##At no time will the nature of the items in your area be revealed to mortals. Make them find out what they do themselves.
##At no time will you collect items in your area and distribute them to mortals. Make them find where they are themselves.
##At no time will you give information on mob levels, traps, tricks, or any other feature of the area to mortals. Make them discover it for themselves.
##At no time will any other confidential information regarding your area, or any area or feature of TFC, be given out to mortals.
##For the first two months of your area's existence on the LIVE server of TFC you will not lead adventurers in your area.
##Violation of these rules (a subset of the wizrules) will be grounds for disciplinary action, up to and including deletion of characters.
