This page is about the nonsanc mechanics IRC bot (NSC).

"ID" in the following is a character or move ID. This is not the same as a name. An ID is 8 or fewer characters. Usually it is derived from the name of the thing. If the name of the thing is one word, the ID is the first 8 characters. There are more rules for making IDs for other situations, but you can just get them from the bot itself.

You can private message the bot with the command, in which case it will post the results in #prpg, or you can go to the channel #nsc-bot and type commands there; in that case the bot will respond in the same channel without cluttering the main channel.
