Habbo can't "take" a domain that I've paid for if I'm not doing anything illegal.

lol not if I'm not trying to be like them. People own http://myspace.biz/ and I've owned myspace.ug for two years now with no issues.

They can force you to give it to them free of charge as Habbo is a trademark of Sulake (OY). Infact, if you don't give it to them when they ask, they'll take you to court and you'll be the one paying them to take your domain off you (yes, I speak the truth).

Habbo do not have the same copyright arrangements as Myspace. They'll just treat it as a Habbo server and have it taken down, how much did you even pay for it?

Yes, it was, however it was the first registered Habbo fansite and it was created before Habbo was a trademark (or before habbohotel became Habbo I forget which) meaning that they cannot force them to take it down.

Because Habbo is now trademarked, they can legally take it down because of imitation.

Techinically not, the habbo trademark/domains only applys to major TLDs e.g .com,.co.uk,.com.au etc .la Is not a major tld same as .am. But if you have any queries about it just contact sulake and ask.
