Desdaemona Commands
Along with keeping the Inn's accounts and slaves in line, Desdaemona also functions as the supervisor for many functions in IRC. Upon a character's registration and Op-approval, it is a good idea to login with her (use the command '/msg Desdaemona !login <password> [character name]' - see below for details of use). This 'logging in' allows Des to keep track of a character for advancement purposes and allows access to a list of commands related to the world of TLI. The list of commands Desdaemona responds to are below.
Please note...
Parameters where we specify <...> in commands means you substute the <...> with the suggested information. An example would be '!login <password>' would instead be '!login thisismypassword', '!login 12345', or similar. As they are part of the parameter example, do not enter the < or > signs either.
Parameters in [...] function just like <...> with the difference being they are optional. Using the !login command as an example again. '!login <...> [Character name]' can be replaced with '!login 12345 JimBob', or you can use '!login 12345' and Des will log you in using your IRC nick if both password and nick matches the registered character's password and name.
Many commands can only be used while logged in, such commands are marked by an asterisk (*) sign.
Some commands have multiple ways to be used, like !choose or !choice can be used for the same command, these variations (if any) will be listed at the end of the command's description.
Finally, some commands can only be done in private messages with Desdaemona (/msg Desdaemona <command>), used in the public IRC channels that Desdaemona oversees, with a few that can be done in either. These commands will be listed as 'private', 'public', or 'either' respectively.
