Crown Hotel

A hotel in New York City, NY

The **Crown Hotel** (also known as **The Crown** or **The Hub** by hitmen) is a chain of hotels located across the globe. On the surface, it is an ordinary hotel run by civilian staff. However, unbeknownst to the public, the hotel chain is secretly a haven for a network of hitmen and cyberterrorists loyal to the Babylon Coalition, who use the hotel chain as a shelter/safehouse during missions overseas. This is so the hitmen and cyber-terrorists maintain the illusion of being "tourists" so they won't cause a panic among the local populace of the countries they operate in.

## Rules

The leaders of the assassin syndicate that owns the hotel chain have a strict "honor code" that assassins must adhere by. These rules are enforced with strict penalties for violation, which usually involve either excommunication, the execution of the offender, or both, depending on the severity of the violation. A breakdown of the rules can be found below:

* No killing shall be done on hotel grounds. This includes carrying out assassinations on other people inside the hotel. Violations of this rule shall result in revokation of membership and/or death. Note that this rule was later amended to say that only *offensive*attacks are forbidden. If a guest at the hotel is able to prove that the killing was in self-defense, then it won't count against them.
* Blood oaths shall be upheld regardless of the circumstances. Violations include abandoning the oath (turning one's back on the oath) or killing the one who made the oath. Violations shall result in revokation of membership and/or death.
* No killing of hotel guests (same as the first rule, except aimed at hotel guests instead of other hitmen): Note that this rule has caused controversy due to many hitmen fearing that regular tourists may be suspicious and expose their true identities.
* For cyberterrorists only; Cyberterrorists are forbidden from using the hotel's online services as "target practice" for their hacking abilities. Violations shall result in revokation of membership and/or death.

## Services

The Crown Hotel chain provides both services for regular guests (as part of its disguise as a hotel chain) and services exclusively for hitmen. These include:

* Room Service
* Weapons and ammo-Assassins are provided with the firearms and ammunition they need to kill their targets. This service is disguised as a bar/restaurant.
* Fashion and body armor-A professional team of tailors and seamstresses crafts out body armor disguised as ordinary clothing for their hitmen/hitwomen.
* Mapmaking-Trained cartographers create maps of areas the hitmen's targets are located.
* Transportation-Disguised as a regular taxi service
* Barber/hairdresser.
