			There are multiple ways in which the word '''script''' is used within GemStone.
	A '''script''' is generally a special action associated with an item that is activated by means of a [[verb]]. Items which possess ''scripts'' are referred to as being ''scripted'' or ''scripted items''. This term is considered to be [[out of character]] (OOC), and should not be used in-game. A common in-game alternative to ''scripted'' is ''actioned'' or ''zested'', although whether or not these terms are more or less OOC is up for debate.

	~~Scripts~~ can be '''ambient''' (happening without any player-item interaction), or triggered via '''verb traps'''. Common verb traps include [[RUB]], [[TAP]], and [[WAVE]]. An item will have unique messaging for each of its ~~verb~~ ~~traps~~.		Script can refer to the common code applied to a set of similar items which gives them some extra flavor outside of merely being an object which can be held or worn. These sort of scripts can refer to either a [[:Category:Mechanical item scripts\|mechanical item script]] or a [[:Category:Fluff_item_scripts\|fluff item script]]. Item scripts can have ''ambient'' components (happening without any player-item interaction) or be triggered via ''verb traps''. Common [[verb]] traps include {{boldmono\|[[RUB]]}}, {{boldmono\|[[TAP]]}}, and {{boldmono\|[[WAVE]]}}. An item will have unique messaging for each of its verbs that are trapped. Items which have had a script applied are referred to as being scripted, actioned, or zested. These terms are considered to be [[out of character]] (OOC).

	~~"Script"~~ ~~can~~ ~~also~~ ~~refer~~ to a ~~complicated~~ mechanical benefit(s) that also ~~works~~ in combination with verb traps. ~~Examples~~ of this include the wand holder of a [[wand-holding runestaff]], [[rotflares]], and [[Voln armor]]. These are ~~often~~ referred to as ~~'''~~functional scripts.~~'''~~		* A ''mechanical item script'' confers some mechanical benefit(s), such as boosting combat [[stat]]s, [[skill]]s, or abilities, that sometimes also work in combination with verb traps. A few examples of this include the wand holder of a [[wand-holding runestaff]], [[rotflares]], and [[Voln armor]]. These are sometimes also referred to as functional scripts.
			* A ''fluff item script'' confers no mechanical benefits, but instead enhances [[roleplaying]] by providing extra verb traps, feature alteration, or some other benefit that doesn't enhance [[experience]] gain in any way.

			Script can also refer to [[StormFront]] or [[Lich (software)\|Lich]] scripts.
