The SING verb will allow a character to sing a song. Similar to RECITE, the lyrics will appear indented with blank lines between the message and the previous and following command lines so that everyone in the room can easily see it. It is used in conjunction with SONG, which controls the tone of the song.
SING is also used to CAST a bard spellsong, although CAST and INCANT can still be used. Once a bard sings a spellsong (or multiple spellsongs), it will automatically renew until the bard STOPs singing. SONG STATUS will tell the bard which songs are currently being sung that will automatically renew and how much mana the bard must have to renew them.
Tip: Use ` (grave mark) for apostrophes. They appear straight in game.
