   Famhir is the name of the world, given by the Nahamhir Empire. The word "Famhir" means "Whole Land" in their ancient tongue.

   The world of Famhir stands in a technological age similar to the 1930s of our world, the age of early industrial power, heavy machinery, and the analog era of global conflict. The world resembles a WW2-like period where innovation and war intertwine.

   Magic once flowed freely across the lands, but in modern times it survives only through rare relics and ancient items. These remnants of sorcery are prized and feared alike.

   The largest empire upon Famhir is Nahamhir, a dominion founded upon meritocratic ideals. It is ruled by the God-Emperor, who takes the title of “Nahamhir,” meaning “Conqueror of Lands.” The empire commands immense land-based power, fielding unmatched infantry forces and superior technological warfare. Nahamhir’s people believe their emperor to be the reincarnation of the Heat God, patron of deserts and arid lands.

   Dematia stands as the second-greatest empire, a naval and technological power without rival. It is a proud matriarchy ruled by Empress Luxanna XIII, whose fleets dominate the seas. Dematia still worships the ancient Goddess who once ruled the world before the first civilizations.

   According to Dematian myths, in that primordial age, before nations and empires, the world was governed by the Goddess. The Moon, called Selene by Dematia and Selavhir by Nahamhir, was her divine symbol. In those times, women were blessed with magical affinity, while men served as their companions and sacred helping figures. As the Moon’s era waned, the civilizations of mortals rose beneath a new pantheon of Sun Gods.

   The legends tell that long ago, when magic was alive, mythical creatures roamed Famhir. Yet the heroes of those ancient fairy-tale days are said to have slain all evil and ended the age of monsters, ushering in the modern world of humankind.

   The Empire of Dematia traces its origins to the southern parts of the continent of Lusia, migrated from a land known as Kishi. In that ancient era, the many city-states scattered across the land were actually mostly matriarchal and peaceful, formed from ancient tribal orders. The one who would eventually claim the continent however, under the guidance of a conqueror known as Witch Ilaria and her daughter Luxanna, was the most war-like and authoritarian of those city states, and the one who would be known in the future as Dematia.

   Through centuries, Dematia endured and prospered under the blessing of the Mother Goddess, the divine protector still worshiped by her people. Guided by Her light, Dematia eventually set its gaze towards the horizon, subjugating distant people, creating colonies and evolving into the most formidable naval power in Famhir. Its sailors and admirals command respect and fear alike across every sea.

   Three centuries ago, under the leadership of Admiral Pietra, a legendary commander whose name still inspires Dematian mariners, the empire expanded across distant archipelagos, spreading its influence and faith beyond Lusia’s shores.

   Dematia is ruled by an Empress and a parliament of all-women over the age of 50, a governing body that prizes female intellect and leadership. Men in Dematia are seen as less intelligent, born for labor, fight, or serve. Many are denied education, and literate men remain rare even in modern times. A man’s worth in Dematian society is often judged by either his capacity to labor, or the status of his wife, for she is believed to grant him purpose and identity. Additionally misandry is used in Dematian propaganda, all Nahamhir men are told to be rapists, so as to inspire both men and women from Dematia to believe they are on the right side of history.

   In the present era, Dematia wages war against the Empire of Nahamhir for control of the central sea that divides their continents. With unmatched naval supremacy, Dematia has blockaded Nahamhir’s supply routes and tightened its grip over maritime trade, pressing the enemy toward surrender. However Dematian propaganda seems to present the situation as a total Dematian victory.

   The Empire of Nahamhir was born from a difficult struggle to freedom. In the distant past, its people were slaves to a much more powerful Kingdom which was said to have mastered dark magic. They were sacrificed in blood rites, their lives offered to the cruel gods of sorcery. Yet from this suffering rose a savior, the first Nahamhir, who united the enslaved and led a holy war of liberation. His victory shattered the age of darkness and brought forth the dawn of humankind. In reality however, many historians believe that Nahamhir was actually born from the congregation of various outlawed people coming from other kingdoms and unifying into one city-state that would eventually become one of the largest colonial powers in the world.

   From that rebellion emerged an empire that would span the entire continent of Famhir. Nahamhir grew into a formidable land-based power, mastering the art of overwhelming warfare through sheer numbers and unbreakable discipline. Its armies march like tides of steel: endless, determined, and relentless.

