The Séptimo Contract

I, ________________________________, agree to read and follow the expectations outlined within this contract.

The Séptimo exists to provide safety, opportunity, employment, and a fresh start to those who choose to sail aboard her. This contract is designed to protect the wellbeing of the crew, maintain the operation of the vessel, and ensure a respectful environment for all who live and work aboard.

By signing this contract, I agree to contribute to the safety of the ship, respect those around me, and conduct myself in a manner that supports the crew and the continued success of the Séptimo.

I. General Expectations

I understand that the Captain Team is responsible for the operation and welfare of the Séptimo, and that their rulings are final aboard the vessel.
I understand that the Séptimo accepts individuals from all backgrounds regardless of race, nationality, faith, status, profession, criminal history, magical affliction, or circumstance.
I understand that crew members are judged by their conduct aboard the Séptimo. A person's past alone is not grounds for harassment, exclusion, intimidation, or violence.
Discussions held within the Captain's Office are confidential unless disclosure is required for the safety of the crew or vessel.
I will disclose any medical conditions, curses, afflictions, allergies, active bounties, or other concerns that may affect my safety, the safety of others, or my ability to perform my duties.
I understand that the Séptimo operates outside regional jurisdiction and that while aboard I am expected to follow the rules and standards established by the Captain Team.

II. Safety & Security

The safety of the crew and vessel is a shared responsibility. I will report any concerning behaviour, security risks, criminal activity, or threats to the Guard Team or Captain Team as soon as possible.
Unless there is an immediate threat to myself, another individual, or the vessel, I will not take disciplinary matters into my own hands. Concerns should be reported to the appropriate authority for investigation.
I may act in reasonable self-defence or in defence of others when necessary. Any use of force should be proportionate to the threat and used only to prevent harm.
Individuals involved in incidents that may pose a risk to the crew may be temporarily restrained or held while an investigation is conducted. The Captain Team will review the matter with support from the Guard Team and relevant witnesses before determining an appropriate course of action.
If I encounter an individual aboard the Séptimo who does not hold a valid contract or permission to be aboard, I will notify the Guard Team and assist if requested.
Visitors may only be brought aboard with approval from the Captain Team or Guard Team.
I will use magic, abilities, weapons, and specialised equipment responsibly and in a manner that does not place others at unnecessary risk.
I will not damage, vandalise, misuse, or intentionally interfere with the ship, its systems, equipment, inventory, or facilities.
I will not steal, tamper with, or knowingly take property belonging to another crew member, tenant, visitor, organisation, or the Séptimo itself.

III. Respect & Conduct

The Séptimo is home to people from many different backgrounds, cultures, beliefs, professions, and walks of life. All crew members are expected to treat one another with dignity, respect, and consideration.

I will respect the privacy of my fellow crew members and will not pressure others into sharing personal information regarding their history, beliefs, identity, health, or personal circumstances.
I will not knowingly spread false information, malicious rumours, or accusations intended to harm another member of the crew.
I will respect the personal boundaries of others and will not engage in unwanted physical contact, intimidation, threats, bullying, harassment, or abuse.
Discrimination based on race, nationality, religion, disability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, magical affliction, profession, or background will not be tolerated aboard the Séptimo.
Consent is mandatory aboard the vessel. Sexual harassment, coercion, unwanted advances, exploitation, or any sexual activity without clear consent is prohibited.
Disagreements between crew members should be resolved respectfully. Where necessary, mediation may be requested through the Captain Team, Guard Team, Medical Team, or another trusted representative.
All crew members, visitors, tenants, contractors, and partner organisations are entitled to a safe and respectful environment while aboard the Séptimo.

IV. Health & Wellbeing

The health and wellbeing of the crew is essential to the safe operation of the Séptimo. Crew members are encouraged to seek support when needed and to take reasonable steps to care for themselves and those around them.

I will provide relevant medical information upon signing my contract, including any conditions, allergies, afflictions, curses, medications, or other concerns that may affect my safety or the safety of others.
If I become sick, injured, or experience a decline in my physical or mental wellbeing, I will seek support from the Medical Team as soon as reasonably possible.
I understand that medical supplies, medicines, and treatment resources are shared by the entire crew and should be used responsibly.
Deliberately injuring myself, repeatedly ignoring medical advice, or knowingly placing myself in preventable danger may result in disciplinary action, temporary suspension from duties, or financial responsibility for resources used.
I understand that I may be temporarily quarantined, isolated, relieved of duty, or otherwise restricted if necessary to protect the health and safety of the crew.
Medical information will be treated confidentially and shared only where necessary to provide care, maintain safety, or fulfil operational responsibilities.
If I require medical care beyond the capabilities of the Séptimo, the ship will provide reasonable support until appropriate treatment can be obtained on land.
I understand that the Séptimo is an operational vessel and not a residential environment for young children or pregnant individuals. Due to the risks associated with shipboard life, alternative accommodation may be required.

