Please keep in mind, the festival and security staff will assume all drawn weapons or props are functional, and will act accordingly. In the event of a mass shooting, you should immediately drop and abandon your props to prevent confusion.<\/p><\/li><li dir=\"ltr\"><p dir=\"ltr\">Props of any weapons without sheathes (e.g., bow) that are a part of the costume may be worn if properly secured to the costume but must never be drawn (see rule above on what security staff assumes about drawn weapons).<\/p><\/li><li dir=\"ltr\"><p dir=\"ltr\">Props must NOT be made of heavy material.
