EAT
This command may be used to consume food items, herbs and
to roleplay.
|
EAT <FOOD ITEM>
ex.
>eat cookie
|
You take a bite of your apple cookie.
MMMMM mmmmm GOOOD!
(Messaging when eating food items will vary.)
|
Eratika takes a bite of her apple cookie.
|
EAT <ITEM>
ex.
>eat sealed message
|
Having suddenly decided that you are a secret agent of some
sort and are about to be captured, you hastily stuff the message
in your mouth and chew it up. It tastes rather dry and without
flavor, you manage to choke it all down and then suddenly
realize that this is going to be just a little hard to explain.
(Messaging when eating different types of items will vary.)

Elleth suddenly stuffs a bit of folded parchment in her mouth
and chews it up rapidly as if fearing some enemy will snatch
it away and read it.
|

ex.
>eat acantha leaf
|

your acantha leaf.

You have only about 8 bites left. |

of her acantha leaf.

ENCUMBRANCE
This command is used to estimate how encumbered you may be.
The more encumbered you may be, the longer roundtime penalties
may be applied for specific actions (for instance ATTACKing
and STANDing.) This command
may also be used to determine the encumbrance of a dead character
which may need to be DRAGged
to safety.
|
ENCUMBRANCE
|
Level 0 (unemcumbered):
You adjust your gear comfortably and feel satisfied that
you are not encumbered enough to notice.
Level 1:
Your load is a bit heavy, but you feel confident that the
weight is not affecting your actions very much.
Level 2:
You feel somewhat weighed down, but can still move well, though
you realize you are not as quick as you could be.
Level 3:
You can't quite get comfortable, and are definitely feeling
the effects of the weight you are carrying. Lightening your
load could help.
Level 4:
Your shoulders are beginning to sag under the weight of your
gear, and your reactions are not very fast. Time to unload,
perhaps?
Level 5:
The weight you are carrying is giving you a backache. Perhaps
you should unload some things soon before you actually have
to move fast.
Level 6:
You are beginning to stoop under the load you are carrying,
and your reactions are slow. Hope you don't have to dodge
anything.
Level 7:
It is difficult to move quickly at all, and your legs are
strained with the effort of carrying all that stuff. You can
probably manage to trudge around town, but hunting would be
treacherous.
Level 8:
You find it nearly impossible to make any fast moves, and
you ache all over from the load you are trying to haul around.
Hope you're in a safe place.
Level 9:
You are so weighed down with junk you can barely move. You
might be able to make it to your locker by summoning all your
strength and willpower, but surviving much else would not
be a good bet.

Eratika checks her
equipment, adjusting and rearranging her gear. |

Landing.

ex.
>engrave shield
|
The engraver whispers,
"That will be 750 silvers, please." You dig deep and
fork over the cash.
The engraver takes your shield over to his workbench and
busies himself with his exacting task. In a matter of moments,
the complex coat of arms of GameMaster's House is inscribed.
With a proud flourish, he presents you with his latest handiwork.

reason goes sour.
