Just look through this guide. ================== Edit Statistics [a1eg_edst] ================== This option will allow you to edit the statistics of the chosen character. You can edit skills by pressing the Up/Down Buttons next to each skill. Clicking the skill will give a description of that skill. Character Traits can be modified by clicking on the boxes next to each skill. Please remember you cannot have more than 2 of each trait and for every equipped trait you will either need more or less experience to gain a level. Known Potions can be changed by selecting/deselecting the box next to each recipe. Mage/Priest Spells can be edited by clicking on the box next to each spell. When the spell is a level one spell there will be one rune next to the box, when the spell is level two there will be two runes and so on. If there are no runes it means you haven't learnt the spell yet. ============= Do Healing [a1eg_dohl] ============= Clicking on this option will heal the character. =========== Energize [a1eg_dohl] =========== Clicking on this option will restore the character's Spell Points. ================= Identification [a1eg_iden] ================= Clicking on an unidentified item in a characters inventory will cause that item to become identified.
