 *In most casual contexts, and in some areas of the game, one 'turn' is equal to one [[decaAut]] (10 [[aut]], or arbitrary units of time). This is a relative measure of time: slow actions may take 1.5 'turn' and give you 1.5 'turns' of regeneration, but only count towards 1 turn of the turn counter. Most actions, such as moving or waiting, take 1 decaAut. See the [[decaAut]] page for more details.
-Character and monster behavior can't be fully explained with the raw turn counter (the first definition). For example: a skilled [[quick blade]] lets you attack at 0.5 decaAut, swinging twice per turn. Swinging four times would be two game-turns, but only 1.0 decaAut. An average speed monster would only act once in that time, but you still swung 4 times total.
