Game Help: Emotes
EMOTES are a way to express yourself, your actions, and your feelings, and are often used to enhance your roleplaying experience by interacting with other players and the world around you in a more immersive way. Pre-Defined Emotes For convenience, we have a number of generic, pre-defined emotes available. These include common actions and interactions such as SMILE, LAUGH, POUT, and CRY. When you use one of these emotes, other players in your location will see something such as: Alora bursts into a cheerful laugh. Read HELP GREET to learn how the GREET command can be used to initiate interactions with NPCs in a more immersive way. To view the full set of available default emotes, type EMOTE LIST. Custom Emotes In addition to pre-defined emotes, players can also send custom emotes to act in a more specific way befitting of your character. To use a custom emote, type EMOTE <text>. You can also use the possessive form of your name by using EMOTE 's <text>. Example: You type: emote tilts her head and looks at you curiously Others See: Alora tilts her head and looks at you curiously. You type: emote 's eyes light up with excitement Others see: Alora's eyes light up with excitement. You type: ems eyes light up with excitement Others see: Alora's eyes light up with excitement. Targetting Emotes Both players and items in your location can be referenced in custom emotes. Simply use @target (ex. @alora or @chair) to target another player or item. The targeted player will see "you" instead of their name. Examples: You type: emote tilts her head and looks at @delax curiously Others See: Alora tilts her head and looks at Delax curiously. Delax Sees: Alora tilts her head and looks at you curiously. You type: emote tilts her head and looks at @painting curiously Others See: Alora tilts her head and looks at a landscape painting curiously. Future Plans We have a few additional features planned for further customisation of emotes, however they just didn't quite make the cut for phase one priority. These plans include the ability to use pronouns for targeted emotes and the ability to prepend words to an emote so that they do not always have to start with your name. Please feel free to SUGGEST any further thoughts or ideas you have to improve our emote system!
