"So, Mike, what''s your status?" said _____ [Status? Whats a status?] I very understandably asked. "Oh yeah, you''re new, just think open status and it will show up." [Open status?]

[Are my stats good?] I asked, hoping I didn''tdo anything wrong. "You have a pretty ordinary status page," said my unhelpful dungeon fairy. [What does everything mean? Rank? Level? Mana? Stats? Skills? Health?] I asked.
"Ranks and levels determine how good you are at something, there are 10 levels in each Rank. Thereare 8 ranks, ordered from lowest to highest are; Ultra-noob, Noob, Beginner, Adept, Master, Grandmaster, God, and Ultra-god." "Mana is the thing that makes you full and lets you summon monsters, traps, loot, and shape the world aroundyou." "Health is how much damage you can take before you die."Intelligence determineshow much mana you can hold, and can be improved by becoming smarter." "Wisdom determines how complicatedof things can be absorbed or summoned, and can be improved by learning new things." "Vitalitydetermines how much health you have, and can only be improved through adding stat points to it, at least for you" "Dexteritydetermineshow detailed you can influence things around you without influencing the individualparticles, and can be improved with practice." "Skills are abilitiesyou have, and can be improved through practice." she/he took a big breath
[Is that all?] I jokingly asked her. "No, your weak, time to summon your first monster" [...],seriously I didn''tknow whetherto be excited about the summoning or to be angry she/he called me weak.[How?] "Think Summons list" [Summons list!]
