Ravenmud DB
 
Keep in mind, I am a -total- newb when it comes to ZMUD... However, I'm looking to create a back end DB. I really don't know the capabilities of this, I'd like something where I'd be able to type #showDB (EQ NAME) without the parenthesis and it'd show the EQ stats in line. I also would like capture triggers so that as I go along stating equipment, it automatically adds it self to the DB. The ability to go back through the DB later on and fill in the mob name, the zone it's from, and where worn would be great too... Possibly add in a field for the DICE AVG of weapons and maybe the float point too? Here are some examples of what equipment looks like on my MUD. !XXX such as !NECRO is a RESTRICTION from that class, meaning that Necromancers can't use it.

Take a look at the guide at How to Create an Item Database. It should help you setup the basic triggers needed.

Basically what you need to do is:
1. Identify what fields you need in the database, and add them.
2. Write capture triggers to help put the data into the database.
