28.12 Customising Avalon's prompt.
Avalon has a command only used by the most experienced and regular fighters (it is quite confusing to the inexperienced). Type FULLPROMPT ON (or FULLPROMPT OFF to reverse it) and, every time you receive an Avalon input prompt (usually a dash), it will be preceded by single letters according to which basic defences you have about your person. This is particularly useful to ensure you have immunity to poisons, or are waxing with kelventari, or have blinded yourself. You may also use FULLPROMPT INFO which, in addition to the letter codes on your prompt, will also display your current health and mana - so that you can be constantly aware of your state of health. Below is a list of letters and the defence they correspond to. You may also type BATTLEMODE while in Avalon. This will set up your fullprompt, concentrate you on your own battles (reducing the amount of text that comes through to you at times of frantic action) and place your health and mana on your prompt, so that you can see quickly and easily how your character is doing in a battle.

e Equilibrium l Levitated i Immunity

p Potion Satiated h Allhealed w Webbed up
v Candescent Veil c Cloak of Protection a Alkared
y Right Unbalance z Left Unbalance
You should aim to maintain 'c', 'f', 'e', and 'x' on your prompt at all times if you are using Fullprompt. These are the most basic of defences and will enhance your chance at surviving attack when venturing outside the safety of your home city.
