Syntax: FEATS.

Shows you the feats of grean renown you have accomplished and the overall achievements quantifiable and your standing in reputation, stature and potential/developing Avalon "legend".

NOTE: while past experiences and deeds and quests attained steadily accumulate for all Avalonians based on their history, including senior characters catching up with achievements of yore (see HELP TYPES) the acquisition of a FEAT if it was something accomplished previously must be judged by a God or Goddess. Ask and ye shall receive. The deities have ways of checking up on all character histories in enough detail to judge these matters.

What are crucible conditions?

Very simple really. It's when the opposition is as determined as you are and the stakes are high enough that winning and losing is a matter of worldwide import or permanence so all those involved on frontline care enough and try hard enough that conditions are like a crucible where pure metal passes through the flame to smelt away impurities. It is an Avalon paradigm - the game aspires to be the crucible and though there are many processes - all must bring enough heat to separate all that is gold from the accumulated detritus of time passed in other conditions.

Feats build legends. See HELP LEGEND, HELP SENIORITY and HELP STANDINGS. Oh, and HELP DEEDS, HELP DUTIES, HELP BADGES, HELP EXPERIENCES and HELP MOSAIC making up a fascinating profile of all character lives in the realm.
