The Null Protocols

The Null Protocols are the series of proclamations issued by the Heritage Families over twenty years ago in response to the Dharma Pass Incident that ended the Grain War.

Proclamation 1
Zeroes must be differentiation from the rest of society in ways: tatooed on their right shoulder with a circle, gloves worn in public at all times.

Proclamation 2
Zeroes are not allowed to engage in sexual intercourse outside of government-subsidized procreation.

Proclamation 3
Zero children must be raised by at least one zero parent. All other Manifestations are to be forfeited to the government.
