Novice Handbook
A guide to surviving as an Occultist novice

	Greetings, young one, and welcome to the great and noble House of the Occultists. It is our sincerest hope that you will settle well into the House and one day become a productive member, however we know that your first few steps may be a bit uncertain! This handbook aims to outline a few simple survival tips that will help you avoid any major blunders as well as to spare you from a warp or two.


The Rules:

Keep your personal bits covered.
	A basic rule, but a good one nonetheless. You represent the House in your actions. We are not a House of nudists. Any one who cannot properly dress themselves will, no doubt, receive a dirty look or two. Bodily harm may follow.

Do not rat in public rooms where others have to watch you.
	This is considered incredibly rude and often met with displeasure as no one wants to have to watch you warp a rat whilst trying to have a nice drink. You will, at best, receive one warning. Bodily harm may follow.

Read the scrolls.
	Read the damned scrolls. There is likely a scroll for whatever question you may have and it is likely that you will be directed to one as opposed to being fed an answer. When in doubt, check HHELP or HELP to see a list of helpful scrolls that you may wish to peruse.

There shall be no public lap dances or excessive displays of lewd behaviour.
	This rule is absolute. The breaking of this rule will result in bodily harm.
