Supplementary Information

• I revisited all the past DPA laws since T1 and tried to keep most of it as similar as possible as it progressed along the years. The one thing I did amend was the time limit for inheriting and claiming items. I adjusted it to an even 60 days like the other 2 statuses to make it easier to remember. --Tesa
