"My, that felt odd. Good, though. Very good."

Xan moves the arm about, getting used to having one again. He then goes and leans over the side to yell out to the alligator.

"My thanks! Now then, what would you want in exchange for that hat you mentioned?"

Haul more merchandise down. Another armor set, four spears, a bow and a heap of arrows. Conduct the hat request and a voice device request. Trade for map of the place beyond the storm clouds.
Attempt to sell the talking rock. The loud pirate-y one.


- Now look, we got even more of this stuff up there, that should be our trade for the smaller stuff, like boose, hat, arm, bullets and maps. Now say, would you, by chance, be interested in buying a living rock? It talks and rolls around by itself and such.

To Alligator Santa:

"We have some weapons and armor, like the stuff John showed you. I might be willing to part with this rifle as well. Now, can I see the goods?"

((Try to ask Piecewise for specific items out of quantum space of Redneck Santa's inventory. Go wild, he might just have it. We fucked up with inventory check on Warbeast once, eliminating source of unquantized goodness, don't make the same mistake.
If you're unsure, just ask him to show something interesting and/or valuable he has.

This advice is strictly suggestive. Just saying, you know.))

GRUMBLE GRUMBLE I WOULD LIKE TO INQUIRE ABOUT BUYING SOMETHING THAT WOULD ALLOW ME TO SPEAK
"I got something that would work. Talking skull. Comes from a hell where the ground is covered in talking skulls that do nothing but recite the final words of those killed via violence. When you take them out of that hell, however, they just say what the nearest person is thinking. Used for lie detectors and that sort of thing elsewhere."

"My, that felt odd. Good, though. Very good."

Xan moves the arm about, getting used to having one again. He then goes and leans over the side to yell out to the alligator.

"My thanks! Now then, what would you want in exchange for that hat you mentioned?"

"Got a pair of boots?"

"I'll give you the skull and the hat for...a helmet, a spear, the map for a chest plate. As per your rocky friend there, what do you want for him?"

Experience boredom. Fly down to Redneck Alligator Santa.

"Say, my anthropomorphic friend, do you have any good books on sorcery?"
"Hmm. Well, I got a few books. Old stuff, dunno the authenticity. Lots of would-be sorcerers out there you know. I have one on blood ritutals and one on..." he digs through his stuff for a moment before pulling out a leather bound book. He squints at the cover for a few seconds before speaking.  "Mass suggestion, Thought-forms, populace embued preternatural capacities and the self feeding god cycle. Rolls off the tongue, eh?"

Xan begins to respond to the alligator's question on boots when he hears this and his eyes practically pop out of his head.

"Never mind the hat. Well not never mind I still want it but what would you desire in exchange for the book on mass suggestion. I want that book very badly all of a sudden."

Skull, hat, map - prices are good, deal is sealed. Our rocky friend for the magic books.

((I'm going to wiki all the bought stuff and dispense it to respective owners (when applicable) on the page, pinky promise, just not right now.))

"Smart bird. I no longer wish you dead because of this."

What is this strange emotion called forgiveness?

The phrase below is spoken at HurrDurr (Egan) when convenient IC-wise, while someone else is addressing Alligator Santa, presumably:

 - Now listen friend. We're getting you a speech device. However, I trust it that Rocky's situation, him being sold off to the first stranger we come across, that is, will plant the following suggestion in your... head... brain... you: do not abuse your voice. Speak up when you have something serious to say about current situation, ask questions if you need to. Just do not fuck around.

Alright, some questions about talkskull.

Does it project all the thoughts of the person, or just what they want to say? Is it possible to control what it says to some degree, or will it just continually blabber all your thoughts?

Does it have a male or female voice? Does it depend on the user?

Any preference for text color/accent for the skull's voice or should I choose?

Can the skull be worn as a hat.


@Comrade: RP before talkskull or after?

You should totally ask for Tarmac. Maybe it'll even work. He could have been reincarnated as Santa's bag.  :P
