Guidance for the Judiciary
 | 
| 
Incest
 | 
| The practice of consanquinous union is likley to produce abominations as offspring. It is well 
known that among Imperials, Minotaurs are born as a result of this. Since the consequences are 
sufficent punishment, the law does not add any extra bounty. | 
The secret is out! They're really Imperials, rejected by their parents.
 | 
| 
Necrophilia
 | 
| Congress with the dead (or undead) is expressly forbidden by Imperial Statute. Judges are 
permitted to take into consideration the context of the offense, such as rape by zombie (no 
further punishment needed), or where both parties are undead of their own volition, (although 
this scribe knows of no case of female Liches). | 
Falanu may have some wiggle room - though I don't see her becoming a Lich | 
| 
Bestiality
 | 
Judicial discretion allows varying punishment dependent on the creature involved. Higher fines 
are to be imposed when the creature is docile and domesticated, and lesser ones for more 
belligerent beasts, who will have no doubt extracted some punishment of their own. 
Also, we need to consider the intelligence of the beast. Let us not forget that Khajjit and 
Argonian were considered "beasts" not long ago. Fines can no longer be imposed when either 
race is the topic of the complaint, indeed the Khajiit or Argonian has a case for defamation 
against the complainer! | 
Minotaurs = Imperials, so not an offense at all? | 
| 
Vampirism
 | 
| Infecting a partner with vampirism as a consequence of intercourse is considered an assault if 
the vampirism was concealed at the time. The offended party is often unaware of this until a 
day or two later, so the law permits the complaint to be lodged even after such a delay. This 
can of course make it difficult to identify the assailant, particularly if the girl complaining 
is a Dunmer. | 
The author must be a Bosmer, or he wouldn't be so insulting! | 
| 
Sadism
 | 
| This is only considered an offense if a party actually dies, in which case necrophilia is 
assumed to have taken place. Other assaults are already covered by the law, and if the victim 
complains, the intent is not relevant. | 
Silanu was right to flee when she did.
