The Rules of Gladius

Please do not post here!



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 [post=5179911]Quickstart Guide[/post] 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 [PM=366091]Grandmaster[/PM] if you have a very special question.

I hope you enjoy your stay!

Info about Starting Positions
Starting positions:
  • Characters begin play within one of the starting boxes (1,2,3, or 4). This is randomly rolled by the Pitlord. The gladiators, however, can start at any space within their starting box, which must be mentioned in the tactics. If this information is missing in the tactic, the gladiator starts by default at locations with the symbol on the ground within his starting box.
  • A starting box does neither block LOS nor LOE; it is just a line drawn on the ground.
  • Gladiators with the ability to hover (through the feat or through perfect/good maneuverability) may begin flying at this location, though their altitude is limited to 5 feet.
  • Gladiators may begin mounted on their mounts, and holding one item in each hand.
  • Allies must be placed within the same starting box as the gladiator, and follow the same restrictions for starting positions as gladiators do. In rare cases (when the Core rules allow) allies may share the space with the gladiator at the start (such as in the case of Familiars). This requires the ally to be 2 sizes smaller than the gladiator, or vice versa.
