LAWS OF slaves
IT IS THE SOLE MISSION OF ALL "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" slaves TO PLEASE, PLEASURE, OBEY AND SERVE THE "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" MASTERS AND MISTRESSES. Failure to do so is a Capital Offense. slaves are slaves and male slaves will be treated like female slaves and subject to the same laws as female slaves unless otherwise stated. In the absence of any "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free in the room, slaves will report to the "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" FG/Trainer/SG, who will be in charge of the slaves when a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free is not present. During these times when a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free is not present, slaves are to follow all directions and commands of the FG/Trainer/SG as if they were a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free. - CO
New slave candidates must successfully complete a 30 day probationary period, complete a project on "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"Laws and write an acceptable 500 word essay on why they wish to join "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"and have a personal interview with the Free and or Ubara before being accepted as a slave in . "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"Candidates will also have their official slave papers completed during this 30 day period. Perfection of Service and Submission is the goal, mere excellence will be tolerated.
For the purposes of this section Free Candidates are not considered to be " "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"Masters".
1) City slaves are the property of the Masters and FW of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" and are a valuable asset to the city. slaves are considered property, on the same level as animals. Their owner may do anything they wish to them without repercussion. Any Free Person that finds offense with another's slave may punish that slave at will with advance approval by the slave’s owner (Ubara in the case of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" city slaves, and or if an owner is unreachable within the 48 hrs of the offense). The owner is to be immediately notified. City slaves must wear the city collar and brands at all times. Failure to not have the collar on is a capital offense. CO
Answer 1: As slaves it is necessary to be held accountable in all things; whether they are words, actions, presentation or punishment. However, unbiased or unapproved treatment of said slaves is still viable to disciplinary action from their Owners. A slave must respect their station at all times, and display appropriate identification marks.
2) slave collaring process - All unowned slaves determined to be a potential "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"candidate are stripped naked after entering and caged for three days. Candidates will be collared with a city collar (by a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"Free citizen), after the three day waiting period, and after their interview, background check and any other assigned projects have been completed. slaves will also receive or purchase the white armband to wear during the probationary period to signify they are in training (http://www.imvu.com/shop/product.php?products_id=3657899) as well as a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" camisk (http://www.imvu.com/shop/product.php?products_id=4735312) and on probation. slaves will be granted forum access at the time they are collared. slaves may not engage in any sexual activity during these three days. During the three days, slaves will be given a copy of the "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" laws to read and will be told about the 10 minute rule and how they are not to travel.
Newly collared slave candidates must successfully complete a 30 day probationary period that includes completing the laws project, writing an acceptable 500 word essay on why they wish to join "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"and successfully passing a 20 question slave test. Additionally, slave papers on the slave will be completed during this time. The 30 day period begins on the date the slave enters the forum. The slave will be restricted from any sexual activity for the first ten days of the probationary period (13 days in total). The total probationary period, including the initial three days is 33 days.
Once the slave passes the exam and all projects are completed, a ceremony/initiation will be held to officially make them a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" slave, at which time the slave will be asked to change their name to “_______OasisScimitars”. The slave will be whipped and branded at this ceremony and the probationary white armband removed.
"Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" law project - by the 14th day after becoming a slave candidate, all new slaves must read and study all the laws and write a 1-2 sentence response for each law as to what that law means to them and post to their personal thread.
Answer 2: This is probably the most thorough single law I have read. It includes many parts and is solely dedicated to outlaying the expectations of potential slaves in the Oasis. The various steps and projects required adequately determine whether a person has the potential and ability to be a slave in the Oasis. This also denotes a certain amount of time that needs to be allocated to the Oasis.
3) Within 10 minutes of coming online, ALL slaves are required to report to the main "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" room prepared for service. slaves are required to spend the majority of their time in "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" as they are part of the family and their participation is required. slaves are never permitted to be in "DND" or any form thereof when online. When online, a slave's time is to be spent in "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" and slaves are not permitted to chat elsewhere unless it’s to a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" family member and then only in "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" rooms or private. slaves are to position themselves at the slave pillows after greeting or beside their Owner or another "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free if asked to do so. slaves are not to sit beside non-"Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free unless told to by a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free - The slave must have a presence (even if AFK) in the main room even if a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Master or Mistress calls them private. In those cases when called private, a slave needs to post an "AFK" or "BRB" sign and move to a block. CO
Answer 3: A slave of the Oasis is expected to be present in its city. Of course depending on timing and role playing situations I can understand when a slave can be online but not in the main hall. Of course I do not apply this rule to any friends or people I know beyond the gorean role play. My status as a slave to the Oasis will not hinder me in speaking with others I know beyond gor. I am sure this is understand by everyone within the Oasis.
