Let's see if I have this straight. You're lecturing him, then telling him to ignore your lecture. It's weird, yet mildly humorous. Also, it's Alorael. Unless you're referring to a new member. Also, Alorael doesn't speak in third-person. Quote: Originally written by -X-: 5 - You are illiterate. If -X-'s Book hadn't been ripped to peices by his brother, he would give you a "Noob" point. That's a hypocritical remark if I've ever seen one. And please, please stop calling members illiterate. Or, if you must call members illiterate, don't make a spelling error while doing so. I'd suggest getting FireFox 2.0. It has a built-in spellchecker which will help keep these mistakes from happening. Now, with all of that said, someone LOCK THIS TOPIC before it gets anymore spam.

I thought difficulty only increased health in the Avernum series.

I thought it was sort of like Life Drain from Avernum. Drains the life of the damaged person and gives it to the wielder.

You forgot Vlish tentacles.

Slartanalysis: Attack types

I keep picturing it as an Eyebeast with just one eye and a pair of wings. -
Please explain why this is relevant to this thread. And if you're so offended by her speaking in third-person, why are you doing the same?

This physically hurts. Well, patience is a virtue. Then again, whoever said that didn't have something this monumental to look forward to.

Because of Nioca and this forum's inactivity ...
Nioca replied to BainIhrno's topic in Blades of Exile
I don't play BoE that often, but I'll answer this survey to the best of my ability. How many PC's do you play with? Six. How many scenarios have you played? One. Absolute favorite BoE scenario? VoDT. When did you get the registered version of BoE for the first time? Um... Never? What is the first third-party scenario you played? None. Favorite all-around scenario designer? Kelandon Out of your own scenarios, which do you feel is your best? Don't have one. What is your favorite scenario icon? The one for ASR. If you could make one BoE scenario into a movie, which scenario would it be? I don't know... What is your favorite spell? Fireball. What is your favorite item of all time? (It doesn't matter how many scenarios have the item in it. Can be one, can be all.) Trusty healing potions. Have you ever named a place or character in a scenario after someone you know in real life? No. What do you think is the absolute most overrated BoE scenario of all time? I don't know. What do you think is the absolute most underrated BoE scenario of all time? Again, I on't know. If you could fix one bug in BoE or the scenario editor, what would it be? Yet again, I don't know. If you could add one new feature to BoE or the scenario editor, what would it be? *coughs* What is your least favorite scenario out of those rated 7.0 or higher on CSR? Um... Which scenario do you think is the worst ever? There's lots of horribles, but only one can be the absolute worst. Sadly, I don't know. Write down the release dates of all of your scenarios. If you can't remember all of them, do the ones that you can. None. What is your favorite TM scenario? N/A What is your favorite Creator scenario? N/A What is your favorite scenario in the Spheres trilogy? N/A What is your favorite scenario in the Adventurer's Club trilogy? N/A What do you think is the absolute coolest innovation in a BoE scenario yet? N/A What is your favorite BoE fansite? The Blazing Blade. What do you think would happen if Alcritas returned to the Lyceum as an active member once more? I honestly don't have a clue. What scenario do you think should have won the first design contest? N/A Name one random scenario that has not been mentioned by anyone in this thread (first that comes in your head.) Nephil's Gambit. If TM returned, and he and Kel continued to argue, do you think that should continue, or do you think they just have to duke it out? They should just continue. It's become something of a traditional past time. -
End of the month? I thought it was the 17th.

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.

1) Which is your favorite Avernum game? BoA. 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. 7) What is your favorite spear/pike/halberd? Lance of Justice. 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?

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. 16) Who is your favorite dragon?

Mmm, mmm, disgusting! 32) If there was one thing you could add to the Avernum series, what would it be? The ability to forge items, like in Geneforge. 33) What's your favorite special item? The Vahnatai Statue in A3. The description when you first get it is priceless. 34) Do you have your characters wear pants? Yes, and at all times. When I needed to place pants on the one rune, I literally went back to town just to find an extra pair of pants. 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.

...of which a literal translation is 'dragon'.

I have a quick two questions. First, there's this crazy cat who says something along the lines of, "Subvert the dominant paradigm." Is this important, or just Jeff poking some fun? Also, there's another fastidious feline who's hungry. Can you feed him, or not? (This is in the safehouse in Motrax's tunnels, which can only be reached via Orb of Thralni.)

...WHAT?!?!?!? It just goes to show you. When you think you know something about a game, it turns around and makes a liar out of you.

Tessability Black once mentioned she had a Cryoa plushie. Too bad she's not around anymore.

Quote: I've noticed in A3 that on a Windows PC you can cheat. Have I been misinformed? If you mean some sort of cheat code, than you probably were misinformed. Quote: Also what are the Give an item @'s in the Charcter Editior. I have no idea what you're talking about. Quote: And if you go further into Blackgrag with bribing the guards, if you attack them does your rep go down? What is this Blackgrag of which you speak? If you attack the thieves, your reputation will go down. Quote: If you knoe Move Mountains at lvl 3 you can break the walls down to sneak into the throne room if you don't have enough strength too deal with the giant's or the golems. Really? I'll have to try that sometime...

Are any of those Fyoras Nicothodes? I voted for the middle-of-the-road option.

You can always identify him by his ever-changing signature, or by his 12000+ post count.

Behold the Inescapable Pump and Alorael are one and the same. He just changes his PDN often. EDIT: Are. Not is. Are.

Item storage
Nioca replied to Peter Principle's topic in Avernum Trilogy (2000-2002 original versions)
True. However, we don't know how well he can script in AvernumScript (since A4 and the Geneforge series basically run off a modified version of this). For all we know, he might not even know what an SDF is. Besides, you'd have to do more than reset an SDF. You would have to revive a dead character.
