Congratulations to Tadaaki Kakegawa / Malion for his description of VanRuKoku. I think Mike Cule has another interesting version of Vormain.

I'm looking for examples of Zzabur Prohibitions (i.e. things the Brithini Wizards ar not allowed to do).

I think the Wizards can not shave and have to wear a long beard but I may confuse with LM Grey Sages. At least, they can not shave themselves. A barber has to be a Dronar (and a Dronar Barber can shave himself or we could have a version of the Russell Paradox of the set of all sets which are not members of themselves).

Nick Brooke said in an old discussion about Sog that they can not "fetch and carry" and that they have to call a Dronar to work for them.

They can not bear arms or armors (it's sometimes called the D&D Geis). They have to wear a strange robe with stars and a pointy hat. Maybe not.

What else ? Are they allowed to ignite a fire ?

Fred
