The five ancient traditions or customs which the pentacle members consider to be their "constitution" or basis for existing as a civilized society. Every cabal chooses for themselves which of the Great Rights they wish to follow, if any, and exactly how they plan to uphold it. Those who choose to ignore them completely are considered wild barbarians who can't be trusted to co-exist in peace with others, while those obeying all five are seen to be either very honorable or very stuffy and traditionalistic. Or both. This is customarily spelled out in their Cabal's Charter.
In any case, the five Great Rights are Crossing, Emeritus, Hospitality, Nemesis and Sanctuary, which are each covered in their own paragraphs below:
