Charter of the Arkhive Æternal

Immutables
-Every odd round, the Arkhive will hold a Hexenniel Conference to select a Patron, determined by the Points System (see below).
-There are two tiers of Membership: Local Members (for residents of Sansar) and Visiting Members (for everyone else).
-Should a Visiting Member be awarded Patronage OR complete and maintain a Hive (5-action GP), they will permanently be considered Local, so long as they retain Membership.
-Members' holdings shall be held as inviolable to the Library, subject to no interference.
-The Arkhive's holdings shall be held as inviolable to Members, subject to no interference.
-The Arkhive shall devote half of its capacity in service of its Patron (2 actions on odd round, 3 on evens).
-The Arkhive cannot use Military actions nor maintain a standing army (but we're ignoring the unit we start with because it'd be a hassle to deal with--we rebuke the fiction and substitute our own!).
-The Arkhive is a place of refuge; anyone swearing themselves to scholarship is welcome in its walls, regardless of their past.
-The Arkhive is subject always to public oversight; it will never take a secret action
-The Arkhive reserves all E5s and D5s that it may better distribute Trade Routes and Embassies, as well as its first F5 and F10. Additionally, should the Arkhive ever do that thing to get a new civ type and another action what's that called again I forgot, it reserves that one action as well--feel free to ask in advance about it if worried.


Mutables
-Research produced or acquired by the Arkhive (including techs) is to be freely disseminated to all Members without discrimination.
-Physical holdings (including artifacts) are to be loaned out for three years at a time to Local Members.
-Members of the Arkhive hold joint responsibility for recovering overdue and stolen items and holdings (including TPs and Supports*)
-Failure to return a borrowed item by its due date incurs a fine of two (2) Treasure. A further borrowing period overdue will result in revocation of Membership and extraction of reparations as determined appropriate by all remaining Members and the Librarians.
-At their sole discretion, the Queen can forgive fines and pardon misstep.
-The Arkhive accepts all donations.
-Trade Routes will be distributed freely among Members, preferencing Local Members and those offering more generous donations (points system).
-Cultural Exchanges will be distributed freely among Members, preferencing Local Members and those offering more generous donations (points system).
-At each Hexenniel Conference, the current Patron and the Queen may each submit a proposal to add, remove, or alter a single mutable point of this charter.
-Proposals to change the Charter are only confirmed by a 2/3rds majority of voting Local Members.-No Patron may require the Arkhive to Adopt Faith.

News and Rumors

The Freedom From Religion Amendment FAILS

The Fair Labor Practices Amendment PASSES

The long and short of it is Holding territory on Sansar makes you "Local"

Beedom of Information Act:

Beerocracy can be slow, but at times it is swift. Terms for the treaty are made available instantaneously upon request, almost like Lumaeus had kinda meant to be public and just forgot.

Ophion Stewardship Treaty

  1. -Agreement: GLO delivers 8 to ARK at the Elven Conclave.
    -GLO and BCC hold 8 as inviolable except in any way they both agree for the duration of this treaty.
    -If at the end of 4 rounds (end of round 8) GLO has met The Conditions, the territory will be returned to them or their designated representative at the fourth Hexenniel.
    -If GLO has not met The Conditions, the region will go to BBC or their designated representative at the fourth Hexenniel.
    -If it is unclear or debatable whether GLO has met the conditions above, a panel of representatives selected by the governments of [TBD with the Conditions] will privately decide if they have. Their decision will be considered binding. -The territory will be treated as territory of both BCC and GLO by the Arkhive for the duration of this treaty.
    -If BCC and GLO cannot agree on the terms of The Conditions by the end of the Third Hexenniel (Round 5), the territory will be considered by the Arkhive to be the territory of ELD and will be given to ELD by ARK as soon as ELD can accommodate.

