Ham banner

2008-01-08T03:59:03Z

Jade:

{{item
|descid=9885507
|itemid=Unknown
|name=ham banner
|image=ham-banner.gif
|desc= The biggest problem with this thing is not that it's somehow supposed to be a weapon made out of cloth, though that is a problem. The real issue is that it's just such an unlikely thing to have been produced. The only place you can imagine this coming from is one of those national food product councils that gets together and decides you need to eat more of whatever food they represent. In this case, ham, apparently. Not even pork as a whole, or an array of cured meats from a pig (that bacon lobby can just go to hell, right?), but specifically ham. No pork chops, no pork loin; no shoulder, no ribs, no belly. No pickled pigs' feet. No chitlins, no pork rinds. Just ham.

Even that isn't really so crazy. What's crazy is that they then must have acted on their impulse for self promotion by coming to the conclusion the best way to sell ham is to print up a few hundred thousand flags depicting their chosen meat. And then, just in case not enough people recognized the iconic food, they also went ahead and slapped on a three-letter label, "HAM." Not an actual tagline, mind you, such as "Ham is good food," or "Ham, the strangely pink meat," or even "Well, if you don't have a Snickers, ham is reasonably satisfying, too." No, just "HAM" all by itself.

And somehow this idea must have made it through a creative subcommittee, and a budget oversight committee, and passed a majority vote on the Ham Council of Twilight before actually receiving enough grade-A stamps of approval to be put into operation. But pass it did. And print they did. And put it out in public someone must have, because here it is now, out in the open with you looking at it.

And the really weird thing, the truly, deeply, odd fact of the matter is ... you want one of these ham banners for yourself. And that disturbs you to the core. But nonetheless, you really, really want one.

Found randomly when using a [[Backpack]].

=When Used=

You activate the medkit. In an electronic voice it murmurs, "This won't hurt a bit" before riddling you with painful shots. Most of them numb you, and the last shot provides an amnesiac effect. Ahh, you do feel better. That really didn't hurt at all! You gain '''30-33''' HP.

{{underconstruction|comment=templates, XP/HP min and max gains confirmation}}
'''[[Gotta Move Quick]]'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-front.jpg|right]]You're crossing what used to be a deserted street, until a taxi comes careening around a corner at twice the speed it ought to be driving, hits a pothole, and veers to the side just enough that it's speeding directly at you. You've gotta move! Now!<br>
*Dive left<br>
*Dive right<br>
*Jump straight into the air<br>

<br clear="all">
==Results==

'''Dive Left''' <br>
[[Image:taxi-rear.jpg|right]]
You dive left, barely evading the taxi and rolling onto the sidewalk. You roll back into a standing position, look yourself over, and realize that you're completely unharmed. It's actually a pretty smooth move, once you calm down enough to think about it, and you spend a few minutes practicing some other tumbles.

'''You gain 50-60 XP'''<br clear="all">

'''Dance to the Right'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-rear.jpg|right]]
Instinctively you leap to the right. The taxi whizzes by just inches from you, but you're okay. Off balance, you have to take several long strides before you can re-orient yourself and come to a stop. On the ground in front of you is an abandoned backpack. You pick it up and look inside, hoping to find a name or address to be able to return it, but there aren't any identifying marks. Figuring it's just going to disappear if you leave it hear, you take the pack with you.

'''You got an item: [[backpack]]'''<br clear="all">

'''It's the Only Game in Town''' <br>
[[Image:taxi-rear.jpg|right]]
''Without [[High-jump boots]]:''<br>
You try to jump over the cab, figuring that's the cool way for a superhero to handle the situation. Unfortunately your jump isn't quite powerful enough, and the "Egnaro Cab" sign just barely clips your right foot as it zips underneath. The contact sends you flying, skidding and scraping across rough asphalt, scattered debris, and broken glass.
<br>
You figure to pull a move like that off, you'd need some better jumping power. Practice might do it eventually, but if you had some springy boots or something like that, it could help.

You lose '''15-18''' HP.

<br clear="all">
[[Image:sparxx.jpg|right]]
''Wearing [[High-jump boots]]:''<br>
You make a mighty leap, sailing up, up, way up, over the rebel taxi and deep into the night sky. Surprised at the height of the leap, you land off balance and have to scrabble on a slightly slanted roof to keep from falling back to the ground far below.

When you finally right yourself and take a moment to look around, you're surprised to see other silhouetted figures running, jumping, and tumbling across the irregular sea of rooftops. Points of conflict are illuminated by bright sparks, eerie glows, and small explosions, as the figures play what looks almost like some deadly game of tag.

