2.16 The consider command

Can you fight a mobile (npc) and survive? Use the CONSIDER command to help you
make an educated guess!

CONSIDER <player> will compare your might, which is a rough comparison of how
many lessons you have spent in learning skills.

CONSIDER <mobile> gives a general idea of the power of the mobile. For example,
CONSIDER rat might say "A rat is quite powerful."

NOTE: this is not how powerful the mobile is relative to you. This is on an
absolute scale.  

The messages you may see when you type the consider command for a mobile, in
order from strongest to weakest, are:

  almost glows with nearly god-like power
  does not even register your presence as a threat
  exudes an aura of overwhelming power
  has an air of extreme strength
  looks to be crushingly strong
  appears to be extraordinarily strong
  is quite powerful
  is not one to be trifled with
  seems strong and confident
  exudes a quiet confidence
  seems to be unafraid
  appears to lack strength
  does not look particularly dangerous
  is a humble-looking creature
  looks relatively helpless
  looks weak and feeble
