Pack Law

***\*This article is still under construction!***

The Pack Law is the set of rules that Pack dogs abide by. It is broken up into three main sections with finer rules placed within each section.

The first section, titled *In Reference to Warriorship and Battles*, is the set of rules that warriors and medicine dogs follow while in battle.

The second section, titled *In Reference to Medicinal Practices*, is the set of rules that medicine dogs and sometimes warriors (if helping the medicine dog) generally follow.

The third section, titled *In Reference to Civility*, is the set of rules that all Pack members follow with how they interact with and treat each other.

The fourth section, titled *The Leader's Law*, is an extra section for new Pack leaders, and deputies whose leaders are dying, to learn in order to lead their Pack well.

## Current Pack Law

This is the set of Pack laws that are currently in use.

### Section One: In Reference to Warriorship and Battles

1. Warriors who engage in battle do not need to kill to proclaim victory.
2. Warriors must never harm an elder or a pup. Failing to abide by this law may result in the assignment of dangerous duties, or if repeated, may result in expulsion from the Pack.
3. Warriors must never touch the medicine supply of another group of dogs while in battle. Failing to abide by this law may result in being shunned by the Pack or an assignment of a dangerous duty, or if repeated, may result in expulsion from the Pack.

### Section Two: In Reference to Medicinal Practices

1. Medicine dogs must never reject any pup or elder in need. Every pup and elder is worthy of receiving the best quality treatment, no matter the background of the pup or elder.
2. Medicine dogs must never touch the medicine supply of another group of dogs while in battle. Failing to abide by this law may result in being shunned by the Pack or an assignment of a dangerous duty, or if repeated, may result in expulsion from the Pack.
3. Medicine dogs are encouraged to seek help from dogs outside of the Pack if needed. Medicinal herbs and supplies do not have a territory.

### Section Three: In Reference to Civility

1. Every dog within the Pack is deserving of the utmost respect. Usage of vulgar words or slurs towards another dog is punishable.
2. Pack members are expected to show exceptional respect to the medicine dog, deputy, and leader. These dogs keep the Pack running, and they are deserving of the highest level of civility.
3. Any Pack member who plots against his Pack or a particular member or group within his Pack is punishable by expulsion from the Pack. Any type of betrayal is punishable by expulsion and excommunication.
	1. The use of violence against another Pack member, with the exception of battle training, is prohibited. Any Pack member who violates this principle is punishable by the assignment of dangerous tasks or expulsion from the Pack.
	2. The drawing of blood during battle training is punishable between a verbal warning and the assignment of being given dangerous tasks.
4. All Pack members are expected to reject all other lifestyles. Failure to do so may result in a punishment from anywhere between being shunned by the Pack to expulsion and excommunication from the Pack.

### Section Four: The Leader's Law

1. A Pack leader pledges his utmost loyalty to his Pack. He must never turn his back on his Pack, and reject all other forms of living.
2. The Pack members decide what is best. Pack members have the right to overthrow the Pack leader and self-appoint a new leader if the Pack leader does not fulfill their needs or meet their expectations.
3. A Pack leader who turns against his Pack with violence and war shall be condemned to the Black Desert Dimension.

## Former Laws

* Section three used to have a point that stated that dogs must not mate or have pups with a dog outside of their own breed. This law was later rejected when it led to a lot of inbreeding.