As you watch, a young woman who would look fairly normal if not for the fact that her hair was made of fire, drops from out of nowhere and lands gracefully not too far from where you stand. You tense, but she smiles and nods in greeting, saying "Heya, fellow hero! How's it goin'?"

You stammer for a moment before managing to ask, "What's going on?"

She looks at you for a second and then says, "Ah, you must be new. This is where most of the action is. The bad guys are always running around downtown, trying to pull off some scheme or another. And us good guys are trying to stop them. For the most part we try to keep it off the streets. Not sure why, it's just more fun up here." You nod, seeing how that might make sense. Kind of.

"Anyway," she says, "I'm Catherine Sparsisky. My friends call me Sparxx." You introduce yourself and chat for another few moments, until another woman in strangely sparkling armor dashes by. Sparxx says, "Oops, gotta go! I've got a score to settle with that alchemist." In a flash of fire and ice she's gone, leaving only a small puddle of water behind where she stood.

You look around again, soaking in the scene. Heroes and villains, fighting on the rooftops over downtown. Heroes you never even knew existed. And far more villains than you'd ever suspected. As you watch, some muscular brute and a naturalist (if the companion wolf is any indication) lock arms and grapple, while above them a levitating psion and a someone in a lab coat hurl bolts of mental energy at each other. Off in the distance you see a woman throw an electrified net over a diving shadowy figure, and to the side you can see first a burst of flame from an elemental hero, and then a flash of glittering dust that seems to extinguish the fires almost immediately.

Yeah, you think, I could get used to this place.

Jade:

First - you have twelve accounts?! Also, how many items is all the items? Have you got all the Talismans and stuff? Or are you counting it across several accounts? --[[User:Rombo|Rombo]] 15:10, 23 November 2007 (EST)

Yes, I have 12. It's simply because I got bored and wanted more opportunity for bug finding/testing. I have all the items minus the abaddon's charm, the crib sheet, and any items not yet found by me or reported to me. I haven't counted the full total yet, but I will soon. I've got them all on my main account. Not counting class talismans and quest items and such. - Satan

Yeah, well which of us has the [[Abaddon Charm]]? Hmm? Yeah... that's what I thought, hee. [[User:Cristiona|Cristiona]] 01:52, 24 November 2007 (EST)

You can't count yours, you bought it lol. I'm definitely gonna get mine the legit way, Cris. - Satan

It's in my inventory, isn't it? And then there's always [[crib sheet|this]]... ;) [[User:Cristiona|Cristiona]] 19:00, 7 December 2007 (MST)

When did you get a crib sheet? I don't remember you having one lol... - Satan

Waaaaay back in Alpha. I was one of the first people to get one. -Cris

==When was "spoiling" not allowed?==
Why was the entire article for the new zone deleted, and then copy/pasted to a new page by you? I thought the whole point of a wiki was to spade out and spoil everything in the game for people who want to know. If it's not for spoilers, then most of the articles here need to be deleted. Ex: assembling recipes (software, clothing, and welding combinations),enemies, quests, rare item drops, and effects for starters. Also, if "spoiling" is not allowed, then please make a large post on the front page to announce that policy and detail what exactly entails a "spoiler". - [[User:Jade|Jade]] 22:41, 23 December 2007 (MST)

Shadowy figure

2007-12-23T14:18:14Z

Jade:

[[Image:shadowy-figure.jpg]]

You are fighting a shadowy figure.

A dark shape, a shadow of a shadow, slides from a spot of inky blackness into a square of only the dimmest illumination. Cowled from head to toe in black, swathed in the night, this figure is the epitome of blackness. How much more black could he be? None more. None more black. On the blackness scale, he's already gone to eleven. Maybe eleven and a half.

Your opponent attacks ... Your attacker slips on a banana peel that was hidden in the darkness. Which brings up the eternal question: Is slapstick still slapstick if nobody can see the slap or the stick?

Your opponent attacks ... The lights from a passing train reflect off of a parabolic mirror on a nearby building and temporarily blind you both. You make a note to talk to the architect of the building about that horrible design. Later, though. Not now.

Your opponent attacks ... In the dark he misses you and nearly stabs himself. Sometimes a little light might be a good thing.

You gain 70-100 chips.

You gain 90 experience.

Crazy scientician

2007-12-23T14:18:10Z

Jade:

[[Image:crazy-scientician.jpg]]

You are fighting a crazy scientician.

When bad students with good minds fail out of accredited colleges and want to continue their research, their only choice is to enroll in a distance learning program in the field of Scientifics. This scientician has a concentration in Potent Potables, which she has taken at the 100, 200, and 300 levels thus far. She'll be taking Potent Potables 400--which meets twice daily--in the fall with Dr. A. Terbeck.

