"Do you mean something specific? Or would anything do? Is there something you also want returned? Or..."
Kara thought back to the statue of Polyantha.
She might want to erase the evidence of her past. Would that count as blasphemy? Does it even care about what the church thinks is blasphemy or is it talking about a blasphemy in its own belief system?
"Or is there something you want to see destroyed?"

Ask. If she doesn't share more, then make myself scarce and try to figure out what she means. Maybe borrow Adam's holy book and go through it to find some blasphemy I could give her.

Spoiler: "Kara" the Corven (click to show/hide)

Name: "Kara" is what most humans call her, though the closest pronunciation would be  Kr'ra-Kax
Race: Corven (advantage for climb, disadvantage for falls)
Appearance: She is a crow-like Corven with matte-black feathers. A bit short. Constantly moves her head around, examining her surroundings. Moves her tail up and down whenever she's excited.
Age: Adult, but just barely
Goal: Wants to find artifacts and experiences that she can use to make an (under)world-famous museum. Wants to prove herself to her mother and piss off her brother with her success (both financially and socially).

Status
Sacrificed left arm to reverse time (eaten by giant Shluck-like thing). Bandaged and given spider venom for the pain.

In the eternal words of the uncreative forumite: Try Again.  A good knee smashing is the ultimate goal, but Nyw will accept just knocking the man unconscious, too.  _{^{The knee breaking comes after, regardless.}}

Nyw will just let the addicts run off with the money.  The plan was to spend it on them anyway, though Nyw would've just bought them a bunch of food and other simple stuff, rather than letting them run off with it to spend on drugs.  Ah well, their loss.  If Johnny boy is captured, haul him back to the police.

You head to the local messaging office and get them to send off an official message to Leon, along with a duplicate of the credentials you were given.  They tell you it may be a bit before an answer returns.

Very well. Will you inform me of when the answer arrives, or should I ask from time to time?

Next, consider what sort of gear that combat divers (Church-affiliated or otherwise) use. I'm guessing they will usually try to just stay hidden and provide support, right? Do they have any gear that facilitates that?

Also buy a black flame, 3x silent night. Oh, and can one wear a rubber suit in conjunction with a soldier chestplate? 

Spoiler: Adam Blavatsky Darvaza (click to show/hide)

Name: Adam Blavatsky Darvaza
Description: A young man of slightly pale complexion and eternal 9 o’clock shadow, he was raised in a small village. While the village priest and passing mystics droned with endless sermons of the Church and their teachings, what had always captivated young Adam’s attention more were the stories of his Granny.
Old stories of the world as it once was, before people were forced to flee to the caves and crannies of this damp hell. Of warm days where pleasant green plants tickled your feet as you walked through them and a cool breeze blew through your hair. Where food was plentiful, nature was benign and endless vistas reached as far as they eye could see.
Adam was nominally a card-carrying member of the church, though he mostly did it for the connections and perks that brought. They were powerful and had ancient lore, all things he would need to fulfill his true heart’s desire: to return to the surface, vanquish the madness that tainted their homeland and reconquer paradise.
After his encounter with a Word of God, the edges of his vision are flickering with black flame and his skin is extremely pale with what appear to be black veins instead of the normal blue ones. It also forced him to reevaluate his views on the cthonic church and god.
Goal: Plunge the secrets of the depths below to find an answer to the horrors above.

Nyw proceeds to use his hooked cleaver to break the man's kneecap. And by break I of course mean split. And by split I mean he cut his damn leg off at the knee.  The loanshark would probably complain about this if he hadn't been smashed in the head by a shovel a half a second later, cracking his skull and knocking him out.  He is now bleeding profusely, probably badly concussed and maybe slipping into a coma.

They'll bring it to the warehouse, so as long as you're there I'll let you know, otherwise someone else might get it.

Depends on the specialty of the diver. There are offensive divers who wade into open combat, though they usually make preparations before hand by enchanting weapons and items and use them up over time, occasionally casting to deal with problems. There are likewise supportive or defensive divers and the like. What you want will depend on the role you intend to take.

