You should talk to other characters to get help and to find out about quests to complete.&lt;<br&gt;>

All of the NPCs reply to &lt;<b&gt;>Hi&lt;</b&gt;> (most of them reply also to &lt;<b&gt;>Hello&lt;</b&gt;> and &lt;<b&gt;>Hola&lt;</b&gt;>), so greet them and ask them for &lt;<b&gt;>help&lt;</b&gt;>, their &lt;<b&gt;>offer&lt;</b&gt;>, or &lt;<b&gt;>quests&lt;</b&gt;>.

Some of them will &lt;<b&gt;>sell&lt;</b&gt;> and &lt;<b&gt;>buy&lt;</b&gt;> sheep or items, others &lt;<b&gt;>heal&lt;</b&gt;> you, and others are simply &lt;<i&gt;&quot;>"useless&quot;&lt;"</i&gt;> but may tell you about their &lt;<b&gt;>job&lt;</b&gt;>.

&lt;<manuella&gt;> hi

&lt;<Xin Blanca&gt;> Greetings! How may I help you?

&lt;<manuella&gt;> help

&lt;<Xin Blanca&gt;> I buy and sell several items, ask me for my &lt;<font color=&quot;"blue&quot;&gt;">offer&lt;</font&gt;>.

&lt;<manuella&gt;> offer

&lt;<Xin Blanca&gt;> Have a look at the blackboards on the wall to see my offers.

&lt;<manuella&gt;> buy leather legs

&lt;<Xin Blanca&gt;> 1 pair of leather legs will cost 35. Do you want to buy it?

&lt;<manuella&gt;> yes

&lt;<Xin Blanca&gt;> Congratulations! Here is your pair of leather legs!

&lt;<manuella&gt;> bye

&lt;<Xin Blanca&gt;> Bye.

&lt;<miguel&gt;> buy 10 minor potions

&lt;<miguel&gt;> mill 10 flour

&lt;<Jenny&gt;> I can only mill 10 flour if you bring me 50 grain.

Some NPCs like to talk to you. If they say something in &lt;<font color=&quot;"blue&quot;&gt;">blue&lt;</font&gt;> you can repeat it to get further information.

&lt;<Tad&gt;> I have a &lt;<font color=&quot;"blue&quot;&gt;">task&lt;</font&gt;> for you.

&lt;<miguel&gt;> task

&lt;<Tad&gt;> I need you to get a flask from &lt;<font color=&quot;"blue&quot;&gt;">Margaret&lt;</font&gt;>

To attack a creature simply &lt;<b&gt;>click&lt;</b&gt;> it or &lt;<b&gt;>right click&lt;</b&gt;> on it and choose &lt;<b&gt;>Attack&lt;</b&gt;>. You will see that a red circle appears almost immediately around it. This indicates an attack is being carried out. You need to be next to the target in order to actually hit them, unless you are using a ranged weapon like bow and arrows or missiles, in which case you must stand within a close range.

* you stop it using &quot;"Stop attack&quot;" action

* a cloud means you failed to hit the target.&lt;<br&gt;>

* a shield means you hit the target but that you were unable to damage it.&lt;<br&gt;>

* a blood drop means you hit the target and damaged it. Also you will see a red number pop out of the target indicating the amount of damage actually done.&lt;<br&gt;>

Once you have killed your target it is important that you inspect its corpse to find money, food and other items: move next to the corpse, then &lt;<b&gt;>click&lt;</b&gt;> it or &lt;<b&gt;>right click&lt;</b&gt;> on it and choose &lt;<b&gt;>inspect&lt;</b&gt;>. You can identify any kind of item you find at any time by right clicking on it and choosing Look.&lt;<br&gt;>

To store items in your bag you can move them there by &lt;<b&gt;>drag and drop&lt;</b&gt;> or simply &lt;<b&gt;>click&lt;</b&gt;> them.

Levels are a way to compare your character against others. Creatures also have a level, which you can see when you do right-click and 'Look' on them. If fighting one-on-one you should be able to kill a creature with less level than you without too much difficulty. Creatures of around the same level as you, you may need &lt;<item&gt;>potion|potions&lt;</item&gt;> to defeat. Creatures of a higher level will be a challenge for you to kill, even with potions. Also you should note that if you are fighting a group of creatures you will get hurt more (since there are more of them) so fighting a group of creatures with less level than yourself can still put you in a lot of danger.

&lt;<b&gt;>Click&lt;</b&gt;> or &lt;<b&gt;>Right Click&lt;</b&gt;> on your sheep and choose &lt;<b&gt;>Look&lt;</b&gt;> to see how fat it has become. The fatter the sheep, the more you will get for it when you sell it.

Sheep aren't very intelligent. So if your sheep gets stuck or isn't near you just write &lt;<b&gt;>sheep&lt;</b&gt;> and it will start moving to your position. You can verify the sheep's position by writing &lt;<b&gt;>/where sheep&lt;</b&gt;>.

Outfit helps you to feel the real role playing experience.&lt;<br&gt;>

To bring up the dialog &lt;<b&gt;>Right Click&lt;</b&gt;> your character and choose &lt;<b&gt;>Set Outfit&lt;</b&gt;>. Click OK when you are done.

You can also choose not to wear clothes at all :)&lt;<br&gt;>
