#870 Food, hunger, and thirst. These are the feelings someone who needs a hot plate of rations and a cool drink of ice water would endure. Keeping yourself in good health involves eating and drinking right; and doing so often enough that your physical energy is maximized. Simply put, for you to regenerate at a reasonable rate, you will need to eat and drink in the MUD to keep your character healthy. There are many places in the game where anyone can buy food and receive a free drink from a fountain or vaporator in a town square. You can often find food randomly across the galaxy. Certain foods and drinks will keep you filled up longer than others. Edible objects can also be poisoned, so beware what you try or you may end up having to rest off a temporary sickness.

Highly experienced Sentinels have managed to master the technique of battle meditation. During this time the Sentinel will not fight personally, but enhance the fighting capabilities of others by removing doubt, enhancing coordination, etc. The effects last for a while, but will end if the Sentinel ends the battle meditation. See Also: Sentinel ~ #878 The Icebox ---------- Immortals have the ability to isolate a specific player by way of the 'ice' command. When a player is 'iced', they are transferred to the ICEBOX. I got iced, what now? --------------------- If you have been iced, you will not be able to perform normal game commands except for 'quit.' Please wait patiently and an Immortal will join you to discuss why you've been iced. Common reasons for sending a player to the icebox include ignoring repeated warnings, unacceptable behavior, and cheating/gameplay offenses such as eq transfer, multiplaying, botting, or pk rule violation. Things you DON'T want to do when iceboxed ----------------------------------------- * DO NOT drop link and connect using another character to ask why you're in the icebox. * DO NOT start arguing with the immortal until they've had a chance to explain your icing. * DO NOT quit until you've had a chance to give your side of the story. * DO NOT start cursing, calling the immortals bad names, or making threats. Usage (Immortals) ----------------- > ice player Sends named Player to the icebox. > deice player Releases named Player from the icebox. When a player has been iced, a character flag known as PROBATION is set which disables their commands. DO NOT use transfer to move a player out of or into the icebox or the flag will not be set/removed. The Icebox can hold multiple players at any given time. It is good form to use the Icebox Monitor to write a post explaining why someone was iced and the duration of their punishment, if you plan to leave them in the icebox for more than a short period of time. It is bad form for other immortals to deice an iced player without consulting with the immortal who put them there in the first place.
