Category: chargen & character info


View or set finger information about a character.

Usage:
+finger <character>
+finger/set <field>=<value>

The +finger command displays public information about a character,
including their RP preferences, online times, and other IC/OOC details.

Standard information shown includes:
- Character's full name and current activity status
- Player status (approved/unapproved) and alias
- Online times and pronouns
- RP preferences
- Character page information (played by, apparent age, RP hooks, soundtrack)
- Wiki page URL

To set your own finger information, use +finger/set:
+finger/set rp_preferences=Anything goes, but prefer dark themes
+finger/set online_times=8:30 or 9pm PDT Sunday-Saturday
+finger/set pronouns=She/They
+finger/set alias=Nic
+finger/set rumors=Apparently has connections to the Prince
+finger/set ic_job=Owner of The Lost and Found

Timezone Settings:
You can set your timezone using common abbreviations or location codes:
+finger/set timezone=PST (Pacific Standard Time)
+finger/set timezone=EST (Eastern Standard Time)
+finger/set timezone=GMT (Greenwich Mean Time)
+finger/set timezone=UTC (Coordinated Universal Time)

Or use location codes:
+finger/set timezone=US-East
+finger/set timezone=EU-Central
+finger/set timezone=Japan

You can create any custom field by using +finger/set <fieldname>=<value>.
Set a field to @@ to hide it.

Note: Some information like the wiki URL, played by, apparent age, RP hooks,
and soundtrack are automatically pulled from your character's page and cannot
be set using +finger/set.
