ITEM icon (looks like a potion)----+--> USE (looks like a potion)
                                   |    Uses an item from that person's
                                   |    inventory.
                                   |
                                   +--> EQUIP (looks like an arm wearing armor)
                                   |    Equips that person with armor, weapon,
                                   |    etc. from their inventory.*
                                   |
                                   +--> GIVE (looks like a hand)
                                   |    Gives an item from that person's
                                   |    inventory to another party member.
                                   |
                                   +--> DROP (looks like a sword)
                                        Gets rid of an item permanently.

MAGIC (looks like a staff)-------> Uses a magic spell that that person has
                                   learned.

STATS (looks like a crystal ball)----> Shows a screen with all that character's
                                       statistics and attributes. See the next
                                       section for an explanation of stats.

TALK (looks like a question mark)-------> When this is chosen, the characters
                                          in your party will talk about the
                                          situation at hand. This may help you
                                          if you're stuck and don't know what
                                          to do next.

• Unlike most RPGs, which have an option to take off a weapon or piece of armor, Traysia has no Unequip command. To unequip something, have a character "give" it to himself or herself.
