Protocols, The
this set of laws which govern the challenges and duels which dominated Adumari society, the Protocols stipulate - among other things - that any duel must benefit both combatants. A young pilot who challenges an older, more experience pilot, will be refused under the Protocols, since the older pilot has nothing more to gain from the duel. Another Protocol used in fighter craft duels involved the setting of match numbers, which specified the size of the opposing teams. Once a challenge was made, the recipient could accept or decline, If they accepted, they had the right to set the match number.