Your opponent attacks ... She gulps down a can of some fizzing potion. For a moment, nothing happens. Then she belches loudly. Confused, the scientician looks at the can in her hand. "Gingerette?" she says. "How did that get in there?"

Your opponent attacks ... The scientician shoots you with an inflamminator. If you had been on fire, it would have put it out, but as it is it does nothing.

You gain 128 chips.

You gain 105 experience.

Armored warrior

2007-12-23T14:17:42Z

Jade:

[[image:armored-warrior.jpg]]

You are fighting an armored warrior.

You face a woman dressed in strange metal armor, apparently made from an alloy or alloys that you don't recognize. The look in her eyes says "don't mess with me" and the gun in her hand says "oh, and prepare to be messed with."

Your opponent attacks ... She lobs a jar at you, but you catch it and lob it back. This continues for a couple of rounds until she gives up and puts the jar away again.

Your opponent attacks ... Her needle gun jams. While she's trying to get it unstuck, it catches on a piece of her outfit and rips it, so then she has to take a needle from the gun to patch the rip back up.

You gain 76-98 chips.

You gain 95 experience.

Brutish man

2007-12-23T14:17:33Z

Jade:

[[Image:muscular.jpg]]

You are fighting a brutish man.

"Hulking" doesn't begin to describe this figure. He's got muscles you've never heard of that are larger than your biceps. His weapon looks like it used to be a street lamp, or maybe a telephone pole.

Your opponent attacks ... The brute approaches you with his weapon pulled back, but you taunt him with "Swing batter, batter swing!" and throw his timing off. His attack whooshes harmlessly in front of you.

Your opponent attacks ... The muscular figure tries to grab you, but his bulky muscles prevent him from pulling his arms together enough. You slip through as he struggles against himself.

You gain 90-120 chips.

You gain 103 experience.

The Only Way to Win Is Not to Play

You see a sinister figure lurking on a nearby rooftop. With a battlecry for justice you leap after the figure, which quickly turns and runs. After a minute of pursuit, the figure ducks around a corner and you hear numerous voices shouting. Knowing better at this point, instead of stopping you speed on by the well-meaning heroes who never seem to get anything done. You hear them shouting as you leave them in your dust, but you're fixed on your target. In less than a minute you run him down and drag him off to the police station.

You gain 96-105 XP.

'''[[Gotta Move Quick]]'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-front.jpg|right]]You're crossing what used to be a deserted street, until a taxi comes careening around a corner at twice the speed it ought to be driving, hits a pothole, and veers to the side just enough that it's speeding directly at you. You've gotta move! Now!<br>
*Dive left<br>
*Dive right<br>
*Jump straight into the air<br>

<br clear="all">

'''Dive Left'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-rear.jpg|right]]
You dive left, barely evading the taxi and rolling onto the sidewalk. You roll back into a standing position, look yourself over, and realize that you're completely unharmed. It's actually a pretty smooth move, once you calm down enough to think about it, and you spend a few minutes practicing some other tumbles.

'''You gain 50-60 XP'''<br clear="all">
----

'''Dance to the Right'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-rear.jpg|right]]
Instinctively you leap to the right. The taxi whizzes by just inches from you, but you're okay. Off balance, you have to take several long strides before you can re-orient yourself and come to a stop. On the ground in front of you is an abandoned backpack. You pick it up and look inside, hoping to find a name or address to be able to return it, but there aren't any identifying marks. Figuring it's just going to disappear if you leave it hear, you take the pack with you.

'''You got an item: [[backpack]]'''<br clear="all">

'''It's the Only Game in Town'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-rear.jpg|right]]
''Without [[High-jump boots]]:''<br>
You try to jump over the cab, figuring that's the cool way for a superhero to handle the situation. Unfortunately your jump isn't quite powerful enough, and the "Egnaro Cab" sign just barely clips your right foot as it zips underneath. The contact sends you flying, skidding and scraping across rough asphalt, scattered debris, and broken glass.
<br>
You figure to pull a move like that off, you'd need some better jumping power. Practice might do it eventually, but if you had some springy boots or something like that, it could help.

You lose '''15-18''' HP.

<br>
[[Image:sparxx.jpg|right]]
''Wearing [[High-jump boots]]:''<br>
You make a mighty leap, sailing up, up, way up, over the rebel taxi and deep into the night sky. Surprised at the height of the leap, you land off balance and have to scrabble on a slightly slanted roof to keep from falling back to the ground far below.

