Ditch the six fingered hand, but seduce the witch. Now that we're not decrepit we should do alright.

we're on a pretty good setup for this route, we can also use the monkey hand for the 2 pink 1 stink combo, hermans pretty hosed up/real cool.

i think it can be attributed to the fact he blew the insurance money on drugs and orgies, i cant remember whether it was his house he burnt down or the print shop he owned or it was like a home print studio, i just remember reading an interview that was on some fan site that went down in 2001

I vote this, though we're moving to just creepy instead of creepily pleasant.

Also how much of the game is actually the author trying to predict and manipulate goon responses?

yeah the goal of the author of these gamebooks was to predict the emergence of a niche internet forum twenty years into the future, and pander to it

In meteorology, vorticity often refers to a measurement of the spin of horizontally flowing air about a vertical axis.

The man is a heartless monster. I remember the scenario in The Bastard Elf where the 10 Foot Dungeoneering Pole falls into the well and drowns when you choose the option to throw a coin in to make a wish. Dude just loves making small seemingly pointless choices into monstrous abominations of misfortune.

Last para complete:



On to 352:



Luckily I remembered we were wearing armour this time and rolled a 6 on the armour saving throw from the tabard so this broom to the balls doesn't do us in.

We're still not winning at the game of love but at least we're not dead. Well, we are, but at least we can still shamble around.

Anyway, the world is our oyster. Where to?

That's one of the funniest bits in the whole book. Totally worth the risk of death.

If someone wants us to do something like "go to the tower'", then they better pay us something because we don't work for free. It's against our intrinsic sense and it is against the law. :colbert:

Monteton was North at the start!

:ok: update time. We continue to Bilgeton, ignoring the witch.

Here's the latest past, now complete:



Turning to 312:



Here's our current adventure scroll:



Now one thing about this that might not be obvious unless you've paid too much attention to this book and Sword of the Bastard Elf - this is a squalid little medieval world that teeters on the edge of starvation most of the time and soldiers are expensive. Bilgeton is the region's biggest metropolis with a population of no more than 2,500 and it pretty much supports a couple of dozen soldiers, a few knights and a couple of petty nobles. A guy wandering around with fourteen dudes, especially dudes ready to fight, is a force to be reckoned with.

Anyway, now you know that what do we do here?
(bear in mind our next choice will bring us to, or very close to The End We Deserve)

Waltz up to the tent, introduce ourselves to the SKU leadership and underhandedly debone them once we put our arms around them in a comradely embrace.

Renegotiate terms with the humans for better conditions for the working skeleton. Then as we have an overwhelming numerical advantage free the rest of the skeletons from their meaty prisons.
