Interesting...
If this adventurer dies, may I suggest a barbarian or monk. Always a fun time with those classes.

[Humaan]

So, now, the adventure begins!

Spoiler: Beginning... (click to show/hide)

So, our quest as Volatar the neutral human archeologist begins...



... as a general key, that thing right next to us is our cat, there is gold, and that wierd looking brown thing is a statue. Upon further examination, it is of a jackel. Speaking of jackels...



... there are some. If you look in the top left corner, I already killed two, and there is one last one. It took all but 5 of our health. After that, Volatar explored the top-right corridor.



Which then I remembered to show you guys our inventory. Yes, I could have used the pick-axe to destroy the boulder, but I forgot, okay? And for those who wonder what the tinning kit does...



Yum.... jackel meat...



Woot, new room! Oh, and armor! Specifically, banded armor. Volator ignores it though, after all, he is a archeologist.



He is more worried about traps, such as this dart trap. Luckily, the dart wasn't poisoned.



Oh, a mace.

So, now what shall he do?

[Volatar]

Start searching for hidden doors like a true archeologist.

Heh heh. We should totally make you play with conditions. Like, your archaeologist can only ever wield his starting whip (or a plastic tube, if one becomes availible) as a weapon. He may continue throwing daggers, and he may enchant the whip/tube.

Also, lawful female dwarven valk for the next one, with the condition that she must drop her other weapons in favor of a pick (or dwarven mattock) as soon as one becomes availible.

Picks actually make good weapons in Nethack, incidentally. I watched one guy nearly ascend using nothing but a +7 Mattock once.

[JoshuaFH]

A plastic tube?

[rickvoid]

Rubber hose. Sorry, forgot that was what it was called.

[Volatar]

Haha, that sounds fun 

[Mr.Person]

Mine out the statues. Large statues sometimes have spellbooks in them. Even if they're small, I think it exercises strength.

Also, only tin corpses if you're satiated or the corpse is poisonous or acidic or something. 94 charges is a lot, but you'll be kicking yourself when you kill dragons or giants and have no charges left on the thing because you just HAD to tin those jackals.

[Humaan]

New Poll!

Hey, I DO have a thing againest jackels...
If only I could get the platinum charge card (literal charge card)

Yeah, you can set conditions. If you want, you can make my conditions under any possible thing (warning: don't make me unable to eat AND unable to prey. I guareentee you I will lose.)

This is for your amusement only, so knock yourself out.


I will guareentee a update by Monday or on Monday.

[Synzig]

+1 for using only the starting whip.

[Virroken]

+2 for the whip. Also, wear a nifty hat.

[Mr.Person]

If you find an early wand of wishing, you could wish for the Platinum Yendorian Express Card. Of course, you'de be better off wishing for the Eye of ... whatever the fuck..., the Orb of Fate, 2 scrolls of charging (or 2 magic markers if you've already ID'd charging), a +3 gray dragon scale mail (or silver dragon scale mail), and if you still have charges, +3 speed boots, a +3 helm of brilliance, and a bag of holding. All of those are blessed, fixed, and greased.

[JoshuaFH]

The eye of whatever the fuck is a most prized artifact indeed.

[rickvoid]

Someone should do a Nethack Let's Play with MSPaint Adventures style artwork.

The more I think about it, the more awesome it becomes.

Volatar begins his quest while the cat acts catlike.
