MISCELLANEOUS LAWS
1) Slaves are not required to ask permission to enter camps, but must request permission from a Free Person to leave. If the request is not granted in a reasonable amount of time, then repeat the request, as it might have been missed. If a second request is not answered, then politely take your leave.
2) All Free Persons and Tribe Friendly are to be greeted upon entering, except when a slave is serving, then they are to be greeted once their serve is complete. The Free are to be addressed simply as Master or Mistress, the only time a slave may use a Masters name is when the Masters have given them permission to do so or in action or thought to specify one from the other.
3) Speaking to the Free in camp is not forbidden, and many fun things can be shared, as is appropriate. Free floating thoughts will be considered as speech...if they are rude or insolent expect to be corrected quickly with a hand across your face. If you have something that is not nice to say.....whisper to the person...and choose your words and thoughts carefully....and remember, Its not a slaves place to challenge the free.
4) Slaves do not speak in the first person. Tribe slaves also do not speak OOC in public rooms. Use of brackets " ((.....)) of any type is forbidden. If you must say something OOC do it in whispers, and ask permission to whisper in the room. Slaves should expect to be cuffed should they do either. Remember, a backhand across the face is not punishment, it is a correction. Even if your punishments are reserved, corrections are for all.
5) All Tuchuk Slaves will speak 3rd person in public ... what you do in PR with your owner is their rules.
6) Master's or Mistresses should be treated with equal respect from a slave. NO slave should "ignore" a request from either sex..... just because you are a Kajira, does not mean you should entice just the Master's...... same for kajriu, except, reversed.
7) Do not correct another slaves actions in public....but whisper to them in polite terms.
8) Unruly, disruptive or insolent slaves may be asked to leave camp until their Owner is present to deal with them. The Ubar, Ubara, and Guardian have the right to kill any unruly or disruptive slaves, punishment reserved or not.

11) A white silk slave means the slave has yet to be opened for pleasures and is untrained. Once the slave is trained and opened, they are red silk. Do not rush to become red silk, for if you are not 100% pleasing in any situation..... serving ... speaking.....manners and sexual..... you may be killed. There is no such thing as a "reserved" slave..... you may be a "preferred" slave to your owner, but even listing such does not "save" you from being used by others..... if you do not want to be used by others, you should remain white silk. Red silk is a passion slave and for one to be "reserved" is death upon their heart..... and torment to the soul.
12) Macros or Power Tools are a lazy way of serving....they are forbidden to be used. There will be swift repercussions for laziness. If a girl is not serving she is to be working.....or begging to serve. An idle slave is in no way pleasing.

16) Tribe slaves are sisters in chains to try to shirk your work onto another shall bring punishment unless a Master/Mistress gives it the OK.
17) Slave's engaging in "horseplay" or any other type of "attention getting" ways...(other than the seductive allure towards a Free person)).... will be punished..... growling, glaring, snarling, jealousy or any form of "visual or verbal back talk" will be corrected.

A slaves lips are never to touch the vessel, except for their owners, if they choose.
21) Slaves will never EVER argue with the Free......If a Master/Mistress says the sky is Green and the Grass is Blue........ then so be it...... whining, pouting or sighing is the sign of a bored slave..... and that is not allowed....... keep busy with camp chores and be pleasing..... remember not only does your actions reflect on your owner...but your Ubar, Ubara and Tribe.
