Highlanders are the masters of combat. They excel with any weapon that has a
sharp edge or end, and can make new weapons superior to those used by most
other people.
To make your way through the universe as a -=Highlander=-, there is only a single
requirement. You must suffer your first death at the hands of a highlander in the
highlander temple. (Also known as the forge)
You may also utilize the AUTOCLASS feature that we have. Please see the AUTOCLASS
help file for more information.
The most important thing to know about a highlander is each of their 'weapons'
that they can create uses their attack types. 'Slice', 'Slash', 'Chop', and 'Pierce',
then later on 'claw' can all be trained to 1000. This directly correlates with your
hitroll, damroll and AC. This can make leveling as a Highlander difficult as you
don't have any of your weapon skills trained up - so don't just dive into it!
Note: The highlander must use 'quickening' to kill you - otherwise it will
just count as a pkill, and you will no longer be able to become a highlander.
Some helpful commands that a Highlander may need to know are as follows:
<'Upkeep'> - Shows a breakdown of each type of quickening you have.
<'Powers'> - Shows each power you currently have to use at your disposal.
<'Train'> - Shows the same things as before, but also shows which highlander
powers are at your disposal to train.
<'Forge'> - This shows the syntax for forging Highlander Armour and Weapons.
You are now ready for 'Help highlander_weapons' for the next steps in your
Highlander training.
