4.1 SCORE
The first way to get information about your character is to type SCORE or SC.
This will give you a number of lines of information about the status of your
character. Below is an example of the result of this command when performed by
a player named Rynok.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The first lines are obviously your characters name, sex, and race and general
information concerning your character.
After that there are 4 lines of experience. As you do different things in
Imperian you will gain levels of experience. The higher your levels, the more
powerful you are, raising your health, mana, willpower and endurance.
Following that will be four lines showing your current and maximum health,
mana,
endurance, and willpower. For instance, Rynok currently has 296 health
points out of a maximum of 296, so he is "on full health." But, he has only 580
endurance points out of his maximum of 1381.
A few words of explanation about what these statistics represent is in order.
Health is a measure of your current physical state. If you fall to 0 health you
will, in most cases, die. During the course of a battle with another player or
a monster, your health will go up and down quite quickly as you take damage and
heal it. Mana represents your current mental state. Most magick will use mana,
and if you have no mana left, you will not be able to cast any spells.
Healing your health may be done in a number of ways, the most basic of which is
to simply type SLEEP and wait. Other methods are detailed in HELP
HEALINGYOURSELF, but it is recommended you wait to read that file, as it is
reasonably complicated. Mana may be restored by typing MEDITATE and waiting.
Again, HELP HEALINGYOURSELF will detail other, more effective but more
complicated methods.
Endurance and willpower are much like health and mana, respectively, except
that they will go up and down much more slowly. These represent how tired your
body and mind are. For instance, even though you have no obvious physical
wounds, and you are on full health, your endurance could be quite low. Running
out of endurance does not mean death, however. It just means that you will have
to rest for awhile before doing anything physical. You will gain endurance back
automatically by simply sitting still, and more quickly by sleeping. Willpower
works the same way, except that when you run out of willpower, it is mental
(generally magickal) tasks that you will not be able to perform. You will also
find yourself more suspectible to psionic attacks when your willpower is low.
The next line shows you what your current rank is in Imperian. A new player
will have no rank until you REGISTER, however. Rank is based solely on your
experience level. Do not be disheartened if you are ranked lowly, as there is
definitely not a one-to-one correspondence between success in Imperian and your
rank.
