Cheating charter

A cheating charter was a card issued by the Malachorian Order of Chartered Cheaters that granted its holders some privileges. Their holders are known as chartered cheaters. Very few non-Malachorians ever held cheating charters.

Obtaining a charter
There were two ways to obtain a charter. Applicants to a charter were called cheater-candidates. Cheater-candidates could attempt getting their cheating charters by cheating all the way through their final examinations, without being caught. If one was caught, a cheater-candidate could apply again next year. Approximately 5 to 10% of cheater-candidates became chartered cheaters each year.

Usually, students that ultimately became chartered cheaters started the process in the latter years of or in, although there were recorded cases of cheater-candidates succeeding while in first grade. It was ill-advised for Malachorian students to attempt getting their charters while in high school. No matter the case, student manifests were delivered to invigilators with three columns: the first column was for normal students, the second for the cheater-candidates and the third one for chartered cheaters. The costs of such charters were often prohibitive.

Alternatively, they could cheat in casinos, but the mechanism to obtain charters in casinos was not revealed.

Privileges
The cheating charters granted its holders the right to cheat in course examinations administered by the Malachor V Ministry of Education and in s on Malachor V in complete legality. Also, cheating charters granted the right to append the post-nominals CC after the holder's name. However, chartered cheaters had to show to the invigilators (or security guards in casinos) their cheating charters before writing their exams or gambling.
