View source for Looking

Look at things by pressing 'l'.

Press 'l' and scroll around to look at things. Looking at something can tell you a great deal about it. 

For example, looking at a creature will
tell you the creature's name, physical description, approximate health, equipment worn, your chance of defeating it in combat, and its attitude toward you.

Simply looking at {{qud shader|engraved|engraved}} or {{qud shader|painted|painted}} objects, {{favilink|Sultan shrine|shrines}}, village [[Properties#Occluding_Statues_and_Monuments|monuments]], or even tattooed villagers can reveal village histories, [[sultan histories]], and [[Historic site|historical site]] locations.
