You know the shopkeeper wasn't exactly intimidated the first time. He was kind of just mocking us with the 1% off.

Those eyebrows are just too much for us to handle. We need Groucho Glasses to combat that kind of sexy.

[ShadowStrike]

What if they're actually a passive, non-bound skill that we can steal? What if they're actually an item, as in, fake eyebrows, and are equiped in the shopkeeper's inventory? We really need to know more about them to find out wether we have the chance of getting them somehow or not.

Also, is it possible to create skills with some kind of training...? Could we, at least, learn a new move compatible with the weapon we're using while training with said weapon?

For example: Character practices with a sword. Is he able to practice with it to earn a powerful slashing move as skill?

I'm asking this since, at the begin, Ciro discovered a Practical Fighter ability while fighting with a spider.

I think we got the semi-reaction because we did roll 21 before the -10.

I think it was more us realizing our Tier Zero Active ability.

Because we didn't learn from fighting, but because someone suggested that we attempt to learn an ability.

Edit: Actually on double check the person simply suggested we use the ability and we got it.

Holy crap, dude! All of the bloody possibilities! Nice find

The shopkeeper probably has that as his Tier (X) passive.

Did we use the polar eye on any of the shopkeepers we found yet? If not, we could do it now.

+1, if we can do it discreetly.

I cannot figure out how to respond to this.

Oric is probably going to get points in Cheating now.

Q: What does 'Oric' mean?
There was a lot of speculation in the press when the Oric came out about this. Some thought it was named after the plastic-box-with-lights in called Orac from the BBC TV series 'Blakes 7'. The truth (according to Paul Kaufman, who worked for Tangerine, Oric and Tansoft in the early years) was that the company tried to come up with a name by juggling the letters of the word 'micro'. The best they could do was 'oric' (must have lost the 'm' under the table somewhere) and the name stuck.

From Steve Marshall comes the following: "I have a theory about the red 'tick' on the Atmos. I reckon it was put there for when people ask where the 'M' is (see the story above about the missing M). Stick a mirror on the top of the Oric logo and the 'M' is revealed !" You need to get out more Steve!

Q: How Many Orics Were Made?
Quite a few. I have no idea of the exact number.

Q: Where can I get my Oric fixed?
Steve Marshall has some spares, including power supplies.

Also this line is golden:

That is advice for a much less awesome Oric.
