Rules in House of Night Chicago.
Students must follow every rule. Remember, adult vampyres just know things so it's hard to break a rule and not get caught. Rules straight from the House of Night main site.
Rule #1:
If you’ve been Marked by a Tracker, night has chosen thee. You will go through the Change and turn into a vampyre. However, if your body rejects the Change, you die.
Rule #2:
If you are Marked, you must leave your home and move into the House of Night school, where you will take your place as a fledgling and live for four years.
Rule #3:
At the House of Night School, classes begin at 8pm and end at 3am. The gym is open until dawn.
Rule #4:
You can never be far from an adult Vampyre for long. And it’s not like you’ll turn into a pumpkin. It’s a much bigger deal than that.
Rule #5:
Formal rituals are held at Nyx’s Temple twice a week. At the ceremony’s commencement, turn to the east, south, west and north to summon (in order) air, fire, water and earth.
Rule #6:
If one of the cats at the school chooses you, you will belong to him or her. Not the other way around.
Rule #7:
Every High Priestess is given an affinity, or special powers, by the Goddess.
Rule #8:
If you ever leave school grounds, you cannot wear any part of your uniform (which is primarily basic black) and must conceal all tattoo markings.
Rule #9:
Here at the House of Night school, there are no lockers. You will have cabinets in your homeroom. If someone steals something, the vamps will know it. As will Nyx.
ADDED:
Bowing: Vampyres bow and cross their fists over their hearts as a sign of respect. This is how students greet their High Priestess of the school. It is also how students and other vampyres may show respect to those of higher authority.
Greeting: Vampyres greet and show respect by shaking forearms, a custom acquired from the Amazons. Vampyres never handshake as it is not respectful.
