#HELPS
0 GATE~
Syntax: cast 'gate' <mob/player>
The gate spell is a powerful transportation magic that opens up a portal
between your character and another person or creature somewhere else in the
world. This portal will transport you and any pet you might have, but not
other members of your group. Monsters recieve a save against gate, and
monster or players more than 3 levels higher than you can not be gated to at
all. God rooms, private rooms, and no recall rooms cannot be gated to, and
no recall rooms cannot be gated out of. Finally, any god or hero is also
immune to gate, as well as in player who has no summon set. Clan members
may not be gated to except by their fellow Clan members.
~

~
0 CAST~
Syntax: cast <spell> <target>
Before you can cast a spell, you have to practice it. The more you practice,
the higher chance you have of success when casting. Casting spells costs mana.
The mana cost decreases as your level increases.
The <target> is optional. Many spells which need targets will use an
appropriate default target, especially during combat.
If the spell name is more than one word, then you must quote the spell name.
Example: cast 'cure critic' frag. Quoting is optional for single-word spells.
You can abbreviate the spell name.
When you cast an offensive spell, the victim usually gets a saving throw.
The effect of the spell is reduced or eliminated if the victim makes the
saving throw successfully.

Syntax: cast 'cure serious' <character>
Syntax: cast 'cure critical' <character>
Syntax: cast 'heal' <character>
These spells cure damage on the target character. The higher-level spells
heal more damage.
(see 'help healer' for details on the heal command)
~
0 CURSE~
Syntax: cast 'curse' <character>
This spell reduces the character's to-hit roll and save versus spells.

allowing (for example) weapons to do more damage to particularly holy
opponents.
~
0 'DETECT EVIL'~
Syntax: cast 'detect evil'

This spell invokes the wrath of Mota on an evil victim. It can be very
dangerous for casters who are not pure of heart.
~
0 'DISPEL MAGIC' CANCELLATION~
Syntax: cast 'dispel magic' <character>
cast 'cancellation' <characte>
Both of these spells remove magical effects from the target. Dispel magic
has a reduced chance of working, and is considering an attack spell.
Cancellation can only be used on allies, but is much more effective and does
not provoke attack. Unfortunately, the spells do not discriminate between
harmful and benign spells.
The chance of dispelling is based on the level of the spell. Permanent spells
(such as mobile sanctuary) are much harder to remove. Not all spells may
be dispelled, notable examples are poison and plague.
~
0 EARTHQUAKE~
Syntax: cast 'earthquake'
This spell inflicts damage on every enemy character in the room.
Beware that other characters who are not yet fighting may attack
you as a result!
~
0 'ENCHANT WEAPON'~
Syntax: cast 'enchant weapon' <weapon>
This spell magically enchants a weapon, increasing its to-hit and to-dam
bonuses by one or two points. Multiple enchants may be cast, but as the
weapon grows more and more powerful, it is more likely to be drained or
destroyed by the magic. Also, every successful enchant increases the level
of the weapon by one...and there is no turning back.
~
0 'ENCHANT ARMOR'~
The enchant armor spell imbues armor with powerful protective magics. It is
not nearly as reliable as enchant weapon, being far more prone to destructive
effects. Each succesful enchant increases the plus of the armor by 1 or 2
points, and raises its level by one.
~
0 'ENERGY DRAIN'~
Syntax: cast 'energy drain' <victim>
This spell saps the experience points, mana, and movement points of its
target.
~
0 'FAERIE FIRE'~

Syntax: cast 'invisibility' <character>

victim's regeneration rate. It may also be used to poison food, drink, or
a weapon in a fashion similar to envenom ('help envenom'), but with
drastically reduced effectiveness.
~
0 SANCTUARY~
Syntax: cast sanctuary <character>
The SANCTUARY spell reduces the damage taken by the character from any attack
by one half.
~
0 REFRESH~

points.

