Dancers and Musicians are able to perform in order to entertain and provide valuable services to their patrons. These services include the ability to give Mind buff enhancements, heal mind wounds, and heal battle fatigue.

Fundamentals of Dance

When you begin to dance, your most basic command is /startdance. This will bring up a popup window that gives you a list of the dances you currently know. To start a dance without the popup, type in /startdance + the dance name, for example: /startdance basic

After you begin to dance, you will be able to flourish your avatar, causing him or her to do various moves in the dance. There are eight possible flourishes per dance. You may flourish by using the command /flourish and choosing a number of 1-8. (e.g. /flourish 5)

Fundamentals of Music

When you begin to play, your most basic command is /startmusic. This will bring up a popup window that gives you a list of the songs you currently know. You must have your instrument equipped before you may begin playing music. To start a song without the popup, type in /startmusic + the song name, for example: /startmusic starwars1

After you begin playing, you will be able to flourish your avatar, causing him or her to do various moves in the performance as well as changing the song's sound. There are eight possible flourishes per song. You may flourish by using the command /flourish and choosing a number of 1-8. (e.g. /flourish 5)

The Performance-based professions are paired in Entertainer with Image Design. Image Designers can alter the features of any player avatar.

Fundamentals of Image Design

To begin an Image Design session, you must be grouped with the person you are Image Designing. Your most basic command is /imagedesign. This will bring up the ID User Interface (UI) where you will be able to tab through the various panes to view which things you can currently change about people.

• • note** Not all species or genders have things you can ID at first (the ones without hair or makeup options).

You may Image Design yourself by using the command /imagedesign self OR by keying CTRL+1 to select yourself and using /imagedesign

Where can Entertainers practice their art?

All Entertainer skills can be used anywhere in the galaxy, but the performance-based Entertainers cannot benefit their customers everywhere.

NPC venues for Mind enhancements are Cantinas, Hotels, Theaters, and Taverns.

At least one of these performance venues can be found in every NPC city, and many have two or even three performance venues.

What about player owned buildings?

Performers can apply Mind enhancements in Player Houses, Med Centers, Cantinas, and Theaters

Are there venues for Image Designers?

While Image Designers may enjoy their craft anywhere in the galaxy without limitation, there are 4 Image Design Tents scattered throughout the galaxy in Theed, Moenia, Bestine, and Coronet. You may find the closest ID tent with /find salon.

When can I place my own Cantina? You must be a Master Dancer, Master Musician, or Master Chef to place a cantina. You may only place it in a level 2 city (Village) or above.

When can I place my own Theater? Player Theaters may be placed only by Master Dancers and Master Musicians, and only in level 4 cities (City) or above.

What will happen to my Cantina or Theater if the city goes away? Your structure will remain as normal, even if the city shrinks or goes away entirely. However, if you redeed it, you will have to find another city of the proper size in order to place it again.

What will happen to my Cantina or Theater if I drop Master Dancer, Master Musician, or Master Chef? Your structure will remain as normal, however you will not be able to place the structure again if you redeed it.
