- You are not to ghoul or otherwise use the Gifts of the Blood to directly influence mortals of high station, due to the potential issues of violations of the First Tradition. This includes, but is not limited to: the governor, the mayor, the chief of police, and other leadership-level high ranking officials in mortal institutions. Should you wish to ghoul someone within a mortal institution, err on the side of caution.
- Whomever is by the Prince's command named Sheriff of the domain shall hold personal domain over the Asheville Regional Airport.
- The Sheriff shall provide safe travel through his personal domain, as well as the services of the airline. It is traditional to pay at least a minor boon for his leave to use this institution.
- The Keeper of Elysium shall declare at each gather which clan shall be responsible for hosting the next, or if it shall be on the hallowed grounds of Elysia. Should a clan fail to host gather when called, their blood shall be denied a seat on the Primogen council.
- The host of any gathering is responsible for providing the requisite necessities for ghouls that are at the gathering (at minimum, this covers providing potable water). Failure to provide this basic courtesy will result in a Trivial Boon to the ghoul's domitor.
- The Primogen Council may offer guidance on the allocation and boundaries of clan feeding territories within the domain. As a liaison in this matter, passed proposals are presented to the Keeper, who then delivers them to Her Grace, and conveys her pronouncements on feeding territories to the domain.
- The Tremere will be granted hunting grounds at least equal in size and sustenance as the represented clan with the least bounty. Though not granted a seat on my council, it is duly noted that leaving them hungry probably only makes them more irritating.
- Do not feed on those attending institutions of primary or secondary education, or those in transit to and from institutions of primary or secondary education. Such actions are likely to draw the attention of hunters, and moreover, thin the flock before they can reproduce.
- While it is acceptable to feed on those visiting our region, do not allow the death or disappearance of a Tourist to be investigated by mortal authorities. Doing so threatens the financial well-being of the domain, as well as the Masquerade.
Those found in violation of the above will be punished by the Prince or Seneschal accordingly.
- Violence of any kind is strictly prohibited on the grounds of Elysium. This prohibition of violence extends to travel to and from Elyisum, and a surrounding radius of 5 blocks.
- Weapons are forbidden on the Elysium grounds, except to those with the status to carry them. Weapons and other questionable equipment such as magical items must be left away from the Elysium or, if brought to Elysium, checked by the Keeper(s) of Elysium and their appointed agents, and will be stored for safekeeping. If you are in doubt of whether something will violate this Courtesy, err on the side of caution.
- Any use of Disciplines on Elysium must be approved by the Keeper.
- All gatherings shall be secured against breaches of the First Tradition.
- Any personal guests of the Prince are to be guests of the Praxis and are to be accorded respect and courtesy. Failure to do so shall have the offending Kindred owe the Prince and their guest(s) boons based on the severity of the infraction. The Prince may choose to revoke this protection on any of their guests at their discretion
Those who violate the above will be punished by the Prince or Seneschal accordingly, with input on the punishment given by the Keeper(s) of Elysium.
- For the continued safety and preservation of the domain, as dictated with our treaty with the Lupines, do not venture onto the Biltmore Estate.
- The Scourge's name shall not be publicly stated, but ye' shall fear him. He is granted the Sixth Tradition, within reason.
- The Scourge shall not only dispose of any kindred who reside in the domain without seeking my hospitality, but any Lupines who transgress their treaty, and any such transgressions shall have vengeance redoubled twofold.
- The Sheriff shall be the foreman in all negotiations with the Diosce of WNC, and shall be responsible for severing any hand that overreaches.
- Should any kindred question the Sheriff's war plan, they should challenge him in the Sacred Arena of Elysia at the Arboretum as is our custom. The challenger must present a second for this duel.
- The Towns of Black Mountain, Hendersonville, Waynesville, Old Fort, Rutherfordton/Spindale, Marion, Canton, and Sylva have been ceded to the Diosce of WNC. Our domain ends at their borders.
- The Towns of Morgington, Hotsprings, Marshall, and the entirety of the Blue Ridge Parkway have been ceded to the Lupines. Our domain ends at their borders
- The Town of Mars Hill has been ceded to the Barony of Baron Schaefer. Our domain ends at its borders I guess.
- Don't feed on, ghoul, or embrace the Lupines' kinsfolk. Those who do shall receive no protection from this Praxis against the Lupines' wrath.
Those found in violation of the above will be either be punished by the Prince or Seneschal accordingly.
- Do not stop The Weather, do not share The Weather with those not of the blood.
- At the will of Her Grace, but traditionally at the closest solstice or equinox for the seasons, the Prince shall host an art competition judged either by herself, or her designated kindred of fine taste. Every clan that wishes to retain a Primogen seat should put forth a worthy piece for consideration. Winning pieces will be gifted to the Keeper's stewardship, to grace the walls of Elysium's private art gallery for now until eternity's end.
- While it is open, the Arena of Elysia at the Arboretum shall serve as an open form for conflicts to be resolved. Such violence shall not break Elysium, but must be engaged by both parties. Such a duel shall continue until one party is rendered torpid, or ejected from the arena. Should a party be rendered torpid in this manner, the victor shall be granted the Sixth Tradition should they choose to take it. Unfortunately, they are not granted the Amaranth in this case. All such conflicts should be overseen and all vows given should be heard by an officer of the sect who is not engaging in the duel.
- During calls of court and other official functions, those whose Blood has not earned a Primogen seat shall negotiate with a standing Primogen to speak on their behalf. Be mindful of the Status of those whom you address.
- Our Emissary of the Sword, Zelda Fitzgerald, shall be allowed to speak during calls of court, despite the above courtesy. Moreover, any art she presents the court shall not be damaged or absconded with during said official function.

Those found in violation of the above will be either be punished by the Prince or Seneschal accordingly.
- Actions performed by a Ghoul, whether independently or by order of their domitor, that violate the Courtesies of Greater Asheville or the Traditions (in particular, the First Tradition), will be confiscated and dealt with per the Prince’s discretion, and their domitor punished by the court accordingly. Note that maintaining Ghouls is not considered a violation of the First Tradition.
- Kindred should be mindful of how they use technology. Security breaches that may violate the First Tradition shall be reported to the Sheriff as soon as possible. Those found in violation of this edict, whether you have cleaned up the breach yourself or not, may be punished accordingly at the Prince and Sheriff's discretion.
- Do not involve yourselves in the affairs of the other Night Folk if at all possible. If you must, intimate details given of Kindred nature or society to the other Night Folk without the consent of the Prince or Seneschal will be considered a violation of the First Tradition and punished accordingly.
Those found in violation of the above will be punished by the Prince or Seneschal accordingly.
