Healing can be painful. See the first chapter and the spike trap. Fuck.

A detailed summary of your skills would be helpful. We know you're skilled with fencing-style swordfighting, and know a spell that can create fire, but it would be helpful to have a more accurate understanding of the extent of your personal abilities.

So, our final list is, apparently, as follows:

Broadsword, Shield, Rod of Healing (for poking things), Potion of healing (not including painkiller), oil, rope, torch. food (let's say enough for 120% of the time we expect to be gone.)

Any issues, or should we proceed?

>>25977

Money

>>25983
Ah, yes. Ideally, we shouldn't need it, but it's certainly a good idea to have some just in case. 20 coins should be sufficient.

Any amount of money we carry is going to be exactly 80% of the money we need to purchase what we desire. Knowing this fact is called being genre savvy. But sure. Carry all the money.

>>26000
We're not actually planning to purchase anything.

We're not PLANNING to, no. Doesn't mean an opportunity won't arise.

>>26006
which is why we're bringing any money at all. We might, at some point, need to shell out a few gold to someone to not mention they saw us for a few hours. That's the only real possibility for expenditure. And worst-case scenario, killing the guard is almost as good.

Babrakus says he can make me a simple bed for 10 gold.
Tislomer has limited recipes and shows me what he has to offer. I realize I still have the minor healing potion he gave me earlier and I hold onto that.

I'll also be bringing my:
Sword and shield
Depleted rod of Healing
Jug of Oil
Bite of Rope
Torch

Food isn't an issue when I'm here, since I can just eat the modest crops Tislomer produces, but when I go out, I probably should bring something along just in case the journey ends up being a lengthy one.
So for food, I'll bring the Bread, Cheese, and Minotaur's Milk.

>>26023
Where... where did you get the milk?

>>26026
Female minotaur, better not to ask. GET ON WITH IT.

>>26023
We're doing stealth action so get at least one sleep potion.

Can sleep be used by putting some on a weapon blade? either way, it does seem like it would be useful.

I'd say spend the money on a potion of blindness, for potential flinging-into of people's eyes, providing it wouldn't delay the trip.

It was in the item box when I first looted it, remember?

The potions can all be whipped up handily, so it won't delay the trip.

Awesome!

>>26040
Hasn't that milk been in there for a bit too long?

>>26049
Hmm... maybe we should put a hat on too...

Potion of Blindness, Potion of Sleep... see if you can get a few small empty vials with stoppers as well. Since you've got a jug of oil, you could cobble together some fire bombs or chuckable slick spots if the need arose.
A secondary goal should probably be to improve our alchemical options. Even with what we've got, we have fun possibilities.

>>26049
Not half bad, Muscio.

>>26049
...I like it!

Though it may not hide your identity well. What with the, uh, giant nose, and all.

I just remembered I have another hat too.

As long as I'm stacking ridiculous haberdashery upon my scalp, perhaps you would like this as well.

>>26064
now you're just being silly.

>>26064
Okay okay, get the potions and let's get to work.

>>26064
Well, now you're just being silly.

>>26064
naw, that's just silly.

>>26064
Seriously? No wonder you listen to us... put that hat UNDER the first hat. Geeze.

Just. Take the hats and the skull off and go get those potions before this train of thought can proceed to its logical conclusion of wearing everything on your head.

>>26065
>>26067
>>26068
sillymind!

as a sidenote, we could probably paint runes on the skull for maximum awesome. Runes make everything better.

>>26059
Actually, the skull doesn't look too bad on you. It's got kindof an Evil Overlord feel to it. You've usually got more of a Mad Scientist look, with that hair.
But maybe we should only save it for special occasions. Y'know, when we want to look imposing.

I say go ahead and commission that bed, it'll be done by the time we get back. After that, we should probably stock up on a couple extra healing potions, and anything else the other voices think we need.

>>26075
Agreed.

NO, NO! As long as I'm stacking ridiculous garbage on my face I might as well go with gusto!

After all, I need to look as "badass" as possible!

>>26078
That's quite a dexterous feat, actually.
I bet you stack dice like a motherfucker.

I think you look good with just the skull, Muzzles. <3

never had to say this before.

With naught but a few minor modifications, the skull can become a truly epic piece of headgear!

As soon as you get yourself a decent hat, this nonsense stops. Just for its own sake, you may want to put that a stitch higher on your to-do list.

Let's leave his headgear alone, guys. I think that long face of his is quite cute.

Seriously, boss. Let's make stocking up a priority. Do we have any means of recharging that wand of healing? We cannot recall how wands work. Perhaps you would know?

>>26084
Actually it's the same as before. Besides, you said you wanted to be the Devil! What sort of self-respecting ultimate evil doesn't have horns, huh?

>>26084
'Bout the same actually...

Are we... are we going to go yet?

I wanna go to the tower.

Just cough and sidle out of the room as if nothing is unusual. I wish we had a horse.

Ask her if she wants to touch your headgear.

I'm pretty sure we did. It was a ventilation system if I'm not mistaken.

Y'know what, Muschio? You can just explain this shit to her by yourself.

SOME HELP YOU ARE

"Oh. Finesse. Yes, you see... um. Heh. It's uh... hm. Ahem.
Yes. Well."

Go on. Tell her exactly what the fuck you were thinking.
I'D LIKE TO KNOW TOO.

>>26116
It's your people's custom! Your weird ass long nosed custom!

>>26116
Just say you were mad at one of the stupid suggestions the orb made and took it to a logical conclusion. Come on, we have places to be.
This is assuming you mentioned the orb during your four days of moping. Otherwise, GOOD LUCK.

Yes, because he wants to admit he's dependent on the insane ramblings of a hunk of glass because he can't make his own decisions.

You can always explain weird behavior as being foreign.

We could explain the situation.
We could blame Xom
We could say its a custom
We could claim we dont owe her an explenation

>>26116
Don't listen to the masochistic part, he's a dick. Just tell her to tinker the helmet for you, I mean geez, we pay good money for her. Besides, maybe it results in something awesome?

>>26144
On one socket, a magnfying lens, in the other, a slot for magickal jewels like those used for true seeing.

Change the subject. Ask if she has any good suggestions for appropriate headgear, preferably face-diguising.

"I'm sorry, I just listen to the voices in my orb a little too closely."

So, now that we're out of that little embarrassment...

Muschio, don't get embarrassed. You are in charge. Celebrate your eccentricity. If Finesse thinks it's odd, she's the one in the wrong. Because you're an evil overlord. Remember that.

YES, I managed to pick up a potion of blindness and a potion of sleep as you requested, before I made an utter fool of myself. Babrakus also knows I need a bed. This brings me down to 14 gold.
