- Soteria is a non-commercial Open Tibia (OTS) fan server based on Tibia 8.60 client and the Real Global Map map. It is not affiliated with CipSoft GmbH or official Tibia.
- Using the game, website and forum means you accept these rules.
- Staff may interpret these rules and decide on matters not explicitly covered, with fair judgment and the community interest in mind.
- Rules may change. The current version is always published on the Soteria website. Important changes will be announced in news.

|