4) When a slave needs to leave the room temporarily (due to a real life situation of 15 minutes or less) and plans to leave her character in the room afk… she needs to do the following; Ask the Free if you may be excused due to (real life work, call, children, etc)… use the ( ) to designate OOC, then wait until they say you may and then thank them and go AFK (use an "AFK" or "BRB" sign) and then move to a block. You are not to just say afk or brb… call or must go for a few, etc. It shows respect and position or place to ask first…. When you return…say May this slut return if it please the Free? And then slip back in and thank them. This is one of the few instances where OOC can be used. If a slave needs to be AFK or BRB longer than 15 minutes she begs to be dismissed from the room ....... then closes the room and exits IMVU or indicates in her IMVU status screen that she is away. Do not stay in the room. If a slave goes AFK and is gone longer than 15 minutes, The Free may boot her/him from the room. This is one of the few instances where OOC can be used. If a slave has to exit IMMEDIATELY due to a RL situation, they are to just exit saying nothing, and then explain upon their return. Do not stay in the room.
If a slave crashes and comes back within 15 minutes, she is simply to say ("girl crashed, may she return please"). If she is gone longer than 15 minutes or does not return, she needs to send a message to the Free who were in the room explaining that she crashed and why she did not return.
Answer 4: This rule is put in place to not allow avatar parking or slave inattentiveness. Having a general respect for the role playing is also implied. However I believe emergency situations or sudden unexpected disappearances should be allowed with a simple “brb”. Phone calls or issues about the house or home sometimes don’t have time to wait for someone to type out and wait for responses online. However these circumstances are rare, and should not be a common occurance.
http://www.imvu.com/shop/product.php?products_id=169980585) Free Persons should respect the collar/armband designations of a slave and put no demands on a slave that are not customary under that collar. Owners my Restrict thier own Personal slave but in doing so they are Restrciting themselves the use of the city slaves. all slaves that are Personal must wear the band saying Restricted Ubara will determine if a city slave is restricted. City slaves are the Use of the Free of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" and to be offered to the use of any Gorean. Only the "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free can make such offers and aproove a outsider to use a city slave. ("Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" is known to have pleasure slaves). If a slave that is restricted is asked for a fur it is the owner who decides if He/She will allow the restricted girl to fur at the time of asking.
Answer 5: This is a law that directs how a Free may use a slave in correlation to their status and position within the hierarchy and city of Oasis. Depending on their identifications they may be used sexually at will or with permission.
6) slaves must follow any command issues by any "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"Free (as long as it does not break any "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Laws), at any time or suffer the consequences. Failure to do so is a capital offense. slaves are to obey the command of any non-"Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Master or Mistress, (as long as it does not break any "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Law or include acts of a sexual or suggestive nature without express permission from a "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Master or Mistress). CO
Answer 6: A slave is to act according to his or her station. They are at the disposal of the Oasis Free unless in direct violation of laws or and Ill amend the law slightly, Terms of Service with Imvu. Non Oasis Free must respect the status of a slave, whether restricted or not.
7) slaves possess nothing not given to them by their owner, including their name. What is given can be taken away. If a slave is entrusted to carry a name for an owner, or silks or jewelry, remember that these can be removed as easily as they were given. CO
Any "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free (non-candidate), may use any slave at any time for any purpose.
Answer 7: This law holds true to gorean ideals as a slave owns nothing for they are property themselves.
Not sure what happened to law 8. It is not on the forum.
9) slaves are generally required to spend 100% of their online time in "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" and still need to report to "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"room within 10 minutes of coming online but may travel as stated herein. slaves who have been in for 90 days and are in good standing may travel solo outside of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"if there are no "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free online. slaves may not travel during their first 90 days. However, they must receive a general approval to travel prior to traveling (from their owner if a personal slave, or Ubara if a city slave); may only travel to safe zones or pre-approved rooms (to be posted); must return immediately to "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" (if not already in room with "BRB" sign), should any "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"Free come online while slave is traveling; slave must post a full log of their travel within one hour of the visit; and finally, any slave captured while traveling, will not be sought after as they should know how to escape a room. Additionally, slaves may NOT travel at all during their probation period. CO
Answer 9: A set of regulations and time periods designed to emphasize the importance of the Oasis to role playing above other gorean rooms. A slave also must take full responsibility for their own safety during travel when such actions become available.
