Synopsis: assess the toughness of a creature
Usage: consider <monster>
consider
With this command you can get some information about how tough a
creature is compared to you. You should always use this before
engaging unknown creatures in battle.
When you are finished considering a creature you will gain variable
amounts of information concerning that creature depending on your
talent in 'consider'. Even with very low levels in 'consider' you will
almost always gain information about your hit point advantage or
disadvantage compared to the creature and your chances of defeating
the creature on combat. The chance is based on your relative fighting
prowess, mainly combat skills.
If there is only a single monster present to consider, you can just
type 'consider' and the command will guess who you mean.
This command uses the talent 'consider'.
