When setting player's height and weight values, please refer to this table
as a guideline. In the case of a scrawny kobold one could drop the weight
by 10 to 30. Unless it's an exceptional history and reason, try and remain
close to these values. No 10'2" goblins please.
`#`R**`^ `#`BReminder:`^ IMM's reserve the right to change any and all heights
and weights they deem not acceptable; so, stay within the above limits.

Note: Exotic weapons which are usable by mages are
restricted to read damage at -5.
Please also note that weapons do NOT have the allowable
extra modifiers for other items. The "free" modifiers for
items like armour, do not apply for weapons. Weapons do not
have "free" modifiers. To make a weapon sharp, its damage
level must be reduced by 4. There are exceptions to this
rule and an appendix exists. But unless cleared by realm
to apply exceptions to this rule, builders are strongly
recommended to follow the above guidelines.
Mob Wealth:
The MAXIMUM limit is to be 20 x mob level.
Eg. A lvl 50 mob should not have more than 1000 set at its
wealth. Unless there is special reason, like only one of
such a mob exists in the area or its an exceptionally rich
rob. Even then, this should be carefully controlled to
maintain economic balance in the game. Typical mobs should
not even be near 20 x lvl.
Mob Mana:
An average of 100 + 10xlevel for the mana value of mobs.
This is highly susceptive to change in accordance to the
type of mob. Mage mobs to have the above recommended values.
Warrior types to have 50%. Barbarian types (hatred to magic
type mobs) to have as low as even 10%. Use your discretion
for anything inbetween.
