fighting murder
As all good games go, this one involves a lot of fighting. Most of this will take place with what we call "mobs", or "non-player characters" (NPCs). (The word "mob" is short for "mobile", it's a MUD thing, just leave it at that.) Some fighting takes place between players, in PKILL or WARFARE. (There are helpfiles for each of these, refer to them for more information.) In order to kill another player, you cannot use the 'kill' command directly (that would make it really easy to accidentally kill an innocent person). Instead, there is a command used specifically when targetting a player: Syntax: murder <player> This will initiate your battle with a real, living foe. Several types of attack skills may also be used to initiate combat, including area attack spells -- which may cause inadvertant battles, so use with caution!
