Oh shizzy, nosebleed. Also, it looks like I really gotta mess with my scanner's levels. They're all wonky. Frickin' linux. :roll: Anyway: If it's not clear, the door--that is, the way you just came--was to the north.

More tomorrow!

Code: Select all

look in backpack

You should link it, if it's on the 'nets somewhere. I wouldn't mind seeing that. :D

That stuff in code was for me, right?

No Necronomicon, but you do have GURPS books...

Frickin' little sisters! SO lame. Guess you'll have to try and find a Necronomicon or something.

Seems the door's locked, and you're way too big of a pansy to kick it down.
Also, your nose has (mostly) stopped bleeding.

It doesnt appear to be in order but I labeled it with what I remembered since I forget where the thread was.

REMOVE Item:Journal(Loot) FROM Inventory
USE Item:Journal(Loot) [Read it]

*cue flashback*

Query:
Is the loot automatically added to inventory (added to backpack)?
Does the backpack have practical limits (volume, encumbrance)?
Are you following any particular rule system (D&D, d20, GURPS, etc)?

It seems we're at a crossroads. The hallway continues South, with branches going East and West.

I apologize for not being more familiar with The Green Lantern.

Is it broken? Is it a cheap replica from a cereal box? Or is it merely out of juice? WE MAY NEVER KNOW. At any rate, it doesn't work.

(In case it's not clear, Telly, that is a KEY he's trying to summon, not a phallic object. There are jaggies on the left edge, it's just that the fat marker lines swallowed them a bit is all.)

Apologies for not being more familiar with the intricacies of writing as a civil war veteran.

Oh my. I don't think that last bit was relevant.*

He must of died while writing it. But, if he was actually dying why would he bother to write it?

I'm gonna chill for the rest of the night. Be back tomorrow!

I'm gonna say that loot is automatically added to inventory, and that the backpack is pretty much limitless, mostly because it would just be a waste of time to be like, "So, guys, how much of this shit do you want to keep?" Also, to be clear, you didn't forget to check your pockets or anything.

As far as rules go: Screw rules. I'm just doing what I want and what feels right.


*I mostly blame Telly for this one. Well, okay, the actual story was my idea, but she's the one that joked about a bad slashfic! :(

I'll tackle this one tomorrow, then deal with other requests. I don't normally want to do this many at once, just so everyone knows. I have (what I think are) good reasons to do so this time, though. So, yeah, like, you'll see...or something.
