Rules of Elysium for the Domain of Baltimore, MD

(Updated 31/JAN/2025)

Do not commit or incite violence on Elysium. Do not violate persons, property, or artwork. Doing violence to yourself is still violence and thus is punishable by this office and others. Suggesting that someone should stake themselves is inciting violence on Elysium, as is goading someone into frenzy.

Elysium does not end at an arbitrary number of feet from the building. There are no rooms inside, under or over the location that are "not Elysium." This also means that visitors to Elysium are given some surety that they and their property are offered safe passage to and from Elysium sites. For example, they will not be summoned off into danger or attacked halfway home. Obviously there will always be things outside our control that can happen and everyone should use caution coming and going from Elysium and gathering sites for that matter; however our citizens and visitors will follow the rules of Elysium, coming from and going to Elysium sites. This does NOT mean enemies of the Camarilla or the Domain get a free pass or a promise of protection until safely out of the Domain! Final ruling in this case falls to Her Grace, Prince Victoria DeLaNoche.

Otherworldly spaces coterminous with Elysium are considered Elysium for the purposes of these rules. (The Astral Plane, Shadowlands, all levels of the Umbra, etc.)

The Prince and the Officers of the Court of Baltimore cannot be held responsible for events that take place once one has exited the Domain of Baltimore. When traveling long(er) distances, one should also remember to obtain Hospitality from our neighboring Domains.

Leave your otherworldly retainers at home. Examples include wraiths and spirits.

Possession of humans is prohibited on Elysium.

Former Elysia remain so. They are only removed from the list under most dire of circumstances and most extreme cases.

G&G 2025: Reminder: We do allow themed, non ranged weapons that are not stakes to be carried on Elysia for the event. Keep in mind, if you have to ask “is allowed?” the answer is likely ‘no’ so don’t bring it.
