11) Consent
You've already been briefly introduced to consent. The basic idea is that, in Castle Marrach, things can't happen to you without your agreeing to them. There are three main categories where consent is needed:
- When you move "near" someone
- When you duel someone
- When you trade objects with someone
You've already been introduced to the consensual dueling system. More information on approaching and trading follows.

Approaching & Being Approached
There are two ways that you can get near someone: either by typing "approach" twice for that person or by using a stance to move right up to that person ("stand by camille"). In either situation, the person you're approaching will be asked whether your approach is OK.
