	'''Foraging''' enables a character to find various plants, such as herbs and flowers, in the natural environments of Elanthia. Certain plants only grow in certain environments, so in order to find a specific plant, one must ensure they are in the proper climate and terrain.

	The system is quite particular about the entry of the plant's name, and failing to send the proper syntax will still deplete one usage from the room temporarily. The adjective can be abbreviated, but the noun cannot. For example, if foraging for [[ephlox moss]], the command can be typed {{~~mono~~\|FORAGE EPH MOSS}}, however, {{~~mono~~\|FORAGE EPHLOX MOS}} will not find the ephlox moss, even if successful. Prepositions such as 'of' must be omitted ('a handful of oats' is found via {{~~mono~~\|FORAGE HANDFUL OATS}}). Sometimes an herb may have multiple adjectives; the rule of thumb is if the first adjective is a color, distinguishing it from other differently colored plants, then both adjectives must be used, whereas if the first adjective is not a color, it cannot be used to find the plant of interest.

			== Forage Slots ==

		⚫	Each room has five forage slots. When any character successfully forages for an item, the room's number of forage slots decreases by one. The room regenerates one forage slot at a randomized rate, approximately every 5-10 minutes. This is not on a per-herb basis; all forageable items in the room share these slots. [[Nature's Bounty]] with sufficient lore training (and certain auction-quality items) can be used to fully restore the forage slots in a room.
