| AbilityDescription=The art of sketching other creatures and players is a very powerful one, as it allows you to bind their essence to the drawing, and later use it under your control to attack others.
 
Initially, you are only capable of sketching mobiles. As you study more about Artistry, you will learn how to sketch players of various magickal professions, and to utilise the sketches against your foes. Note that you can sketch mobs of a given type ('mage', 'runeguard', etc) to obtain profession sketches. Abilities of these sketches are described in their own AB help files.
 
To use a sketch, you can tear it out of your sketchbook. Once torn, you can then use the SKETCHLINK command to link yourself to the sketch and control it. Sketch commands use their own balance, the length of which differs based on the command - some are more complicated than others. Most sketch abilities are slower than the corresponding player ones, though.
 
You can have a maximum of three sketches active at once. If you wish to use more, you can insert some of the currently active sketches back into your sketchbook. Additionally, the magickal energy of each sketch is limited - after certain amount of attacks, the sketch will weaken too much and dissolve.
 
If you get separated from your sketches, you can use CALL SKETCHES to summon them back to your side.
 
When a sketch runs out of attacks, a new one will automatically replace it, should you have any still in your sketchbook. Only sketches with exactly the same profession and ink color combination will be used.
 
Sketches can be filled with inks for additional effects - the relevant AB help files describe the usage of each.
 
Sketches of mobiles have the following abilities:
 
SKETCHLINK BATTER <target>
- Causes damage to the target.
 
SKETCHLINK LOCATE <target>
- Attempts to seek the direction in which the target can be found. The sketch can only locate players within the same area.
