A bed of reality is used for saving your game. Whenever you want to leave the game, or just save in a particular town, apply (press 'a') on a bed of reality, like the one at the end of this hallway.
|
||||
A Bed To Reality is used as a natural exit from the game. When your character restarts the game again, they will start at the same place they (press the 'a' key) applied the last Bed To Reality. It's also a way for you to (re)set your character's "home base", if you prefer to start/save in a particular town, like the one at the end of this hallway.
|
||||
|
||||
The next time you login, your player will start from that bed's location, with all the inventory items you had when you saved. Also, if your player ever dies, you will be returned to the location of the last bed of reality you used.
|
||||
|
||||
You may use this one now, and then continue on after logging back in.

You may use this one now, and then continue on after logging back in. Your NEXT mission will be to exit this map and find the Wanderer's Inn located in the city of Scorn. This is where you want to use a Bed To Reality to make sure it's your next starting place for your character.

To enter a shop, step on the shop mat. This will transport you to the inside. To exit, simply step on the inside mat. To sell items, drop them on the shop floor. To buy items, simply pick up what you want and leave. The cost of the items will be taken from your inventory. If you don't have enough money to pay your bill, you won't be allowed to leave, and you will have to drop enough of the items you picked up until you can afford what you're holding.

You may enter this shop and look around, and buy something if you have the money. When you're in the shop, clicking on an item in your inventory will tell you how much the shop will pay you for it. Standing over an item on the shop floor and examining it (press 'e' or type 'examine) will tell you that item's price.

WARNING: Be very careful not to drop anything you aren't sure you want to sell! Once dropped, an item is sold and belongs to the shop, and the price for buying it back may be many times what you sold it for. Check your client's documentation on "locking" items for instructions on how to lock your important items so you can't accidentally drop them.

Altars have many different uses. Some altars are consecrated to a particular god. Do not pray over these altars unless you wish to worship that god! (More on gods later.) Altars can also cast spells and perform other actions if you place the correct sacrifice on them.

The altar to your east is an "altar of detect magic." Dropping money on it will cause it to cast detect magic on all the items in your inventory. (Make sure you pick up your change.) To drop money, right-click on it in your inventory while standing on the altar.

Magic items are often worth more than identical non-magic items, so detect magic can help you decide which ones to sell and which ones to identify or keep.

Many NPC have useful information, but they will only tell you about it if you ask about the right things. Saying "hello" is a good start. If the NPC replies, look for words in his reply that might be important, and ask about them. For example, if he says, "Hello, do you have any food?" ask him about food ('say food), and he may say something else in response to that. Saying words like quest, key, treasure, and other things you're interested in may start up very interesting conversations!

By the way, it's a good idea to always check for traps before trying to open a door. Do this with the command ('use_skill find traps), which is often bound to the 's' key (for Search). If you find a trap, you can try to disarm it with ('use_skill disarm traps). You can only find and disable traps if you have those skills.
