People in the “scene” will often speak of “real time” slaves as distinct from merely casual players, or will distinguish between lifestylers and mere hobbyists. In Code d’ Odalisque these distinctions are covered by the concepts of OCCLUSION and SOJOURN. Whether a player is “real time” and is living “The Lifestyle” or not depends upon the amount of time she spends in OCCLUSION as opposed to how much time she spends in SOJOURN.
Occlusion is the state of captivity when an odalisque is in active service to her Master. She spends this time naked and barefoot, a willing live-in cockslave. At other times, though, she may be allowed to go out into the world like a freewoman. Such times are called Sojourn. A 24/7 RT slave spends her time entirely in occlusion and never goes on sojourn. On the other hand, a part-time “hobby” slave will spend only a short time in occlusion and will otherwise spend most of her time on sojourn.
In this way, Code d’ Ode is very flexible. The rules of the Code are made with full-time serious players in mind. But the Code is easily adapted to those people who merely want to role-play now and then. Full-time occlusion (with only short and occasional periods in sojourn) is the ideal for a true odalisque, but a wide range of other arrangements are possible. It is fair to say that modern women are less inclined to spend 100% of their time in occlusion when compared to odalisques of past eras. Under Code d’ Ode a woman can spend 4 days a week in occlusion serving her Master and three days a week in sojourn doing a University degree or working in an office. The balance between occlusion and sojourn is to be determined by agreement between Master and slave and can change according to circumstance.
It should be stressed that a slave on sojourn is NOT a freewoman. She is still a slave and is still bonded to her Master, and there is a code of behaviour for her to follow whilst away on sojourn. And it also needs to be said that a true odalisque under a competent Master will yearn for longer periods of occlusion and will cherish the times when her captive service is uninterupted by the other concerns of life.