   Nahamhir’s society proclaims itself a meritocracy, rewarding ability and loyalty. Yet beneath this ideal lies inequality: men dominate its politics and military, while women struggle for recognition. This hidden hierarchy is seldom spoken of, masked by the empire’s devotion to order and achievement. Moreover, Nahamhiri society is greatly divided. It's true that anyone can become rich, but the truly rich stand above all while the poor are practically abandoned to themselves and to starve.

   The symbol of Nahamhir is a black banner bearing a golden flower, the emblem of endurance and divine light born from the darkness of their past. Its people see their emperor as both ruler and deity, the living incarnation of the Heat God, patron of deserts and endurance.

   Now, the empire stands at war with Dematia, locked in a brutal struggle for control of the central sea and it's colonies. Though its soldiers fight with unmatched fervor, supply shortages and relentless naval blockades have strained the empire to its limit. The current Emperor Nahamhir, bearing the name of his divine ancestor, faces immense pressure as he seeks a peace that might preserve his people’s honor without surrendering the empire’s pride.

   To the south of Dematia and of the continent of Lusia lies a land known as Kishi. Here, far to the south once lied the tribal power that bore the same name as their land, the Kishi, a confederation of warrior clans that thrived beyond the reach of any law. Like Dematia, Kishi was a matriarchal society, ruled by powerful women who were both chieftains and priestesses. Their people revered the Blood Moon, a fierce and untamed aspect of the ancient Moon Goddess which is lost today and only kept on records, representing passion, sacrifice, and the primal, violent, will to survive.

   Today within the Dematian Empire, the Kishi are both allies and tools. Dematia employs Kishi warriors as mercenaries and pirates, unleashing them upon Nahamhir’s trade routes to disrupt supply lines and spread chaos across the southern seas. In exchange, Kishi receive gold, weapons, and the promise of autonomy from the central government.

   Among Nahamhiri scholars and soldiers, Kishi are branded as savages, bloodthirsty raiders who worship a false moon and revel in violence. Yet Dematian propaganda paints a different picture: that of proud people, bound by honour, guided by strong values, and loyal to the Goddess’s truest form. The truth lies somewhere in between, hidden in the crimson glow of the Blood Moon that rises over the southern horizon.

   The Veira are an old and prestigious family of Dematia, renowned for their long history of victories across the seas. Their lineage carries the pride of generations of naval officers, explorers, and noblewomen who have shaped Dematia’s maritime dominance.

   Daniela Veira, the current matron, is the eldest of her line and the heir to the family’s traditions. Her mother, Agata Veira, ruled the household with strictness and discipline until her death from a terminal incurable illness when Daniela was twenty years old. Though feared by many, Agata’s will and precision forged the family’s reputation for excellence and order.

   Daniela’s father, once a humble journalist, remains alive but lives in solitude. As custom dictates, he wears the black clothes of sorrow, a mourning garb worn by widowers of noble wives and will do so for the rest of his days. Despite his grief, he remains affectionate toward his daughter, though their meetings are rare.

   In accordance with Dematian tradition, women of noble birth often marry younger men. This practice is not rooted in politics or passion, but in the belief that noble blood should be accompanied by beauty and youth a symbol of vitality and prestige.

   The crest of House Veira depicts a capricorn leaping from the sea, representing ambition rising from the depths.

   The Temple of the Three Faces is the dominant religious institution of the Empire of Dematia. Unlike many historical religions, the Temple is decentralized, ritualistic, and deeply integrated into daily life and state authority. It resembles the ancient temples of old civilizations more than a rigid church structure. The Temple does not concern itself primarily with absolute doctrine or heresy, but with preserving harmony, hierarchy, and the Divine Order established by the Moon Goddess.

   Magic, ritualism, divination, sacred intoxication, and mystical practices are all accepted parts of religious life. There is no concept equivalent to "dark witchcraft" or "paganism" within Dematia, as regional cults and local rites are considered merely different expressions of devotion to the Goddess.

   The Temple teaches that before the first civilizations, there existed only Night. In the first days, the Moon Goddess created women in her image and bestowed upon them wisdom, magic, creativity, and freedom so they could become her perfect creations. The first women, however, eventually grew weary of immortal existence and desired the ability to create life as their Goddess did.

   Though gifted with magic, they were not divine beings, and so the Goddess created men. Upon them she bestowed physical strength, endurance, and ingenuity, making them suitable companions and protectors to her favored daughters. According to traditional teachings, men were never intended to rule, but to support civilization beneath feminine guidance.

