Difference between revisions of "Warding Abilities"

  BLOCK <direction>

  UNBLOCK

A slower, more damaging attack than the tipslash. In addition if you have targetted a bodypart, you will follow up the initial strike with an additional hit.

== Barge ==

  BARGE <target> <direction>

If your target is an adjacent location, you may rush quickly into his/her room, and shove him with you into the specified direction.

== Battlecry ==

  BATTLECRY <player>

Your battle cry is so powerful that when directed against another, it will blast him to the ground, provided he is not deaf. If the target is already on the ground, the attack will stun him.

== Highjump ==

  HIGHJUMP

  SWING DOWN

== Vault ==

  VAULT <direction>

Using the haft of your weapon, you can vault through the air over obstructions that would block your movement.

== Dive ==

  DIVE DOWN

  DIVE AT <player>

If you are in the trees, you can dive down from them. Optionally, you can dive down at a specific target, striking them with your body and knocking them to the ground with you.

== Prod ==

  PROD TREES

Using your weapon, you can vigorously prod the trees around you, knocking down any who might be attempting to hide in them.

== Quickjab ==

  QUICKJAB/QJAB <target> [toxin 1] [toxin 2]

When used against another player, you can optionally specify two toxins to envenom the weapon with before attacking. This requires you to have vials of those toxins and the Envenom ability.

== Lunge ==

Starting off in an adjacent location, you may lunge towards your target, scoring a blow with the tip of your weapon.

  ARROWCATCH ON|OFF

  BUTTSTRIKE|BSTRIKE <target>

This ability will cause significant head damage to your target.

== Deflect ==

== Rake ==

An improvement on the legsweep, this attack will cause damage in addition to knocking your target to the ground.

== Treelunge ==

If you are in the trees above your target, you may attempt to drop down on them from above and impale them with your weapon. This ability will take some time to successfully perform, and your target cannot move during the process.

== Envenom ==

  ENVENOM <weapon> with <toxin>

  ENVENOM <amount> ARROWS WITH <toxin>

  WIPE <weapon>

With this ability, you may layer toxins on an edged weapon. Each time that weapon hits somebody, one toxin will poison your opponent, and disappear from the weapon. They work on a last-on, first-off basis, so if you put aspartame on a weapon, and then put cyanide on, the cyanide would come off first, and the aspartame second. You must have the selected toxin in a vial in your inventory. In order to get rid of the toxins on a weapon, simply WIPE <weapon>.

== Groinkick ==

  GROINKICK <target>

This embarassing attack will cause damage to the unlucky male who is on the receiving end, as well as cause all rational thought to be impossible for a short while.

== Scar ==

  SCAR <target>

This ability will cause your target to become horribly ugly and will cause his/her loyal companions to turn on him/her. Your target will have to apply a mending salve to cure the scarring.

== Hafting ==

Shortening the long haft of a weapon will cause it to do less damage, but it will be faster and easier to wield.

When used on an artifact weapon, the hafting can be reverted using UNHAFT <weapon>. For regular weapons, the change is permanent.

== Balancing ==

  BALANCING ON|OFF

== Piercelimb ==

  PIERCELIMB|PLIMB <target> <limb>

== Longtoss ==

  LONGTOSS|LTOSS <target>

If your target is outdoors and in the same area as you, you may throw your javelin high up into the air so that it will come down and viciously strike your target.

== Lanyard ==

  ATTACH LANYARD TO <weapon>

  PULL LANYARD

Using one rope commodity, you can attach a lanyard to your weapon such that if the weapon leaves your hands, you can pull it back to you instantly. If you move out of the area while your weapon is not with you, the rope will snap.

== Strangle ==

If your target is on the ground or encumbered in some way, you may begin to strangle him/her with the haft of your weapon. While you are strangling, you cannot do anything else. The strangling will continue until your target writhes free of your grasp.

== Fend ==

Primarily a defensive technique, this ability will help you attack multiple targets at once. This first target will be hit with a quick jab of the tip of your weapon, while the second will be delivered a blow from the haft.

If you are targetting multiple mobs, you can use fend to hit both of them with a slightly easier syntax. For example, if there are two orcs in the room, you can use FEND OFF ORC 2 to hit two separate orcs.

== Violentblock ==

== Volley ==

This ability will allow you to throw multiple weapons at a target in an adjacent location. The balance cost of weapons being thrown while you are volleying will be far less than a normal throw. You will continue throwing until you have no more weapons or until you stop volleying.

== Ram ==

  RAM <direction>

This ability will allow you to charge into a room, knocking down and stunning all of your enemies in the room who are prone or otherwise hindered.

== Wedge ==

  WEDGE FOR <target>

You may wedge the haft of your weapon in the ground such that should your target enter the room, he/she will become impaled upon the weapon.

== Beastbane ==

  BEASTBANE <target>

This ability will allow you to disrupt the delicate structure of the unnatural beasts created by magick.

== Footsmash ==

This ability will knock your opponent off balance. If he/she is in the process of recovering balance already, the affect of this ability will be greatly increased.

  LOCKUP <target>

  BASHIMPALE|BMP <target>

== Spinning ==

Spinning your weapon will allow you to automatically counterattack any physical attack directed at you.

== Disembowel ==

== Powersoul ==

Summoning forth the battle prowess from within your soul will drastically increase the speed with which you can quickjab your targets.