When you finally right yourself and take a moment to look around, you're surprised to see other silhouetted figures running, jumping, and tumbling across the irregular sea of rooftops. Points of conflict are illuminated by bright sparks, eerie glows, and small explosions, as the figures play what looks almost like some deadly game of tag.

As you watch, a young woman who would look fairly normal if not for the fact that her hair was made of fire, drops from out of nowhere and lands gracefully not too far from where you stand. You tense, but she smiles and nods in greeting, saying "Heya, fellow hero! How's it goin'?"

You stammer for a moment before managing to ask, "What's going on?"

She looks at you for a second and then says, "Ah, you must be new. This is where most of the action is. The bad guys are always running around downtown, trying to pull off some scheme or another. And us good guys are trying to stop them. For the most part we try to keep it off the streets. Not sure why, it's just more fun up here." You nod, seeing how that might make sense. Kind of.

"Anyway," she says, "I'm Catherine Sparsisky. My friends call me Sparxx." You introduce yourself and chat for another few moments, until another woman in strangely sparkling armor dashes by. Sparxx says, "Oops, gotta go! I've got a score to settle with that alchemist." In a flash of fire and ice she's gone, leaving only a small puddle of water behind where she stood.

You look around again, soaking in the scene. Heroes and villains, fighting on the rooftops over downtown. Heroes you never even knew existed. And far more villains than you'd ever suspected. As you watch, some muscular brute and a naturalist (if the companion wolf is any indication) lock arms and grapple, while above them a levitating psion and a someone in a lab coat hurl bolts of mental energy at each other. Off in the distance you see a woman throw an electrified net over a diving shadowy figure, and to the side you can see first a burst of flame from an elemental hero, and then a flash of glittering dust that seems to extinguish the fires almost immediately.

Yeah, you think, I could get used to this place.

'''infernium slab'''

This is a slab of perpetually hot metal. If you cut it up, you could make the world's most reliable coffee warming plate. It would be an eeeeevil coffee warming plate, though. Yeah, you're right, people would still buy it.

{{underconstruction|comment= needs image}}

These black sneakers go above and beyond regular "sneaky" levels and deep into the realm of the really, really sneaky. They say in space no-one can hear you scream, but with these shoes no-one can hear you walk, either. If you were, like, on a spaceship or something where they could actually hear you walk in the first place.

'''Boots'''<br>
'''Power: 9'''<br>
'''Level Required: 8'''<br>

Increased chance of noncombat adventures (to be implemented soon).

Gotta Move Quick

{{underconstruction|comment=templates}}
'''[[Gotta Move Quick]]'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-front.jpg|right]]You're crossing what used to be a deserted street, until a taxi comes careening around a corner at twice the speed it ought to be driving, hits a pothole, and veers to the side just enough that it's speeding directly at you. You've gotta move! Now!<br>
*Dive left<br>
*Dive right<br>
*Jump straight into the air<br>
Think Fast!
<br clear="all">
==Results==

'''Dive Left'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-rear.jpg|right]]
You dive left, barely evading the taxi and rolling onto the sidewalk. You roll back into a standing position, look yourself over, and realize that you're completely unharmed. It's actually a pretty smooth move, once you calm down enough to think about it, and you spend a few minutes practicing some other tumbles.

'''You gain 50 XP'''<br clear="all">
----

'''Dance to the Right'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-rear.jpg|right]]
Instinctively you leap to the right. The taxi whizzes by just inches from you, but you're okay. Off balance, you have to take several long strides before you can re-orient yourself and come to a stop. On the ground in front of you is an abandoned backpack. You pick it up and look inside, hoping to find a name or address to be able to return it, but there aren't any identifying marks. Figuring it's just going to disappear if you leave it hear, you take the pack with you.

'''You got an item: [[backpack]]'''<br clear="all">

----
'''It's the Only Game in Town'''<br>
[[Image:taxi-rear.jpg|right]]
You try to jump over the cab, figuring that's the cool way for a superhero to handle the situation. Unfortunately your jump isn't quite powerful enough, and the "Egnaro Cab" sign just barely clips your right foot as it zips underneath. The contact sends you flying, skidding and scraping across rough asphalt, scattered debris, and broken glass.
<br>
You figure to pull a move like that off, you'd need some better jumping power. Practice might do it eventually, but if you had some springy boots or something like that, it could help.

You lose ??'''15-18'''?? HP.

=Drop Locations=
Found randomly when using a [[Backpack]].

=When Used=

You activate the medkit. In an electronic voice it murmurs, "This won't hurt a bit" before riddling you with painful shots. Most of them numb you, and the last shot provides an amnesiac effect. Ahh, you do feel better. That really didn't hurt at all! You gain '''?-32-33''' HP.
