnated, making her a Free Woman, until the child is born, and then He may return the Free Woman to being a slave, or leave her as a FW.
+10)+ Other than the number needing to be fixed I find this rule to be as it should be.+

12) Schendi may honor attacks and raids on the city and reserves the right to use any form of defense that it chooses. Any attack will be met with an aggressive defense as dictated by Schendi, not the attacker. Schendi would defend the city as any logical and smart city would do to protect itself from attack with a strong and massive response.
+I don’t find this law to be needed, seeing as only Schendi members can see it. And it’s just stating logic.+

13) Earning and retaining your citizenship is contingent upon you attending certain public ceremonies and assemblies as determined by the Council and active participation the forum and rooms, and proper adult behavior and compliance with Schendi laws. No one is above the law. Citizenship is a privilege, not a right, and thus it must be earned. You are expected to owe your allegiance to the city and work at supporting that city.

All Free citizens and slaves of Schendi are expected to spend the majority of their online time in Schendi or city they reside in and new Free and slaves (first 30 days) must spend 100% of their time in Schendi. Schendi does not permit multiple rp’s in other rooms/clubs/cities/etc. All Free and slaves are expected to post, on average, at least 3 posts to this forum every day (average of 21 per week). Free as well as slave "Candidates" must successfully complete a 30-day probation/trial period, pass an interview and write a 500 word essay prior to becoming an "official" citizen or slave. See more on Free "Candidates" at the end of these laws. All Candidates are to be given a copy of laws on the 3rd day of their candidacy.

+12)Free as well as slave candidates must be in Schendi for 3 days 100% of the time they are online and pass an interview before they can begin the official 30-day probation period. Where they are then given a copy of the laws, after 10 days of this trial they are then allowed access to the forum. Slave candidates must wear a camisk during their 30-day trial period.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] - Camisk+

14) Decisions of the Ubar and Council are final. If you have a grievance, please do not hesitate to voice your position or opinions on a subject in private with them. Any petitions submitted for hearing by the Ubar or Council is welcome, and will be seen to as soon as possible. (Ubar has the authority to break any ties should the Council be deadlocked).
+This law is merely common sense. Therefore I believe it can be removed.+

15) All city slaves are owned by the city of Schendi and any proceeds (above expenses), from any sale thereof will be divided equally among the Masters based on their share of the total number of shares in the city.
+This law is unneeded.+

16) Sex of any type, in Schendi public rooms must cease immediately when any visitor arrives.
+This law has proven to be troublesome. Away with it.+

17) Security - In case of threat to kill or capture one of our citizens or slaves while in the room, the ranking Free or slave should state... "Schendi observes attacks, kills, captures, and forced collars, however, we defend aggressively against such actions with Schendi’s defense plan. We reserve the right to react appropriately to anyone disrespecting or not abiding by Schendi law and to dictate what fight/defense rp is used in our city. Any Free or slave of Schendi may direct the defense using the elite Schendi royal guards as applicable. Always copy the chat. If someone with boot power isn't in the room then copy the chat and exit.
+13) Security –In case of threat to kill or capture one of our citizens or slaves while in the room, make the person/s performing the threat aware that we are not afraid to use the elite guards. If they continue to threaten, use the elite guards to stop the threat before it takes affect. If it is not possible to use the elite guards to stop the threat, copy the chat log, post an exit, then exit the chat immediately.+

18) Non-Schendi Free, including Candidates, may not collar or take slaves they meet in Schendi's rooms (otherwise known as slave poaching). There are slave markets for such activities. Any un-owned slave visiting Schendi is under the protection of the city of Schendi. Any non-Schendi Free caught poaching in the room will be booted immediately.
+There is a law stating the exact same thing later on. So this one shall be deleted.+

19) Any slave or Free of Schendi, who misses 10 consecutive days of posting to this forum or coming into the Schendi imvu room, must revert back to probation for a 30 day period, unless an approval to be away has been granted in advance. Any exceptions to this will be handled by Ubar. Acceptance back into Schendi will not be automatic and will be voted on by the Council. Emergencies will be taken into account on this law. Upon return, a formal explanation in "breaking news" is to be made explaining the slave's whereabouts during the stated missed time in Schendi.
+We are all guilty of this law at some point in time, I find it useless. Away with it.+

