Swimming

Syntax
SWIM <direction>

Using this ability, you can swim in lakes, rivers, and the ocean, albeit slowly.

Additional Notes:
You will take health damage unless you can breathe water or know Fluidswim.


Glancing

Syntax
GLANCE <direction>

GLANCE [GROUND|SKIES|ROOFTOPS|TREES]

Take a quick glance into an adjacent location. Alternatively, you can glance at different elevations, assuming you have the pre-requisite Environment skill. GL is also a pre-set alias for GLANCE that is usable with any of its other arguments.


Surveying

Syntax
SURVEY

You've learned the lay of the land enough to be able to determine some basic information about your surroundings from a simple glance. If you have the Gatemaster ability in Planar, you can also see where rifts in your location lead whenever you survey your surroundings.

Additional Notes:
This will show what area and plane you're in, as well as some key facts such as the presence of stink or the destination of mystic pathways. Note that the environment it shows might be false if a mage or druid has imbued the area (even if not melded), or if an illusory terrain is placed, or both.


Snowballs

Syntax
PACK SNOWBALL

During a snowfall, you can pack well formed snowballs and have a lovely snowball fight.

Additional Notes:
Snowballs melt over the course of a day; probing them will show how slushy they are.


Forecast

Syntax
FORECAST

Perceive the weather conditions in the environment around you with a remarkable degree of accuracy.

Additional Notes:
Requires being outdoors. Despite the name it doesn't actually tell you what the weather will be, just what it is right now.


Squinting

Syntax
SQUINT <direction>

Glance through all locations within your line of sight.

Additional Notes:
Outputs glance information for all rooms adjacent along a single direction.


Secrets

Syntax
SECRETS

Using your perceptive powers, you will attempt to spot hidden exits from your room. It should be noted that secret exits can be fairly difficult to spot, and that you will often fail to find an exit with this ability.

Additional Notes:
Your likelihood of success depends on your total lessons invested in Environment.


Treading

With Treading, you are able to stay in one place in the water without fear of drowning.


Perceive

Syntax
PERCEIVE

When surveying a location, you can now determine whether you are treading within the demesne of a powerful mage or druid.

Additional Notes:
Contrary to the description above, you don't get this information automatically when you SURVEY, you have to separately PERCEIVE.


Scouting

Syntax
SCOUT

Look around for adjacent areas and estimate in which direction they can be found.


Flyers

Syntax
FLYERS

If you use this ability while outdoors, you will gain information on those in the skies above you.

Additional Notes:
All you really learn is who is up there.


Dousing

Syntax
FILL BUCKET WITH WATER, DOUSE FIRE

With this ability, you may fill a bucket with water in any watery location, and then, while standing in a burning location, douse the fires that rage.

Additional Notes:
One can create buckets using the Ironcraft ability in Arts.


RockClimbing

Syntax
CLIMB ROCKS
Power: 3 (any)

If you find yourself stuck in a pit and are having trouble climbing out normally, your skill at rock climbing is such that you are able to pull yourself out under even the most severe conditions.


Windtalk

Your words will never be blown away during high winds.

Additional Notes:
Note that wind stealing your voice even affects denizens, like scholars you're offering to lead.


Observe

Syntax
OBSERVE

This will perform a QL on each location adjacent to yours, in quick succession. An excellent way to ensure your surroundings are safe.


Sewers

Syntax
ENTER GRATE

Dotted around the streets of cities are sewer grates, leading to the sewer system of that city. This ability will allow you access to that foul area, but be warned that many unsavoury characters reside there.

Additional Notes:
Also note that sometimes sewers can lead you unwillingly into the body of Muud, which is very dangerous for all but the most powerful.


Chop

Syntax
CHOP <tree> WITH <axe>

CHOP VINES

With an axe, you can chop down even the great trees of the forests, including dryad trees.

Additional Notes:
Axes are made by smiths.

[OLD NOTE] The stats of your axe do determine how many blows it takes to fell a tree. [PLEASE VERIFY]


Fluidswim

Once you have gained this ability, you will be able to swim constantly without fear of health loss due to drowning.


Tumbling

Syntax
TUMBLE <direction>

TUMBLE BELOW

You can tumble past obstructions, or tumble towards the ground if you are above it. Useful for escaping sticky situations where you might otherwise be unable to move!

Additional Notes:
Very few things prevent tumble and even fewer will stop a tumble once it's been started.


TrueGround

Syntax
TRUEGROUND
Power: 2 (Any)

In unmelded rooms where the environment has been changed, you can tap into its etheric spirit and reveal its true nature.


DisarmTraps

Syntax
DISARM <trap> [CAREFULLY]
Power: 2 (to disarm carefully)

If you know the trap that is in the room, you can attempt to disarm it.

If you disarm a trap carefully, you will expend some power to enhance your dexterity and sensitivity to the trap's mechanisms, allowing you a much greater chance at disarming it without triggering the trap.

*NOTE - You are very unlikely to succeed in disarming an active trap without doing so carefully so be warned.


Mountaineering

Syntax
SCALE [UP|DOWN]

OBSERVE MOUNTAINS

You can scale up to the highest peaks of a mountain.

You are also able to peer into all the mountain elevations in a room, at an equilibrium cost.

Additional Notes:
Scaling uses balance. Mountain rooms have 10 special elevations between flying and the ground. Like how flying puts you in "Flying above <room name>", scaling up will put you "In the mountains above <room name>". If flying, one can use LAND MOUNTAINS to immediately reach the highest mountain elevation, however, without Mountaineering, the landed flyer will then rapidly drop down through these elevation rooms one at a time (taking health damage each time).

The effect of a pair of thin spectacles (see ASHOP 22) does apply to OBSERVE MOUNTAINS.


Crashing

Syntax
CRASH <direction>

Using this ability, you will be able to crash through any unnatural wall (except a firewall). This will destroy the wall completely. Note that it may take multiple attempts before the wall comes tumbling down, and different walls may be harder to destroy than others.


Stargazing

Syntax
STARGAZE

By grasping a basic knowledge of astronomy, you can generally tell the alignment of the Sun and Moon within the heavens, depending on which currently ascends the sky. Only an Astrologer can make accurate predictions and reveal the full readings of the heavenly bodies.


Climbing

Syntax
CLIMB UP, CLIMB DOWN

When in a forest location, you will be able to climb up into the trees.


Rooftops

Syntax
SCALE ROOFTOPS / CLIMB DOWN

You can scale up to rooftops if they are accessible. Rooftops can only be found in certain urban locations, usually over roads.


Diving

Syntax
DIVE, RISE

When in an ocean location, that does not have a down exit, you can DIVE into the ocean depths.


Shaking

Syntax
SHAKE TREES

By using this ability, you will be able to try and shake people loose who might be hiding up in the trees.


Clinging

Syntax
CLING

Such is your knowledge of the outdoors and so comfortable are you in the trees, that you are able to cling tightly onto them, maintaining your balance when in them, even if the branches should be greatly disturbed by wind or sinister persons.


Weathersight

You will be able to find exits even during blizzards or through banks of fog.


Attunement

Syntax
ATTUNEATTUNE RELEASE
Power: 10 - Attune, 3 - Release (Any)

Damage Modifier: 2/6 universal resistance (In Environment)

Taking the environment around you within, you are able to form a bond that affords you some protection as long as you remain within it. If you choose to release the bond in a special manner, your connection will return lost health to you.