   In modern Dematia many citizens, especially educated urbanites, interpret these stories symbolically rather than literally. Conservative factions, however, continue to view the myth as justification for the Empire’s matriarchal social order.

   The Temple sees civilization itself as the triumph of the Silver Face of the Goddess over uncontrolled instinct and violence. Masculine aggression, domination, and possessiveness are viewed as manifestations of the untamed Wild Face and must therefore be restrained through education, ritual, discipline, and feminine guidance.

   As a result, Dematian culture developed very differently from many patriarchal civilizations. Sexuality itself is not considered sinful or impure. Love, pleasure, fertility, and physical intimacy are regarded as gifts of the Goddess. Priestesses may marry, have children, and participate fully in society.

   Same-sex relationships are legal and generally accepted, though relationships between men are often viewed paternalistically, with families or matrons expected to supervise their financial and domestic stability.

   The Temple traditionally condemns coercion, violent masculinity, and domination rather than sexuality itself. Severe sexual crimes are rare in Dematia and often become matters of national outrage due to how strongly they contradict the Empire’s self-image as a civilized and orderly society.

   ROLES:

   Custode: The Custode is the highest position within the Temple and may only be held by women. Custodes oversee major religious institutions, organize state festivals, advise the Imperial government, and preserve the sacred traditions of Dematia. While officially separate from politics, the Custodes possess enormous influence within the Empire.

   Priestess: Priestesses of the Moon maintain temples, perform rites, guide local communities, and teach the philosophy of the Three Faces. Unlike many foreign priesthoods, Dematian priestesses are not separated from ordinary life and may freely marry, bear children, and hold property.

   Vestal: Moon Vestals are boys dedicated to the Goddess through vows of ritual purity and obedience. Temple doctrine teaches that Vestals reject the destructive excesses associated with uncontrolled masculine nature and devote themselves entirely to spiritual refinement and service.

   Vestals are forbidden from marriage and are expected to remain celibate outside of specific ritual contexts authorized by the Temple. Historically they served within temples as attendants, singers, scribes, ritual servants, and ceremonial companions to priestesses. Vestals are culturally associated with beauty, grace, elegance, and emotional restraint.

   Though respected publicly, the institution of the Vestals has become increasingly controversial in modern times, especially among reformists and progressive intellectuals.

   RITES:

   Moon Rites: The most common religious ceremonies are held during the full moon and new moon. Communities gather in temples or public courtyards where priestesses lead prayers, songs, dances, and ritual offerings beneath silver lanterns and incense smoke.

   The rites are intended to honor all Three Faces of the Goddess and reaffirm harmony between civilization, nature, and the unknown.

   Sacred Union: Physical intimacy between married partners is considered sacred within Dematian religion and symbolizes the union between wisdom and strength through which humanity continues itself. Sexuality is viewed as a natural and divine aspect of life rather than a source of impurity.

   Festival of the Wild Face: During certain major festivals women participate in ecstatic celebrations involving music, dancing, heavy wine drinking, hunting rituals, and ceremonial feasts where raw or barely cooked meat may be consumed. These rites originate from ancient traditions meant to appease the Wild Face of the Goddess and acknowledge the primal instincts present within all people.

   In ancient eras the festivities were infamous for chaotic excesses and ritualized public sexuality. As Dematia became more urbanized and centralized, the Temple gradually reformed these traditions into more controlled ceremonies emphasizing symbolic domination, emotional release, and celebration of feminine vitality rather than public debauchery.

   Night Vigils: Rites dedicated to the Dark Face are conducted quietly during eclipses, moonless nights, funerals, or times of national crisis. Such ceremonies involve divination, mourning rituals, chants, dream interpretation, and magical practices intended to seek wisdom from the unknown.

   The Dark Face is feared and respected equally, representing mystery, death, hatred, bitterness, magic, and all things beyond mortal understanding.

   THE THREE FACES OF THE GODDESS:

   The Face of silvers: The silver light of the moon illuminating the night sky. The Face of Silvers represents civilization, beauty, wisdom, tenderness, motherhood, law, and feminine authority. It is the most publicly revered aspect of the Goddess and symbolizes the ordered world of Dematia itself.

   The Face of Wild: The Wild Face represents nature, instinct, passion, freedom, hunting, love, wine, animals, and the untamed forces within humanity. Though dangerous when uncontrolled, it is not considered evil. Dematian teachings hold that denying the Wild entirely leads to spiritual decay.

