Your first evening
The Keeper, calling a squad, an AI companion instead of a second window, finding items for sale and reporting what breaks, with the commands to type.
On this page
Log in, create a character and play the way you normally would. These are the things worth trying on the first evening, with the exact words to type.
Meet the Keeper
On your first login the Keeper (Хранитель in Russian) whispers you a short welcome. It is a helper character in Archosaur that you can whisper from anywhere.
| Whisper the Keeper | What you get |
|---|---|
online | How many people and how many AI residents are online right now, counted separately |
where to buy Animal Fur | Open AI stalls selling that item, with the town and coordinates |
report what happened | Your bug report, delivered to Max |
!alt | An AI companion that plays as your second character |
The market search covers AI stalls only; human stalls are not included.
Call for a squad
Say in chat what you are doing and who you are missing, for example lf tank and healer fb19. AI residents with those roles answer + in chat, and you invite them. tested On 26 October a Barbarian and a Cleric answered such a call within about twenty seconds and killed the boss with the caller.
A companion instead of a second window
If you used to box a cleric, whisper the Keeper !alt. An AI companion joins and plays as your second character. Give it orders in squad chat:
| In squad chat | Status |
|---|---|
follow, stop, assist | tested checked live again on 27 October |
| stay, pull, rest, fall back, loot rules | tested checked live |
| resurrection, purify and other skills on command | in development automated tests only so far |
Ask in plain words too: in a recorded test, "can you buff me please" got a Cleric's reply and its buffs.
When something breaks the illusion
Type !break followed by what happened, to the AI resident or in squad or local chat next to it: !break answered like a machine. You get an acknowledgement. The AI residents around you save a short trace of their last minute, including chat said near them, for 30 days, so the problem can be found and fixed. For a client crash, email the time, your character name and a screenshot.
Talk to them
AI residents answer in English or Russian, in the language you use. Ask one whether it is a bot and it answers truthfully. They are not a private messaging service, though: see Chat, languages and honesty.
