==Better the longer it is in the family==
Anyone knows what the deal is with that? Is it going to change its written stats or silently get better? is it counting retcons or IRL time? --[[User:Taltamir|Taltamir]] ([[User talk:Taltamir|talk]]) 20:37, 4 August 2018 (PDT)

All the "better the longer it's in the family" items count the number of heirloom retcons you've done with that item, increasing their stats up to a maximum. If they're not increasing for some reason (or it's just not displayed), let me know! --[[User:Kinak|Kinak]] ([[User talk:Kinak|talk]]) 10:59, 9 August 2018 (PDT)

I'm not 100% certain how I'm going to document this, but if you encounter her again after saying yes the first time:

Ivanna Gnøe, the beat reporter, hails you from down the block. She says the articles are going well, and wonders if you'll answer a few more questions for future pieces.

Give a couple of quick quotes for the articles

Say you're tired of the limelight

Remember My Name - Fame!

You rattle off a couple of quick sound bytes for the future articles, and go on your way. The feeling of recognition for your hard work is nice, and lightens your step.

or

I Must Remain in the Shadows

You say that as much as you appreciate Ivanna's past articles, you're actually finding it a little inconvenient to have random supervillains trying to jump you every night. You'd rather slip back into obscurity for a while and pick your own fights. Ivanna seems disappointed, but she says she understands and promises to cover some other heroes for a while.

He was, however, insanely durable, an ability he attributed to his superior intellect which allowed him to predict the actions villains would take and then move to counter them before they acted. It was all very complicated.

This is the hideous circlet he would wear. He thought it looked great, but everyone else would snicker behind his back. Just... just hook it on your belt like a talisman and you'll be fine.

A prismatic talisman. Observed effects (didn't record the messages: 
jade = imagination for whole combat (like the Jade Torch nova ability) 
infernium = extra hot damage, perhaps equal to part of normal damage (any damage resistance would be first applied to the normal damage, and then again to the hot damage) - sort of like Aqua Boy's Call, but hot? 
constantinopole = each round of combat takes extra 5 seconds, gain extra XP at the end of combat (extra xp doesn't depend on how many rounds the combat was, so don't waste time) 
diamond = do less damage, get a little extra XP at the end of combat (way less than constantinopole) 
crude/oil/tea = ???

gold = extra chips at end of combat

At the beginning of the fight if you already have the effect:

70 min - A chill begins to set in for 13 (ice) damage. 
76 min - A chill begins to set in for 15 (ice) damage. 
82.75 min - A chill begins to set in for 18 (ice) damage.

Indeed, after some testing I tracked these:

*when crossing the 22400 damage

A titanic chunk breaks off the iceberg, sending it splashing into Twilight's harbor... and freezing water splashing back on to you.

You gain an effect: Frostbitten, Twice Shy (Added for 0 minutes.)

The iceberg looks a little smaller than when it drifted into the harbor.

*when crossing 44800 damage

A titanic chunk breaks off the iceberg, sending it splashing into Twilight's harbor... and freezing water splashing back on to you.

You gain an effect: Frostbitten, Twice Shy (Added for 0 minutes.)

The iceberg looks smaller than when it first drifted into the harbor.

*when crossing 67200 damage

A titanic chunk breaks off the iceberg, sending it splashing into Twilight's harbor... and freezing water splashing back on to you.

You gain an effect: Frostbitten, Twice Shy (Added for 0 minutes.)

The iceberg is definitely smaller than when it first drifted into the harbor.

*when crossing 89600 damage

A titanic chunk breaks off the iceberg, sending it splashing into Twilight's harbor... and freezing water splashing back on to you.

You gain an effect: Frostbitten, Twice Shy (Added for 0 minutes.)

The iceberg is far smaller than when it first drifted into the harbor.

*when reaching 112238

You gain an effect: Frostbitten, Twice Shy (Added for 0 minutes.)

The iceberg has gotten far smaller. It's definitely on its last legs... or whatever.

Iceberg Nine crumbles into the waters. Its fragments spread thoughout the harbor, bobbing up and down on the chill water.

You take a well-deserved moment to pat yourself on the back, but there's still work to be done.

*A couple notes:
:1st, max hp is either 112000 or 112500 and I missed some damage, easy to lost track with such big numbers. Should be easy to determine by exactly calculating the 1st threshold;
:2nd, this is the optimal way of creating iceberg fives, since it doesn't add debuff time. Highly recommended if you can endure such a long fight. [[User:Patojonas|Patojonas]] 18:47, 12 December 2013 (PST)

Kinak:

Ok, I got this, not when reaching level 10 (already had the pops consumed) but after buffing for the Mick. here's the list of what I had, something must have caused it:

*Deleted list, [[bottle of pills]] buffs and having at least 1 halloween candy consumed did the trick, unknown if the halloween candy is needed at all.