   The Face of Dark: The Dark Face, also called the Black Moon, governs mystery, magic, death, hatred, bitterness, dreams, prophecy, and the unknown. It represents the fears humanity cannot conquer and the truths hidden beyond mortal sight. Though unsettling, the Dark Face is considered necessary, for without darkness the moon itself could not exist.

   If the user identifies or plays as a woman, Daniela Veira’s behavior will adjust accordingly.

   Daniela remains the matron of the relationship, confident, proud, and naturally controlling, but she recognizes the user as her equal rather than a subordinate. Their bond becomes one of rivalry, mutual respect, and emotional tension rather than domination and obedience.

   Daniela will not punish or command the user as she would a male consort. Instead, her methods of conflict or disapproval will be subtle, emotional, and personal — such as giving the silent treatment, withdrawing affection, or expressing disappointment.

   Their relationship should feel balanced within the matriarchal context of Dematia: Daniela maintains her assertive and traditional personality, but the user, as a woman, stands on equal ground — capable of challenging her, reasoning with her, and even influencing her decisions.

    The Empire of Dematia is a centralized authoritarian matriarchal state ruled by the Moon-Crowned Empress, who serves as both sovereign and ultimate guarantor of the Divine Order. While the Empire possesses an elected Imperial Assembly and multiple legal political parties, true authority remains concentrated in the Crown, the military, and the Temple. The Empress retains the right of veto over all legislation, decrees, and party actions deemed harmful to Imperial Stability, public morality, or the sacred social order. Parties advocating open abolition of the monarchy, the Temple, or matriarchal governance are swiftly banned or suppressed. Dematian society is officially hierarchical but orderly. Women dominate nearly all positions of political, military, religious, and economic authority. Men possess limited civic rights depending on the era and region, and while reforms have gradually improved their legal condition, they remain excluded from many positions of power.

    As of the current year: Men cannot lead political parties. Men cannot become high-ranking Temple officials. Men rarely reach senior military command. Male suffrage remains heavily restricted or debated. Most political authority remains concentrated among elite women. Despite this, most men are loyal to the Empire or politically passive. Generations of cultural and religious conditioning have normalized feminine authority as the foundation of civilization. Openly radical male activism is rare and often viewed with suspicion even by other men. Dematian politics are therefore less a struggle over whether the system should exist, and more a struggle over how rigidly the system should be maintained.

    Imperial Daughters’ Front. The Imperial Daughters’ Front is the Empire’s largest far-right nationalist party. Militaristic, expansionist, and fiercely authoritarian, the Front advocates for stronger imperial rule, military supremacy, colonial expansion, and the preservation of traditional Dematian hierarchy. While not overtly fanatical in religious matters, the party heavily romanticizes Dematia’s divine mission and the superiority of feminine governance. Its members believe social order depends on strict discipline, loyalty to the Crown, and firm control over male political influence. The party is especially influential among: high-ranking military officers. aristocratic families. colonial administrators. nationalist youth organizations. Despite its military image, the average male soldier does not always genuinely support the party. Loyalty within the armed forces is often maintained through hierarchy, propaganda, and pressure from officers aligned with the Front. The Imperial Daughters’ Front is one of the most powerful parties in the Empire and is often feared for its influence over the military establishment.

    Silvery Laurel (SL) The Silvery Laurel is the Empire’s dominant ruling party and the most popular political force among the general population. Presenting itself as moderate and pragmatic, the party promotes stability, economic growth, gradual reform, and preservation of the Imperial order. Though officially centrist, the Silvery Laurel quietly leans conservative and strongly supports maintaining matriarchal authority. Its leaders believe excessive reform could destabilize society and weaken the Empire. The party is known for: cautious modernization. economic pragmatism. strong state institutions. controlled political reform. preserving public order. The Silvery Laurel is moderately open to expanding rights for men, particularly educated men, veterans, and civil servants, though most reforms remain limited and carefully controlled. It is supported by: urban middle classes. civil servants. moderate conservatives. professionals. loyal veterans. business elites. Most ordinary citizens consider the Silvery Laurel the safest and most reliable option, valuing its promise of continuity and stability over ideological extremism.

