I remember this object from a previous playing, and after a haitus of a couple of years, I have realised that I enjoy the comments produced by this item. Can someone please tell me where to find him/her/it? -------------------- Slate Beauty I Look Down From Castle of the Winds Posts: 19 | Registered: Thursday, February 1 2007 08:00 |

The Xian skull is on a hill near Bolton in A3, I believe. It's being worshiped by some ogres. -------------------- My Myspace, with some of my art The Lyceum - The Headquarters of the Blades designing community The Louvre - The Blades of Avernum graphics database BoE Webring - Self explanatory They Might Be Giants - Four official websites for one of the greatest bands in existence Posts: 2957 | Registered: Thursday, October 4 2001 07:00 |

It's east of the river and south of Golddale and the nephil community. What's with giant types worshipping a talking skull? You have it in Nethergate also, Posts: 4643 | Registered: Friday, February 10 2006 08:00 |

Maybe talking skulls know a bunch of jokes that make fun of regular-sized people and their strange ways. :P Dikiyoba. -------------------- Episode 4: Spiderweb Reloaded Posts: 4346 | Registered: Friday, December 23 2005 08:00 |

I don't really care for the Xian Skull; it says a lot of meaningless comments, and has very little (if any) useful information. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts. And I know I'm not crazy because the little man who lives on my shoulder told me so. If people don't think there's something wrong with you, there's something wrong with you. Oh well.

Anything can be "damned" because it means to curse or condemn. "Darn" means to fix a hole in a sock. Xian items are irksome overall, there's only fun for a short duration of time. -------------------- Decca Records - "We don't like their sound. Groups of guitars are on the way out."

If I remember correctly, the Xian coin granted insufficient quantities of money to make it effective. -------------------- Decca Records - "We don't like their sound. Groups of guitars are on the way out." Posts: 1384 | Registered: Tuesday, February 6 2007 08:00 |

True, but every little bit helps, especially if you're just one or two coins away from something you want to buy. This has happened to me on a few occasions. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts. And I know I'm not crazy because the little man who lives on my shoulder told me so.

Wouldn't killing week enemies be quicker than the Xian Coin, I tossed the coin the minute I got it and very rarely went back to pick it up again. -------------------- When I close my eyes at night I see David Bowie. PLAY AVERNUM 1!!!!!!!!!!! Posts: 157 | Registered: Saturday, August 25 2007 07:00 |

Quicker? Under most circumstances, yes. But I just happened to be in a town and one gold short for a purchase when the coin's ability kicked in. I guess it was probably just luck (but not the character ability "luck"). -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Money adds weight? That's news to me, and I've been playing Jeff's games for almost a decade now. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

I didn't think they did. Good news for me, because I tend to hoard cash. -------------------- Either I'm crazy, or everybody else is nuts.

Xian Coins are probably the only useful Xian Item in Avernum 3. -------------------- "I am Barzhal, and I am here to ask you a question: Is a man not entitled to the products of his own essence? No, says the servile in Medab. It belongs to the oppressed. No, says the Shaper in Terrestia. It belongs to the Shaper Council. No, says the Trakovite in hiding. It belongs to no-one. I rejected those answers. Instead, I chose something different. I chose the impossible. I chose… Ascension." Posts: 136 | Registered: Wednesday, September 12 2007 07:00 |
