Crayons can be drawn with by interacting with them and selecting {{Qud text|&Wd&yraw}}. This prompts for a drawing subject, specified as a string of text, and a direction. The text input is discarded and one of the objects in the indicated direction relative to the cell the crayons are in changes its detail color to a random color, chosen from {{Qud char|&R|R}}, {{Qud char|&W|W}}, {{Qud char|&G|G}}, {{Qud char|&B|B}}, {{Qud char|&M|M}}, {{Qud char|&C|C}}, and {{Qud char|&Y|Y}} (the same colors as are in the word “crayons” in the item's display name). | Crayons can be drawn with by interacting with them and selecting {{Qud text|&Wd&yraw}}. This prompts for a drawing subject, specified as a string of text, and a direction. The text input is discarded and one of the objects (not necessarily the visible one) in the adjacent cell in the indicated direction relative to the cell the crayons are in changes its detail color to a random color, chosen from {{Qud char|&R|R}}, {{Qud char|&W|W}}, {{Qud char|&G|G}}, {{Qud char|&B|B}}, {{Qud char|&M|M}}, {{Qud char|&C|C}}, and {{Qud char|&Y|Y}} (the same colors as are in the word “crayons” in the item's display name). | ||
There is a 1 in 500 chance for a box of crayons to be “nanocrayons”, whose effect is completely different from ordinary crayons. Drawing with nanocrayons attempts to match the text input against an item blueprint, similarly to the appropriate [[Wishes|wish]]. If it finds a blueprint, a popup appears that says "{{Qud text|The picture stretches into the 3rd dimension and becomes real.}}" and the requested object is spawned. This consumes the nanocrayons. (Failing to spawn an object with the nanocrayons does not consume them.) | There is a 1 in 500 chance for a box of crayons to be “nanocrayons”, whose effect is completely different from ordinary crayons.
