Also, once you do this or start to do this you will be put in "low" spirits. You can do it again, however, if olivia puts you back in "high" spirits. Thus, it may be possible to do this several times in one day if you're really lucky. You can also do it again after you kill the red dragon.

Just type the name "jennie" while in the forest. You'll have to type blindly, the letters won't show up as you type them. If you see each letter followed by some kind of message as you try to type it, then either you've started to do it before or you are in low spirits. You'll know when it's working because the letters won't be echoed to the screen.

When you successfully type "jennie" you'll get the message "jennie? Jennie Garth? define her:"
Here is a list of what you can type and the result:

If you attack the dragon, you can use all your special skills against him. You might want to enter the "jennie" code "hott" and get extra hit points before you attack him. A fairy (see forest events) would also come in handy!

If you have the use points available, I recommend first using the light shield then the shatter. After this use Death Knight or Thieving skills. With good use of these tips it is fairly easy to defeat the dragon with only a blood sword and golden armor. It is sometimes possible to defeat him with crystal shard and magic protection. While having a fairy helps, it isn't always necessary.

Your name will be added Turgon's list of heroes which shows how many times players have killed the red dragon. If the game is not set to run indefinitely then you will "win" the game if your total "deeds" reaches the total shown on the configuration screen. (press 1 from the main menu).

Once you've killed the red dragon you may decide to climb the ladder and do it all over again or you might decide to hang around at level 2 or 3 and really annoy people. More on that in the "misc" section.

As I mentioned earlier, there are a number of events that can occur in the forest. These can happen when you look for something to kill. As mentioned earlier, sometimes nothing happens when you Look for something to kill. This may be an undefined event number, or it could be a result of Sethable's odd sense of humor. I'll let you decide for yourself which is more likely.

I will now list the known forest events in no particular order:

If you Ask for a blessing, you will receive one! The blessings are not usually very useful, including a healing, getting small amounts of gems or experience, etc. One blessing, however, is especially useful: A companion for your travels.

The companion is a horse. When you are on horseback you can go to the darkhorse tavern at will. Your remaining forest fights will increase 25%. Unless IGMs are installed, this is the only way you can get a horse. You don't lose your horse when you leave the game or when you are reset after defeating the red dragon. There is a way to lose your horse though.

During battle, your enemy may throw a "crystal" or something at you and your horse will sacrifice itself. You will then "pummel" your enemy with blows. Usually your enemy will then be dead. Sometimes your enemy will still survive, but with 0 HP. One more blow will finish him off. Then end result is that your enemy will be dead but you will lose your horse! Bummer. This usually happens against forest monsters but it *can* happen against the dragon, making it real easy to kill. It can also happen against your master or even an offline player. As far as I know, however, it cannot happen during an online duel.

If you boot her a distance you will sometimes be able to get some experience and a forest fight by playing head ball otherwise you can only apologize. The apology is never accepted.

If you ask her who she is (recommended) then you will gain a useful friend. In subsequent encounters one of several things can happen.

Most often you will get a choice between (G)etting inside her head and (A)sking for a kiss. If you get inside her head she will make a "Freudian slip" and tell you where to find the maiden/man (see maiden/man). If you Ask for kiss you will either be rebuffed or accepted, if you are accepted you will be in high spirits. If you are in low spirits or don't know whether you are in low or high spirits this will come in handy.

Sometimes Olivia will ask you if you want to mess around. If you do then usually you will get some experience and a note will appear in the daily log about how you walked out of the forest acting chipper. Despite what you may have heard, however, this does *not* put you in high spirits.

If you have a fairy, however, the results will be rather embarrassing! In the end you will lose your fairy, you'll get no experience, and a note will appear in the daily log about your fairy escaping.

After a few encounters Olivia will tell you more about her history and then the story will conclude with a message about the story being continued in an IGM called "Wizard Stone". At the time of this writing "Wizard Stone" has yet to see the light of day! According to Sethable, He put this in for a friend who was working on an IGM named Wizardstone, but gave up on it. Looks like we'll never know the rest of the story. Oh well, I guess it's like the lady and the tiger or the election at the end of the TV series "Benson". Perhaps several people will write their own conclusions and who knows, one of them might find it's way into a future version.

For female characters the experience with Olivia is a little different. Instead of (A)sking for a kiss you get the option of (C)onsoling her, which seems to work more reliably to put you in high spirits, but works only once per day. You also get the option of (D)oing her hair, which is basically equivalent to (A)sking for a kiss for male players.

The man/maiden will stay put until you leave the game or rescue him/her. If you haven't been clued in by Olivia you will probably want to just pick them in order until you get the right one or run out of forest fights, at which point you won't get any more chances to do the rescue. If you are successful the man/maiden will move to a new location at random. The new location could be any of the five choices, including the one where you just rescued the man/maiden, so don't think that he/she will always be somewhere else.

There are several things you can do here:
(B)uy a new weapon
(S)ell your weapon
(Y)our statistics
(R)eturn
Now for more detail:

The name of a weapon doesn't really matter, what counts is how much is added to your attack strength(offense) by having that weapon. With that in mind, I've prepared the following table:

You get experience for successfully flirting with violet, this is equal to the base exp shown in the table below times your level.

You can flirt with violet only once per day. If someone is currently married to violet you will get a message about her ugly sister grizelda. Female characters can't flirt with violet but instead have the option of flirting with Sethable under the {I} (H) command.

Ok, enough of that. Here are the various options and how much charm you need to get away with them:

If you marry Violet she will stay with you anywhere from 1 day to a couple of weeks depending on luck and your charm. During this time she may bear you one or more children, but in the end she will divorce you, though the log may say that you divorced her. Each child you have will give you one additional forest fight. Like horses, children can be lost when they get in your way in a fight. Unlike horses, children will wipe out 1/2 of your opponent's remaining hit points before getting killed.

When you become divorced from Violet your charm will drop to 50. Marriage to Violet lasts anywhere from 1 to 7 days under normal circumstances, though such marriages have, in rare cases, lasted 2 weeks or more.

Here is what you can get, in no particular order:

A healing
1-3 extra forest fights
a charm point
an extra user battle
1 more Max Hit Point
Your bank account doubled!

Usually the last one is considered the most useful and not surprisingly it seems to also be the rarest. You can successfully ask Sethable to sing only once per day.

Female characters can flirt with Sethable just as male characters can flirt with violet.
The following table shows what you can do, the charm needed to pull it off and the exp you get for doing it. As with flirting with Violet, you get the base exp times your level for a successful flirtation.

Note that this is similar to flirting with Violet, except that to marry Seth you need 120 charm and you get no experience for doing it. Also, when you get divorced from Seth your charm will drop to 30 instead of dropping to 50 as it does when you get divorced from Violet.

WARNING: If the amount of gold you transfer to another player causes their total to go much over 2 billion they will wind up with a negative amount of cash. This will usually be converted to 200 million. This is the most serious bug I've found in L.O.R.D.!

Gold left in the bank will accumulate 10% interest for each new day that you enter the game. Interest is paid only on days that you actually enter the game. If your account goes over 2 billion then you will usually get a notice about not having enough room in your bank to pay interest. Sometimes, however, the above mentioned bug is invoked.
