~*IC Laws of Phoenix*~

Here is a comprehensive list of crimes and punishments for easy viewing.
Laws are in place to govern IC society. They have been added to forward the RP and make it more interesting. Its your choice if your character follows these laws, although anyone found breaking the Law may find actions taken against them, including fines, being brought to the dungeon, or both. If you want to plead your case you battle it out in court. Remember these are IC laws so deal with them in Character.
