+# Mob Editing (MEDIT)
+
+The MEDIT command is used to create and edit NPCs within the game world. Like the other OLC commands, you can use "MEDIT #" to edit a specific NPC; if no NPC exists at that vnum, you will have the option of creating one there.
+
+## The Main MEDIT Menu
+
+1) **Keywords**  
+These are the aliases / keywords that the NPC can be targeted with.
+
+2) **Name**  
+This is the name of the NPC, used when they speak and when looking at them. Unless it is a proper name (e.g. "Alice" "Claire"), this should always start with a lower-case letter. This should never end in punctuation.
+
+3) **Room Description**
+This is the line that's printed to the room when you LOOK. This should always start with a capital letter and end with punctuation.
+
+4) **Look Description**  
+This is the text that's printed when you LOOK at the NPC.
+
+5) **Mob Flags**  
+Accessing this menu allows you to modify the behavioral flags that the NPC has set.  More on these flags can be found here (this window) or here (new window).
+
+6) **Affected Flags**  
+ Affected Flags are used to add extra abilities or change the state of the NPC. They are detailed HERE.
+
+7) **Nothing**  
+For reasons unknown, there is no option listed at 7.
+
+8) **Average Nuyen / Credstick Value**
+This allows you to set the average nuyen value of loose-cash and nuyen contents of the credstick that spawn on the NPC when it is killed. Set to 0 to have nothing of the type appear.
+
+9) **Bonus Karma Points**  
+ Karma Points are set based on the attributes, skills, etc of the NPC.  Bonus Karma Points add to this pre-determined total; karma points are awarded on killing.
+
+a) **Attributes**  
+Select this to enter a menu where you can set up the NPC's various attributes.
+
+b) **Level**  
+This is roughly equivalent to Immortal level- if you have an NPC that you don't want low-level Immortals forcing or setting, set the NPC's level higher than theirs to make it immune to their tampering.
+
+c-d) **Ballistic / Impact**  
+This allows you to set the NPC's inherent (naked) armor.
+
+e-f) **Max Physical Points / Max Mental Points**
+This allows you to set the maximums for the NPC's health and mental status. Unless you have a good reason to change it, this should be left at 10/10.
+
+g-h) **Position / Default Position**  
+The Position field is the position that the NPC spawns in- it's not recommended to set this to Mortally Wounded, Stunned or Fighting.  The Default Position is the position in which the NPC will print its room desc to the room; if the NPC is not in the Default Position, a custom string will be printed instead (<name> is <sleeping/sitting/standing/whatever> here).
+
+i-k) **Gender / Weight / Height**  
+These fields allow you to set the vital statistics of the NPC.
+
+l) **Race**  
+This field allows you to set the race of the NPC.  Obviously, races such as 'Dryad' and 'Dragon' should only be selected if you have a good reason to do so.
+
+m) **Attack Type**  
+This field allows you to set the unarmed attack type of the NPC.  Explosive effects such as 'rocket' and 'grenade' may or may not have splash damage, depending on your MUD's build.  If they do, it is extremely advisable to NOT set explosive attack types.
+
+n) **Skill Menu**  
+Here you can give the NPC up to six skills that it will use when relevant. These skills are usually used to make the NPC better at combat or magic.
+
+o-p) **Arrive Text / Leave Text**  
+This allows you to set the movement text of the NPC. This functions much like player-movement text.
+
+r) **Faction Information**  
+This field allows you to set the allegiance of the NPC. Characters who help or harm this NPC will have their reputation within the faction network modified accordingly.
