==Description==
Alcoholic [[beverages]] such as [[wine]] and beer can cause the [[player]] to become intoxicated or addicted.

Intoxication and addiction have various bonuses and penalties, and some alcoholic beverages are stronger than others.

==Intoxication==

A player's intoxication is increased by drinking alcoholic beverages, and reduces gradually over time.

===Alcohol strength===

* Stronger forms of alcohol will contribute more to intoxication.
* [[Quality]] of the beverage has no effect on strength.
* When drinking any beverage, 0.20 liters are consumed at a time, about once per second.
**Each of these "sips" increases intoxication.
**The size of the "sip" has no effect on strength. For example, drinking a full [[reed pen]] is only 0.008 liters of beverage, but will increase intoxication just as much as a standard 0.20 liter drink.

===Levels and effects of intoxication===

Intoxication has numerous effects on the player and their actions, achieved at different levels of intoxication.

When drinking alcohol, a message is given indicating the player's current level of intoxication, from 0% to 100%.
* ''"You are tipsy."'': 10% – 20%
* ''"You are getting drunk."'': 20% – 30%
** Starting at this level, drinking alcohol also increases alcohol addiction.
* ''"You are drunk."'': 30% – 60%
** Starting at some point within this range, the player begins taking 50% reduced [[damage]] from attacks.
* ''"You are really really drunk."'': 60% – 90%
* ''"You can barely walk."'': 90% – 95%
** Starting at this level, the player's walking [[speed]] is drastically reduced.
** Starting at this level, the player also has a chance to spill food or beverages instead of consuming them. This will destroy the entire item, or spill the entire contents of the beverage container, even a stationary container such as a [[well]] or [[fountain]].
* ''"You are setting some kind of record."'': 95% – 100%
* ''"You made it to the top! You are perfectly drunk!"'': 100%
** At this level, the '''Drunkard''' [[title]] is achieved.

Some effects increase gradually with intoxication level:
* Increased item creation [[difficulty]].
* Increased [[cooking]] [[difficulty]].
* Increased [[Combat Rating]] bonus.
** After a certain threshold, this becomes an increasing Combat Rating ''penalty'' instead.

==Addiction==

A player's alcohol addiction level is increased by drinking alcoholic beverages when beyond the "tipsy" stage of intoxication.

Alcohol addiction level gradually decreases over time, but only when the player's intoxication level is 0%. In other words, the addiction level only goes down while the player is completely sober. This means the player may be susceptible to withdrawal.

* By reaching a high enough addiction level, the '''Alcoholic''' [[title]] is achieved.

===Withdrawal===

When completely sober (0% intoxication) and with a high addiction level, the player has a chance of randomly failing actions with the following message: ''"You tremble and shake from withdrawal."'' This has no effect on some actions, and can have severe consequences for others, depending on the action being performed.
* If this occurs when improving, extremely high amounts of damage may be done to the item being improved.

==Achievements==

Various [[Achievements]] can be gained by performing tasks related to alcohol:
* Commanding a boat while intoxicated.
* Commanding a cart while intoxicated.
