==Legal Exceptions & Grey Zones== | |||
# Artifacts exist in a "Legal Grey Zone", which means, it is not strictly legal or illegal to own them. Anyone can own an Artifact, but if they are assaulted, and it is stolen from them, they have no legal recourse against the thieves. This includes Nobles, Eminents, and members of the Metropolitan who are not protected by the Law, Crown, or Metropolitan if someone attacks them for their Artifact (but their House Guards might still intervene.) | |||
# Dragon Sites exist in a "Legal Grey Zone," which means it is not strictly legal or illegal to interact with them. An individual character will never be arrested for interacting with an Event at a Dragon Site, or getting into physical conflict with others at a Dragon site (even Nobles, Eminents, or members of the Metropolitan). The Law cannot be enforced at Dragon sites. However, individuals should take care to not openly speak about their interactions at Dragon Sites while they are in the City, because they are not immune to vigilante retribution. They just cannot be arrested by the State. | |||
# The Fae Sepulchre exists outside of the law. Any interactions that occur during Fae Sepulchre raids cannot be used to prosecute individuals, capture, or arrest them. However, individuals are not immune to vigilante retribution. They just cannot be arrested by the State. | |||

Legal Codes exist to cover more complex topics that would be too long to write down into individual Laws. Legal Codes often also create exceptions or additional layers to laws. When it concerns contradictions between Legal Codes and Laws, Legal Codes are always superior. | Legal Codes exist to cover more complex topics that would be too long to write down into individual Laws.
