MINISTERIAL SECURITY AND defences |  |
Heightened and amended Ministerial Security Protocols and Defences; adapted and implemented as counter-terrorist measures in response to the Ministerial Atrium bombings conducted by Casper Carrow.
In light of the act of terrorism conducted within the walls of the Ministry Inner Atrium on the night of July 20th 20XX by Casper Carrow, the Ministry for Magic has revised the current security and defensive protocol in place and made the following amendments.
- Officers of the Law Enforcement (NPC) are on hand at every entrance into the Ministry of Magic, these officers will conduct thorough searches on all visitors entering the Ministry of Magic using Revelio & Specialis Revelio. All prohibited items (e.g. unauthorised potions / items) will be temporarily seized until the visitor exits the Ministry of Magic. All prohibited items (e.g. potions / items that could be possible to inflict harm onto another) will be confiscated.
- Officers of the Law Enforcement (NPC) will perform an ID check upon all visitors to the Ministry of Magic before issuing them with a visitors pass for the duration of their visit. Any visitor who does not have a valid form of ID will be denied entry into the Ministry. A member of the Law Enforcement may ask any visitor within the Ministry of Magic to see their visitors pass to ensure their presence is documented and valid. Only those without any outstanding criminal charges may be able to enter the Ministry of Magic.
- Officers of the Law Enforcement (NPC) will temporarily seize the wand of all visitors into the Ministry of Magic until their visit is over.
Upon damage being inflicted to the Ministry of Magic or its defences the following will come into action:
- An alarm will be raised, alerting Law Enforcement to a potential security breach within the Ministerial Building.
- Upon the alarm being sounded; steel bars enchanted with the Unbreakable Charm (15 LTB) will drop across all exits.
- The International Floo Network will instantly be shut down to disallow entry and exit into the Ministry; with the same bars forming across all Floo Network Fireplaces.
- Ministerial Knights will be activated (20 LTB per Knight) to defend the Ministry of Magic against any further harm.
Across the entirety of the Ministry are the following defences (all visitors who would not pass an ID check would be required to breach the following defences before gaining entry into the Ministry of Magic):
- Repello Muggletum (25 LTB)
- Protego Totalum (200 LTB)
- Salvio Hexia (200 LTB)
- Protego Horribilis (200 LTB)
- Fianto Duri (150 LTB)
- Non Decessio (100 LTB)
- Non Decessio Duo (100 LTB
Across the entirety of the Ministry are the following defences when damage is inflicted to the Ministry of Magic or any of the above defences:
- Piertotum Locomotor (20 LTB per knight)
- Commitimor (only alerts MLE to a security risk across the Ministry; no specifics given unless triggered in a specific department)
Department Specific Defences:
- All departments of the Ministry of Magic are protected with the same defences as above but each fitted with their own personal Commitimor enchantment, designed to alert Law Enforcement to security breaches in specific departments.
- Each department is staffed with their own receptionist who is aware of which members of staff have clearance to their specific department. Upon being hired, an individual will be given clearance to access their own department and will only be allowed to enter another department should it be for an official meeting or approved by the respective Head of Department or Cabinet.
- Sensitive documentation of each department (e.g. criminal records, wanted records, logbooks and Being registration files, ect) require specific clearance granted by each respective Head of Department. The Minister of Cabinet may request to view these documents at any moment but the Head of Department reserves the right to redact certain areas of sensitivity (e.g. names of registered Beings or names of victims of crimes ect.).
- Each department have their own respective cleaning staff with authorised clearance to enter that department, they are searched upon exit to ensure no sensitive information has been taken.
- The Department of Mysteries is fitted with the Thieves Downfall which every individual passing through into that department must pass through in order to gain entry.
OOC:
- A visitor in this scenario constitutes any individual who is not under Ministerial Employment.
- Defences can be negotiated with the Minister for Magic / Senior Staff for the sake of storylines.
- Breakouts must be discussed with the Chief Auror & Warlock OOC.
- These defences the present and most accurate defences of the Ministry, replacing the prior defences outlined ( here ).