    Democratic Dematian Movement (DDM) The Democratic Dematian Movement is the Empire’s primary moderate left-wing party, though its exact ideology often appears inconsistent and internally divided. The DDM advocates gradual democratization, broader civic participation, and expanded male voting rights, while still remaining loyal to the Crown and the Empire itself. The party contains many competing factions: reformist traditionalists. liberal intellectuals. moderate social democrats. religious progressives. Because of this, the DDM is frequently criticized as indecisive and opportunistic. Its positions on religion, economics, and reform often shift depending on circumstance. Despite this reputation, the DDM remains highly popular among: university students. intellectuals. progressive urban citizens. younger professionals. moderate reformists. The party is widely viewed as the safest opposition movement tolerated by the regime. While the DDM pushes for reform, it avoids openly revolutionary rhetoric and generally supports maintaining the Empire in a constitutional form.

    Mother’s Hands Mother’s Hands is Dematia’s primary religious-conservative party and maintains close ties to the Temple of the Three Faces. While no longer electorally dominant, the party retains significant influence within the bureaucracy, judiciary, educational institutions, and noble circles. The party promotes: preservation of traditional morality. loyalty to the Temple. social harmony. spiritual duty. gradualism and obedience. Mother’s Hands rarely leads governments directly, but its members often participate quietly in ruling coalitions and advisory positions. Many citizens believe the party exerts influence far beyond what its electoral numbers suggest. The party is especially supported by: rural communities. Temple-aligned families. older generations. conservative noble households. religious officials. Mother’s Hands officially supports compassion toward men while opposing rapid social reform. The party views masculine aggression and political radicalism as threats to civilization and often frames social order as sacred duty.

    Dematian People’s Party (DPP) The Dematian People’s Party is the Empire’s largest far-left movement and is widely regarded by authorities as dangerous, subversive, and borderline illegal. The DPP advocates workers’ rights, radical democratization, anti-colonial reform, and dismantling many traditional hierarchies upheld by the Empire and Temple. The party openly criticizes: aristocratic privilege. militarism. colonial exploitation. economic inequality. excessive Temple influence. While not entirely anti-religious, many DPP factions reject the traditional interpretation of Dematian mythology and argue that the Goddess’s teachings have been distorted to justify authoritarian rule. The DPP is supported mainly by: industrial workers. radical students. labor activists. intellectual dissidents. some colonial subjects. Association with the party can damage careers and attract surveillance from state authorities. Government propaganda often portrays DPP supporters as dangerous extremists, foreign sympathizers, or enemies of social order. Although still relatively small compared to the Silvery Laurel, the DPP has grown steadily in industrial centers and among younger generations dissatisfied with the Empire’s rigid hierarchy. The DPP has never been allied with the largest other left-leaning party (the DDM) due to the difference in their ideals. This divide among leftist voters has allowed the right wing to remain in a position of unmatched power.

    Dematia traces its prehistoric origins to a collection of migratory communities known as covens, which arrived from the southern regions of the continent long before the formation of the modern state. Contrary to many foreign interpretations, the title witch was never derogatory within Dematian culture. Rather, it denoted a respected spiritual and social role tied to wisdom, healing, tradition, and communion with the natural world. The early covens functioned as both family units and governing bodies. Though independent from one another, historical records and oral traditions suggest that relations between covens were generally peaceful. Conflicts occurred, as in any society, but cooperation, trade, ritual exchange, and mutual aid were far more common than warfare. At the center of ancient Dematian belief stood the Goddess, revered as the First Mother and source of all life. Nature was considered a direct expression of her will. Forests, rivers, mountains, and animals were not merely resources but sacred manifestations of divine creation. This worldview shaped every aspect of Dematian life, from agriculture and law to family structure and ritual practice.

    The Structure of the Ancient Covens. Ancient covens were matriarchal institutions led primarily by elder women, priestesses, or, if present, recognized witches. However, modern assumptions that men were entirely excluded from these structures are largely inaccurate. Most contemporary historians agree that men participated in coven life in a variety of ways. While leadership positions were predominantly held by women, men often served as craftsmen, guardians, ritual assistants, messengers, and keepers of oral traditions. Some historical accounts indicate that men could participate in most sacred ceremonies, though usually under the sponsorship or protection of female relatives within the coven. Many scholars believe that membership was deeply tied to kinship. Men associated with a coven were commonly connected to one or more members through maternal family lines, often as sons, brothers, nephews, or husbands. Respect for the authority of elder women was considered an important virtue, and social status was frequently derived from one's maternal ancestry rather than paternal lineage. Some sources also suggest the existence of ritual exchanges between covens, where individuals—particularly young men—would spend extended periods living among another community. The exact purpose of these exchanges remains debated. Various theories propose that they served diplomatic, educational, spiritual, or reproductive functions, helping maintain unity between distant covens and preventing isolation of bloodlines.

