Another self-examination command is the STATUS or STAT command. STAT lists information much like SCORE does, though of a different nature: Your [[Status]] tells you the current status or state of your character. Are you are dressed? Drunk perhaps? Tired or hungry, after a long day perhaps? and a few other useful bits. Along the same vein is the STAT STATS command, which lists your adventurer and denizen kill statistics. Examples of both STAT versions can be found at our page on [[Status]].

You can view your personal description with the LOOK SELF command, or a number of variants such as LOOK ME, LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT SELF, LOOK MYSELF, and LOOK AT MYSELF. This returns the physical description you may have written, as well as your race, clothing, and any Divine favours you might have. You can set your description by using DESCRIBE SELF <description>, but remember that the first few words cannot be removed (i.e. "He is a frog-like Grook and is "). See [http://www.achaea.com/irex/helpview/help.php?q=DESCRIPTION HELP DESCRIPTION] for more information.

In order to assess your defences, simply use the DEFENCES command. This returns a list of each defense currently upon you. These differs from afflictions, which are generally unwanted and detrimental. Defenses may be gained or lost depending on your actions and your particular defences. For example, the defence line for myrrh is "Your mind is racing with enhanced speed", and it is obtained by eating myrrh.