10) slaves are not to speak of the business of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" to any outside visitor unless under express permission from a Free and doing so is a capital offense. slaves are never to visit the camps of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" enemies (those on blocked and banned list). CO
Answer 10: This is fairly straightforward as a slave of the Oasis, it’s expected to progress the role play of the Oasis, not hinder or ruin it by interacting with designated enemies. As a Free I remember always being out of the loop on specific knowledge concerning the Oasis, so I know that it was effectively enforced.
11) All Free persons are to be addressed as Master or Mistress, Jarl/Ubar/Ubara unless given specific permission by Free to use another title of their choosing. NEVER call or refer to a Free by their name – to do so is very disrespectful. If the sex of the Free person cannot be determined from the name, Master is to be used until the gender is clarified. Serve Every Master or Mistress as if your well being depends on being pleasing.......it does. While a Freeperson may not always be right, they are, by definition, never WRONG. Slaves always have the last word in any disagreement. The words "Yes, Master"... the First Girl is to be called "mistress" with a small "m" OR "First Girl".... anytime any of the sluts address her, including when Free are in the room. The sluts are not to call her "sister", FG, or by her name..... This is highly supported in the books and is very helpful to the sluts who were struggling with what to call her sometimes.
Answer 11: A law that demands slave etiquette and to remember their stations. All Free are to be addressed in an appropriate manner as well as the first girl. I will admit, its inherent in a slave to always serve as best as possible, but Ice has a certain personality and a way of composing himself during a serve or action for a Free, he won’t always be pleasing, he will act as the mood dictates of the room. For example, an uncomfortable Master suddenly becomes thirsty due to awkward conversational topics. I won’t write a flowery long serve, my serve will be accomplished with haste in both timing and role play.
12) slaves speak in the 3rd person and do not EVER use the first person pronoun in public rooms. There is no "I" "me" or "mine" in a slave’s vocabulary. In addition slaves are not permitted to use abbreviations like "brb", "ty", "yw", "gtg", "lol", "bc" etc.... spell it out. Only exception is the use of my when referring to a slaves owner.
13) City slaves may be bred at any time and may be confined to breeding area during fertile periods if requested by any Master. Babies carried and born by slaves may be sold off.
Answer 13: Potential children born by slaves are property of that slave’s owner. Since Ice is a male slave, he won’t have to be concerned with being fertile, as a male he does not suffer such cycles. However he may be bred with other slaves for the pursuit of potential exotics, or breeding lines.
14) slaves must post their personal fertility information (ovulation days) to the forum and wear the Fertile anklet during their fertile period. In addition, slaves are to be administered slave wine once each month (by their Owner if owned individually and by the "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"Physician if owned by the City), as a form of contraception until the Free decide they are to be bred. In the absence of the Physician, the Ubara may administer the slave wine. CO
http://www.imvu.com/shop/product.php?products_id=4021338 (fertility ankle bracelet)
Answer 14: This law generally doesn’t apply to Ice, being a male slave. However I am sure some understanding is necessary so he can be aware of the female slaves situations.
15) slaves understand they are property and may be bought, sold, traded or loaned. Jealousy and Possessiveness are punishable offenses and will not be tolerated. CO
Answer 15: Another law reminding a slave of their position. However I am not sure how often this is enforced, as role play by its very nature is a mutual endeavor. There are limits to the rights of the avatar/person; however no limits to the character in the role play.
16) slaves may wear any clothing pleasing to the Free, but must never try and conceal their collar, or hide the fact that they are a slave. The traditional and modest styled camisk, and white arm band (links below) are to be worn with no accessories, after the slave receives their collar and until the slave passes her 30 day probationary period and branded at her official ceremony. After that, silks may be worn as approved by the Free.

http://www.imvu.com/shop/product.php?products_id=4584602 (white armband)
Answer 16: Slaves must be pleasing to the Free in all ways. This includes their attire, or the lack of. Slaves on probation must adhere to a certain dress code to identify them as candidates.
17) slaves may not carry weapons or touch money unless given to them by a Free, for purposes of going to market and only then to be carried in mouth, or hand or in a pouch. CO
Answer 17: As Ice is to be trained as a fighting slave, this law is of particular importance because a slave may only carry what is given or ordered by the Free to do so.
18) All slaves, (including personally owned slaves) are to be collared and branded within a reasonable time period as determined by the Ubara. - By recommendation of Merchant Law, there are three standard marking places for brands, on the left inner thigh, left outer thigh, and lower abdomen. The slave will be prepared for the ceremony by one to three slaves who will bathe, style the hair of, shave and otherwise prepare the slave's body for the ceremony, branding and initiation.
http://www.imvu.com/shop/product.php?products_id=15095343 (kef brand)
Answer 18: A mark displaying who is a slave. Unlike the collar which may never be hidden, a kef brand may be located upon a slave depending on the Owner’s desire. The Oasis adheres to merchant law, however I am unaware of how actively it is enforced.
