[/size]WHAT IS AND ISNT ALLOWED IN LUCID MANOR
Everyone knows that mental asylums generally have a limit on what one can and cannot bring in through the doors, with heavy security going through virtually everything. This is a list of items that are acceptable in Lucid Manor, and even what’s not allowed. These items are usually enforced by all in the manor, with the exception of the walkie-talkies by staff members ONLY.
Please note: glass, metal or anything that can break the skin is not permitted, even through the mail to a patient. Items that are allowed are either allowed to everyone, or restricted, and there will be a note stating which. All bolded items are HOSPITAL ISSUE ONLY. No exceptions. This list is only the majority of stuff – if you have a question on what can or can’t be issued, please pm one of the staff, or poke us in the box.
