Basics

Now that you are more familiar with the interface, it is time to take a walk and get to know the town around you. Depending on your starting location, you are now inside the local Inn or the city Bank .

Inns & Banks

Inns act as lodging places for travelers who seek shelter to rest safely. They are safe places where you can log out instantaneously.

Banks provide a place of storage, also known as the bank box. To open your bank box you must first visit a bank. Most cities have one, usually found in a central location. When you are close enough to a banker or minter NPC, say "bank" to open your box. You can also open it by using a context menu on the NPC.

Context Menu & NPCs

The term Context Menu refers to a menu accessed by single clicking on something (or holding down shift, then single clicking on something, if one has selected the option to handle it that way). Several game mechanics can be accessed this way.

A Non-Player Character (NPC) is any character that is not controlled by a player. The term's polar opposite is Player Character. Although not controlled by players, monsters and animals are not generally considered NPCs. Hostile NPCs are sometimes categorized with other creatures or monsters. Typical examples of NPCs include: Bankers, Minters, Healers, Vendors and Guards.
