The Imperial Codex

The sovereign laws, decrees, and territorial atlas of The Greater Einhorn Empire.

I. Imperial Law & Order

Succession & Marriage

  • Imperial Succession: Gender-neutral elective monarchy. The next Emperor/Empress is chosen by a majority vote of the 11 Prince-Electors upon the reigning monarch's death.
  • Noble Succession: Absolute primogeniture. The eldest child inherits the family titles and lands, regardless of gender.
  • Marriage Equality: Same-sex marriage is fully legal and officially recognized by the Empire and the Einhorn Temple.

Crime & Punishment

  • Capital Punishment: Death by hanging for commoners. Death by beheading for nobles (granted as a "cleaner" death out of respect for their bloodline).
  • High Treason: Punishable by death and the total stripping of the family's lands and titles.
  • Kinslaying: The most reviled crime in the Empire. Punishable by excommunication from the Temple and immediate execution.
  • Right of High Justice: Only Prince-Electors and the Emperor have the legal authority to sentence a man to death. Lower lords can only issue fines or imprisonment.

Military, Trade & Temple

  • Age of Conscription: The legal age to enlist in the Imperial Vanguard or provincial armies is 16 years old.
  • Stolen Valor: A noble abandoning their post or serving under a false commoner identity is considered a minor treason, punishable by massive fines or exile.
  • Temple Sanctuary: Any criminal who crosses the threshold of a recognized Einhorn Temple cannot be arrested by the Golden Guard without the High Priest's direct permission.
