About the boundaries of the City of Padorn
The City of Padorn is the peaceful capital of the whole world. Many
innocent travellers und unexperienced adventurers are visiting it to
have a look at its beautiful sights or to earn some money peacefully
trading goods from all over the world. Therefore those visitors do
have a right to demand a superior protection of their health and their
belongings.
Thus the basic fines raised for crimes commited inside the boundaries
of the City of Padorn are usually significantly higher than those
basic fines raised somewhere else in Primordia.
The boundaries of Padorn definitely include the city's gates, the
walkway on top of the city's walls, the sewery system, and the harbour
area.

Violation of Primordia's Security
There are some actions that are automatically estimated as a severe
attempt to harm the public security of the Primordian society. Any
member of society is encouraged to protect the public security against
those actions, especially by supporting the Area Court in pursuing
people performing them.
Actions violating the public security are:
- Performing dark magic:
Performing dark magic is a severe case of violating the public
security, since nearly all necromantic spells are bound to do
some severe harm to innocent people.
- Sacrificing any living being:
It is obvious that this is one of the most evil deeds existing.
And it is obvious too, that it shall not be tolerated by a
peaceful society.
- Studying dark magic, especially studying the Necronomicon:
Since sooner or later anyone studying this foul art will be
tempted to use his/her new knowledge, studying dark magic is
undoubtedly a (future) violation of the public security.
- Summoning beings from the lower plains:
Summoning evil beings from the lower plains, like imps, demons,
or undeads, is a severe violation of the public security, since
these beings are exclusively created to do evil deeds and thus
undoubtedly will do them sooner or later. Therefore anyone is
allowed to drive them back to the realm of eternal darkness they
have crept up from.
- Wearing an assassin's mask:
Wearing an assassin's mask, and thus hiding one's appearance,
usually is a truely sign that the person wearing the mask is
about to fullfill a job of murder. Therefore even wearing this
mask is estimated to be a violation of the public security.
Each reported case of violating the public security is fined with a
basic fine of 10 platinum coins payable to the Area Court of
Primordia. The basic fine is doubled for violations commited inside
the boundaries of the City of Padorn.

Precautions taken inside the City of Padorn
To prevent severe violations of the public security inside the
boundaries of the City of Padorn, access is denied to any Necromancer
and any Priest of Huitzilopochtli between sunset and dawn. Thus the
Area Court of Primordia wants to secure an undisturbed nighttime for
the inhabitants of Padorn.
Any attempt of violating this law may be subject to severe punishment.

Violation of Holy Places
The Area Court of Primordia grants superior protection to the holy
places of any religion. Thus disturbing the holy aura of such a place,
either by words or by actions, is estimated to be a severe crime.

If a sentenced criminal fails to pay a pending fine within an
appropriate amount of time, the Area Court of Primordia may take
further actions to encourage payment.

will have been fully paid off.
