The penalty for this action may range from probation to exile. Though it is against the fundamental philosophy of Nightmare to legislate such mortal matters from the administrative level, allowing mortals to handle the problem of player killing proved unmanageable due to the fact that a few people took it beyond the gaming spirit of Nightmare abd made player killing a tool of personal malice. Limited player killing is allows in regions marked as arenas. They may be single rooms or entire areas.
