Interactive Story supports multiple inventories.  This mechanism allows for multiple characters or disparate scenes in a narrative.  Each inventory is given a unique name. Each scene can be associated with an inventory name. The default inventory name is 'main'.  By default items will be placed into or removed from the inventory associated with the current scene.

To create a new inventory or to associate an inventory with a scene, click on the scene title in the story editor.

You can place or remove an item from a particular inventory by preceding the item name with a full colon and the inventory name.

For example, to place the item 'apple' into the 'snowwhite' inventory you would add the item name as follows:

:snowwhite apple