Done. As per layered armor...I think we have a rule against it? Hmm. I can't find anything specific in the rules...I'll say that in THIS case, because the rubber suit is insulation not protect, I'll accept it. I just don't want people stacking armor too much.

You drink a full glass of rotgut and the world immediately starts to look like you smeared it in Vaseline and spun around a dozen times.  You stagger over to the table of a quite agreeable looking Moleman and slur something about exploring your tunnels. Luckily the mole seems more confused than anything.

"Cutting off his leg may have been a little excessive. Anyway I didn't get a chance until now to thank you for saving most of the books, I'm confident that the knowledged contained within them will be of great use to us when we get around translating them, and if not we can always sell them to the Church for a nice profit."

Alex glances at the unconscious and profusely bleeding gangster.

"Was there are any specific reason why you picked a fight with this gangster? The available bounties are all rather meagre, with the highest paying one only paying 150 fathoms, which really isn't worth the effort of catching them."

((Cleaver?  Nyw's been fighting unarmed, he doesn't really need a weapon to fight normals...))

Nyw sighs as he looks down at the bleeding gangster.  "Severing the limb was not my intention, but... erh.  I heard your footsteps coming closer, and misinterpreted them as a sign of an additional aggressor, perhaps a bodyguard, and I decided nonlethal combat was no longer a safe option."  he shakes his head.  "Hopefully my mistake will not result in this poor fool's death.  Do you have medical experience?  Despite what you have heard, this man's life is supposedly worth a thousand fathoms, but neither my proportions nor my experiences leave me suitable for repairing injuries."

Ask Alex to heal John, then after he has a minute to work, pick the gangster up and rush him... either to the police, or the nearest hospital/clinic/witch doctor/church/place of healing, whichever Nyw thinks he can get to faster.

"There's no time to waste then. I'll try to stem the bleeding, you pick him up as soon as I'm done."

Tear some cloth from the unconscious gangster's clothes and use that to bandage his wounds. Grab the severed leg and follow Nyw once I'm done.

As per layered armor...I think we have a rule against it? Hmm. I can't find anything specific in the rules...I'll say that in THIS case, because the rubber suit is insulation not protect, I'll accept it. I just don't want people stacking armor too much.

Ok, then I'll buy a rubber suit. Do let me know should you change your mind.

Depends on the specialty of the diver. There are offensive divers who wade into open combat, though they usually make preparations before hand by enchanting weapons and items and use them up over time, occasionally casting to deal with problems. There are likewise supportive or defensive divers and the like. What you want will depend on the role you intend to take.

Could you tell me about something about the type of stuff an offensive diver would use? Any sort of commonly used enchantments/items, or is every diver unique with what they use?

Finally, could you please give me the price for the following items:
- a standard bore cannon
- mechanism to retract said cannon and have the armor plating slide over it (to protect and hide the weapon)
- swivel mount of sorts for said cannon so that it has some degrees of freedom in aiming
- autoloader
- cost to hook up the cannon to the bore's brain so it can fire the cannon on targets we designate

- standard solid ammo
- armor piercing shells
- high-explosive fragmentation shells

Spoiler: Adam Blavatsky Darvaza (click to show/hide)

Name: Adam Blavatsky Darvaza
Description: A young man of slightly pale complexion and eternal 9 o’clock shadow, he was raised in a small village. While the village priest and passing mystics droned with endless sermons of the Church and their teachings, what had always captivated young Adam’s attention more were the stories of his Granny.
Old stories of the world as it once was, before people were forced to flee to the caves and crannies of this damp hell. Of warm days where pleasant green plants tickled your feet as you walked through them and a cool breeze blew through your hair. Where food was plentiful, nature was benign and endless vistas reached as far as they eye could see.
Adam was nominally a card-carrying member of the church, though he mostly did it for the connections and perks that brought. They were powerful and had ancient lore, all things he would need to fulfill his true heart’s desire: to return to the surface, vanquish the madness that tainted their homeland and reconquer paradise.
After his encounter with a Word of God, the edges of his vision are flickering with black flame and his skin is extremely pale with what appear to be black veins instead of the normal blue ones. It also forced him to reevaluate his views on the cthonic church and god.
Goal: Plunge the secrets of the depths below to find an answer to the horrors above.