20) All members of Schendi must have all members on their buddies list and will not block or remove any family members from their friends list. When people leave or get banned from Schendi for whatever reason, they are to be removed from your friends list.
+14) All member of Schendi must have all members of Schendi on their friends list and will not block or remove any members from their friends list.+

21) Any slave coming into Schendi, who is given to any Free of Schendi by the original "non-Schendi" owner, or a slave coming into Schendi under another Frees protection, will be collared by a member of the Schendi Council and do probation as per laws. Once the slave has met all Schendi new slave requirements, they are then owned by the Free they were given to. At such time of transaction, there needs to be a second Free as witness as well and a chat log of the transaction proving the slave was given to a Schendi Free to take over ownership.
+We will just treat these slaves as new slaves of Schendi since that is exactly what they are. Plus this is dealt with in the Candidate section.+

22) All Free and slaves are expected to post a recap of any chats with visitors. Visitor logs, whether occurring in Schendi or traveling are to be saved in the visitors log in this forum.
+Is honestly a stupid law.+

23) Poaching law: personal slaves of Schendi Free are not to be taken/lured/poached away from that Free by any other Schendi Free who may desire that slave. Furthermore, any personal slave released as personal slave, will become a Schendi city slave and must stay a city slave for a minimum of 30 days before they can become a personal slave to a Free again... and then, only if approved by Ubar. slave papers will be updated to show any changes.
+15) Poaching law –Personal slaves of Schendi Free are not to be taken/lured/poached away from that free by any other Free, Schendi or not, who may desire that slave. Furthermore, any personal slave released, will become a Schendi city slave until they are taken once more as a personal slave by a Schendi free , freed, or killed.+

Free Candidates

1) By the 14th day after becoming a Candidate, all new Free Candidates must read and study all the laws and write a 1-2 sentence response for each law as to what that law means to them and post to their personal thread (review Candidates laws first, then general, and slave last).Master Candidates are to be offered sexual with all slaves three times during their probationary period, beginning on the 6th day, with the stipulation that the Free Candidate will have made and average of 3 posts each day (21 total)to this forum, as a perk of their potential membership and to see how well they fit in to the city. Candidate must ask the Ubar or slaves owner, for use above three times.
+This is unnecessary.+

2) All Master Candidates will go through a 30 day review period during which time they can see if Schendi is right for them and vice versa. They will be given copy of laws after 3 days of participation in the room and have a 5 day waiting period before being asked to forum. During that 30 day time period, all Candidates must learn the laws and pass a simple test on the history of the city, facts of the city, our laws etc. 20 questions. slaves owned by the Candidate, may be brought with the Candidate and must go through the same process as any new slave, except that they will bypass the three day collaring rule and in-depth interview, but be subject to all other potential slave requirements as outlined in slave law #2.
+1) All slaves brought in by Free Candidates are to be put through the usual slave trial, just like any other slave. If the slave of the Free Candidate does not pass, then a discussion on what shall be done will have to be scheduled with the Tatrix and Council.+

3) The Schendi Council will make the initial decision by vote to accept the Free as a Candidate and at the end of the 30 days, the Council will vote to determine if the Candidate is accepted.
+Number needs changing.+

4) Candidates are strictly prohibited from "poaching" (collaring/stealing) either Schendi slaves or un-owned slaves who enter Schendi. In addition, Candidates may not punish slaves during their 30 days.
+3) Candidates may not punish any slaves during their trial period.+

5) Candidates many not select or collar a slave to be their personal slave until after their ceremony.
+Is a repeat of another law, therefore can be removed.+

Laws of visiting Free Women

1) Free women are to be respected and protected by all men of Schendi at all times. FW cannot forgo robes of concealment but may be without hood and veil with no risk of being collared.


2) Force collars are permitted but only in cases where the FW is extremely offensive or disrespectful and only if the Schendi Master sells the FW upon collaring. FW who act like sluts may be collared and treated like sluts.

