Pumpkin Town

Nurse Vicki
  • She tells us how to get healed: tea from witches (heal up quicker), tear clothes into bandages (heal quicker), get curing ritual from priests, use wands from wizards, drink blue water from the gods.
Warrior
  • Headcrusher says: At first, you might like to concentrate on training with one particular weapon. There are advantages and disadvantages to all weapon types and as you get more experienced with combat you'll be able to find one that suits your fighting style.
  • Headcrusher says: There are three methods of defence: dodging, parrying and blocking. Dodging generally suits those with greater dexterity, while blocking is for those with more strength, especially since you need to hold a shield to block with. Parry is a good in-between defence skill for those with moderate strength and good dexterity.
Witch
  • Flying on a broomstick, teas and potions, spells.

MUSHClient

Got the following message:

> 

Quow's Cow Bar Notice:
Unable to detect the ASCII map from the MUD... 
If your ASCII map window continues not to work repeatedly, things you can try are:
Your 'term' might need resetting, or 'options output map' settings need changing to 'top'
You should also consider doing 'options output shortinlong=on' and 'prompt off' to help the plugin process game text more easily.
These things and more can be set by typing 'minimap discworldconfig' which changes many Disc-side settings for you.
