| - Any citizen accused of a punishable offense must be given the means, through magic or otherwise, to prove his innocence.

| - | The punishments under the law vary, but are decided by a mediator with the offender and the victim, his family, or an appointed representative present. Standard punishments are fines, service by the offender to the victim, or death of the offender. The mediations are typically held at a temple building, although the council has authority to alter the mediation location. The punishment handed down by the mediator is somewhat influenced by the temple it is held in. For example, as of 10055, no death sentences have been handed down by a mediator at the temple of Isis. | + | The punishments under the law vary, but are decided by a mediator with the offender and the victim, his family, or an appointed representative present.

| - | During the initial founding of Rougtero in 10017, the temples of the area laid claim to most of the land. The previous citizens of Karfelon were each allotted their own piece of land equal to the amount of land they had the right to in Karfelon. Since this time, some of the temples have sold some of their land to allow for the building up of the city, but some temples still maintain a stronghold on the land that they own around Rougtero, namely the Enclave and the Osirisites.. | + | During the initial founding of Rougtero in 2493, the temples of the area laid claim to most of the land.

| The deed to a piece of property must be obtained in order to have legal ownership of a piece of land. Usually this involves a monetary transaction with the owner of the property and a barrister creating a document stating who the owner of the property is, signatures of the buyer and seller as well as a witness and the barrister. Typically, the barrister maintains an original of this document in the event of a property dispute. When a temple sells their property, it is a very similar process with the head priest and another priest of the temple acting as seller and witness. | The deed to a piece of property must be obtained in order to have legal ownership of a piece of land.

| Under the Solarium is a portal that leads to a highly secure prison. It houses highly dangerous prisoners and is largely an anti-magic zone (expect for certain Priests of Ra, which can use magic). The prison is used by Rougtero and has been contracted to house other prisons by the Centralia Mage's Guild, Centralia City, the Torite, and other entities that wish to house prisoners. As of this date, there have been no escapes | Under the Solarium is a portal that leads to a highly secure prison.
