9.33 WOODLORE

Woodlore is a skill composed of four types of abilities:
   Setting traps
   Summoning animal guardians
   Survival abilities


TRAPS
-----
 - Each trap is constructed of commodities. When laying a trap, you must have
   the required commodities (listed in the AB HELP files) in your inventory.

 - Traps get laid in directions. The general syntax is LAY <trap> <direction>.

 - Traps are set off _only_ by those on your enemies list. They will be set
   off when someone either enters or leaves the room by the direction you
   specified.

 - Some traps will stop movement when sprung. For instance, if you are leaving
   a room with a snare trap in it set to the direction you are leaving, you
   will set off the snare before you leave the room, and it will prevent you
   from moving.


ANIMAL GUARDIANS
----------------
 - The animals you summon may be ordered about with the commands in 
   HELP DENIZENS.

 - If you leave Achaea and do not come back quickly, they will disappear back
   into the forest.

 - You may call your summoned animals to you with CALL ANIMALS.

 - You may CALL ANIMALS PASSIVE to call them back to you in passive form, if
   they are aggressive.

 - You may DISMISS <animal> to return a summoned animal to the wild.


SURVIVAL ABILITIES
------------------
 - These abilities assist you in surviving out on your own.
