\\ Language on Sundering Shadows\\ \\ The concept behind language on Sundering Shadows is to enhance the\\ RP of the game. I always pick on ogres, so why stop here, IE:\\ if I'm an ogre with a 5 intelligence how can I have an intelligent\\ conversation with a dwarf and elf and a human, non of whom know\\ ogrish? Languages affect all forms of inter-personal communication.\\ More than likely the debate concerning languages on public lines will\\ go on forever. If you have any knowledge of a language it will appear\\ in your command list. The number next to the language listing\\ is the proficiency with which you speak the language. IE I understand about\\ 45% of the language (etc etc). The number in () is the progress toward a\\ greater understanding. IE I'm about 65% of the way to understanding this\\ new facet of the language.\\ Currently you receive languages by intelligence. Intelligence determines\\ how many you can learn. We are debating some kind of supplementing system.\\ For the moment you can only learn as many as your intelligence allows.\\ You learn languages from other folk who know the language well and have\\ the inclination to teach you. To teach someone you use the command.\\ To set what language you speak in use the command.\\ See also: speech, say, speak, teach, languages
