I don't quite understand. Is there anyway you could post a screenshot of this?

Anyway, since you got Morog's Dragon Scroll, there's no need to find the Melora Opal located in the empire fort.

Surprise surprise, it went through both times.

Musical themes and inspiration... in Blades of Avernum

Agadia Isle's theme would probably be "Bittersweet Symphony" by The Verve. Parts of it symbolize the conflicts of interest between Agadia and the Empire, and also defines a small note of irony in the scenario.

Depends. Who do you consider 'interesting'? Nikki does something rather 'interesting' though, as does Tullegolar. And I do something that I'll probably regret later.

Which brings me to a minor irritation with this chapter. I always refer to Tullegolar as Tullegolar, not Tully or Lego or Ego. Also, I'm a fairly competent scripter myself.

That said, I think Nikki is going to get a shock if he goes through with his plan. The Misc. Forum isn't exactly empty...

The ability to purchase skills in the shopping area would be nice. If you have a lot of extra gold, you can make an investment in your skills, rather than lugging around a massive purse.

Also, how about a God Necklace?

EDIT: And a potion of Incredible Restoration, which grants +10000 HP and SP, and cures all illness.

You can get into two of the rooms. The first one has a damaged protective rune, which you can just walk over. The second one can be accessed by finding a secret door in the south wall of Khoth's main chambers. The big library, though is completely off-limits. Unless you like roasted party members.

That's a little harsh. He's not asking you to pity him. He's just pointing out his own personal experience.

I think I'm becoming some sort of translator and defender of Tullegolar. I can't tell whether I'm more proud or frightened by this.

What treachery? I have no plans of betrayal, nor do I intend to bear false witness. All I did was debate your points.

Assumptions... Ah, what a dangerous thing...

EDIT: For the record, I have no intentions of overthrowing the current management, for both logical and practical reasons. First, while the boards do have some flaws, they're good enough as they are. Second, it would only do more damage than good in the long run. Third, how many people would remain if it was overthrown. The only ones I can see that would stay would be me, Tullegolar, -X-, Slartucker, and Arancaytar. And the last two would only be there because, when the rebellion is in full swing, that enraged fluffy turtle would probably slip back into the boards, and chase the two of them around, desirous for vengeance.

Besides, cunning is quick, reactive, fresh... Also, treachery reduces everyone's trust in you. Not just the people you betrayed.

AverCensus in Avernum 4
Shaper
Member # 7472
Profile Homepage #6
There's been a bit of confusion about question 5, so allow me to clarify. In each of the Avernum installments, the spell roster has been slightly different. Certain spells were heavily modified or replaced with new spells. Examples of this are Bind Foe (replaced in A3 with Spray Acid), Safe Travel (replaced in BoA with Enduring Barrier), Capture Soul (changed in BoA to Capture Mind), Simulacrum (function was heavily changed in BoA), and probably a few more that I'm missing. Hopefully that clears things up.

2) What is your favorite melee weapon class? Melee (Daggers/Swords)
3) What is your favorite missile weapon class? Bows
4) What is your favorite spell in Avernum? Arcane Shield, though A4's Smite is a close runner-up.
5) What spell did you like in an earlier Avernum game, but was removed in a later sequel? Bind Foe.
6) What is your favorite dagger/sword? Icy Longsword, or the one-handed Demonslayer in A4.

8) What is your favorite bow/crossbow? Fury Crossbow.
9) What is your favorite thrown missile? Sling, or the A4 Fine Razordisks.
10) Which enemy type do you hate the most? Gazers, especially the earlier ones that could sap Spell energy.
11) If you could stand-in for any character in the game aside from the party, which character would you choose? Cheeseball. Don't ask why.
12) If you could stop or change one event in Avernum, what would it be? The destruction of Cotra.
13) Who is your favorite character, aside from the party? That Empire Archer that was slimed down in the Slime Pits near Krizan. The guy was a loon, and yet was hilarious.
14) Which Black Shade did you like the most? (A4) The Black Shade of Ice. The other two seemed somewhat disappointing.
15) If you could destroy one being in Avernum, who/what would it be? Emperor Hawthorne.

28) If you could travel to any of the continents on the surface, which one would you choose? Vatanas.

35) If Avernum had lost the Avernum/Empire War, what do you think would've happened? The Empire would have left Avernum abandoned, after killing it's inhabitants.
