Problem for a newbie

[Marc]

I'm a real newbie to NewAngband and i have a few questions.

I found some crystals of fire. What can i do with them and how are they ussed?

I'm playing a monster character which has Spell points
but when pressing the m button i get no Spell window.
How do i create spells then without a window?

Thanks for some answers

Just after you start a game hit '?' then '1' and read the newbie guide, it should explain almost everything (especially new keys not found in other variants).

In your case:
You can 'w'ear crystals and 'z'ap it while wielding an appropriate rod.
For spells, if you press 'm' there should be a three choice menu: 'c'ast a spell, 'm'ake a spell and 'd'elete a spell.
Read appropriate section in the help (5)

Monster characters do not use spells like regular characters. The 'm' command will only allow you to use the monster's special attacks, if any. If it doesn do anything, then the monster you chose has no special attacks.