Conditions

-GLO will provide significant military aid to BCC within the near-future for the purpose of replacing, punishing, or otherwise combating one or more Elect governments which engage in, enable, or encourage a significant level of coercive labor practices and/or the ownership of sophonts.
-GLO will acquire a non-coerced labor source by which region 8's need for labor can be satisfied, through non-coercive means.
-GLO will undertake the following reforms: {?(the last one is dependent on some talk with rocket about how the Moonmen economy and Zelfs work)}

The Freedom From Religion Amendment FAILS

The Fair Labor Practices Amendment PASSES

The long and short of it is Holding territory on Sansar makes you "Local"

Beedom of Information Act:

Beerocracy can be slow, but at times it is swift. Terms for the treaty are made available instantaneously upon request, almost like Lumaeus had kinda meant to be public and just forgot.

Ophion Stewardship Treaty

  1. -Agreement: GLO delivers 8 to ARK at the Elven Conclave.
    -GLO and BCC hold 8 as inviolable except in any way they both agree for the duration of this treaty.
    -If at the end of 4 rounds (end of round 8) GLO has met The Conditions, the territory will be returned to them or their designated representative at the fourth Hexenniel.
    -If GLO has not met The Conditions, the region will go to BBC or their designated representative at the fourth Hexenniel.
    -If it is unclear or debatable whether GLO has met the conditions above, a panel of representatives selected by the governments of [TBD with the Conditions] will privately decide if they have. Their decision will be considered binding. -The territory will be treated as territory of both BCC and GLO by the Arkhive for the duration of this treaty.
    -If BCC and GLO cannot agree on the terms of The Conditions by the end of the Third Hexenniel (Round 5), the territory will be considered by the Arkhive to be the territory of ELD and will be given to ELD by ARK as soon as ELD can accommodate.

Conditions

-GLO will provide significant military aid to BCC within the near-future for the purpose of replacing, punishing, or otherwise combating one or more Elect governments which engage in, enable, or encourage a significant level of coercive labor practices and/or the ownership of sophonts.
-GLO will acquire a non-coerced labor source by which region 8's need for labor can be satisfied, through non-coercive means.
-GLO will undertake the following reforms: {?(the last one is dependent on some talk with rocket about how the Moonmen economy and Zelfs work)}

Charter of the Arkhive Æternal

-There are two tiers of Membership: Local Members (for residents of Sansar) and Visiting Members (for everyone else).

-The Arkhive shall devote half of its capacity in service of its Patron (2 actions on odd round, 3 on evens).
-The Arkhive cannot use Military actions nor maintain a standing army (but we're ignoring the unit we start with because it'd be a hassle to deal with--we rebuke the fiction and substitute our own!).
-The Arkhive is a place of refuge; anyone swearing themselves to scholarship is welcome in its walls, regardless of their past.
-The Arkhive is subject always to public oversight; it will never take a secret action
-The Arkhive reserves all E5s and D5s that it may better distribute Trade Routes and Embassies, as well as its first F5 and F10. Additionally, should the Arkhive ever do that thing to get a new civ type and another action what's that called again I forgot, it reserves that one action as well--feel free to ask in advance about it if worried.

-The Arkhive accepts all donations.
-Trade Routes will be distributed freely among Members, preferencing Local Members and those offering more generous donations (points system).

The Freedom From Religion Amendment FAILS

The Fair Labor Practices Amendment PASSES

The long and short of it is Holding territory on Sansar makes you "Local"

Beedom of Information Act:

Beerocracy can be slow, but at times it is swift. Terms for the treaty are made available instantaneously upon request, almost like Lumaeus had kinda meant to be public and just forgot.

