The Rules of Gladius
Welcome traveller! Welcome to the Library of Gladiosian Law. From whereever you came, here, you will find all rules and laws that govern the City of Gladius, and its vincinity. The Library has three major sections (olive, teal, darkorchid), and the books of each section are illuminated in the respective color. You are well advised to read through them all sooner or later, or at least browse through some of the sections with the teal-glowing aura on the books. Ah, I see, you are in a hurry. We also have the
Quickstart Guide which very briefly explains everything you need to know to start in this city. If you have still questions afterwards, you can ask any of our regulars over in the Core Coliseum Tavern, or ask our Gamemaster (TelinArtho) if you have a very special question.
I hope you enjoy your stay!