throw will know that someone is using ventriloquism, but not who. Victims who
fail their saving throw will think that the object or character really did say
your message.
~
0 WEAKEN~
Syntax: cast weaken <victim>
This spell reduces the strength of the victim by two points.
~
0 'WORD OF RECALL'~
Syntax: cast 'word of recall'

Merc-based muds which wish to eliminate the built-in ability while still
providing the spell.
~
0 'ACID BREATH' 'FIRE BREATH' 'FROST BREATH' 'GAS BREATH' 'LIGHTNING BREATH'~
Syntax: cast 'acid breath' <victim>
Syntax: cast 'fire breath' <victim>
Syntax: cast 'frost breath' <victim>
Syntax: cast 'gas breath'

~
0 'DETECT GOOD'~
Syntax: cast 'detect good'
This spell enables the caster to detect good characters, which will
reveal a characteristic golden aura.
~
0 'DISPEL GOOD'~
Syntax: cast 'dispel good' <victim>
Dispel good brings forth evil energies that inflict horrific torment on
the pure of heart. Good-aligned characters use this dark magic at their
peril.
~
0 'RECHARGE'~
Syntax: cast 'recharge' <item>
The recharge spell is used to restore energy to depleted wands and staves.
Fully exhausted items cannot be recharged, and the difficulty of the spell
is proportional to the number of charges used. Magic items can only be
recharged one time successfully.
~
0 'DEMONFIRE'~
Syntax: cast 'demonfire' <target>
Demonfire is a spell of blackest evil, and as such can only be used by those
who follow the paths of darkness. It conjures forth demonic spirits to
inflict terrible wounds on the enemies of the caster.
~
0 'RAY OF TRUTH'~
Syntax: cast 'ray of truth' <target>
Ray of truth opens a portal to the planes of positive energy, bringing forth
a beam of light of sufficient purity to harm or or annihilate the servants
of evil. It cannot harm the pure of heart, and will turn and strike
casters who are tainted by evil.
~
0 'PORTAL'~
Syntax: cast 'portal' <target>
The portal spell is similar to gate, but creates a lasting one-way portal
to the target creature, instead of transporting the caster. Portals are
entered using 'enter' or 'go' command, as in 'go portal'. Portals cannot
be made to certain destinations, nor used to escape from gate-proof rooms.
Portal requires a special source of power to be used, unfortunately the
secret of this material component has been lost...
~
0 'NEXUS'~
Syntax: cast 'nexus' <target>
This spell is virtually identical to portal (see 'help portal'), with the
only difference being that while portal creates a one-way gate, a nexus
spell makes a two-sided gate. It also lasts longer than the lower-powered
portal spell. Both spells require an additional power source, the secret
of which has been lost...
~
0 'HEAT METAL'~
Syntax: cast 'heat metal' <target>
Heat metal is a powerful clerical attack spell, with effects that vary
according to the armor of the victim. It heats up the metal equipment
(assumed to be all weapons and armor at this point in time) on the target,
causing him or her to drop them if possible, taking serious burns in the
process (possibly fatal if the equipment is too heavy to remove easily).
This spell does no damage to creatures who are immune to fire.
~
0 'HOLY WORD'~
Syntax: cast 'holy word'
Holy word involves the invocation of the full power of a cleric's god, with
disasterous effects upon the enemies of the priest coupled with powerful
blessings on the priest's allies. All creatures of like alignment in the
room are blessed and filled with righteous divine wrath, while those of
opposite morals (or both good and evil in the case of neutral priests)
are struck down by holy (or unholy might) and cursed. The cleric suffers
greatly from the strain of this spell, being left unable to move and
drained of vitality. Experience loss is no longer associated with the spell.
~
0 FRENZY~
Syntax: cast 'frenzy' <target>
The frenzy spell fills the target with righteous fury, greatly increasing
his or her attack skill and damaging capacity. Unfortunately, this divine
wrath is coupled with a tendency to ignore threats to personal safety,
making the character easier to hit. Frenzy provides immunity to the calm
spell (see 'help calm'), and may only be used on those of the caster's
