The rules!
Success Instructions:
^
A rule: when the opportunity arises, you may select a Form or choose a target. A rule: the rules may change at any time. As long as you remain without a Form, you may not be attacked or attack, until the opportunity arises to choose another Form. You may give up your Form, if the opportunity arises, to gain a breathing space. A rule: when you are evenly matched against a defender, the odds are even. A rule: take an Iron Knife Token from one you defeat. A rule: if ever you give up your last Token, you will be eliminated. (A Moon League Token is enough to secure your safety.) A rule: a more serious brush with Death will remove all your tokens. A rule: you will receive three additional tokens every three days - approximately. A rule: periodically, we may publish the names of the most successful. A rule: you may seek sanctuary at the Cottage. You will not be attacked while you do so.
