Post-Simulacrum Escort Procedure of Emperor Uriel Septim VII

An Excerpt

  1. His Majesty The Emperor must be accompanied by an entourage of at least three Knight Brothers/Sisters when travelling outside of his personal chambers in White-Gold Tower. When inside his chambers, at least one Knight Brother/Sister must be stationed outside of The Emperor’s chambers, with another watching through an unseen observation panel to watch for a nocturnal attack.

  2. Personal assistants to His Majesty The Emperor including, but not limited to, The Imperial Battlemage, must be extensively background checked before they are allowed to accompany the Emperor, in terms of both personal and family history.

  3. His Majesty The Emperor’s food, before each meal, must first be taste-tested before leaving the area of preparation, as well as again before consumption, by a designated Knight Brother/Sister.

  4. His Majesty The Emperor’s eyes must be thoroughly checked at various intervals of the day for the possibility of a Simulacrum, or a mind-control incantation – once after waking up, once after each meal, and once before sleep.

  5. During a public event that has not been fully combed for risk – including, but not limited to, a third-party dinner gathering – a decoy may be used. A failsafe must be agreed upon by the decoy’s handlers in the event that his loyalty to the Empire falters, and a Simulacrum becomes possible.
