+Inactive GMs are deactivated after a time to make way for new GMs.  The decision to deactivate a GM is made by Xype (the admin) and the collective input of the active GMs.

-Ensure they have the wand they need.  Power 1 should be given a wand of teleportation.  Powers 2-5 an ebony wand.  An ivory wand can be given instead of an ebony wand to restrict abilities.
+===== Step 2: Wand =====
+Give the GM the appropriate wand.  See below.
+A level 5 GM can give themselves an ebony wand using this command:  ```#give 176 99 1```
+==== Overview ====
+The table below lists the abilities given with each power level and each wand.
+* Abilities are listed in the order they are unlocked.  A level 3 GM with an ebony wand inherits all of the abilities listed in the table for the lower power levels.
+* If a GM is creating items with the prefix "weird", it means their power level isn't high enough to create that item.  The item will not function and some of them might auto destruct.  For example, you need power level 4 to be able to create items successfully.
+* The best level for a new GM to be able to be productive is 4.
