Experience points, often referred to as exp or xp for short, are a tangible measure of the experiences a character has accumulated in Avaria. Experience points may be spent to acquire or raise the many different skills which characters have access to. The only way to earn xp in Song of Avaria is to engage in roleplay -- all experience is gained through in-character interactions, posts, and storylines.
Usage
A character's experience points can be viewed using the command INFO, SCORE, or STATS.
Experience and enjoyment
You should keep in mind that while earning experience and boosting a character's skills is fun and rewarding, skills are not the end-all be-all of your time in Avaria. You will never miss out on storyline involvement or be excluded from plots based on your character's skill levels, although they may of course affect the options that are available to the character in a given situation.
