The TIE command can be used in a variety of contexts, including tying weapons to weapon straps with string, arranging a character's hair, and tying off gem pouches.

Usage and Syntax

Hair

>tie help
The TIE verb is primarily used for altering your own or another's hair.

Syntax:
TIE MY HAIR
TIE HAIR <PLAYER>

Please note that a player's demeanor can affect messaging and/or your ability to TIE their hair at all.  Your race can also affect messaging.

Related (hair) verbs: BRAID, UNBRAID, MUSS, UNTIE, PULL <SELF>, COMB, ARRANGE.

Gem Pouches

Tying a gem pouch converts the entire pouch into one item. This is very useful to help manage your inventory count, and also allows you to continue adding gems into a pouch above the normal maximum capacity of 70.

When you tie a gem pouch, all the individual gems inside it are destroyed and converted into a lump-sum monetary value. This process is irreversible so make sure there are no "keepers" in a pouch before you tie it. Also be careful if you have used STORE to designate a tied gem pouch as a STOW target; any new gems placed into a tied pouch will also be destroyed.

Tied gem pouches can be sold normally just like an untied pouch. After selling to a gem appraiser, the empty pouch will be returned to you untied.

  • Thieves cannot steal from a tied pouch.
  • Traders can UNTIE a tied gem pouch in order to split the value or combine it with another tied pouch. Note however that this does NOT recreate individual gems and the pouch remains tied.