Laws of Schendi slaves

It is the sole mission of all Schendi slaves to please, pleasure, obey and serve the Schendi Free. Failure to do so is a capital offense. In the absence of any Schendi Free in the room, slaves will report to the Schendi FG who will be in charge of the slaves when a Schendi Free is not present.
+ It is the sole mission of all Schendi slaves to please, pleasure, obey and serve the Schendi Free. Failure to do so is a capital offense. In the absence of any Schendi Free in the room, slaves will report to the Schendi FG who will be in charge of the slaves when a Schendi Free is not present. Being a slave in Schendi is an honor and a privilege and being trained in the basics of Gorean slave skills is essential for all Schendi slaves. All girls need to know the laws of Schendi and what is expected of them, they need to know how to enter and exit a room, speak properly, address the Masters and other Free properly, ask to be excused properly, serve basic drinks and food properly and maybe a dance or two. Slaves are expected to attend training classes as applicable and complete any training as required.+

All slaves must learn the slave Creed -

He is Master, and girl is slave.
He is owner, and girl is owned.
He commands, and girl obeys.
He is to be pleased, and girl is to please.
Why is this?
Because He is Master, and girl is slave.
+I understand that the slaves of Schendi are to speak in the third person, but I would like to please change how the slave Creed has been put in here. Seeing as it is a misquote.+

1) Schendi city slaves are the property of the Masters of Schendi and are a valuable asset to the city. slaves are considered property, on the same level as animals. Their owner may do anything they wish to them within the rp, without repercussion. Any Free person that finds offense with another's slave may punish that slave at will with advance approval by the slave’s owner (Council in the case of Schendi city slaves). City slaves must wear the city collar and brands at all times. Failure to not have the collar on is a capital offense. Co
+1) Any Free person that finds offense with another’s slave may punish that slave at will with advance approval by the slave’s owner { a Council member in case of city slaves }. Schendi slaves must wear their collars and brands at all times. –Co +

2) slave collaring process - All un-owned slaves determined to be a potential Schendi candidate are stripped naked after entering and caged for three days. slave candidates will be collared with a city collar (by a Schendi Council member), after the three day waiting period, and after their interview, background check and any other assigned projects have been completed. slaves will be granted forum access at the time they are collared. During the three days, slaves will be given a copy of the Schendi laws to read and will be told about the 10 minute rule and how they are not to travel.

Newly collared slave candidates must successfully complete a 30 day probationary period that includes completing the laws project, writing an acceptable 500 word essay on why they wish to join Schendi and successfully passing a 20 question slave test. Additionally, slave papers on the slave will be completed during this time. The 30 day period begins on the date the slave enters the forum. by the 14th day after becoming a slave candidate, all new slaves must read and study all the laws and write a 1-2 sentence response for each law as to what that law means to them and post to their personal thread. The slave will be restricted from any sexual activity for the first 3 days (beginning the first day they arrive in Schendi).
+These things are merely a repeat of what has been stated in the general laws. Away with them.+

3) Within 10 minutes of coming online, all slaves are required to report to the main Schendi room prepared for service. slaves are required to spend the majority of their online time in Schendi as they are part of the family and their participation is required. slaves are never permitted to be in "dnd" or any form thereof when online. slaves are not permitted to chat elsewhere unless it’s to a Schendi family member and then only in Schendi rooms or private. The slave must have a presence (even if afk) in the main room even if a Schendi Master calls them private. In those cases when called private, a slave needs to post an "afk" or "brb" sign and move to a block. slaves are not to sit on pillows in the main room. Those are for FW and some Masters who prefer pillows to a throne. slaves are to be at blocks or beside or in front of a Free. CO
+2) Within 10 minutes of coming online, all slaves are required to report to the main Schendi room prepared for service. Slaves are required to spend the majority of their online time in Schendi as they are part of the family and their participation is required.+ Some of that is addressed in the next law and some of it is just not able to be done.+

4) When a slave needs to leave the room temporarily (due to a real life situation of 15 minutes or less), she needs to do the following; ask the Free if you may be excused due to (real life work, call, children, etc)… use the ( ) to designate ooc, then wait until they say you may and then thank them and go afk (use an "afk" or "brb" sign) and then move to a block. When you return…say may this slut return if it pleases the Free? ... and then slip back in and thank them. This is one of the few instances where ooc can be used. If a slave needs to be afk or brb longer than 15 minutes she begs to be dismissed from the room ....... then closes the room and exits imvu or indicates in her imvu status screen that she is away. If a slave has to exit immediately due to a rl situation, they are to just exit saying nothing, and then explain upon their return. Do not stay in the room. If a slave crashes and comes back within 15 minutes, she is simply to say ("girl crashed, may she return please"). If she is gone longer than 15 minutes or does not return, she needs to send a message to the Free who were in the room explaining that she crashed and why she did not return.
+3) When a slave needs to step away from the keyboard temporarily, she needs to ask the free if she may be excused ooc, wait until they respond, thank them, then move to a block. If a slave is in a rush she may simply say “afk” or “brb” and move to a block, but she must explain herself as to why the sudden needing to step away once she has returned. If a slave must leave the room without any explanation, she must PM the Free who were in the room the next time she is online, apologizing and explaining as to why she left.+

5) slaves must follow any command issues by any Schendi Free (as long as it does not break any Schendi laws), at any time or suffer the consequences. Failure to do so is a capital offense. CO
+4) Slaves must follow any command issued by any Schendi Free, at any time {as long as it does not break any Schendi laws}. –Co +

6) slaves possess nothing not given to them by their owner, including their name. Any Schendi Free (non-Candidate), may use any slave at any time for any purpose. CO
+Does not need to be written down.+

7) slaves who have been in Schendi for 90 days and are in good standing may travel solo outside of Schendi if there are no Schendi Free online but must have received approval to travel prior to traveling (from their owner or a member of Council if a city slave), and may only travel to safe zones or pre-approved rooms. slave must return if any Schendi Free comes online while slave is traveling; slave must post a full log of their travel within one hour of the visit; and finally, any slave captured while traveling, will not be sought after as they should know how to escape a room. CO
+Needs the number changed.+

8- slaves are not to speak of the business of Schendi to any outside visitor unless under express permission from a Free and doing so is a capital offense. slaves are never to visit the camps of Schendi enemies (those on blocked and banned list). CO
+Needs the number changed.+

9) All Free persons are to be addressed as Master or Mistress, Jarl/Ubar unless given specific permission by Free to use another title of their choosing. Never call or refer to a Free by their name. Serve every Free as if your well being depends on being pleasing.......it does. While a Free person may not always be right, they are, by definition, never wrong. slaves always have the last word in any disagreement. The words "yes, Master"... the First Girl is to be called "First Girl."
+7) All Free are to be addressed as Master, Mistress, Jarl, or the specific name title they have/choose. Never call or refer to a Free by their name unless it is to clarify something. The First Girl is to be called either sister or Mistress/First Girl. Mistress only when there are no Free in the room.+ I remember reading something about First Girls being called Mistress, but I don’t remember where. I’m perfectly flexible on that part of the law.+

10) slaves speak in the 3rd person and do not ever use the first person pronoun in public rooms. There is no "i" "me" or "mine" in a slave’s vocabulary. In addition slaves are not permitted to use abbreviations like "brb", "ty", "yw", "gtg", "lol", "bc" etc.... spell it out. The only exception is the use of my when referring to a slaves owner.
+ Slaves speak in the 3rd person at all times while in public rooms. The only exception is the use of “my” when referring to the slave’s owner. Slaves are never to use text talk while RPing, and it is frowned upon when ooc.+

11) All slaves may be bred at any time and may be confined to breeding area during fertile periods if requested by any Master. Babies carried and born by slaves may be kept as slaves, sold off or made Free, based on a vote of Council.
+Number needs to be changed.+

12) slaves must post their personal fertility information (real life ovulation days) to the forum and wear the fertile anklet during their fertile period. In addition, slaves are to be administered slave wine once each month (by their owner or Council member), as a form of contraception until the Free decide they are to be bred.

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
+I do not think we need to do actual ovulation days, as it’s sort of weird. And I believe the slave wine doesn’t need to be RPed out unless people feel the need to.+

+Number needs to be changed.+

14) slaves will wear clothing, or not wear clothing, decided upon by their Masters. All slave candidates will wear a Schendi camisk during their probationary period and until after their ceremony.

