Theros:  Does random mean potentially a good or bad effect?

Did you miss this or is it a secret?


EDIT-  You can have my training sword if you want.

[lawastooshort]

I could get just the blue ring and buy you a weapon for €25. I don't know what they do. Ask the lovely shopkeeper what the 3 products I want, and the shield, do.

If she knew, she'd tell you. She occasionally gets cursed or otherwise vile things, though, so she's in the habit of selling stuff without exactly checking out what it does.

Most shopkeeps will be like this, by the way. You'll get a basic description of the item, but not know if it has any special properties until after you buy it.

Buy the  iron sword and shield.
Find a training yard for weapon training in exchange for work.

You have to pay for training, right?

[wolfchild]

Sure I'll take it toast, not like I'm going to be hitting that well anyway

Buy some plate-mail and use toast's training sword

I wrote a response and then my horrible tab system ate it. So...

It's random. When you invoke it, the result could be anywhere between horrible, to mediocre, to MIND-SHATTERINGLY AWESOME.

Also.

Training? I didn't think you guys would be wanting training. Looks like I get to come up with a training mechanic now, oh joy.

[Toaster]

Noted.  Sounds like I may cause some Fun (or !!Fun!!) with it!

Buy a red ring, a blue ring, and a glowing amulet! Equip them (blue ring on the right hand and red on the left) and strap my accordion to my back and put my knife in my quick-access sheath on the accordion so that when I shift my shoulders the accordion swings around in front of me for both easy playing and ease of access to the knife. If I have time test out my purchases.


So TherosPherae, in terms of PP, do you have a rough idea of what we can do with, say, 1PP? Or will we discover shortly?

That is to say, I suppose, is quivering in fear at the rear mostly naked in my loincloth and using whatever powers I have going to be a reasonable tactic? [please note: your answer probably affect my burning desire to do this. Grigor is not pro-armour.]


[Can I explode minds?]

[Can I explode minds?]

PP is used to implement your psychic powers. Methods of restoring it without significant amounts of rest are... rare. So it'll get auto-restored after certain plot points, and you might find a few items that can restore it midway through a plot.

Quivering in fear at the back in your loincloth might work, it might not. You'll just have to see what your most recent purchases do.

And right now, none of you can explode minds. You might gain that ability later, though.

[lawastooshort]

Ok, that's cool, I just wondered how much about our powers our characters would know and how much you would give away. Thanks!

Browsing the scrap, James decided to buy the glowing thing, the whatzamajiggit and two doohickeys

You buy the stuff and carry it to an alley in a box the hobo so courteously provided. Once there, you dig around in the box to find: [2] a worm-ridden apple, [5] a slightly damaged Quantum Accelerator, [3] an unopenable ammobox, and [3] 2 wrenches. Well these could be useful... you guess...

If I have time test out my purchases.

You buy the red ring, blue ring, and glowing amulet, and put them all on after adjusting your accordion and knife. You feel an influx of magical properties, and manage to identify which corresponds to which artifact. [1] Unfortunately, the red ring seems to be cursed and is draining your lifeforce to provide its properties - one of which is freezing itself to your finger. Well, that's not coming off any time soon. You also got an [3] Amulet of Blockage and [4] a blue ring of HP. Not a bad haul, except the red ring.

Buy the iron sword and shield. Find a training yard for weapon training in exchange for work.

You buy an iron sword and an iron shield, then forgo testing them for curses and magical properties and whatnot to instead find a training yard. You [6] find a training yard, and they even offer to train you in the use of a sword in exchange for little more than an advertisement from someone with blue eyes! Gained Ability: Swordsman!

Buy two axes. Cause I'm a rebel.

You buy two axes like a boss. [2] [2] You wield them, and they both stick to your hands. You flail around, but they won't come off more than about an inch.

+ pair of cursed iron axes

Buy an Iron Sword from the Smith and a Shining Ring from the curio shop.  Equip both.

You buy an Iron Sword, then run over to the Curio Shop to buy a ring. Successful in both endeavors, you equip your new gear, and [3] the new sword works fine. The ring, [1] however, has frozen to your hand and is thoroughly messing with your accuracy. You also hand Micheal your training sword.

Sigh, and start looking for a place to get un-cursed.

[lawastooshort]

Sigh, and start looking for a place to get un-cursed.

Also do this, whilst mentally preparing myself to chop off the cursed ring finger.

[wolfchild]

Mentally tell myself to inspect everything BEFORE purchase, go and get some sparing done, focus on defence
