Emotes

Emotes are commands that are entered on the chat line. All commands are prefaced by '/'. Emotes can also be activated by clicking on the chat bubble and making a selection from the emote menu.

You can perform a custom emote by using the /me or /em command on the chat line. This has no animation, but allows you to supply your own emote text. You can also override the default message for any of the other emotes by specifying additional text after the emote on the command line.

The first line of text is the output of the emote when nothing is selected. The second line of text is the output when a character is selected.

Unless otherwise noted, the emotes have a corresponding character animation.
