Tall City Crime Collar
When an individual from the tall cities is convicted of a violent or particularly condemnable crime, a padded iron collar is fastened around their neck to alert everyone in their vicinity that they might be dangerous. The collars are extremely obvious and hard to hide. Simple stamped medallions are added to the collar for each offense a person commits, creating a distinctive jingling sound when the person walks.
Though the people who wear these collars are usually Suktu, the occasional Polda, Metropolitan Kalzua, or Adalei can be seen wearing one. The collars may be removed after a certain period of time, but those convicted of killing another will likely never get theirs taken off until their own death.
Mechanics & Inner Workings
The collars each have two internal locks, as well as hinges that allow them to be opened and closed. The medallions that display which crime(s) the wearer has been convicted of are attached to small loops on the collar's surface.
Significance
The collars come with intense stigma. Those who wear them are met with judgement by most. There are, however, criminal circles where the collars are held in admiration.
