EMOTE

This command lets you "fake" socials. Basically, what happens is that a line of text is displayed in the room that consists of your name followed by whatever is in text.

Example:

emote thinks the sky is blue

Everyone else in the room would see "Darryl thinks the sky is blue" if your name was darryl.

The [color type] field lets you color your emote in the corresponding color that you pick. This will allow you to better fool your target into thinking that whatever you typed was for real. Example, if you were going to do a social emote, enter "emote social text" (but social is the default so that is a bad example). Another example, if you wanted to fake a tell, do:

emote tell tells you 'I love you!'

That way, everyone in the room will see the emote in THEIR "tell" color so that they won't be able to tell that your emote was a fake simply because it is the wrong color. NOTE: You cannot abbreviate the keywords in this case, you must type them exactly as they appear under 'help color-types'.

SMART EMOTE EXTENSION

If, in your text, you include a person's name, the mud will parse your emote differently. An example will best illustrate this:

emote gives %puff% the evil eye.

Puff would see "Darryl gives you the evil eye." everyone else would see "Darryl gives Puff the evil eye." If you use the possessive form, as in:

emote tries to steal %puff's% gold.

Puff would see "Darryl tries to steal your gold." everyone else sees "Darryl tries to steal Puff's gold."
