The Laws of Kimori

I. The First Law

All for one and one for all. A Kimori looks out for his fellow Kimori. It is a right as it is a duty. Being a Kimori means something, take to it with care.

1. No actions may be taken that damage the First Law. This includes actions of malicious intent from one Kimori to the other.
2. The First Law applies to all members of Kimori, unless the member broke the First Law.

II. The Traditions

1. The Tattoo

All Kimori have dark blue tribal markings as a tattoo. The location varies. The tattoo is received at

• The Initiation Ritual of Return. In which the Kimori celebrate the return of their lost family;
• The Celebration of Ascendance. In which they celebrate the coming of age of a Kimori child;
• The Acquisition of Honour. In which they embrace spouses as if they were one of their own.

2. Marriage

When marrying, the Kimori name is always the dominant one. Spouses marry into the family and must accept the Kimori name. The spouse will then acquire honour and be treated like any other Kimori.

• Refusal is considered a disgrace and insult to the family. The spouse will be rejected as suitable material.
• For a Kimori to denounce their Kimori name and take upon the name of another, is considered a breach of the First Law and should be dealt to accordingly.

3. The Initiation Ritual of Return

Any Kimori returning to the fold must be tested first. He or she must talk to the head of the family and as many other Kimori as possible. The claim will then be tested. If he/she speaks the truth, they pass and return. If they fail, their soul is cursed for all eternity.

4. Magical Family Channel

Kimori only. If they don't have the last name, they can't have acces to it. This includes the entire spectrum of banned, ex-kimori and alternative version and what not.

III. The Council

The council consists out of the following members and has several tasks:

Members:

• Honourable Tiger of the Leaf (Head of the family)
• Evergreen Little Kitten (Administration)
• Bonsai Sensei (Advice, Archive)
• Keeper of the Rake (Finance)

Tasks:

1. Shape traditions and laws
2. Judge these laws
3. Punish whenever these laws are broken

When the council gathers, this must be announced at least a week before hand. All Kimori's may participate at the councils, but the decision remains with the council.

In case of a draw in any matter, the head of the family decides.