Ophion Stewardship Treaty

  1. -Agreement: GLO delivers 8 to ARK at the Elven Conclave.
    -GLO and BCC hold 8 as inviolable except in any way they both agree for the duration of this treaty.
    -If at the end of 4 rounds (end of round 8) GLO has met The Conditions, the territory will be returned to them or their designated representative at the fourth Hexenniel.
    -If GLO has not met The Conditions, the region will go to BBC or their designated representative at the fourth Hexenniel.
    -If it is unclear or debatable whether GLO has met the conditions above, a panel of representatives selected by the governments of [TBD with the Conditions] will privately decide if they have. Their decision will be considered binding. -The territory will be treated as territory of both BCC and GLO by the Arkhive for the duration of this treaty.
    -If BCC and GLO cannot agree on the terms of The Conditions by the end of the Third Hexenniel (Round 5), the territory will be considered by the Arkhive to be the territory of ELD and will be given to ELD by ARK as soon as ELD can accommodate.

Conditions

-GLO will provide significant military aid to BCC within the near-future for the purpose of replacing, punishing, or otherwise combating one or more Elect governments which engage in, enable, or encourage a significant level of coercive labor practices and/or the ownership of sophonts.
-GLO will acquire a non-coerced labor source by which region 8's need for labor can be satisfied, through non-coercive means.
-GLO will undertake the following reforms: {?(the last one is dependent on some talk with rocket about how the Moonmen economy and Zelfs work)}

Charter of the Arkhive Æternal

Immutables
-Every odd round, the Arkhive will hold a Hexenniel Conference to select a Patron, determined by the Points System (see below).
-There are two tiers of Membership: Local Members (for residents of Sansar) and Visiting Members (for everyone else).
-Should a Visiting Member be awarded Patronage OR complete and maintain a Hive (5-action GP), they will permanently be considered Local, so long as they retain Membership.
-Members' holdings shall be held as inviolable to the Library, subject to no interference.
-The Arkhive's holdings shall be held as inviolable to Members, subject to no interference.
-The Arkhive shall devote half of its capacity in service of its Patron (2 actions on odd round, 3 on evens).
-The Arkhive cannot use Military actions nor maintain a standing army (but we're ignoring the unit we start with because it'd be a hassle to deal with--we rebuke the fiction and substitute our own!).
-The Arkhive is a place of refuge; anyone swearing themselves to scholarship is welcome in its walls, regardless of their past.
-The Arkhive is subject always to public oversight; it will never take a secret action
-The Arkhive reserves all E5s and D5s that it may better distribute Trade Routes and Embassies, as well as its first F5 and F10. Additionally, should the Arkhive ever do that thing to get a new civ type and another action what's that called again I forgot, it reserves that one action as well--feel free to ask in advance about it if worried.


Mutables
-Research produced or acquired by the Arkhive (including techs) is to be freely disseminated to all Members without discrimination.
-Physical holdings (including artifacts) are to be loaned out for three years at a time to Local Members.
-Members of the Arkhive hold joint responsibility for recovering overdue and stolen items and holdings (including TPs and Supports*)
-Failure to return a borrowed item by its due date incurs a fine of two (2) Treasure. A further borrowing period overdue will result in revocation of Membership and extraction of reparations as determined appropriate by all remaining Members and the Librarians.
-At their sole discretion, the Queen can forgive fines and pardon misstep.
-The Arkhive accepts all donations.
-Trade Routes will be distributed freely among Members, preferencing Local Members and those offering more generous donations (points system).
-Cultural Exchanges will be distributed freely among Members, preferencing Local Members and those offering more generous donations (points system).
-At each Hexenniel Conference, the current Patron and the Queen may each submit a proposal to add, remove, or alter a single mutable point of this charter.
-Proposals to change the Charter are only confirmed by a 2/3rds majority of voting Local Members.-No Patron may require the Arkhive to Adopt Faith.

News and Rumors

The Freedom From Religion Amendment FAILS

The Fair Labor Practices Amendment PASSES

The long and short of it is Holding territory on Sansar makes you "Local"

Beedom of Information Act:

Beerocracy can be slow, but at times it is swift. Terms for the treaty are made available instantaneously upon request, almost like Lumaeus had kinda meant to be public and just forgot.

