A3 : How do i get in to Erika's tower? in The Avernum Trilogy

Perhaps one can get in after finding the runes in the slime pits and having them identified as Erika's symbol. I'm pretty sure I've gotten into Erika's Tower in the demo. Unfortunately, my memory of the demo is very hazy.

Act 9, Scene 2 is up. (And for such a short scene, it took an amazingly long time for me to write.)

---------

Edit: Also, I put up two new pages. The appearances page lists all the members who appear. I recommend reading the all the scenes before you look at it. The reviews page lists selective comments made by members in throughout topic. The review page is rather a gray area because so many of the comments are taken out of context. Both will be updated whenever I deem it necessary. Like when a new scene comes out or when someone says something interesting.

---------

OOC: Did Slartucker notice Dikiyoba's location? Does that answer yesterday's question? What does "OOC" stand for? Will Dikiyoba ever respond to a question with a direct answer? Have you ever seen a pink giraffe?

---------

Edit 2: Page 18 already!

Axel, in Sweetgrove, will identify your items. His house is directly across from the inn.

Dikiyoba hopes that this is enough information to answer your question.

I don't think you should have to come up with backstories for characters, and thus none of mine have one. I'm of the belief that your actions and choices should define who they are. (That is, if you're even interested in a roleplaying expience anyway, which to me, is secondary to gameplay.)
That's great. You live in your world and we'll each live in ours.

Unfortunately, I haven't played A4 enough to come up with a fascinating backstory for my characters, but there's a few standard things.

The first two adventurers are nephil, Korat and Devon Rex. Korat is a nephar and is the best melee fighter though he is also a priest. Devon Rex is mainly a priest. The other two adventurers are sliths. Ali Gator is the youngest. She is a priestess. Her uncle is the rogue-mage Chuck Walla who knows some priest spells. Obviously, my adventurers are using pseudonyms, not their real names.

Dikiyoba's party has historically clobbered undead. Dikiyoba is waiting to see how effective they are against undead in A4.

That last line really must have been amazing. Three out of the last five posts have typos in them, despite being short. :P

Act 9, Scene 1 is done.

Edit: Added a few words so that the graemlin doesn't have a line to itself.

Did you notice any other references, Leon?

The next two scenes are out. It's funny that you mention burial, by the way.

Dikiyoba will not kill off 7,000 Spiderwebbers, purely for the reason that there aren't 7000 Spiderwebbers to kill. And some of the 6,900 odd Spiderwebbers have either been banned, left, or are really oldbies in disguise. Less than 200 Spiderwebbers post each month, and some of them are either lurkers or newbs. Most of the newbs are dead, and it doesn't look good for the lurkers. There's probably about only 100 Spiderwebbers to kill off, and some of them are already dead.

All of the noble gases have been taken except for argon and krypton, which is quite interesting. Helium's been claimed twice.

Is anyone going to start a list?

Here's who, Delicious Vlish.

—Alorael, who would rather think of himself as helium. This is because he is noble, aloof, and largely inert. He can also be inhaled for entertainment value.
Edit: Beaten to it. Now Dikiyoba must ponder the entertainment value of inhaling tentacles in this post instead.

Since everyone should die happy, I've edited the script so that Kelandon notices now.

Which brings me way back to the end of Act 4, Scene 4. Alorael complained that his character dies without a proper monologue. He now has a brillant dying line. Well, he now has something at least. And no, I didn't know what day today was when I wrote it.

Finally, Act 8, Scenes 2 and 3 are out.

I call neon. I'm unemotional, just like neon is cold and inert, and not much of a threat. Orange is my favorite color and I also attract attention sometimes.

Dikiyoba is disappointed that "Dikiyoba" cannot be spelled out using symbols from the periodic table of elements. Dikiyoba's real name can be.

Only a new post will bump up a topic, so it's probably wise to just create a new post so that people can see it. And even when that happens, it can take a while for someone who know the answer to respond to the question.

Dikiyoba can type in third person with no problem. Speaking in third person is slightly more difficult but Dikiyoba does it anyway. There's really no need to worry.

Edit: Added quote.

Anyway, Act 8, Scene 1 is up.

I also made a few edits to Act 1 to include more members. The additions are below in bold.

Act 1, Scene 1:

quote:

The forum is very quiet. Alorael is stitching his next moniker into a quilt square. Thuryl is secretly posting and deleting, to make up for the days he missed last month. Saunders is eating a sandwich. Kelandon is instant messenging Marlenny. Drakefyre is deciding which detail of Geneforge 4 to release, and also is deciding whether to check it for accuracy or not. Schrodinger is busy adding to the Avernum 4 walkthrough. Imban is busy being eveyone everywhere, though it looks suspiciously like meditating. Suddenly, Delicious Vlish runs in.
Act 1, Scene 2:

quote:
Kelandon: Next! Well, you look fine. No blemishes on your account. Of course, you haven't ever posted. And you look fine too. Just came here for technical help? Sorry about all this. Shaper Lord, what do you have to say for yourself?

Shaper Lord: This forum is stupid. I don't see why anyone would waste their time attacking it, let alone defending it.

Kelandon: Well, you don't have to. But you won't get any more chances to insult it, either.

Shaper Lord disappears in a cloud of smoke. Drakefyre enters.
-----------

Edit: Oh yeah. I also changed Eddie's name to Commander Eddie. That's all. For now.

Dikiyoba isn't sure which one is worse.

Edit: Dikiyoba has decided it is the second one. The second one, however, is mildly humorous, so it's still a tough decision.
