Information: start - getting started in the LPmud Nemesis

Description:
	Basically what you want to do is get experience and gold coins.
	You do this by solving puzzles, killing monsters, and selling
	(after finding) treasures.

	You can move around with normal 'n' ('north'), 'w' ('west'), 's'
	('south'), 'e' ('east'), 'u' ('up'), 'd' ('down') types of commands.

	There are also longer commands, like 'get shield', 'wear shield',
	'wield axe', and commands that are for specific places or objects
	like 'push button', 'open safe', 'eat cake' and so on.

	Killing monsters is a lot easier with a weapon and some armour
	(and realize that you must wield and wear those, respectively).
	If the monster doesn't attack you first, you can type something
	like 'kill orc' and you'll start fighting.

	Food and drinks will help you to heal faster after combats.

	A more detailed how-to about playing Nemesis is available here:
