FREQUENTLY USED WORDS AND ABBREVIATIONS

Some of these words and abbreviations should really not be used in game because they do not blend with the medieval era but they've been around for so long, many use them anyway. If you are a Roleplayer, we know you won't use them ;)

AI - Abandoned Inn (In Upper Trollfang)

Amunet - A magical amulet, that allows you to broadcast your thoughts to the people that are also on the amunet at the same time. To use this, you wear it on your neck, rub it and type Think (your message) or Think To [person](your message) for private thoughts. Crystal amulets can be found on Beasts, on the bench in TSC sometimes, or you can purchase one from a particular shop or another player.

Three channels..

  • Grey - Chat channel, announcements, chatting and some still call for help on this channel too. NO selling allowed! Rub amulet

  • Black - Selling channel, For people that want to sell their goods. Rub then pull amulet.

  • White - Rescue channel, call for help here. Rub and turn amulet.

[no] AS - Attack Strength (How hard you can hit your opponent)

Bless - This refers to a Blessed Weapon. You will need a blessed weapon to fight the undead. You can get a Bless by kindly asking a Cleric or a member of Voln to bless your weapon for you. The older the character, the more swings you get out of it.

You do not need any deeds until you are level three, but I would suggest getting them with the first gem you find.
