BTW, this is a reference to a 90s internet celebrity named Elf Sternberg who… wrote a lot of furry erotica on Usenet, I think.

Must've been easier to be a celebrity those days.

When I played this as a tiny child, I think I tried to put one of each D&D class in the party, but now I can't remember if Rogue is useful in this game at all. Anyway, this feels a little balanced.

Appropriate for an RPG plot to be the Sephirot.

So the evidence points to a mage with an ego.

That rules out almost no mages...

It could also mean the perpetrator can forge a mage's signature.

“This looks well read. Though I suppose it's because the people here were reading it while laughing, and not taking notes.”

I think this one's a reference to a 1996 game called Bad Mojo, where you were turned into a cockroach.

I thought I'd played this game pretty well as a kid, but honestly I had no idea this quest line existed. Huh.

And then Avernum 3's graphics were never really my thing, so hopefully the second remake is good and not too many more hours long.

I think the librarian is meant to be an albino rather than just a pale Exile.

The names in this province are interesting, though. There's some Japanese words vaguely thrown in (Yukiko and Midori) and programming jokes (Malloc and Calloc), then some real Seattle suburbs (Poulsbo and Bremerton). But what's going on with "Moon" and "Wainscotting"?

“Worst. Cult. Ever.”

Please tell me I'm not the only one who reads “DILUTE! DILUTE!” in Dalek?

I… guess this is a joke about the weird religious labels on Dr. Bronner's soap bottles.

Glad we're reaching the part of the game that was too hard for me to beat at 10. So I just downloaded a save off AOL that was right before the last move to win the game - good enough for me.

(Btw, showed the thread to Nakar but it seems his muse isn't around at the moment.)

Thanks for finishing the game I never had the attention span to do! Let's see how Avernum III x2 comes out.

Just one thing here - you called Rentar-Ihrno "he".