Ophion Stewardship Treaty

  1. -Agreement: GLO delivers 8 to ARK at the Elven Conclave.
    -GLO and BCC hold 8 as inviolable except in any way they both agree for the duration of this treaty.
    -If at the end of 4 rounds (end of round 8) GLO has met The Conditions, the territory will be returned to them or their designated representative at the fourth Hexenniel.
    -If GLO has not met The Conditions, the region will go to BBC or their designated representative at the fourth Hexenniel.
    -If it is unclear or debatable whether GLO has met the conditions above, a panel of representatives selected by the governments of [TBD with the Conditions] will privately decide if they have. Their decision will be considered binding. -The territory will be treated as territory of both BCC and GLO by the Arkhive for the duration of this treaty.
    -If BCC and GLO cannot agree on the terms of The Conditions by the end of the Third Hexenniel (Round 5), the territory will be considered by the Arkhive to be the territory of ELD and will be given to ELD by ARK as soon as ELD can accommodate.

Conditions

-GLO will provide significant military aid to BCC within the near-future for the purpose of replacing, punishing, or otherwise combating one or more Elect governments which engage in, enable, or encourage a significant level of coercive labor practices and/or the ownership of sophonts.
-GLO will acquire a non-coerced labor source by which region 8's need for labor can be satisfied, through non-coercive means.
-GLO will undertake the following reforms: {?(the last one is dependent on some talk with rocket about how the Moonmen economy and Zelfs work)}

Charter of the Arkhive Æternal

Immutables
-Every odd round, the Arkhive will hold a Hexenniel Conference to select a Patron, determined by the Points System (see below).
-There are two tiers of Membership: Local Members (for residents of Sansar) and Visiting Members (for everyone else).
-Should a Visiting Member be awarded Patronage OR complete and maintain a Hive (5-action GP), they will permanently be considered Local, so long as they retain Membership.
-Members' holdings shall be held as inviolable to the Library, subject to no interference.
-The Arkhive's holdings shall be held as inviolable to Members, subject to no interference.
-The Arkhive shall devote half of its capacity in service of its Patron (2 actions on odd round, 3 on evens).
-The Arkhive cannot use Military actions nor maintain a standing army (but we're ignoring the unit we start with because it'd be a hassle to deal with--we rebuke the fiction and substitute our own!).
-The Arkhive is a place of refuge; anyone swearing themselves to scholarship is welcome in its walls, regardless of their past.
-The Arkhive is subject always to public oversight; it will never take a secret action
-The Arkhive reserves all E5s and D5s that it may better distribute Trade Routes and Embassies, as well as its first F5 and F10. Additionally, should the Arkhive ever do that thing to get a new civ type and another action what's that called again I forgot, it reserves that one action as well--feel free to ask in advance about it if worried.


Mutables
-Research produced or acquired by the Arkhive (including techs) is to be freely disseminated to all Members without discrimination.
-Physical holdings (including artifacts) are to be loaned out for three years at a time to Local Members.
-Members of the Arkhive hold joint responsibility for recovering overdue and stolen items and holdings (including TPs and Supports*)
-Failure to return a borrowed item by its due date incurs a fine of two (2) Treasure. A further borrowing period overdue will result in revocation of Membership and extraction of reparations as determined appropriate by all remaining Members and the Librarians.
-At their sole discretion, the Queen can forgive fines and pardon misstep.
-The Arkhive accepts all donations.
-Trade Routes will be distributed freely among Members, preferencing Local Members and those offering more generous donations (points system).
-Cultural Exchanges will be distributed freely among Members, preferencing Local Members and those offering more generous donations (points system).
-At each Hexenniel Conference, the current Patron and the Queen may each submit a proposal to add, remove, or alter a single mutable point of this charter.
-Proposals to change the Charter are only confirmed by a 2/3rds majority of voting Local Members.-No Patron may require the Arkhive to Adopt Faith.
