A thin, spiralling script covers its surface, telling the tale of the Graveyard above. The Graveyard is a place where newbie characters are able to become used to the commands of the mud as well as gather a few pieces of equipment that will help them survive the harsh reality of the world. The mobiles in the Graveyard are of both evil and good virtues, so the player may decide which to kill in the case of alignment- driven roleplaying. The zone itself is to look realistic within the fantasy realms and will not include any t-shirts, beastly fidos, nor a Ring of Newbie Helping. With luck and work, the Graveyard will be enjoyable to play and beneficial to the new player as well without the use of cadets, training dummies, or janitors. ~ #7401 large wooden sign~ a large, wooden sign~ A large wooden sign is mounted on a painted post near the path.~ ~ 12 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 E large wooden sign~ The scrolling painted letters are written in common: Adventurers might find it interesting to know that the use of all capital letters often means there is help to be had with that particular word. Please do not pick the flowers. ~ #7402 hole~ a hole in the ground~ A hole has been dug in the ground here.~ ~ 15 d 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 20 0 -1 0 0 0 0 0 #7403 handful edible roots~ a handful of edible roots~ A handful of edible roots juts up from the dirt.~ ~ 19 0 0 0 0 a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 4 0 0 0 2 25 5 0 E handful edible roots~ These roots are small and colored a tasty russet.

Some roots still cling to the flowers, apparently a reminder of the violent upheaval required to pull them from the ground. ~ A 6 1 #7405 boots sturdy~ a pair of sturdy leather boots~ Someone has left a pair of boots lying around.~ ~ 9 o 0 0 0 ag 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 10 100 10 0 E pair leather boots sturdy~ Worked of good, sensible leather, these boots are well-made and should last a long time.

It almost looks as if it could be worn as a shield ~ #7408 patchwork cloak heap cloth~ a patchwork cloak~ A heap of cloth collects dust as it lies here.~ ~ 9 gp 0 0 0 ak 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 2 2 0 0 E patchwork cloak heap cloth~ This cloak is patched together from various unmatched bits of fabric of all types.

Unfortunately, wearing it would require giving up any body armour. ~ #7413 bright copper oil lamp~ a bright, copper oil lamp~ A bright, copper oil lamp lies here, burning merrily.~ ~ 1 k 0 0 0 a 0 0 0 e 0 0 0 0 0 10 0 3 60 6 0 E bright copper oil lamp~ Made of a shoddy burnished copper, this lamp is functional, but unremarkable.

The small pouches hanging from the belt are trimmed with a coarse, black fur.

It's length is an astounding eight feet from handle to tongue that would require much skill to master. ~ A 18 1 #7423 charred suit mail~ a charred suit of mail~ A charred mail suit was thrown aside here.~ ~ 9 jmo 0 0 0 ad 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 0 0 0 20 400 40 0 E charred suit mail~ Seared by fire and blackened with ash, this suit of mail hardly seems useable.

Crafted of fine bluesteel, an ore from deep in the mountains, the armour is both functional and beautiful. Age may have caused some breakdown in the metal, but it seems strong. ~ #7430 steel bluesteel warhammer hammer~ Lord Mycea's bluesteel warhammer~ A wicked-looking warhammer has been left here.~ ~ 5 g 0 0 0 an 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 3 2 6 15 900 100 0 E blue steel bluesteel warhammer hammer~ A historic weapon, Lord Mycea's warhammer has a bluesteel head strapped to a three foot handle.
