ENCHANTER
(c) Infocom, Inc. 1983, 1984

Background
----------
In Enchanter, the first of a spellbinding series in the tradition of Zork, you
are a novice magician whom Fate has chosen to do single-handed combat with a
dark and fierce power. But wordly weapons will avail you naught, for your foe is
the Evil Warlock who holds sway over the land. 

To defeat him, you will have to match your skills as a necromancer against his,
casting spells you have learned from your masters in the Circle of Enchanters
and other incantations you will acquire as you proceed on your quest. 

If you succeed, you will be elevated to a seat in the illustrious Circle; if you
fail, your land will be doomed to an eternity of darkness. 

Essential Information
---------------------
Type |CPM to load Enchanter.

At the start of the game, you are carrying a spell book. Type READ SPELL BOOK to
see which spells you can cast, and what they do. You will find scrolls during
your adventure; read them and write the spells they contain into your spell book
by typing GNUSTO <spell>. Once you have written the spell in your spell book,
you can memorise the spell by typing LEARN <spell>. However, you can only
memorise a small number of spells at a time, and once you cast a spell, you will
forget it and will have to memorise it again. Typing SPELLS reveals which spells
you have memorised and how many times they can be used before you forget them.
However, some spells are too powerful to be written down by a wizard of limited
experience such as you.
