The TriadCity Players' Guide
Exits
Exits are the physical connections that allow you to move from one
Room to the next.
In TriadCity, there are six cardinal directions: North, East, South,
West, Up, and Down. You may or may not be able to move in any of
these directions from your present location. It's the presence of
an Exit that makes this possible.
Exits can be physical things like doors, windows, or whatnot. But
you should think of them in more abstract terms, because they can
also be time tunnels, spiraling vortexes, or any number of other
things. Maybe the best approach is to think of an Exit as lack of
impediment which would prevent you from moving in a particular direction.
Not every Room has Exits. It's perfectly possible to get stuck in a
place with no way out. Not every Exit may be visible to you. Not
every Exit may allow you to cross it. Exits may be blocked or closed.
They may be locked, or they may require magic or a secret word to open.
You should note that in TriadCity, Exits are inherently one-directional.
This means that, although you can move through an Exit from one Room to
another, you should not expect that you'll necessarily be able to move
back to the original Room again. You might, you might not. Depends.
When you enter a Room, you'll be shown the Exits that are visible to
you. They appear at the bottom of the Room description, and look
something like this:
