NARRATE, SHOUT, TALES


If you want to tell a tale to all the other players in the game, narrate it. All the players wanting to hear such things will receive it and all the players who don't want to be disturbed won't. You can choose to receive tales from other players using the command listen tales.

These communication channels are not completely global, as they are restricted to either players of the same race, or at least to players of the same side of the war between Good and Evil.

The narrate channel is meant primarily for in-game communication. Discussions about music, movies, computers, sports and other RL related issues generally don't belong there.

If you are asked by other player(s) to take your discussion to the songs channel, you are required to do so.

shout is an alias for narrate. The output of narrate is influenced by the comprehension level of the language that is being used.

Example:

  > narrate Is it safe to travel from Bree to Fornost?

See also: TELL, YELL, LISTEN, SING, IGNORE

What is MUME?

MUME, Multi-Users in Middle-earth, is a multiplayer text-based online game based upon J. R. R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth during the epic wars of the late Third Age between the forces of the Dark Lord and the armies of the Free peoples. MUME is completely at no cost and has been continuously running, expanded, and remastered by a community of volunteers since 1991.
