As is typical of most TriadCity commands, Beckon searches for <thing> in a specific order, starting with the room you're in, then your worn or wielded equipment, then your inventory. So, if there's a box in the room, and a box in your inventory, the command "beckon box" will refer to the one in the room, not your inventory. You'd need to use "beckon 2.box" for the latter.

Beckon can be modified with an arbitrary word of your choice. Usually you'll use an intensifying adverb as shown in the examples above. Note that Beckon does not use this modifier as a search specifier when looking for <thing>. Instead Beckon displays this modifier via the Game channel. Thus you can "beckon impatiently", "beckon urgently", and so on. You can also "beckon 18373649" or "beckon toothpaste-like", so, please don't. It's up to you to get the syntax right.