V. Living Aboard the Séptimo

The Séptimo is both a vessel and a home. All crew members share responsibility for maintaining a safe, clean, and respectful living environment.

Personal Space & Property

Upon signing my contract, I will be assigned a bunk and storage space aboard the vessel. Accommodation may vary depending on role, duties, and operational requirements.

Locks, storage containers, and private belongings may not be tampered with without permission.
Weapons must be stored responsibly and may only be drawn or used during work duties, training exercises, emergencies, or lawful self-defence.
I am responsible for the behaviour, care, safety, and wellbeing of any animal, familiar, companion, or creature brought aboard the Séptimo. The vessel cannot accommodate animals exceeding approved size restrictions.

Sexual activity is not permitted within communal areas of the vessel.
Crew members sharing accommodation are expected to respect the comfort, privacy, and boundaries of those around them. Those seeking complete privacy may be asked to wait until suitable arrangements can be made or until the vessel reaches port.

VI. Work, Payment & Duties

The Séptimo operates through the combined efforts of its crew. Each role aboard the vessel contributes to the safety, operation, and success of the ship.

I will perform the duties assigned under my contract to the best of my abilities and will conduct myself professionally while on shift.
I am expected to attend scheduled duties, meetings, training sessions, and responsibilities relevant to my role unless excused by the Captain Team, Medical Team, or other authorised personnel.
Repeated failure to attend assigned duties without reasonable cause may result in disciplinary action, reassignment, suspension of duties, or termination of contract.
I will not interfere with the duties of another crew member or intentionally hinder the operation of the vessel.
Additional duties, temporary assignments, or emergency responsibilities may be assigned when necessary to ensure the safety and operation of the Séptimo.
Crew members are entitled to payment for work completed under their contract.
Payments will be managed through the Ship Purser and held within a personal account unless otherwise requested.
I may request access to my earnings at any reasonable time during my employment aboard the Séptimo.
Overtime, specialist work, and additional responsibilities may be compensated at the discretion of the Captain Team.

VII. External Organisations

The Séptimo may lease offices, workshops, facilities, and operational spaces to approved organisations, businesses, professionals, and partner groups.
These organisations operate independently but are expected to respect the rules, standards, and safety requirements of the Séptimo while aboard the vessel.
Crew members are expected to respect leased premises and may not enter these spaces without permission unless authorised, required by their duties, or responding to an emergency.
Concerns regarding tenants, partner organisations, contractors, or leased facilities should be reported to the Captain Team.

VIII. Docked at Land

While docked, crew members act as representatives of the Séptimo. Professional conduct, respect for local customs, and compliance with local laws are expected at all times.
I will wait for permission to disembark when required by the Captain Team. Information regarding the port, local laws, safety concerns, and operational requirements will be made available before departure from the vessel.
While ashore, I remain responsible for my own wellbeing, possessions, and conduct.
I will respect the people, cultures, laws, and traditions of the lands I visit and will not engage in behaviour that brings harm, unnecessary conflict, or disrepute to the Séptimo.
Trade, employment, and private business conducted while docked must comply with local laws and any restrictions established by the Captain Team.
Crew members who become involved in legal disputes, criminal investigations, or incidents while ashore are expected to report these matters to the Captain Team as soon as reasonably possible.

IX. Entertainment, Alcohol & Gambling

Crew members are encouraged to enjoy their free time and make use of the facilities available aboard the Séptimo.

Training halls, social areas, libraries, recreational facilities, and organised events are provided for the enjoyment and wellbeing of the crew.
Training and sparring are permitted provided all participants consent, appropriate safety measures are followed, and there is no intent to cause unnecessary harm to oneself or others.
Books, equipment, games, and shared recreational resources should be treated with care and returned after use.
The Séptimo maintains an open bar. Ale, beer, and mead are available free of charge during designated hours. Additional beverages and services may be purchased where applicable.
I understand that intoxication is not an excuse for misconduct, violence, harassment, damage to property, or failure to perform my duties safely.
Gambling involving money, wages, contracts, property, or other valuables is prohibited aboard the Séptimo unless expressly authorised by the Captain Team.
I understand that I must always accept an invitation for a drink from a member of the Captain Team.

X. Failure to Follow This Contract

The expectations outlined within this contract exist to protect the crew, maintain the operation of the vessel, and ensure a safe and respectful environment aboard the Séptimo.

Where possible, concerns will be addressed through discussion, guidance, mediation, additional training, or support from the appropriate department. The Captain Team will always seek a fair and reasonable solution when one can be found.

However, the safety of the crew and vessel must come first. Serious, deliberate, or repeated breaches of this contract may result in investigation by the Captain Team and disciplinary action where necessary.

Consequences may include temporary suspension of duties, financial responsibility for damages or resources used, reassignment of duties, confinement, demotion, termination of contract, or removal from the vessel.

By signing this contract, I acknowledge that I have read, understood, and agreed to the expectations outlined above.
