Visitors:

  • If you are going to have people visit, have them call first before they leave the city and ring the warning bell at least 10 minutes before they arrive so everyone will have their clothes on.
  • If strangers show up don't let them in without an elder's permission. NEVER. If they are making a delivery have them leave it at the gate. Anything we buy will be paid for ahead of time.
  • If a stranger is escorted in treat them politely and act normal. Assume they know nothing and we want to keep it that way. Keep the children away from them just in case.
  • If you need to arrange a meeting with someone outside the family, use the business office we keep in the city.
  • If you see someone struggling with something and you don't have work to do, help them, then they won't have work to do, then you can both help someone else, until at the end of the day, no one has anything to do but relax or party.

How to make Proper introductions:
"This is Bob, he is a chiropractor." - If you introduce someone to a family member describing that person with only a job it means you know little about them as a person and can not vouch for them in any way. They are not to be trusted.

"This is my friend, Bob" - You are willing to vouch for this person in so much that he is unlikely to harm anyone.

"This is my wise friend, Bob" - By adding the word "wise" you indicate that Bob is in some way connected to the super-natural and that your family should be careful around him. He may be harmless or he might not. You can never be sure.

"This is Bob, he's a friend of ours." - This means that Bob can be trusted to such a level that he has access to the farm lands.

"Bob is an associate of mine." - Associates are people with business connections, or connections to super-natural resources if you say "wise associate"

"This, is Bob." - If you do not give any qualifying statements it means that person is not to be trusted in any way and may be an enemy.

The SAFE-WORD is Mississippi.

If at any point you are under duress you can talk about Mississippi, speak of someone from Mississippi, or something you learned there, any mention of Mississippi is a signal to the family that you are in need of saving.
