The rules written on this stone in the blood of our greatest kills and victims are to be followed by the nation of Concorde. If broken, anyone may kill you.
Only the assassins are allowed to claim the throne. To keep the balance there must be two Assassins on the throne at all times. One will be of each party. They shall always remain separate, meaning neither of the Crown Assassins may combine families.
------------------------------
Crown Assassins
Two rulers will take the throne and rule over the Nation of the Assassins.
Both parties must remain separate and will rule alongside their own Court of followers.
They will have the utmost respect.
The Kingston's
-The Intellects
-Responsible for making plans and alliances
-Keep the country moving forward
The Fortier's
-The Unassailables
-Responsible for leading wars
-Keep the country under control
The Royal Assassins
-Families of the Crowns
-Play a supporting role for their respective rulers
-Help negotiate any arguments or fights between the Crowns
-Alone, they are treated with the same respect as does a Crown
-When accompanied with Crown, the Crown will receive the utmost respect
Court of Assassins
-Support the Crowns in their decisions
-Act as advisers
-Composed of those who had helped and played a significant role in the war on the side of the Assassins
-Each Crown will choose twenty families to place on the Court
-The chosen Court members and their extended families are considered a part of the Court, though extended families are a lower rank than those of the original Court
-Court members must specialize in the specific traits of their respective Crown Assassin
-Alone, they will be treated with the same respect as a Royal Assassin when accompanied with a Crown
-When accompanied with Royal Assassin, the Royals will have the upmost respect
------------------------------
If one of these ranks were killed, the killer may take the victim's former rank. After all, if you killed them, you are a better Assassin than the one killed. You deserve the rank, even if your victim is a Crown.
The only exception to the rule is if this takes place during a time of war. If anyone on the offensive side kills either a Court member or Royal, they will be replaced by their own family members. If a Crown was killed, they may be replaced by the next Royal in line, or the other Crown may take emergency control over the throne, making them the sole Crown Assassin.
As said before, all rules must be followed or anyone holds the right to kill you.
The Crowns may choose the punishment they deem necessary for any other crimes.
