What it does

Syntax: cast 'Identify' <target>

Reports everything worth knowing about one item or one creature,
looking first through your inventory and worn gear, then the ground,
and finally at a creature in the room. On an item it names the type,
where it can be worn, its flags and any race or class restriction, its
weight and worth, its level restriction, its condition and whatever
applies it carries, along with the numbers particular to its kind:
weapon dice, armour class, wand charges, container capacity, or the
spells stored in a scroll or potion. On a creature it gives the name,
age, height and weight, level, hit points and mana, armour class,
hitroll and damroll, and a reading of every attribute.

Exact costs, durations and chances are deliberately left to the game.
