The Territory:
The town of Höganäs can't really be called a Domain, as such, being more of a small town territory, rather than a city.
As such, it is below the interests of the Camarilla, and a majority of the Anarchs.
The few undead denizens of the town consider themselves Unbound.
The Laws of the Night:
In this territory, the Unbound Kindred adhere to a set of Ground Rules, rather than the Camarilla Traditions, in part or entirely.
The Ground Rules were written by The Fury, who is also charged with enforcing them; they were loosely based on the Camarilla Traditions, written to be more forgiving, and are as follows:
- Don't let the mortals know what you are — if you absolutely have to, don't let them think you're dangerous; to do so is to endanger all of our kind. (The Masquerade, with allowances made for bending it.)
- Mutual respect is the cornerstone of peaceful coexistence; treat others how you'd wish to be treated. (The Domain, for a smaller scale.)
- Don't go around making baby bats if you're not going to take responsibility for them. (The Progeny, and The Accounting.)
- DON'T FUCKING GO AROUND MAKING BABY BATS IF YOU'RE NOT GOING TO FUCKING TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEM — I SWEAR TO FUCK, I WILL MAKE YOU WISH YOU WERE A PILE OF GODDAMNED FUCKING ASHES. (The Fury doth despise an irresponsible, deadbeat parent.)
- Check in with the local licks when you visit, and before you settle down; you don't really need their permission to be here, it's just good to know who your friendly neighborhood licks are. (The Hospitality — this version of it may seem too forgiving, but it's made up for by the below rule.)
- Don't go around killing people or licks, unless they are harmful to the rest of us; if they're connected to one of us, that lick should be allowed a chance to deal with them first. (The Destruction — this version aims to prevent unnecessary killings, which risk discovery, while allowing Kindred to defend themselves and others.)
The Keepers:
The Community Manager — a Kindred who oversees the state of the territory, and the comings and goings of the other Kindred, but doesn't impose their will on its denizens. In times of need, they will request aid, not demand it; among the few Kindred in the territory, it is considered a moral obligation to help others, in accordance with their needs, and to the best of one's ability. The Community Manager also keeps their fingers on the pulse of the local mortal populace, and stays apprised of current events, to be able to inform the Kindred of any potential dangers or opportunities.
The Fury — the de facto law enforcement of the territory, they are responsible for punishing rule breakers, once a verdict has been reached. Very rarely has it had to involve someone's Final Death, in the territory's relatively short history, and usually it is limited to a very severe beating.
