(Thanks. I did that so we could even give an in-universe reason as to why an action that broke the rules didn't happen. And it seems it was quite easy to do. I only needed to assume two things true to pull it off. And the first (you're running a simulation) is already implied by it being considered like the Sims.

If you try to make too many characters at a time, well, you only have so much processing power. So your action would fail. And digital programs can only render physical, mathematical properties. As magic is not strictly defined, it cannot be accurately simulated. Hence, attempting to render it will result in failure. Hence why magical abilities cannot be used.

Oh, and you can't just say-"Oh, he can teleport, from point A to point B! That's clearly defined!" ...How exactly does it work? And how does that affect the space around the user? It has to be precise to the subatomic level. Sure, you can say it gives off light and transports the user, but how exactly does that process work? ...You see?

....Yeah, that isn't going to happen.

The third rule is somewhat more complex. But, it also goes by assuming a program. As we all know, "Ivysaur" refers to the species name. Not a character, a species. Naming the character the same as its species would result in an error-Things meant to be about the species being applied strictly to the character, and things about the character being considered part of the species nature.. Which would start resulting in contradictions should another of the same join in. There's a reason why you can't name two files the same name. :3

And the fourth and fifth basically say-You're not physical, so you can't be harmed, and are not bound (or enchaned, sorry) by biological functions. You don't have them. You just are. So you can't die, and, even if you wanted to, you simply couldn't do what Rule 5 forbids, as that is biological. Not something a spirit that transcends reality does. So it's not just against a roleplay's rules, doing that is literally impossible. :3)
