Say

The say command is the primary means of communication in Armageddon MUD. When text is spoken with say, it is assumed to be 'in character' and is translated through language filters for each listener. No matter how poorly your character actually says a sentence, you will always be shown the exact text that you typed; only listeners will hear the true pronunciation.

Always use say for any communication that can be done in character, which should include virtually every instance.

You can include an optional description of how your character is saying something by using '-' (if it's a single word) or by including the description in parentheses (for one or more words).

Syntax:

say <message>

say -<option> <message>

say (<option>) <message>

Examples:

> say Hello, stranger.

> say -quietly Hello, stranger.

(This is equivalent to "say (quietly) Hello, stranger.")

> say (in a crackling voice) Hello, stranger.

> say (pointing at ~tree) Hey, look, an agafari tree!

Note:

You can use "'" (a single apostrophe) in place of the actual word "say" when trying to say something.