19) All NEW slaves are restricted to the main room and are required to take the training available. All slave training is conducted by "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" trainers.
Answer 19: A redundancy of an earlier law that restricts new slaves to the Oasis. Training of slaves is taken care of within the Oasis or by approved trainers.
20. The following is the greeting that slaves are to use when greeting Free Citizens AND Free "Candidates" of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars", whether there are guests in the room or not. Please note that this applies to Free who are in the room when the slave enter as well as any who arrive after you are there AND this greeting is only for "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free and not guests. The FG/Head Trainer/SG greet before any of the other slaves (in that order), as they are of a higher position. Please note that slaves are to greet EVERY time a Free comes into the room whether or not the slave has greeted that particular Free earlier that same day and that we are proposing doing away with the exit portion of this.
GREETING: Move to the feet of the Free you are greeting, drop to your knees (nadu for Masters unless a FW is present and tower for FW - male slaves tower to both) and kiss their feet with open mouth (male slaves will kiss the feet of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" FW and the floor in front of the "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Master). Once you have done this - you can then greet verbally. You can be creative in your words to be unique but do not remove their boots or shoes. Kissing the feet of the Free or the floor in front of them is to show respect, submission and your willingness to serve, obey, pleasure and please. If the Free does not respond within 3 minutes, the slave may move on to the next Free to greet stating why in her post. slaves are required to complete their greets to all Free in the room before stopping the greeting process and offering to serve one. This allows the flow to continue uninterrupted when the room is full, prevents the girls from forgetting to greet after a serve and allows the other girls to greet within an appropriate time frame after entering the room.
ALL Free of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" will NOT greet any slave entering until the slave has made an appropriate entrance and greeted that particular Free. If a slave asks for permission to enter and the Free or FG (if no Free are present) do not respond within 3 minutes, the slave may "slip in" to the room, making note in her post. The Free may acknowledge the slave by saying something like - "looks to the door and sees the beautiful slave girl ....entering" or something like that but will save their greeting until after the slave has entered and greeted them. slaves will always ask permission to enter the room when a Free or FG of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" is present and will perform the required entry. If no Free are present, but the First Girl is, the slave may perform an abbreviated entry but still must ask permission to enter the room."
When in private, a Master or Mistress may require ANY slave to greet him or her however they wish. [/color]. Failure to do so is considered disrespectful and will result in severe punishment. CO
Answer 20: This law is the express expectation of how an Oasis slave may enter and greet the Free. It also directs Free on how to respond based on a particular slave. The role play is enhanced greatly by the willingness and effectiveness of the slaves. This is a general overview and each slave of course has their own traits and applications towards the role play. Each point in the entrance and greetings must be fulfilled.
21) “Low Protocol” Entrance: There are times when a slave should enter "low protocol" - when she has little time IRL but wants to come in the room either to say Hi or deliver a message, etc, or a Free has asked for a low protocol entrance. In those cases, a slave may enter under what is called a “Low Protocol” entrance, where the slave merely says: “may this slave enter under low protocol due to real life or as per the Free's request”? In this case, The Free will say either you may or may not. If you are granted entrance, proceed to completing greatly shortened but appropriate greetings by rank.
Answer 21: A crucial decree as it allows a slave to visit briefly for important matters without endeavoring to do a full entrance, especially if the room is rather full requiring lengthy greetings in regular circumstances.
22) This is the greeting /procedure for greetings non- "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free who have entered "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars";
When a Gorean visitor comes to visit "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars", slaves are to wait for the Free to greet first...followed by the FG if she is there….then the slaves can greet...If no Free are in attendance, slaves shall proceed with FG leading if she is in attendance...and kneeling (nadu or tower) before visiting Free as part of a slave’s greeting and no feet kissing…. If a non- "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"Free is the only Free in the room when a slave enters, they do not need to ask permission to enter.
Answer 22: Non Free are to be greeted in respectful fashion, yet they are not to have their feet attended to, except perhaps wipe away any built up sand. A visiting Free is not a citizen of the Oasis and therefore cannot force a slave of the Oasis to ask permission to enter their home.
23) slaves may not charge for any services, private or otherwise unless directed to by a Master or in the line of duty if working in the tavern.
Answer 23: Two important things are meant by this law, one is that the role play of gor means that’s no slave can accept payment for their services. It also applies to the legality of Imvu, accepting payment for non approved Term of Service actions is a breach of a legal binding contract, far more serious than breaking a role play law.
