Range

Usage

Type: range

Also typed as distance

Range tells you how much ground stands between you and everything else in the room, and how far the weapons you are holding can strike across it. Enemies arrive at a distance and close on you; you can close on them with ADVANCE, or give ground back with RETREAT. A weapon reaches its own band and every band nearer, so a bow can be loosed at far range and a sword only in melee.

Good to know

• Refused while you are a ghost or sleeping.
• Runs the moment you type it, even in combat.
