 N/A

FIDGET

You fidget.

Eratika fidgets.

FIRE
(NOTE: this verb is used when hunting with a BOW (short bow, composite bow, or long bow) or a CROSSBOW (light crossbow or heavy crossbow). Their uses are slightly different, however, each require use of the LEFT hand for the weapon, instead of the right, as melee weapons do. Also see ATTACK for reference to special Voln messages which may occur when one successfully kills undead critters by AMBUSHing, ATTACKing, CASTing, FIREing, HURLing, MSTRIKEing or TRIPing)

Bows -

Firing the bow also includes loading (or nocking) the arrow as one command (see GET), however you must be holding the arrow in the right hand for this to work. Place your bow in the left hand, the arrow in the right, and FIRE MY BOW AT <CRITTER>. Note that using short bows instead long bows will shorten the round time but the damage inflicted will not be as great. The behavior of composite bows falls somewhere in between that of short bows and long bows.

Crossbows -

Crossbows require first cocking the weapon and then loading it with a bolt. Heavy crossbows require heavy bolts, and light crossbows require light bolts. Hold the crossbow in the left hand and COCK the weapon. Then get a bolt, and LOAD the crossbow. You may then FIRE MY CROSSBOW AT <CRITTER>. Crossbows have an added benefit of providing a +50 attack strength if the shooter is kneeling. Also note that using light crossbows instead heavy crossbows will shorten the round time, but the damage inflicted will not be as great.

The kobold crumples to a heap on the ground and dies.
Round time: 8 sec.

Using a crossbow:

FORAGE <HERB> (NOTE: Every time you forage you receive an open 1d100 roll. The result is compared to an hidden threshold, which varies according to the kind of herb you desire. You will successfully forage if you roll over the threshold AND you are in a room where the herb can be found.  Many factors exist which can raise or lower the success threshold: (1) kneeling lowers the threshold; (2) one empty hand lowers the threshold some, two empty hands even more; (3) hand scars will raise the threshold; (4) the rangers' forage spell will lower the threshold; (5) the more trainings you've had (birthdays), the lower the threshold; (6) rangers have the lowest thresholds, wizards and sorcerers the highest; and (7) the area where you can find an herb may be less than perfect for that herb, thus raising the threshold. Note that if your left hand is not free while foraging, the herb will be left on the ground.  Also note that while foraging produces one-bite herbs, the spell "Herb Production" appears to produce herbs with two to four bites.)
