Table

Tables are semi-private rooms, usually located in inns and CHE structures. The main feature of a table is that it will limit who can access the room via an INVITE system. A character cannot enter the table room until invited by one of the characters already in the table room (entire groups can also be invited). Tables are both sanctuaries and standard nodes.

In terms of Simutronics policy, tables are considered non-private and are subject to monitoring.

All table rooms have a physical table in the room description and a number of verbs will interact with it. Most of these are applicable only while sitting down.
