Embassy Regulations:
- Diplomats, their family, and their staff are all considered under the protection of diplomatic immunity, meaning that they will not be detained, arrested or prosecuted for non-violent, non-act-of-treason offenses they are accused of while in Dark Star Tower. The local government reserves the right to ask diplomats and/or members of their staff to leave the nation if their behavior is deemed unacceptable. In the case of actively violent crimes, (assault, murder, acts of treason such as rape, etc.) diplomatic immunity does not apply and the diplomat and/or their staff are subject to whatever force is necessary to immediately protect lives.
- Security Staff may use any weaponry they wish, but may not carry certain weapons (namely bombs, NBC weapons, and guns-- excluding firearms and shotguns) off embassy property. The ambassador may request a Shadowmancer to be assigned to their security staff.
- Please keep in mind that due to the structural layout of Dark Star Tower's cities and streets, automobile vehicles such as cars, trucks, buses, tractors, tanks, etc. would all be virtually unusable.
- All imported items must adhere to local laws and are subject to inspection by the Royal Customs Service. Certain goods may be denied entry if determined to be harmful to the population.
- Due to a recent incident involving 200 cubic tons of dynamite and a four-armed cowboy, the wooden shack by the fake burger king that looks like a phallic symbol from a certain angle is not available for conversion into an embassy until further notice. We apologize for this inconvenience.
- The Twilight Embassy reserves the right to impose further regulations and restrictions at any time.
