I was wondering if anyone had a general idea what what exactly happens for the skribbane addiction in EXILE (not avernum) III, at least if they are different, that is. What I mean is, what exactly are the effects of the addiction, how long does it take to become unaddicted, etc. -------------------- *I am not a guest. http://www.spinnweb.com/zbb: A Board Posts: 127 | Registered: Wednesday, February 20 2002 08:00 |

I never got rid of the addiction. It stays forever and ever. You can use the Editor to remove it. (This never worked for me) The effects; Your MP and HP get drained every x# of turns.

If you wait long enough, the addiction will wear off. But it does take a long time. The severity and duration of the addiction depends on how much sribbane you use, obviously. I stocked up on scribbane before entering the Footracer Province in Exile 3, then continually used it until the end of the game, though that really only amounts to a few game days. -------------------- What do I put here? -Garrison Posts: 1415 | Registered: Thursday, March 27 2003 08:00 |

You drink skribbane-- it comes in a potion bottle. You drink gremlin wine-- it comes in a jug. You drink mushroom beer-- it comes in a mug. You eat poppy shrooms. You eat soporific herbs-- possibly smoke? Haven't figured out what else there is. -------------------- Wasting your time and mine looking for a good laugh.

I was under the impression that one normally *eats* skribbane, and Alorael has developed technology that extracts the chemicals involved in a distilled form and drinks it. After all, the unfortunates in Gale had bits of the plant on the sides of their mouths and on their collars, not some weird liquid drooling out of their mouths. -------------------- Arancaytar: Every time you ask people to compare TM and Kel, you endanger the poor, fluffy kittens.

The fine skribbane connoisseur will drink the extract of the plant, while the crass consumer may simply chew the leaves into a pulpy green mess. As a matter of fact, I am the only one to do the former, because I snipe anyone else who tries to take my precious, precious skribbane. As you can see, I had an effect: the orange potion bottles of skribbane available in E3 disappeared by the release of A3. You know where they went. For the more game-related question, you can get skribbane in Gale, from many places with Rakshasi, and as a special item in Shayder. Eating skribbane gives you a health and spell point (or energy, in A3) boost that can take you over the normal limits, but addiction is rather crippling. You're fine if you use skribbane once or twice, but use it a lot and it stops having positive effects. If you run out, though, you'll find out why your parents told you (or should have told you) not to do drugs. (No, it's not because I'll snipe you. There are other bad reasons too, believe it or not.) —Alorael, who is filled with nostalgia for the stupid sniping and skribbane jokes of yesteryear. He needs to remember to trot these out more regularly to keep the newbies educated and the oldbies groaning and howling for blood. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

I want blood! Whooooooop! Skribbane must be cleansed from the face of the world! Why? It's bad competition for the alcoholics out there...

Ahh the finer potions of Avernum I prefer restoration brew-- it has a nice kick. Gremlin merlot is excellent as well. Although not an alcoholic potable, a steady supply of energy elixirs is most pleasant. -------------------- Wasting your time and mine looking for a good laugh.

Skribbane is wonderful. Why wouldn't you put it in a game? —Alorael, who does have to wonder if it increased E3/A3's rating a little bit. Posts: 14579 | Registered: Saturday, December 1 2001 08:00 |

Seeing as how little detail the general shape of the world and its other continents got, I think including one drug is perfectly enough. The purpose of the game isn't Skribbane (though Alo will disagree on that point). -------------------- The Encyclopaedia Ermariana <-- Now a Wiki!

What is it copied on? You can chew tobacco leaves and coca leaves, so it's one of these two, right? Although, I can't imagine drinking tobacco juice, Alorael must be one tough customer. -------------------- I'm tired of the strain and the pain ___ ___ ___ I feel the same, I feel nothing Nothing is important to me ___ ___ ___ ___ __ And nobody nowhere understands anything About me and all my dreams lost at sea ___ __ But we’re not the same, we’re different tonight We’ll make things right, we’ll feel it all tonight _ The indescribable moments of your life tonight The impossible is possible tonight ___ ____ ___ Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight Go All Blacks xtraMSN Rugby _ MuggleNet Posts: 1112 | Registered: Friday, July 19 2002 07:00 |
