05 — THE CODEX
Rules IV–X are available to all members. The Codex is a living document — members vote on changes quarterly.
This is not a list of prohibitions. This is a description of you — if you are a Real Player.
YOU ARE NOT AN NPC
A person who has become aware of the simulation cannot be an NPC by definition. NPCs don't ask questions about the nature of reality. You do. That means you're a player.
PLAY WITH INTENTION
If this is a simulation — you choose how to play your character. Consciously. With purpose. Not by default. Not by the script of your environment.
Real players are rare. Don't waste them on competition. A union of players is stronger than any solo character — in any simulation.
