Verb:REGISTER
REGISTER is a verb mainly used to register items and their properties into a database. It is also used to select a surname at each respective town's clerk. This article currently addresses REGISTER with regards to items.
One should register every item of importance to him or her. Items may be REGISTERed anywhere, but players can only find out who an item is registered to in the REGISTRAR'S OFFICE, located in every major town. These offices are located in the administrative buildings such as Moot Hall in Wehnimer's Landing.

[Registrar's Office, Booth]
You've entered a space which is wedged between two rows of filing cabinets and sectioned off by a heavy brocade curtain. In it is a simple modwir desk with an elderly clerk sitting behind it, peering over the mounds of paper which surround him. He snorts to himself once, mutters something under his breath, then returns to work. You also see an elderly clerk and a neatly-lettered sign.
Obvious exits: none
>register
Usage:
- REGISTER {item} - Record the details of an item in your registration record
- REGISTER INFO {item} - Get information on the most recent registration of an item
>register info kna
The elderly clerk says, "Ah, yes. I recognize that item. One moment, please." The clerk rummages through some papers on the desk and finally pulls one out. "It would seem that your knapsack there was last registered to XXXX."
In the event of item loss due to a game bug GameMasters will replace items using the information contained in the registration database. Thus, whenever an item is altered by a merchant, or another player, it should be re-registered. This includes further enchanting, ensorcellment, alteration, lightening and deepening. Most merchants will register an item under your character before returning it to you when working on it, but not always.
One can INSPECT an item to see how long ago it was registered.
Whether an item is registered will appear in parentheses after an item in a locker manifest.