24) slaves are expected to post at least 5 posts every day to the forum. Takes less than 5 minutes and it’s a law. Be a participating part of your city. CO
Answer 24: Another repeat of earlier laws. As a slave of the Oasis, it is important to be active and show interest in the city.
25) All "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars"slaves are required to show their Buddies, Visitors and Messages on their HP at all times, and all required stickers as determined by the Ubara. slaves may have their HP's as well as their face, hair, body, eyes, etc redone to reflect their Owners desires. All slaves are required to have their “IMVU room locators” on at all times. – CO
Answer 25: I am not sure how accurately I can follow this rule as I feel it a slight encroachment on my personal liberties not tied to my character. Even if Ice is a slave, there are certain boundaries I like to keep between myself and my character. I will do my best to comply though.
26) Being a slave in "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" is an honor and a privilege and being trained in the basics of Gorean slave skills is essential for ALL "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" slaves. We currently have a broad spectrum of skills in our girls.... from very new and totally raw to more established and fully trained. ALL girls need to know the laws of "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" and what is expected of them, they need to know how to enter and exit a room, speak properly, address the Masters and other Free properly, ask to be excused properly, serve basic drinks and food properly and maybe a dance or two. slaves are expected to attend training classes as applicable and complete any training as required.
Answer 26: My knowledge as a male slave is somewhat decayed over the years, but I hope through training and guidance from the Free and my sisters that I can build a reputable foundation for accurately adhering to my position as a male kajirus.
27) Any "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" slave entering the main room when no "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" Free are present do not need to ask permission to enter from a guest Free, but must ask to be excused.
Answer 27: Another partial law that simply requires that a slave be respectful when desiring to leave the presence of a non Oasis Free.
NOTE ON CAPITAL OFFENSE (“CO”) - Capital Offenses Punishments for capital offenses listed above as ("CO") can include but may not be limited to torture, rape, beatings, confinement, banishment and even death.
I have added the laws that were posted to the forum after I copied this to my word processor below. That is why there is a discrepancy in the numbers and laws.
5) "Oasis Of The Two Scimitars" law project - by the 14th day after becoming a slave candidate, all new slaves must read and study all the laws and write a 1-2 sentence response for every law as to what that law means to them and post to their personal thread.
Answer 5: A slave must show their dedication and willingness to understand the Oasis including its laws. It takes time to remember and recognize such a lengthy and thorough collection but in time I hope to have a firm grasp on them.
15) Slaves may go to their kennel ( online room) for purpose of timeout given by a Free , bonding time with sisters when a Free isn’t present online, or to have a chat with a Free or a slave. All public rooms are rp and are valid to any log of the kennel. All Kennels must have name of city and Description to be acceptable by any Free approval
Answer 15: Well I don’t have a kennel room yet, and haven’t had an ability to design rooms, so this law probably won’t apply to me. However kennels are active role play and not private chat.
18) slaves speak in the 3rd person and do not EVER use the first person pronoun in public rooms. There is no "I" "me" or "mine" in a slave’s vocabulary. In addition slaves are not permitted to use abbreviations like "brb", "ty", "yw", "gtg", "lol", "bc" etc.... spell it out. Only exception is the use of my when referring to a slaves owner.
Answer 18: This law makes you want to take pride in the role play. Everything the law prohibits is a direct representation of laziness. The third person or first person decision is left to the city. Oasis has chosen to have third person, so that is how I shall portray myself.
Laws for male slave (Kajiru):
In case of Kajiru, the male slaves, they will mainly be used for labourious task like the carrying of the good, digging of well, taking care of the Tharlarions of the city etc. They will not be pleasure slave until or unless Ubar or Ubara says so. If the Kajiru found to be offensive either in IC of OOC to any of the member of the city, they could be slaughtered (Char Killing) on the spot by the Free’s or will loose their citizenship. In such acts, the copy of chats should be put in forum in the forum immediately and message has to be sent to the Ubar , Ubara, Administrator and First Sword. Kajiru are not supposed to kiss the feet of any Free during their greets, they can only kiss the floor.
Answer: I do not honor out of character conversations as having direct consequences to the role play. If there are disagreements they must be worked out and together. However in character is completely different. A kajirus is just like any other slave, he must abide the same laws and restrictions, must conduct himself as a slave. Gender has no preference to a slave. Also very important last note about kissing the floor, this law I will be abiding closely, so I don’t become confused. Ice will not kiss the feet of any Free during a greeting, regardless of citizenship or not.
