Lock Picking is a useful skill to have, for when you find random chests with treasures inside of them, or a locked door that blocks your path.
You will need a lockpick set in order to do these commands, which you can fabricate from your home plane.
The goal is to get each of the 5 tumblers to the *click* position. They will start in either *click*, *clunk*, or *clonk*.
You have 3 lock picks to use on a given target, with different techniques changing the positions slightly differently.

</font>Assuming you are holding your lock pick set in your left hand, and assisting with your right hand, the following combination of moves can help you open the lock. They are formatted as aliases to be used with the mud’s built-in alias system.
Warning: These moves will work in general, but certain internal combinations can cause these to fail (and some locks are trapped as well). Use caution with these, and try other moves if these are stuck.
c = chest
r = raise
l = lower
# = tumbler#
