Animal Training Skill
The skill of animal training allows an adventurer to do more then just
befriend animals, but to actually train them. A trained animal will obey
orders, gain experience and levels, and rent out with you at the inns. As a
pet advances in levels, it will gain training sessions that you can use to
increase its attributes. While it takes only a small amount of skill to train
an animal, The success rate of increasing its attribute depends more heavily
on your skill percentage. Following are the attributes you can improve:
Usage:
train <befriended animal>
train <trained pet> <stat to train> (ex: train wolf str)
train (shows pets stats)
str - Strength, This will increase its damage potential among other
things.
int - Intelligence, This will increase your pet's resistance to magic
and its ability to learn.
wis - Wisdom, A pet with a higher wisdom can gain more training
sessions per level.
con - Constitution, This will affect how many hit points your pet
gains when it advances a level.
dex - Dexterity, A higher dexterity will allow a pet to avoid attacks
more effectively.
hit* - Hit Roll, Increases your pets chance to hit in combat.
hp* - Hit Points, This will allow your pet to take more damage before
dying.
ac* - Armor Class, Teaches your pet to avoid attacks, and take less
damage from the ones they can't.
dam** - Damage Roll, Increases your pet's damage potential
* --> requires 2 training sessions.
** --> requires 3 training sessions.
Some Notes:
- Trained Pets do not hold on to equipment when they rent.
- If you have annlev turned on, your pet's level gains will be
announced along with your own.
- You may only have ONE trained pet at a time, and it won't
affect the number of befriended animals you may have.
- Make sure your pet is at the inn with you when you rent, or
you'll lose it!

Animate Dead Spell
Mana Cost : 35 Target : corpse
Save : none
Effect : NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD -- The Prequel
This spell imbues a corpse with unholy energy, causing it to rise up and walk
once again. Each zombie created this way will follow the orders of the caster
for the duration of the spell, at which time the caster's controlling force
weakens and the animated dead lose all direction. The zombies are imbued with
unholy force proportionate to the level of the caster, but even though they
may be able to withstand large amounts of damage, zombies are poor fighters.

Arcana Skill
This skill is a measure of your basic magickal knowledge. It is based on your
INTELLIGENCE attribute, since intelligence determines how good your logic,
reasoning, and memory abilities are. The magic that pervades the world obeys
certain fundamental laws, though those laws are incredibly complex. Your
arcana skill is a measure of how well you understand those basic laws. This
skill affects the power of all arcana-based spells, though it has no other
powers of its own. However, this skill is necessary to all mage-type skills
and spells. The better your arcana skill, the better you are able to use the
building blocks of magic to make complex and powerful spells.

Bash Skill
The successfulness of your bash depends upon how well you are learned in the
skill. To bash someone is to attempt to 'knock' that person over. If you
succeed you will inflict minor damage, and cause the victim to fall on its
rear. The victim will be unable to issue any commands for 2 rounds of
violence. If you miss you loose your balance and fall. A bash makes you unable
to type commands for 2 rounds of violence. If your opponent is already down
and you attempt a bash, there's a pretty good chance you'll trip over them :)
Usage:
bash <victim>
Example:
bash <?= %randPlayer() ?>
