Sounds good but aren't we out of ground pixie? The knight snorted our whole stash I think.

I may be a bit late on this, but shouldn't we Skin the demonic scrotum and turn it into a comfy leather armor set for our elf? The toughness of the hide and the lightness of the weight is perfect for our scrawny body.

Walk up and greet them. You remember a little Humanese from Mom's old phrasebook. Approach the eldest matriarch and say "Hey, baby nice tits." This apparently translates to "greetings, elder superior. I have peaceful intent."

The toughness of the hide and the lightness of the weight is perfect for our scrawny body. That thing is rotting several hours behind us, and the Elf knows as much about making leather armour as he does about anything else. WIll check back in a couple hours then scan the pages in. I don't want to scan more than I have to because it damages the book and because the book somehow rips me to pieces every time I touch it.

Update We're a little over half way through this playthrough, I think! Naturally we're going to poison them (221): Since we're walking right up to these guys and saying "hello" the book is checking on how horrible we look. We scored 15/10 by my count, which is unbearably horrible. We use our Cockeye and Pixie Bits as per the thread's instructions. This will be important later on. And we get into a fight with a sort of tough opponent. So a three-part question here: 1.Do we fight the guard? If so, how much effort should we sink into it? If we lose we'll wind up in the Bilgeton dungeon probably with all of our loot gone. 2. What two items are we stealing from the tent? The loot cards associated with this room are things you'd find in a noble's tent, crap like musical instruments, weapons, fancy clothes, money, etc. 3. If we aren't getting nabbed by the guards, how do we escape? As usual, the adventure sheet: Saint Isaias Boner fucked around with this message at 00:56 on Jul 8, 2015 |

Take the nobles codpiece. It will likely be lavishly adorned and command respect from others.

Nobility like to travel with a holy relic or two. See if there are any clumps of a saint's hair tied with a ribbon made of gold, a shriveled hand holding a rosary which is said to grant wishes, or vials of blood with holy symbols on the stopper that could save someone from death, maybe even diamond amulets said to be so good and holy they can order around the forces of evil.

Oh my god, best update yet. Someone please avatarize our noble hero in the PhalloHelm. Forgot about that one, the artist must have had so much fun drawing that with all the little details to wrap up in a bow how goddamned insane our first day from home was. And the ants! I knew I remembered right As for the adventure, I vote we book it, choosing not to fight the guard because best case scenario is we're gonna get jumped by his buddies before we can loot anything and he probably won't give chase too far. As for loot, we need something to go with our Sweet Belt and incredible PhalloHelm so I vote we snag a Fancy Doublet and Bejeweled Codpiece to complete our ensemble. As our goal was to poison them and steal all their stuff, and we are now stealing their stuff, I vote we save our potent hallucinogens for a later date and instead steal some of their grub on the way out, if it is already in a bowl or something we can steal on the run We should definitely steal a horse, but as we are heading to the city where the noble lives we should take care to ditch it a mile or two before the city is visible so as not to draw attention edit - RandomPauI posted:Nobility like to travel with a holy relic or two.

Yeah I'm pretty sure he was originally meant to be a companion when the whole thing was written, but the publishers thought the pun was too high brow and would confuse people and that nobody wanted to worry about another character in addition to their own, so poor Karol got relegated to an optional helper role It's no coincidence that if you chase off Karol (tough to do, considering the wombat thing only disgusts him) pretty much all of your stories end with you falling into a pit and being skewered on spikes or breaking a leg and crying for days until you die. It's also why, unlike almost every other companion in every other RPG ever, you can't just give him a sword and shield and tell him to do your fighting for you. It's never explicitly stated but I'm PRETTY sure he thinks you're an idiot and it's his job to keep you from getting killed.

Main quest update Skipping ahead to 68 we get: So no more Karol (for a while at least). In return we get a much easier fight, a "potion" (really a food ration), 200 gold pieces and an extra item from the tent. Here's the Marching Potion: Main quest decisions: 1. Do we still want to contaminate the camp with mixed pixie bits and the cockeye? 2. Fight the guard or get captured? (not fighting the guard is the same as losing as far as the book is concerned, we will be captured) 3. Assuming we are not captured, what 3 items do we take before making a break for it? And by what means should we escape? Adventure sheet : ----------------------------------------------------- Alternate timeline update Options are to carry on or go back, as usual. Not much of a maze really.

Save the hallucinogenic pixie parts for another day, and shove any religious relics, cod pieces, and musical instruments into our bag. Carve "Jeff was here poo poo-birds!" Onto something valuable if there's time (never hurts to cause some problems for Jeff) and if not, hop on a horse and let's get the hell out of here!

With our luck, Jeff will be hailed as a hero or something. I also think we should carve his name somewhere.
