No one in this game knows your name, instead, they only know you by your |wshort description|n you established when creating your character. Change it with:

You will also want to |wadd to that description|n with a pose, like:
|gpose winking at everyone|n
These two labels will be shown to anyone looking around the area you are in.
What is the goal of this game? Just to escape the chaos of the world and explore an idyllic setting. I call it my |yegg hunt game|n, as the game is full odd stuff to discover. Feel free to find me to chat, but good luck finding me, as I may be hiding.
This is the end of this help section, but I have some related topics to this intro, so you can type |ghelp start/commands|n to get a list of typical commands, or just start playing this game.

A command is typically a 'verb'. The most common ones in this game are:
- 'look' to look around at your surroundings
- 'look <thing>' to look at something particular
- 'get <thing>' to pick up something
- 'inventory' (or 'inv' or just 'i') for a list of what you carry
- 'drop <thing>' to leave the thing in this area (but don't litter)
- 'say' to talk to the characters and object in your current location
- 'pose' to state a fact about yourself.
- |glook|n to look around at your surroundings
- |glook <thing>|n to look at something particular
- |gget <thing>|n to pick up something
- |ginventory|n (or |ginv|n or just |gi|n) for a list of what you carry
- |gdrop <thing>|n to leave the thing in this area (but don't litter)
- |gsay|n to talk to the characters and object in your current location
- |gpose|n to update your description
- |gemote|n to state a fact about yourself and the world around you.
### Say
We often want to chat in these sorts of games, so instead of typing:
|gsay Good evening!|n
You can simply type:
|g"Good evening!
Or:
|g'Good evening!
Creatures and objects in this game can sometimes respond to what you say.
### Pose
To tell others what you are doing (without |gsay|ning it), you can |gpose|n, as in:
|gpose smiles.|n
We do this a lot, so use this shortcut:
|g: smiles.|n
What about abbreviating "is" statements? Yeah, this works:
|g:'s happy, and wants you to know it.|n
Your "pose" can be anything, for instance, you can pretend to be a wizard:
|g: casts a fireball, exploding the bush behind you!|n
But you may find staying in character more 'escape-y'.
Type |ghelp|n and those commands to get more information on its usage.
