Many different commands in Avaria can be targeted at another character, an item, or a room object. Most of these commands will work simply by using the syntax "<command> <target>", such as "look Aleph", "glare puddle", or "sit bench". But there are additional options for targeting that can produce more complicated emotes. In these cases the target must preceded by a special symbol: ~, $, or /. These symbols function as aliases for one another and can be used interchangeably depending on what the player is most accustomed to.
Examples
Free-form Emotes:
>emote looks down at her hands, studying /Aleph from beneath her lowered eyelashes.
You emote: Nemi looks down at her hands, studying Aleph from beneath her lowered eyelashes.
The target sees: Nemi looks down at her hands, studying you from beneath her lowered eyelashes.
>emote jerks sharply away from $inspector, shooting $her a dirty look.
You emote: Nemi jerks sharply away from a stout black-haired inspector, shooting her a dirty look.
The target sees: Nemi jerks sharply away from you, shooting you a dirty look.
Position Changing Emotes:
>sit bench (frowning towards ~firestriker)
You go to sit on a wooden bench, frowning towards a curved steel firestriker.