+Number needs to be changed.+

16) All slaves will be branded within a reasonable time period as determined by the Council. - By recommendation of merchant law, there are three standard marking places for brands, on the left inner thigh, left outer thigh, and lower abdomen. The slave will be prepared for the ceremony by one to three slaves who will bathe, style the hair of, shave and otherwise prepare the slave's body for the ceremony, branding and initiation.
+Number needs to be changed.+

17) Entering/Greeting: The following is the greeting that slaves are to use when greeting Schendi Free citizens and "Candidates", whether there are guests in the room or not. The First Girl greets before any of the other slaves.

Entering the room: If a slave asks for permission to enter and the Free do not respond within 2 minutes, the slave may "slip in" to the room, making note in her post. slaves will always ask permission to enter the room when a Free or First Girl of Schendi is present and will perform the required entry. If no Free are present, but the first girl is, the slave may perform an abbreviated entry but still must ask permission to enter the room." If a non-Schendi Free is the only Free in the room when a slave enters, they do not need to ask permission to enter.

Greeting Schendi Masters: Move to the feet of the Free you are greeting, drop to your knees and nadu and kiss their cock and then their feet. Once you have done this - you can then greet verbally. You can be creative in your words to be unique but do not remove their boots or shoes. Kissing the cock and feet of the Master is to show respect, submission and your willingness to serve, obey, pleasure and please. If the Free does not respond within 2 minutes, the slave may move on to the next Free to greet stating why in her post. slaves are required to complete their greets to all Free in the room before stopping the greeting process and offering to serve one. Free will not greet any slave entering until the slave has made an appropriate entrance and greeted that particular Free.

Greeting non-Schendi Free: When a Gorean visitor comes to visit Schendi, slaves are to wait for the Schendi Free to greet first...followed by the First Girl. If no Free are in attendance, slaves shall proceed with the First Girl leading. Move to the Master and nadu and tower for any FW.

NOTE: There is to be no cock kissing in the greeting when any visitor (Free or slave), is present and slaves are to be discrete with their nadu when a FW is present.
+Number needs to be changed.+

18) Low protocol” entrance: There are times when a slave should enter "low protocol" - when she has little time irl, but wants to come in the room either to say hi or deliver a message, etc, or a Free has asked for a low protocol entrance. In those cases, a slave may enter and says, “May this slave enter under low protocol due to real life or as per the Free's request”? In this case, the Free will say either you may or may not. If you are granted entrance, proceed to do a shortened greeting.
+Number needs to be changed.+

19) slaves may not charge for any services, private or otherwise unless directed to by a Master or in the line of duty if working in the tavern.
+Number needs to be changed.+

20) All Schendi slaves are required to show their buddies, visitors and messages on their hp at all times, and all required stickers as determined by the Council. slaves may have their hp's as well as their face, hair, body, eyes, etc redone to reflect their owner’s desires. All slaves are required to have their “imvu room locators” on at all times. – CO
+This law is may have been good at one point in time, but not anymore.+

21) Being a slave in Schendi is an honor and a privilege and being trained in the basics of Gorean slave skills is essential for all Schendi slaves. All girls need to know the laws of Schendi and what is expected of them, they need to know how to enter and exit a room, speak properly, address the Masters and other Free properly, ask to be excused properly, serve basic drinks and food properly and maybe a dance or two. slaves are expected to attend training classes as applicable and complete any training as required.

"'Those who brought you to Gor,' I said, 'doubtless had that fate eventually in mind for you. 'That is a lie!' she said 'It would have been easy enough to find ugly women,' I said. 'No,' she said. 'No!' 'You are too beautiful to be long left free,' I said. 'No!' she said. 'It is my conjecture,' I said, 'that you were eventually to be given to Drusus.' 'Given?' she said. 'Of course,' I said, 'as a slave.' 'No!' she cried. 'You are indeed naive,' I said. 'Do you think a woman as beautiful as you on Gor could long keep out of the collar?' She looked at me with horror. I gagged her, that she might not cry out." --Beasts of Gor, pages 201-202
