First see the help file on 'Cost'. This file is a listing of the amounts of materials you need to forge a particular item.

A: Yes the commands are 'give # ore
A: Insurance takes any left over creation points and applies them towards future skills which can be earned. You can not use theses points for normal gains and they can only be applied towards newly coded skills.
A: You start creation with 3 trains. Every 4 levels you gain 1 train so spend them wisely.
A: When you die you become a ghost for 30 ticks. During the time as a ghost you can go through doors and generally explore the realm. You can safely retrieve your corpse with no fear of being killed again. Of course if you don't want to wait the 30 ticks you can resurrect at the healer for a fee.
A: Voting is a method by which you can show appreciation for your fellow role players and give them a few votes. This allows the receiver to use those votes for other abilities. Type Help invoke for more information.
A: Wraiths 'eat' by draining off your opponents. This can be done with hand to hand combat or can be done by typing 'Drain' and a target.
A: There are a couple of methods. 1- politely asking if there are any clan recruiters on. 2- You can enter the loner status by typing "Loner". If you plan on being a loner you may wish to try the 'Newclanner' command. This makes you a 'Newclanner' for approximately 80 ticks and during that time you may leave at any non-combat moment by typing 'Unclan'
A: Yes you can be looted of all your coins and a random number of items from your inventory. From 1-3 items can be stolen. This is only in affect if you are a Player killing character.
A: Well for one this is a Role Play mud so there should be a reason for your kills. You can attack 8 levels below your range and any level higher than you.
A: If you attack a player more than 8 levels higher than you current level, you become fair game to all higher level players.
A: You can obtain your Law Breaker flag for any fighting inside of a Lawful area. Areas are tagged good if you see the '[Lawful area]' in the title of the room. If you a clanner Outlaw means your pk range to be attack has double. People up to 16 levels higher than you may attack.
Outlaw also means most shops in a lawful area will not sell to you.
A: You must seek a member of Chivalry. Someone with the
A: The answer is there is no correct answer. It is whatever is your personal taste. From what I have seen the general average appears to be about 4-6k a character, with most players maxing out their creation points. However this is not to say you cannot make an effective 1k fighter or assassin.
A: Well I don't think I am allowed to put number's as Yuki wants to maintain an air of mystery around it. So let me answer your question like this. It does not take much to make draconian, the bare minimum I have heard is double digits in 2 important categories. To mature to Drake takes even more, requiring the minimum of triple digits in one important character. To mature to Dragon takes much, much more.
If you don't have the patience then the Dragon is most likely a class not for you.
A: Try the group request command. This broadcasts a message to all players in your range notifying them you wish to group with someone.
A: No easy answer but try 'Area good' 'Area Neutral' and 'Area Evil' to find areas with opposing alignments you might wish to hunt.
A: Gossip is the role playing channel relating to all character interaction. OOC should be for statements such as "Hey anyone seen Movie X?" and other such information which has no place in a fantasy setting.
A: Well many theory persist as to why Cabal does it. The current most popular one being he is actually a troll which lives under a bridge and has a satalite feed to play the mud. But yes he knows it is supposed to be out of character.
A: Absolutely. Your pet gains experience just as a normal character does and rises in levels. You can even take him or her to your guild master and have them train their stats. You can obtain a pet restring for the cost of one shard and by speaking with a friendly neighbor hood Imm.
A: Be in the same room as the pet and type 'Nofol
A: No any excess coins must be converted to gems at the local gem dealer.
A: The odds are quite slim. First you must convince one of the imms there is a need for the clan to exists. Then you must gather 5 players over the level of 25 and a good deal of jeweled eggs. You would be better off forming a player run organization such as the Healers or Aiders etc.
A: Not at this time. Although several players have there own version of reclassing which involves deletion and recreation. If you have any questions on this process see Tarik or Umbra ;)
A: A frequent problem with no solution.
A: It is generally agreed that Adamantite provides the best balance of stats. Steel provides a high boost to Dr but has to sacrifice some HR bonus. Silk is the best cloth material for magical strength and magical defense, while much luck is had with leather for Dex increasing.
A: MS stands for Magical strength. It acts like DR for you magical spells.
ED is Energy Defense and reduces the damage taken from spells
Bulk and PD both reduce the amount of damage you receive as a result of physical combat.
