Property Police

## Founding

The Property Police was founded by Martyn and Jimmy, and their headquarters is located within the spawn area.

## Buildings

### The Property Police station

The Property Police station was first built as an average oak wood house, with the initials of 'Property Police' on the roof written in stone. Grian briefly changed it to read 'POO' instead, but later removed it. The basement's floor there was rigged with TNT by Grian and Netty during a livestream, and it was accidentally triggered by Salem soon after.

Since then, Grian has rebuilt the station with mostly stone, wool and clay, along with some windows and the initials of 'Property Police' on the front written with glowstone (formerly in stone). The old blown-up station is now the bottom of the Property Police station, and mostly nothing changed after Grian rebuilt the station.

## History

The Property Police's job is to give comments to others' property, and decide whether they should be punished. For example, when they saw the Grian Empire, they left a message criticizing him for having a hole in the ocean.

They have had a fairly bad history with the Mafia, eventually causing a war between the two sides. The Mafia were teamed up with Dirt Cheap, breaking the rules that the Property Police were trying to enforce. They vandalized the Spawn area by covering what used to be a Grian head with a dirt tower and replacing Grian's head with an 'M' for 'Mafia'. They also vandalized the Property Police station with graffiti.

### K9 Members

The Property Police have had various canine members of the force. The first was Rufus, tamed by Jimmy. Rufus heroically survived the destruction of the Property Police station, but was later killed by Mini in an attempt to coerce the Property Police into returning his confiscated diamond gear. Later, 2fus (also known as Rufus 2.0) joined the force, again tamed by Jimmy. 2fus tragically lost his life while defending Jimmy from Zee. A third dog was found and named 3PeeOh. 3PeeOh was later accidentally killed by Zee.

### Destruction of the Station

During a livestream of Netty's, she and Grian put TNT into the Property Police's floor as a joke. Salem found the TNT and panicked, trying to cover it with sand. However, in doing so, she accidentally triggered one of the TNT blocks, which then destroyed the entire building.

Grian felt bad about the prank gone wrong, so he built the Property Police a new station on top of the ruins of the old one. He did so in an attempt to get immunity from his involvement in the destruction of the station. While the Property Police were not willing to grant him full blanket immunity, they were willing to let his involvement in this particular incident slide.

### Listeners

The Property Police were presumably the first members to learn about the Listeners' existence. They grew fond of the Listeners, usually thanking them for doing favors for nothing much in return. The Property Police first learned about the Listeners when they helped them with their inventory, since the Watchers only allowed said members to only bring however much their inventories can handle.

## Relationships

### Neutral relationships

The Property Police are neutral with the Grian Empire and the Taurtis Republic.

The Property Police's relationship with the Empire was relatively poor until Grian built a new base for them, in return for full immunity from his involvement in the destruction of their original base. Although the Property Police didn't grant him *full* immunity, they do have a better relationship with the Grian Empire now.

The Taurtis Republic has sided with almost everyone the server except for the Grian Empire, since they were at war. So, it can be assumed that Taurtis has made it his goal to befriend everyone (except the Empire). One may think it is strange that the Property Police are allies with someone who sides with the Mafia, but since Taurtis wasn't really planning anything bad with the Mafia, and Taurtis is Taurtis, it is a minor issue at best.

### Negative relationships

The Mafia, Tomohawk and Dirt Cheap are all enemies of the Property Police.

The Property Police are *de facto* arch-enemies with the Mafia, and were at war for a period of time, as they were trying to stop and prevent the Mafia from taking action.

The reason the Property Police are enemies with Dirt Cheap is most likely because they side with the Mafia, and completely ignores the standards of a property that the Property Police made up. Another possible reason is that Dirt Cheap killed Grian, whom they are somewhat allied with, with their dirt towers.
