[[Image:Tutorial Skills.jpg|right|thumb|Skill List]]
Hit F2 on your keyboard to show a list of your skills. There are 4 main categories in this window, [[characteristics]], [[religion]], [[:Category:Skills|skills category]] and spell effects. The characteristic sub-skills are values representing the current state of your body, mind and soul, for instance, to be able to attack anything, your body characteristic must be at least 1.5, or you will be too weak. Each sub-characteristic is again divided into several under-under characteristics, which has their own functions. For instance, the maximum amount of weight you can carry is determined by your body strength.

Religion skills consist of 3 things, [[faith]], [[favour]] and [[alignment]]. Alignment basically says whether you are good or evil, this is determined by the actions you do. Some [[gods]] won’t accept your [[Praying|prayers]] if you are evil for instance. Faith is a measure of how much your chosen gods like you, e.g. how much power they bestow in you. Faith is increased by praying at an altar dedicated to your chosen god, although it is capped at 30 for players who does not wish to become [[priest|priests]]. Priests are dedicated to following the will of their gods, and as thus, a priest has the ability to cast his or her god’s [[:Category:Spells|spell]] at the cost of favour. Favor is the equivalent of mana in many other role playing games. [[Favor]] is only regained over time once used, so it should be used wisely.

The [[:Category:Skills|skills category]] is by far the most interesting as it lists all the skills you have discovered, as well as a number representing your expertise within that skill. As your skills increase you will find that the various tasks in the game becomes easier, and you will make better and better items. Skills [[decay]] when you [[die]], so take good care of yourself as your skills are the most valuable thing you have. Due to the time it takes to reach mastery in any given skill, it is important to specialize if one wants to have high skills.

The inventory menu (F3) contains 2 trees, your body and your [[inventory]]. Your inventory is where you carry the items you start with, create and pick up. Your body is where your equipped items are placed, as well as where wounds will be located when you take damage. If you click the + next to your body you will see your various body parts, as well as what they contain of wounds or equipment. The “Active:” on the bottom shows which tool or item you are currently using.

Right-click on objects, tiles, players--anything--to interact with it through [[action]]s. A pop-up (context) menu appears saying "''Requesting...''" which means the [[client]] is fetching data from the [[server]] about the specific object the player is trying to interact with. When it's done (which should be near instant unless there is lag), the player is given several options (actions) in the menu of what to do with the object. There are different options for different objects and more actions depending on what item the player has active. For example, the "Cut down" action will appear if the [[hatchet]] is active and a [[tree]] is right-clicked.
 
  
Note that if a menu that appears in <span style=color:#999999>dark grey</span> is cached, not all actions may work. It will be automatically replaced with the real menu when the data from the server is received.

Skills

Skill List
Main article: Skills

Hit F2 on your keyboard to show a list of your skills. There are 3 main categories in this window, characteristics, religion, and skills category. The characteristic sub-skills are values representing the current state of your body, mind and soul. For instance, to be able to attack anything, your body characteristic must be at least 1.5, or you will be too weak. Each sub-characteristic is again divided into several sub-characteristics, which have their own functions. For instance, the maximum amount of weight you can carry is determined by your body strength.

Religion skills consist of faith, favor and alignment. Alignment is an indication whether your character is good or evil. Alignment is determined by the actions you perform. Some gods won’t accept your prayers if you are evil. Faith is a measure of how much your chosen god likes you, and how much power they bestow on you. Faith is increased by praying at an altar dedicated to your chosen god. Faith is capped at 30 for players who do not wish to become priests. Priests are dedicated to following the will of their god, and a priest has the ability to cast his or her gods spells at the cost of favor. Favor is the equivalent of mana in many other role playing games. Favor is regained over time, or a priest may sacrifice items to their god to regain favor.

The skills category is by far the most interesting as it lists all the skills available, as well as a number representing your expertise within that skill. As your skills increase you will find that the various tasks in the game become easier, and you will be able to make higher quality items. If your character dies, you can lose 0.25 points from 5 random skills, along with 0.25 fighting skill and 0.01 body strength. You will then see a 3x next to the skill, indicating that you will gain points at 3 times the normal rate in that skill until you reach your previous level (except for the fighting skill).
