Getting started[]
Read sign returns an error message, as does look at sign; look reads it. One can look in a container. Examine returns both description and contents if it is a container. Newbie equipment is bought, gratis, in a store after list. There is a newbie channel. "Get sandals shelf" works; "get sandals from shelf" returns an error message. The command "hint" will toggle the annoying Hint messages. Rent is deprecated, you need only save and quit.
Death[]
On death you are given the affect godly protection which allows you to get to and retrieve equipment from your corpse. Affects is a command on Dawn of Ages which gives information about spells and skills which affect you.
