Current rules

Eligibility

According to the Act of Succession, only High Queen Darlene's legitimate descendants brought up in Atmora are presently entitled to succeed. A person loses his or her succession rights and deprives his or her descendants of their succession rights if he or she:

  • is not brought up in the Atmoran Empire
  • belongs to any religious faith
  • marries without the consent of the Sovereign
  • ascends the throne of another state by election, inheritance or marriage without the consent of the monarch and the Imperial Parliament

Anyone ineligible to succeed is treated as if they were "dead". That individual's descendants are not also disqualified, unless they are personally ineligible.

Treason

Under the Treason Act 1812 and the Treason (Lieseltania) Act 1703, it is treason to "endeavour to deprive or hinder any person who shall be the next in succession to the crown ... from succeeding ... to the imperial crown of this realm".
