14.2 RATS, SPIDERS and other VERMIN
One of the major activities is hunting and slaying the various kinds of vermin
that infest the major areas and sewer systems of Imperian.
This is an ideal way to earn money, as there exist, in every major city, men or
women who are paid by the cities to rid the cities of their vermin. Simply slay
the rats you find, and SELL <rats|spiders|vermin> TO <whoever>.
You can sell vermin to the following people in each city:
Name City Will Buy
----------- ----------- -------------------------------------------
Okabarish Antioch Rats
Sal Celidon Spiders
Relg Ithaqua Vole, Chipmunk, Marmot, Groundhog, Woodchuck
Lyria Khandava Mouse, Shrew, Bat, Mole, Weasel
Phillipus Kinsarmar Rats
Bartram Stavenn Rats
Thurgan Caanae Rats
If you are having trouble finding this person, just type in WALK TO <name>. For
example, if you are in Stavenn, typing in WALK TO BARTRAM will move you to
Bartam one room at a time, each time you type it in. See HELP LANDMARKS for
more information about this feature.
Because there is so much vermin wandering about and because seeing them enter
and exit can become annoying, the command RATS, SPIDERS or VERMIN will toggle
on and off your ability to notice rats. Generally, you will want to turn this
off while you are not actively looking for them.
When you see vermin dart out of its hiding spot, by all means, slay it before
it can run away. Once a certain number have been slain in a location, no
more will appear there until a new Imperian day. Generally, you'll find that a
sewer location contains more than a normal street.
