Sing command

Syntax

SING <text>. Separate each line by a semicolon. For example:

 SING The wind was a torrent of darkness;Among the gusty trees...

Others will see:

 [Character] sings in a [voice type] voice:
 
   "The wind was a torrent of darkness
    Among the gusty trees..."

Emotes

You can also add emotes to your singing. Note that, unlike other emotes, these do not require a slash (/) preceding them. Example:

 SING <emote> When the shower came a'calling;We were all a'stalling.

Emotes:

angrily       calmly         cautiously         cheerfully     coldly
confidently   coyly          curtly             darkly         dreamily
dryly         emphatically   enigmatically      excitedly      firmly
greedily      grumpily       guardedly          haggardly      happily
harshly       hauntingly     helplessly         hesitantly     hopefully
hopelessly    innocently     kindly             laughingly     longingly
loudly        lovingly       matter-of-factly   meekly         mischievously
mockingly     nervously      painfully          patiently      playfully
quietly       rancidly       regretfully        sadly          sarcastically
sheepishly    slowly         smugly             softly         sternly
sweetly       teasingly      tenderly           tiredly        weakly
wistfully     wryly

Vocal Ranges

All characters are randomly assigned a singing voice type (within the range dictated by race and gender), such as soprano, alto, or tenor. You can check your natural voice type with the PRACTICE VOICE command.

Bards with sufficient Vocals skill have access to all voice types for their gender regardless of race and can change their voice types at will with the PRACTICE VOICE <type> command. Non-Bards cannot change their voice types.

Usage Note

Using this command to draw attention to yourself (e.g., to sell something or ask for healing) is considered disruptive and may be abuse.

Bardic Enchantes

This command can also be used by Bards to start certain enchantes. Some enchantes specifically require singing. Syntax:

SING <enchante>
