gait -- how you walk into rooms

Default leave/arrive lines use walk: "walks east" / "walks in from the west". Pick another curated motion verb when you want a different tell.

How you play
  1. gait                 numbered menu (current pick marked in the title)
  2. gait 4               pick by menu number
  3. gait glide           pick by id
  4. gait clear           reset to walk (same as gait walk)
  5. walk east            watchers see "glides east" / "glides in from the west"

Options: walk, jog, run, stride, saunter, stroll, glide, skip, stalk, creep, limp, stumble, float, march, dash.

Note: jog / run as travel verbs (same destinations as walk, faster) force those leave/arrive tells for the trip only. Your curated gait returns when the journey ends. See help walk.

Custom lines (optional): entermsg and exitmsg replace the default gait arrive/leave text. Tokens: $n your presence name, $d direction, $o opposite direction. Max 120 characters; entermsg clear / exitmsg clear resets.

Alias: walkstyle. Freeform custom verbs are not available -- pick from the list. Special arrives (plane, ferry, clinic) keep their own prose.
