You bear right to go to Skully Rumbugger's and acquire some weaponry fit for such an awesome Space Fish. It rests ahead of you, slowly rotating, like some kind of double-ended nuclear explosion.

wooshes in from behind you, chasing a school of space dolphins to sell as tuna.
You do your best to speed away from the net...

Success!No matter! This net's only made of plastic, and you're Space Fish!
You jet out through the charred dolphin remains and molten net, no worse for the wear. Shaking some embers off your scales, you zip to the emporium and enter.
You're greeted by a costumed likeness of Skully Rumbugger himself, who dances about you and drinks from his flagon until you're somewhat annoyed and move away.
The emporium is more like a mall than a store, and is a very busy place, filled with all manner of creatures buying, selling, fighting, eating, dancing, etc, etc. You head towards the weaponry department.

Pretty Good!-1d10 to future haggle checks: 10
Without making any mention of the space krill you've still got, you manage to get the trader to agree to not only sell you a weapon, but to fit it to your head, too, all in exchange for Pumpkin's corpse. Unfortunately, after seeing their stock, you feel that a chainsaw would be unwieldy and not very suited to your needs. A shop assistant digs out an old war drill (a common weapon used against the Rockmen of Asteron in the Leberplank war of the last century), and the technician gets to work fitting it.
You look and feel fantastic with your new drill, and you feel more qualified to hang out with starwhals than ever! The thought occurs to you to rob the place, even though there are lots of workers here who have lasers. You're tempted just to see if the rumours are true about how mighty Rumbugger's workforce really is.
Will Space Fish (foolishly) assault the shopping stronghold?StatsYou're a fish. I haven't decided a stat system yet.
