** There's a reason the wizards strictly prohibit attempting to modify a person's physical parameters - it's almost always fatal. While reality is a computer program, it's a ''fine-tuned'' computer program. A subroutine as complex as a human being only runs well if no one messes with the settings. Martin's first accidental discovery of the file results in him "growing" by 3 inches. He changes his height back, but Phillip later explains that, any higher, and his spine would've disconnected from his brain. Jimmy attempts to work around this by making small, incremental changes to change people into elves, orcs, dwarves, and hobbits. He ends up accidentally skipping a step and killing a whole village full of people, whose bodies can't cope with the sudden changes. The only changes wizards are allowed to do is make themselves nigh-immortal by stopping the aging process and making them immune to physical damage. They can still suffocate, drown, or die of thirst/hunger, though.
** This is why Martin (and several of the others) had to flee his own time. The file allows them to edit their bank account totals, and they don't think it's really a crime because there are no laws against editing reality. It turns out that banks tend to notice that kind of thing, and hacking your account and counterfeiting are both the more obvious explanations and very much illegal.

* ArtificialLimbs: After Gary's foot is cut off by Todd, an Atlantean doctor replaces it with an artificial construct that can assume one of three shapes: a regular human foot, a robot foot, or a dragon claw. Naturally, Gary never uses the first option, mainly sticking with the robot foot, occasionally switching to the claw to crush some plastic human skulls for effect. Eventually he abandons all the other options and keeps it as naked bones to fit with his Necromancer motif.

* StayInTheKitchen: This tends to be Roy's attitude towards women, since he's a 50-year-old man from TheSeventies. Naturally, he's having trouble adjusting to the more egalitarian views of TheNineties, UsefulNotes/TheOughts, and TheNewTens, where most wizards tend to be from. It's usually not a problem, since all wizards in Medieval England are male, but he always feels awkward whenever he has to interact with female time travelers like Gwen or Brit. Brit in particular is unwilling to let Roy get away with such attitude, having lived for many years in a female-dominated society. Martin explains to Gwen that Roy's attitude may not be forgivable, but it is explainable, pointing out that he just needs time to adjust. In fact, he tells Gwen that her and Brit need to continue showing their displeasure at Roy's behavior to convince him to change.
