7216: Level ranks
Maroc's rank near the start of the game
Maroc's gains 'points' towards his rank by:
  • destroying creatures and warlocks
  • collecting spells (though these points are ignored - see Trivia: Maroc's rank)
  • reaching deeper dungeon levels
His RANK is made up of two parts - a descriptor e.g. LESSER, and a title, e.g. MAGICIAN.
  • Maroc starts the game as an APPRENTICE LORE SEEKER
  • The highest rank attainable is SUPREME LORE LORD
  • Maroc loses a small number of points (and rank) for repeatedly running out of energy
DESCRIPTORS advance through from APPRENTICE to SUPREME. Then the TITLE advances to the next one, and the descriptor is reset. So for example the next rank up from SUPREME LORE SEEKER is APPRENTICE WISE ONE.
The calculation and display of Maroc's rank occurs (E4E7) when he runs out of energy, and at the (successful) end of the game.
See the table of character byte values for a translation of letters-to-numbers.
