SYNTAX EXAMPLES
1. manicure <target> 1. manicure guard
2. manicure <target> <specifier> 2. manicure guard tall
3. manicure <specifier> <target> 3. manicure tall guard
4. manicure <n>.<target> 4. manicure 2.guard

USE:

  1. Use form one when there's no possible ambiguity. In the example, there's only one guard in the current room.
  2. Use form two or three when more information is needed to interpret the command — that is, there's more than one possible target by the same name to which the command could be applied. In the example, there's a tall guard, a short guard, a skinny guard, etc.
  3. Use form two or three when more information is needed to interpret the command — that is, there's more than one possible target by the same name to which the command could be applied. In the example, there's a tall guard, a short guard, a skinny guard, etc.
  4. Use form four when there are many instances of <target> present, and you want to manicure one of them in particular.

There are many conditions which could prevent you from being able to manicure a particular target. You may be too tired, or paralyzed, or unable to perceive the target. The Game channel will inform you of the outcome of your command.

As with many other TriadCity commands, your expertise with the Manicure Skill will determine how effective your attempts to use the Manicure command will be.

Because the command is enabled for "natural language" parsing, you can use all kinds of variations and still be understood. "Manicure the second guard", "manicure the 2nd guard", "manicure 2nd guard", "manicure 2.guard" and many others will all do fine.

"[...] the adventure game adds an interesting case to the discussion of narratological concepts and posits an alternative structure of articulating events and existents, one that may help us see these objects more clearly divorced from their usual narrative surroundings than has so far been possible."
