Configurations
Set some hotkeys for your inventory.
All your hotkeys are already set…you think. You have no idea what this is all about.
What do you do?
Tiramisu
Resist the urge to press “Home.”
Not much you could do even if you weren’t resisting this urge. How are you even supposed to be clicking these things? Instead, you just head to the roof of the high tower. You wish someone had invented elevators…whatever those are.
What do you do?
Tower defence
Once you’re on the roof, stare at the sunset. Appreciate the beauty of nature.
It is pretty nice.
What do you do?
That will teach him
Duel to the death!!!
The CondoR flees. Ha, his wings must hurt like hell from all that punching. Next time he’ll think twice before insulting you.
What do you do?
You are the champion
Do a victory dance
Overflowing with joy, you burst into a weird dance. You sure love wasting the team’s time.
What do you do?
Are we there yet?
Let’s just fly to where we are supposed to go.
You pay a 20-gp fee and get on your three-eyed bird.
What do you do?
Night of the flying five
Fasten your seatbelt and enjoy the flight.
There is no seat belt to fasten, you just grab the reinforced string and enjoy your flight. It’s getting dark and it could be a long night…you might want to think about some sort of entertainment.
What do you do?
Lessons in Birdian
Talk to your three eyed bird.
Good thing you took those lessons in Avian when you were in your early 70s.
What do you do?
Not too far away
Look for signs of life on the horizon.
You can’t see anything on the horizon with all this fog. Besides, it’s night, which makes things even harder to see.
What do you do?
Dogfight?
Engage in no strenuous activity long enough for your mana bar to fill.
You decide to fill Ray’s head with paper; not like he has anything else in there anyway. Your plan entertains you for 20 or so minutes, but you become bored afterwards.
What do yo do?
Houston…we, em…
Start the loading screen animation to fill the rest of the flight.
[game]
The loading screen animation will have to wait, as you are ambushed by…rocks? Now is a perfect time to try and cast some non-mana-consuming spells using the element of wind as your fuel.
What do you do?
Grab a rock and study it.
You attempt to grab the last rock, but the fragile thing breaks in half in your hands. This reveals its shiny contents: a lot of explosive gems. These are worth a fortune in jewelry shops…as long as you don’t trigger their explosive cores, you’ll be able to earn a lot of gp.
What do you do?
Murray the lighthouse
Store the gems in inventory.
You don’t exactly want to put these gems where you can’t see them, and a fictional, parallel reality is probably the worst place for them to be. You just stash them inside Murray. You might, at a later point, drop him off at some mayor’s office, to serve as a signal if crime is roaming freely or a giant monster is attacking the city.
What do you do?
Meanwhile…
Make shadow animals using Murray’s Lightbeam on the clouds. Preferably flying dragons.
You can’t quite manage a dragon, but you create an even more frightening beast. Meanwhile, on the ground…
What do you do?
Everywheeeere
Create a fictional play in which you slay the terrifying beast, much to the gratitude of the towns people.
You can’t have a good play without believable voices and special fire effects…the town people are surely grateful. Your work here is done.
What do you do?
Shedding some light
Point the light beam to different stuff to see how it looks/reacts.
Not much to point at up here–you just direct the light at several nearby objects. It does not appear that these gems possess any power beyond blowing up and costing a lot of money. This will surely be as much information as you will ever get about them…maybe now is the time to direct your attention elsewhere.
What do you do?
Sunny day
Pick a random page in the book for some peaceful, mana filling, reading.
You randomly flip the pages and read the section about greater spells.
The sun is up and it’s another beautiful day…how can we ruin it for the party?
What do you do?
Chinavillage
Arrive at your destination.
Your mount heads to the TaoKqai air travel tower.
What do you do?
Praise the lord(s)!
Examine spires.
You wander off like the irresponsible empty-head you are. These spires are big–like, really big. You’re not really sure what they’re supposed to be for, but there is a recurring symbol on one of them and a weird guy is weirding it out on the other side.
What do you do?
East vs. West
Outweird the weird guy.
The weird guy has been outweirded. His traditions and values have been mocked. Good job.
What do you do?
Ready for skinoff
Okay, that was fun. Get back to your party now.
Your stupidity quota for the morning is filled. You decide to return to your party, but as you walk away from the giant spire you hear a loud explosion-like sound. The spire is now airborne and your new yellow friend is…sleeping…yeah, that’s it…
What do you do?
Short(est) term memory
Look to Jane and say “That is NOT my fault!”.
Where DID that bird go anyway? You sure are bad with birds.
What do you do?
Fall of the fourth wall
Ask Jane why Murray is so important.
There goes the fourth wall.
What do you do?
Like the kings
Go look for a jeweler who could buy the green rocks.
[missing]
I bet you wish you had taken more.
What do you do?
Intermission
Manly shopping spree!
[gif]
Your shenanigans only cost you 65 gp. Looks like you’re still rich.
What do you do?
I AM MAGE
Buy a Mage wrist band
You’ve heard that these things are the new bumper stickers. This is said to be the most effective way to show your opinion or personality without speaking…but you tire of this shopping, time to get down to business.
What do you do?
Meet Pablo
Hire a bodyguard and resume adventuring.
I doubt she’ll let you keep him.
What do you do?
Mexicano alert
Buy a sombrero and a poncho and pretend to speak Spanish to Pablo.
NONSENSE. You have mastered the art of disguise-making, and make yourself an Español costume. Sadly, he wanders away and rambles something you don’t quite understand, but it’s probably best to just move on.
What do you do?
More of this walking
Next
This place might be tax-free, but it sure as hell doesn’t offer good travel opportunities. You have to personally request a boat from the king, or lord or main samurai or whatever, so you direct yourself to the palace.
What do you do?
Joe/James
Barge into the castle and scream something dramatic.
[missing]
Now that they have your attention.
What do you do?
All’s well
Just next and hope things don’t go really, really badly.
Hope is unneeded when you have drama to back you up.
