Buenos diaz amigos.
For some time I have conducted operations together with BAF within Bretonia and her borders. For almost just as long I have been reccomended to apply for citizenship.
Not only would it allow me to gain full rights as a citizen, but I would no longer be to concern for the Bretonian goverment and monarchy. I am sure the Queen herself is quite sceptical to an outcast aiding her proud soliders.
As per date, I hereby apply for full citizenship within Bretonia and her borders. I also agree to be treated like a civillian solider, with the rights to defend Bretonia, her borders and aid in the war within the Tau's.

Name: Darth Sidious
Gender: Male
Date of birth: Unknown, biological tests taken before cardamine exposure suggest the current age to be 29 years.
Birthplace: Planet Leeds
General description:
Cybernetic legs, can run faster then normal humans
Increased reflexes and intelligence due to cardamine exposure, addicted to said substance.
History:
A lowlife pickpocket'eer from Leeds. Was known in the criminal underworld as the thief with the invisible hand. At some unknown point I was taken by the LSF for a little experiment. My memory of this is mostly fragmental and incosistent. All I know for sure is that they changed my legs for these shiny cybernetic ones.
Something attacked the station I was held captive on, and after escaping I somehow got in contact with the Outcasts. Since that day, I have lived and worked at planet Malta.
<~Closing personell file~>
I hope you will concider this application like any other. After all, I'm just returning home.

Good Morning Mister Sidious,
Your application is currently being reviewed by the foreign office...
I do how ever have a few questions for you.
1. Being born within the borders of Bretonia, such as on Planet Leeds, automatically grants citizenship. Did you previously renounce your Bretonian citizenship, or have it revoked for any reason? If not, then you remain a citizen still.
2. Upon your return to Bretonia as a citizen are you ready to face judgement by court on any and all charges that may or may not be outstanding prior to your cutting of ties with the Sovereign Kingdom of Bretonia.
3. You will be subject to standard medical tests and scrutiny by medical personal. Will you permit said medical examination.
4. Such personal habbits that are quite distasteful and illicit within Bretonian Sovereign space such as the Cardamine substance abuse will need to be ceased immediately. Are you able to comply with this should you hold such personal habbits or other habbits that maybe deemed unbefitting of a Bretonian citizen? There are however licensed phamacies whom dispense cardamine for medicinal use, such as sustaining the life of someone who's dependent on it for survival should you require such facilities an apropriate prescription will be required. The law however will not bend for anyone caught drug dealing and fines will ensue.
5. Are you willing to endorse and uphold All Bretonian laws and the Bretonian way of life.
6. Will you willingly cut all ties to your current residing realm and its governing body to accept the rule of Her Majesty and the entities to which she has empowered to govern?
7. Are you willing to submit credible referee's that may recommend you or argue positively in your favour.
Indeed I shall leave this matter in the capable hands of one of the Visa Officers unless issue should arise.
Such questions how ever are food for thought in your decision to apply for citizenship... It is a time of war and know you shall receive no leniency, exemptions or pardons though you shall be judged fairly.

Good day to you
<~Re: Lady Lafiels terms~>
Well mi'lady there is some issues here. Some issues that you seem to be unaware of.
To answer your Terms, as i choose to call them...
1: As far as I know, I've been gone from Bretonia for over 29 years. There is no records of what happend before 798 A.S and my captivity. If this is true, then I have a citizenship right? I dont know my old name, I don't know anything but being born on Leeds and being captured.
2: There is no outstanding convictions or charges.
3: Yes
4: Well, i would consider 29 years of exposure makes me pretty much reliable on such a medical arrangement.
5: Once born on Leeds, I have yet to forget the pleasure of a good cup'o tea with scones and biscuits.
6: How can i cut the ties of those who saved my life? Gave me a new start? Made me who I am? That is simply impossible, the Maltese people is rooted within my heart. Though I will obey her majesty the Queen, I shall also obey the Outcast goverment. In times were conflict of intrest arises, I shall simply stand neutral.
7: I know of two officers within the Armed Forces that will comfirm my allegience
<~Message~> Ladies and Gentlemen, I know how you cheerish beurocracy, but I however, do not. I like things fast and efficient, now if you excuse me, I'd like to have my files edited, stamped, signed and issued as soon as possible. After all, telling the "I'll have the papers soon" excuse will just work that many times.

Greetings,
Since I know Mr Sidious for a few weeks now and as such was named as a referee, here is my opinion about his application.
First, up to now he frequently showed the will to give the BAF a hand, a thing he did either with our approval, or without. The later is somewhat worrying, but I think he's genuinely concerned with the safety of the Kingdom. To some extents, I consider him as a careful vigilante or homegrown merc.
Second, Mr Sidious abids our laws, customs, and is aware of the do and don't bound to his foreigner status, as well as things such as the terrific 812-813 season of the Cambridge's Lions or the flaws of our voting system, which is more than many of the foreign traders around do.
To my opinion, Mr Sidious is patriotic enough to be eligible for immigration, and for this purpose I'm pretty sure he would drop his previous nationality if needed. Considering this, I support his application and I hope the MI5 investigation to come will confirm my present statement.

I am sorry if you seem to be under any miss impression that you were dealing with me directly I am rather busy, I just happened to come across your case and out of curiousity posed you those questions indeed for not only was it an interest to me such questions would give you apropriate thoughts to what you should expect.
However in recent days I have decided to take a more direct role in this matter as it is a rather interesting one.
First and foremost you will be silent! At once. No brusque or discourteous words spoken from your tongue will be tolerated.
Looking over your case as there is no proof of birth upon Leeds and due to your inability to bring forth proof you will not be elligble fo repatriation and shall be dealt with as any other person coming into Bretonia.
Bretonian acknowledges the Maltese government however we have not opened our arms to permit Dual citizenship between both Sovereign people. The Kingdom of Bretonia remains vigilant on its stance that her people shall be loyal to her there shall be no conflict of interest as you are unwilling to relinquish your ties to the Maltese government and the outcasts. I hereby Deny you Citizenship Sidious you will not be extended the protection and rights awarded to those of a Citizen of the Kingdom of Bretonnia.
Your colourful nature reflects you in a very poor light though indeed I have heard good deeds of your efforts in the assistance of the armed forces and will here by offer you something else.
I offer unto you permanent residency within our realm. You will be subject to our laws as all people within the realm. Due to your colourful nature you shall be under surveillance and monitored until we deem otherwise and are satisfied that you are no malcontent against the sovereign nation an her laws nor within our realm bearing malevolence. We may choose to extend a hand of citizenship to you after period of time of our choosing but such privilege is of our discretion.
