Ever wondered how the authoritarian HiveWing society from Wings of Fire ranks criminal offenses? This comprehensive ranking explores the severity of crimes in HiveWing law, from minor infractions like shoplifting and trespassing to capital offenses such as treason, assassination, and advocating government overthrow.
The list features surprisingly specific charges—including the peculiar "depiction of trees" (a nod to the tribe's controlled society), "stink weapon," and the oddly specific "egg theft." Serious felonies like murder, torture, and hostage-taking appear alongside white-collar crimes such as embezzlement and tax fraud. Some entries hint at the HiveWings' rigid hierarchy, like "impersonating a council member" and "taunting an authority figure," revealing how their justice system prioritizes maintaining order and protecting those in power.
