Last time you tried, my wounds became worse. O_o

One could almost think you did so on purpose!

I am appauled that you'd even think such a thing! I merely just mislabeled my healing tincture with the flask of highly dangerous poison!

Out of curiosity, did that get you anything Bd? I've been tempted a few times, but chivalry and honor has prevented me from pulling the cork out.

Well, you can either chug it all down or drink half of it. Drinking half of it restores some HP and you can use it again, chugging it all down at once can either restore your health a lot or do something else. I usually just play it safe really.

Oh yeah I forgot there was a thread! So, my month absence probably put me way behind anyone, leaving my highest stats (shadow/dangerous) in the low 50s with items.

My nightmares are starting to get up there again, too, need to do something about that...

I would be willing to exchange wound healing for someone listening to my nightmares, I think.

(How much does the nightmare social action even heal compared to, say, a flask of Laudanum? Right now, to pay for a bottle costs 2 actions (at 50 pence a pop) about, plus one for drinking. Since the nightmares passes some on to the other person and takes up two actions, I'm not sure if its even worth it, to be honest!)

Getting healed by another person is a lot more efficient though, I think, right?

Bdthegag, I think he meant did the poisoining get you anything. Not what sounds like drinking healing stuff. As for that...
Also, I generally switch between chugging and taking the recommended amount of healing stuff, just because I've been working on putting up my reckless. ^_^

Dwarmin, you are currently beyond the reach of my healing, alas...

Ah, no the poison doesn't get you anything. It just makes their wounds rise up a lot, and generally fucks them over. Great to use as a prank, especially if their wounds are at 7.

Remind me never to let you heal me.

As another note, do the multi-plus items ever actually become useful? By which I mean are there challenges that eventually require more than one of a stat?

Well sometimes, you'll could be doing a shadowy challenge. But it gives you an option to use Persuasive as a side option. So you never know when having a bonus could help out.

But is there ever such a time where you can't just, ya'know, switch your equipment before tackling the situation?

Yeah, I suppose it really isn't that useful then.

Also, would anyone be interested for some roleplay based on this game? It was pretty fun when we did it back in Improbable Island, and I just fucking love this games setting.

I know, it just sucks that there's no real public space to communicate or even a way to privately communicate. I've been jonesing for some RP here so bad. Were you there when I offered to cancel our current RP if people would be willing to do an Echo Bazaar one? Heheh.

Yeah, it'd be pretty boss if we could communicate in-game, dunno why it hasn't been added yet. Could lead to a lot of quality RP and stuff. It would also help me not have to check the OP for in-game nicknames every time someone requests a heal or invitation :|

I have a proposition. If someone is willing to rob the museume of mistakes for me (with shadowy or persuasive 70+), then I will trade that for 15 healings/listening to nightmares/scandal reduction/shadowy reduction, of any combination you choose, in order to even the trouble of the robbery out for whoever accepts.

I would love to do some sort of echo bazaar RP! Sign me up if anything like that gets started... :) Also, if you need more coins go ahead a d invite me. It only takes me a day or two to get it done.

Hmm... Would we want to run it here? On its own forum? Maybe with an IRC? Heck, we could even have it chat-based like Improbable Island without it being too difficult, really. I've got a chat app I've already built that could easily be recruited for just such a service.

I'd just need to split it into multiple rooms, yes... Maybe a main room for each area? Hmmm...
