Not necessarily, someone other than Annie might not play ball. And might try to be a constant thorn/threat to the prison staff.

Two individuals thrown into the same situation might behave differently.

Doesn't really matter, they all get the same meals.

Are you saying that if the prisoner attacks prison staff, refuses to cooperate with state psychiatrists and interrogators, constantly engages in attempts to escape, and continually poses a threat of being annoying and threatening to all staff members...

that you wouldn't dock points for uncooperative behaviour?

No. They'd get the same meals. They'd get thrown in The Hole though...

I was thinking the prison would be near Rome (or else in England); not necessarily dead set on this

its location would be top secret to all but the highest ranked Mage members of course

but does this affect your answer?

And all the staff you run the place. And the catering office that supplies it's food. And people living vaguely nearby. Try as you might, I'll still find it and be able to kill Witch Hitler and the Order of Morons.

As a committed supporter of Oliver Cromwell (see my previous signature from before the mods DEATed me for no reason, this is a long-standing belief I have), I would vote to revoke for another year as I am against celebrating Christmas.

Cromwell hated a lot of things. Holidays, Catholics, Kings, Catholics, the Irish, Catholics, and of course Catholics.

I can easily think of one king who would beg to differ.

You know, I've been thinking.

By their definition, witches are devil worshipers as they practice witchcraft. So why would she be celebrating holy holidays like Christmas if she herself is unholy?

I was under the impression standard Christian theology held everyone to be sinners/unholy

it wouldn't be specific to her

Something something alternate history, something something isn't she so sympathetic.
