Classes, skills, and guilds:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
When you enter the game the first time, you are asked to select a class; either
|
||
|
|
THIEF, WARRIOR, CLERIC, or MAGIC user. Characters belonging to each of these
|
||
|
|
classes have their own qualities, abilities, and handicaps.
|
||
|
|
It is not unusual that people belonging to different classes, by joining
|
||
|
|
their efforts and combining their skills, find their chances of survival and
|
||
|
|
progress greatly improved. Indeed, a team consisting of members from all four
|
||
|
|
classes can be an extremely powerful unit; capable of opening doors without
|
||
|
|
keys, creating food supplies out of nothing, and destroying an enemy in
|
||
|
|
several different ways. It is not advisable for a new player to offend the
|
||
|
|
members of such a group!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order to learn the tricks of your specific trade, you need to find your
|
||
|
|
GUILD, which may take a little exploring. However, you can usually find a
|
||
|
|
guild in any reasonably populated city. Once you've found it, you need to
|
||
|
|
look up your guildmaster and PRACTICE.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Equipment:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
It is never wise to travel without the proper equipment. You may purchase this
|
||
|
|
in the SHOPS found in any larger city, or you may be lucky and find some left
|
||
|
|
around, dropped by someone who doesn't need it anymore, for one reason or
|
||
|
|
another.

About Staying Fit - Eating and Drinking:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
At one time or another, you'll see the message "You are hungry". This means
|
||
|
|
that it's time to find something edible before too long. People don't starve
|
||
|
|
to death in this world, so have no fear. However, when you are hungry, you do
|
||
|
|
not build up lost energy, so eventually you'll be unable to do anything but sit
|
||
|
|
around and feel sorry for yourself, until someone comes by. Then, you can only
|
||
|
|
hope that it's a benevolent person, rather than a greedy thief or a warrior
|
||
|
|
lusting for blood.
