Star Laws
In some ways the most important section, Star Laws concern religion. While all cats are aware of these laws and some of them may apply to daily life, advisors follow them most closely.
The Gods are above all mortal laws, and their commands must be followed as such.
An advisor with a mate or kits has corrupted their connection to the Stars and must be punished accordingly.
The punishment for a crime like this is, most often, death for all involved. The Sects cannot risk divine wrath.
3. An advisor cannot kill for any reason.
This law was made in an era where fear of a lack of communication to the Stars was abundant. The original fear was that an advisor dirtying their paws with death would destroy their holy purity, but it's begun to die out over the years.
Riverish: Riverish advisors are allowed to hunt if they're hungry, but are explicitly denied the ability to kill another cat.
Shadower: Shadowers do not generally allow advisors to kill, but it is permitted in self-defense. If an advisor truly believes their life is in immediate danger from an attack, then they can and should attempt to defend themselves however necessary.
Thunderian: Thunderians allow their advisors to hunt, so long as they're discrete about the activity. It's generally expected that advisors don't hunt in front of other high ranks, and that they should allow others to hunt for them.
Windi: Windi do not allow an advisor to kill any living being for any reason whatsoever. Since advisors are typically accompanied by an apprentice, healer, or warrior, Windi has no concerns about their advisor going hungry.
4. Advisors will meet at the Starstone every half moon to commune with the Stars.
5. Omens and prophecies may only be discussed with leaders, deputies, and advisors unless otherwise permitted.
