		57	the Chat entry.
		58
		59	=head2 Basic commands
		60

		63	and B<fire> by holding down shift and an arrow key.
		64
		65	=head2 Weight
		66
		67	Each item has some weight, and having a lot of items in you inventory may
		68	B<slow> you down.
		69
		70	=head2 Food
		71
		72	All characters (well, almost all) need to eat sometimes, watch the food
		73	bar to keep yourself fed.
		74
		75	=head2 Depletion
		76
		77	If your stats are damaged (depleted) you should use potion of life to
		78	B<restore> them.
		79
		80	=head2 Signs and other Textual Information
		81
		82	B<Reading> all kinds of things is important in this game. It could provide
		83	valuable advice or even save your life.
		84
		85	=head2 Shops
		86
		87	Specialized shops B<pay well> for the items they are interested in and pay
		88	almost B<nothing> for items which are not of their kind.
		89
		90	=head2 Identification of Items
		91
		92	Selling items B<identified> may be more profitable than selling them plain.
		93	You can do it via spells, scrolls, altars and other means.
		94
		95	=head2 Stuck
		96
		97	If you don't know how to exit a location you can try to B<use>
		98	transportation spells, B<ask> for help in chat, or as last resort, type
		99	the B<"suicide"> command.
		100
		101	=head2 Money
		102
		103	The most common currencies in Deliantra are silver coins, gold coins and
		104	platinum coins, which you can exchange in a bank. Also, other types of
		105	currencies are present in game.
		106
		107	=head2 Talking
		108
		109	Talk to B<all> NPC (the ones with a speech bubble): not only it will help
		110	you to become familiar with game world, but they are also a source of
		111	B<quests> and B<treasure> hints.
		112
		113	=head2 Death and Beyond
		114
		115	Don't become upset when you die, you'll be I<resurrected> at the last
		116	B<bed of reality> you used, after having paid some B<penalty>. To negate
		117	the penalty you can try to B<play a game> with Death.
		118
		119	=head2 Saving
		120
		121	You must leave the game via "beds to reality", or savebeds, as they are
		122	usually called. If you simply disconnect, then monsters can do a harm to
		123	you.
		124
		125	Usually, these savebeds could be found in inns, houses and so on. Also,
		126	these B<beds for reality> are "markers" where you will be resurrected
		127	after your death.
		128
		129	If you disconnect or are disconnected without having used a savebed,
		130	you'll have about 30 minutes to reconnect.
		131
		132	=head2 Exploration
		133
		134	It is very useful (but also interesting :) ) to B<explore> the country. Don't
		135	visit a couple of dungeons on and on, try to find new ones!
		136
		137	=head2 Illumination
		138
		139	Deliantra has light levels and these light levels are changing with time,
		140	and some dungeons can be very dark. To be comfortable with it, you can use
		141	B<lanterns>, or B<torches> with flint and steel.
		142
		143	=head2 Newbie area
		144
		145	After character creation you'll start in a newbie area. You shouldn't try to
		146	leave it early, before you are at least level 5 (some characters may take
		147	more or less than that).
		148
		149	=head2 Diseases
		150
		151	You can catch a disease via traps, monsters, other players and just by
		152	visiting contaminated areas. All low-level diseases wear off with time,
		153	but it is recommended to B<cure> them quickly. Although, if you survive
		154	long enough, you can acquire B<immunity> to that disease.
		155
		156	=head2 Magic Resistances
		157
		158	Some monsters are unaffected by attacks of a certain type. For
		159	example, fire dragons cannot be hurt by fire. Try the opposite element
		160	instead. Experiment.
		161
		162	=head2 Poisoning
		163
		164	You can get poisoned via a bite of venomous creatures or magic attacks. In
		165	this case, you'll start loosing you HP and your food consumption rate will
		166	increase. You can try to B<wait> until it wears off, or try to B<remove>
		167	it via spells or potions.
		168
		169	=head2 Player Shop
		170
		171	You can sell B<interesting> or B<unique> items to other players. Please,
		172	don't fill it with regular junk and put each type of item in the section
		173	it deserves.
		174
		175	=head2 Quests
		176
		177	Quests in Deliantra are B<unique> compared to other MMORPGs. You'll never
		178	see two similar quests or something like "Kill 20 silver bugs" or "Kill
		179	30 golden bugs". No hours of mobslaying! Each quest requires creative
		180	approach. You can get your first quests in the B<palace> or at the B<quest
		181	master>.
		182
		183	=head2 Arrows
		184
		185	You can buy B<unlimited> amounts of arrows in specialized archer shops.
		186
		187	=head2 Binding
		188
		189	It is vital to B<bind> keys to some actions, such as applying healing
		190	potion to a key. You can do that by using the right-mouse-button popup
		191	menu on items, skills and spells, but also by recording a macro, or by
		192	writing it by hand.