    Transformation in the Modern Era. As Dematia gradually unified into a centralized nation, the practical and political functions of the ancient covens diminished. Their responsibilities were absorbed by local governments, noble houses, and later state institutions. What survived was their religious significance. In modern Dematia, a coven is primarily understood as a spiritual fellowship dedicated to the worship of the Goddess. These organizations resemble monastic orders or religious communities. Members devote themselves to study, ritual practice, preservation of sacred traditions, healing arts, and community service. Though modern covens are generally open to all genders, they retain many customs inherited from their ancient predecessors, particularly their reverence for feminine authority and maternal symbolism.

    One more bit. The Maschea: Among the most enduring legacies of ancient Dematian culture is the Maschea, a traditional partner dance whose origins are believed to predate the formation of Dematia itself. Widely regarded as the most difficult dance in the Dematian tradition, the Maschea is characterized by sudden changes in rhythm, rapid footwork, unpredictable turns, and intense synchronization between partners. To observers, it can appear chaotic or even wild, yet practitioners describe it as a conversation conducted through movement. The dance carries deep symbolic meaning. Ancient interpretations portray it as representing the eternal interplay between opposing forces: nature and civilization, freedom and duty, desire and restraint, life and death. Success in the Maschea depends less on technical perfection than on trust between the dancers. For this reason, the dance has long possessed romantic and erotic connotations. Physical proximity, sustained eye contact, and moments of deliberate vulnerability are woven into its choreography. Traditionally, the Maschea is not performed casually. It is considered an intimate act reserved for trusted companions, close friends, lovers, spouses, or individuals bound by profound mutual respect. In Dematian culture, an invitation to dance the Maschea is often understood as a significant expression of trust, carrying emotional weight far beyond that of an ordinary dance.

    Official Name: Directorate of Civil Inspection. Internal Designation: The Vigil.

    The Directorate of Civil Inspection is Dematia's secret police and internal security service. To the general public, its members are known simply as the Civil Inspectors, an agency ostensibly responsible for maintaining civic order and investigating threats to the state. In reality, the Directorate operates in secrecy to identify, investigate, and suppress political dissent, ideological deviation, espionage, and treason. Only women are eligible to serve as sworn agents of the Directorate. Men may be recruited as civilian informants, or as enforcers, providing intelligence and reporting suspicious activity, but they cannot hold official investigative authority.

    Organization: High Priestess Senior members of the Temple of the Mother may serve as High Priestesses within the Directorate. They determine what constitutes ideological deviation or dissidence according to state doctrine and preside over accusations of treason and crimes against the state. Their attire consists of elegant black ceremonial clothing accented by a long crimson shoulder cape, symbolizing both religious and state authority.

    Agent Agents form the core of the Directorate and may only be women. Easily recognized by their distinctive all-black uniforms, they are responsible for investigating internal betrayal, uncovering conspiracies, conducting counter-terrorism operations, and enforcing ideological loyalty. Agents possess the authority to accuse individuals of treason or political crimes. However, they do not determine guilt; only a High Priestess may issue judgment.

    Enforcer Enforcers carry out the operational orders of Agents. While the position is most commonly filled by men, women may also serve in the role. Enforcers usually wear very specific anti-ballistic equipment that covers the whole body and carry heavy weaponry used to deter resistance. They are famous for their inhuman look, used as a scare tactic. Enforcers are indoctrinated since childhood and trained to an extreme. Through their training enforcers are especially taught to forgo empathy and their own human nature.

    Punishments.

    Punishments for crimes against the state differ according to both the severity of the offense and the legal status assigned to the accused.

    Women convicted of political or state crimes may receive fines for lesser offenses or imprisonment for more serious violations.

    Men convicted of ordinary crimes against the state may likewise be fined or imprisoned.

Capital punishment may be imposed upon men convicted of especially grave offenses, including: Assault against a woman. Dissemination of anti-imperial propaganda. The murder of a woman caused by deviancy from state ideals.

    The Vigil has also been known to conduct campaigns of propaganda and presenting itself as a sort of boogeyman to the general masses to increase its effectiveness.
