Groups of characters are good to have, if you want to go on a big adventure. Groups are often safer, as you are protected by other group members. When someone in a group and they get experience, the amount is shared among the group members according to the members levels. To form a group, you start by figuring out who is to be the leader. The leader is going to get beat up the most, so make a good choice. Then all who want to be in the group will have to follow the leader. This alone does not make a person part of the group. The leader will have to make each person which is following him member of the group, like 'group papi' which will make papi a member. To kick a player out of the group, you just type the same thing. To stop the player you jusst kicked out of the group from following you, you may ditch them. If you would like to see who is in the group, you just type 'group' with no arguments.
An entire law system is built into Valhalla. All players and all monsters belonging to any major cities, castles and villages are protected by the law. You are not allowed to kill or steal from people which are protected, unless they are caught in the act of stealing or killing PROTECTED characters.
If you witness a crime you can accuse the person which committed the crime at the city guard Captain. The Captain is usually located at the city guard headquarters. If a protected npc witness a crime it will walk to the captain and accuse the offender.
If you have committed a certain number of crimes the guards may attempt to arrest you. Once they handcuff you it is possible to attempt an escape by typing 'break' to attempt breaking the handcuffs.
If you have committed several crimes after having been declared 'wanted' you will be 'wanted dead or alive'. This means that you are no longer protected by the law system. At this point there will be a reward on your head, offering both money and experience for your death. All guards attack on sight. Players are allowed to kill you.
Once in jail you have to wait for some pretty strong friends to free you or for a long time to pass.
Your misdeeds are forgotten if you get killed or when you have served
your jail sentence. But beware *any* crime reported after being cleared
will make you a criminal instantly.
