Interacting

Our world is rich with detail and unexpected surprises. To look at a person or item, simply type <look person's name> or <look name of item>. For example, <look Dyannah> will show you what she looks like physically as well as all her visible items (don't be surprised if you see scary stuff when you gaze upon her!). <look table> will give you a description of the table. You can also look on, in, behind and under certain objects. <look on table> will show you anything that is on the table, and <look in backpack> will show you what is in the backpack, etc.

Using the pronoun "my" will eliminate a good bit of confusion. If you have a pouch on your body and there is another lying on the ground, <look in pouch> will default to the one on the ground, but <look in my pouch> will let you look in yours.

If you have more than one pouch, <look in my pouch> will show you the contents of your first pouch, however to see the contents of a second pouch, you need to type <look in my other pouch> or <look in my red pouch> or <look in my second pouch>.

Similarly, when there is more than one of the same type of item in a room, you need to specify with either a number or an adjective, which one of the items you wish to examine. <look on table> will show you the contents of the first table, <look on other table> will show the contents of the second table as will <look on second table>. If there are more than two of the same items in the room, and they use descriptive adjectives, you can use them like this: <look at red door>, <look at green door>, etc.

You can also interact with items in a room with a surprising degree of realism. <look> at the things you see in the room. Many can be manipulated in some way. Try to interact with verbs like <touch>, <drink>, <lean>, <get>, <kick>, and so forth. All chairs can be sat on, you can lie on all beds and, in fact, you can interact with all the furniture in the world of Thrael either through lie, sit, stand, or kneel.

To get a list of verbs, type verblist. Just typing adverbs will tell you all the ones we have in game. Verbs that work with hidden exits such as holes and ladders and anything not listed in obvious exits are go, climb, jump and swim.

Many of the mobs throughout the world can be asked questions, pick the right questions and they can be helpful, the wrong will get you answers as well, but not what you seek. Many are trainers as well, so you might want to see if they can help you. Lecturers who will teach spells are found in special areas, your search for them will add to the fun of your gaming experience, but once found they will instruct you in how your spells work. You need to listen to the entire lecture to learn.

To find players in game, you might want to look in inns and pubs, our local lushes can usually be found there.

Have fun and enjoy the wonderful world of Thrael.