alignment.
~
0 CALM~
Syntax: cast 'calm'
One of the most useful and often overlooked abilities of the master cleric is
the calm spell, which can put an end to all violence in a room. Calmed
creatures will not attack of their own volition, and are at a disadvantage
in combat as long as the spell soothes their minds. The more violence
activity there is in a room, the harder the spell, and it is all or nothing --
either all combat in the room is ended (with the exception of those who
are immune to magic) or none is.
~
0 HASTE~
Syntax: cast 'haste' <target>
The haste spell increases the speed and agility of the recipient, allowing
an extra attack (or even a backstab) in combat, and improving evasive
abilities in combat. However, it produces a great strain on the system,
such that recuperative abilities are halved. Haste is capable of negating
the slow spell. (see 'help slow').
~
0 SLOW~
Syntax: cast 'slow' <target>
Despite popular mythology, slow is not the opposite of haste, but is a spell
with it's own unique set of effects. When cast on an unfortunate victim,
it slows its movements, making it easier to hit and reducing its rate
of attack. The effect of slow also double movement costs and halve healing
rates, due to reduced metabolism.
~
0 PLAGUE~
Syntax: cast 'plague' <target>
The plague spell infests the target with a magical disease of great virulence,
sapping its strength and causing horrific suffering, possibly leading to
death. It is a risky spell to use, as the contagion can spread like
wildfire if the victim makes it to a populated area.
~
0 'CREATE ROSE'~
Syntax: cast 'create rose'
A romantic spell that creates a fragrant red rose, with utterly no game
use whatsoever.
~
0 'PROTECTION GOOD' 'PROTECTION EVIL'~
Syntax: cast 'protection evil' <target>
cast 'protection good' <target>
The protection spells reduce damage taken from attackers of the appropriate
ethos, and improve saving throws against all forms of magic. They may not
be cast on others, and one person cannot carry both defenses at the same
time.
~
0 'GIANT STRENGTH'~
Syntax: cast 'giant strength' <character>
This spell increases the strength of the target character.
~
0 'CHAIN LIGHTNING'~
Syntax : cast 'chain lightning' <target>
Chain lightning is a deadly spell, producing a powerful bolt of lightning
that arcs from target to target in the room, until its force is fully
expended. Allies of the caster may be hit by this spell if they are members
of a clan, while the caster himself will not be struck unless no other
viable target remains. Chain lightning is most effective when used on
groups of creatures.
~
0 FARSIGHT~
Syntax: cast 'farsight'
cast 'farsight' <direction>
The farsight spell expands the caster's consciousness, allowing him or her
to see far away beings like they were in the same room. It takes intense
concentration, often leaving the caster helpless for several minutes.
The spell may be used for a general scan that reaches a short distance in
all directions, or with a directional component to see creatures much
farther away.
~
0 MASS HEALING~
Syntax: cast 'mass healing'
The mass healing spell, as its name might suggest, performs a healing spell
on all players in the room. It also throws in a refresh spell for good
measure.
~
0 'FLOATING DISC'~
Syntax: cast 'floating disc'
This useful spell creates a floating field of force which follows the caser
around, allowing him or her to pile treasure high with no fear of weight
penalties. It lasts no more than twice the casters level in hours, and
usually less. It can hold 10 pounds per level of the caster, with a
maximum of five pounds per item. The spell requires an open float location
on the character, and the only way to remove the disc is to die or allow it
to run out of energy.
~
0 FIREPROOF~
Syntax: cast 'fireproof' <object>
The fireproof spell creates a short-lived protective aura around an object,
to protect it from the harmful effects of acid and flame. Items protected
by this spell are not harmed by acid, fire, or the heat metal spell.
Although inexpensive to use, the spell's short duration makes it impractical
for protecting large numbers of objects.