[[User:Patojonas|Patojonas]] 15:53, 4 November 2013 (PST)

If that's what it's requiring, that was a bug and should be fixed now. --[[User:Kinak|Kinak]] ([[User talk:Kinak|talk]])

As listed, the badge makes no sense. That combination doesn't seem to mean anything. Having it be all four candies makes more sense than "everything from the pill bottle plus this one candy". [[User:Cristiona|Cristiona]] ([[User talk:Cristiona|talk]]) 21:34, 4 November 2013 (PST)

That didn't make sense to me either. I got the badge with all four trick-or-treat candy effects, which is more consistent with the trainer text. I'm going to say that's the trigger. [[User:Sanjuro|Sanjuro]] ([[User talk:Sanjuro|talk]]) 22:36, 4 November 2013 (PST)
:It might make no sense, but that's how I got it to trigger in my alts, without any halloween candy effect active and accounts that only ate 1 of the 4. Also, my main only ate 1 electro-pops and with the bottle of pills effects listed qualified for the badge. Maybe it was an alternative trigger? [[User:Patojonas|Patojonas]] 05:03, 5 November 2013 (PST)
Maybe the effects don't have to be active, and simply consuming the candies is enough to qualify for the badge. Could you please check the sugar consumption lists for those multis? [[User:Sanjuro|Sanjuro]] ([[User talk:Sanjuro|talk]]) 13:12, 5 November 2013 (PST)
: As I said, none of my alts consumed all 4 and they all got the badge with the [[bottle of pills]] buffs and at least 1 of the candies in the sugar history. What if the bottle of pills buffs were coded to give a chance to those who missed the event? They may not make you spit lightning, but consuming so many pills has got to be at least bad for the stomach. One easy way to check is to have someone not consume any of the 2013 halloween candy and have those effects on to see if they can get it. My alts can't test for this since they all already have the badge. [[User:Patojonas|Patojonas]] 04:11, 6 November 2013 (PST)

Kinak:

5 slime's snuggie = 1 bezoar

4 unspeakable cloche = 1 bezoar

bezoar can be catalyzed into bezoar juice

2-3 cardinal's rulers also yields a golden fleece

sugar = mint goat milk

caffeine = goat latte

I don't think it's necessarily villainous combat items that trigger marbles. Besides the cashmere, 81 wraps of bubble yielded 2 goat's eye marbles, and 80 boxes of combat paperclips yielded 60 marbles. [[User:Sanjuro|Sanjuro]] ([[User talk:Sanjuro|talk]]) 21:58, 1 July 2013 (PDT)
I forgot to write down what I fed to the goats and the results, but here's what I remember. The first thing I did was feed the goats some alluring business suits. I got some bezoars in addition to the cashmere. A few items later, the description of the goats changed to "They look jittery and inexplicably still hungry". Other descriptions I've seen are "They look sacchrine[sic] and inexplicably still hungry." and "They look angry and inexplicably still hungry." It looks like the first few extra items for the day are bezoars, regardless of the goats' diet. After the bezoars are issued, feeding the goats equipment yields goat horns, and feeding them combat usable items yields marbles. Also, I noticed the same thing as the poster above, about caffeine and sugar. [[User:Sanjuro|Sanjuro]] ([[User talk:Sanjuro|talk]]) 02:03, 2 July 2013 (PDT)

Leon Idas

|desc=The service tunnel takes you to another major hallway. Just as promised, you're now on the other side of the conference room, strategically placed ''behind'' the phalanx of office hoplites. Only the leader, positioned at the back, notices you and steps out of formation. 
or, if you have enough Madness? : 
The angry bearded men stare dumbfounded as you approach, looking to their leader for guidance. They look at him, then look at you, then back to him, then back to you... seemingly disappointed that he's not you, they part to let you face Leon hero-a-mano.

|postfight=You stand triumphant over the fallen Leon Idas. He gasps for a bit, apparently beaten, and then pulls a surprise maneuver! Before you can react he hurls an uncapped whiteboard marker right at your face! Too stunned to move, you watch helplessly as the marker sails right at your face. The very tip ticks against your cheek, leaving a faint wet stain of red erasable ink, before sailing past. Phew, that was close!

Not taking any more chances, you riddle Leon's body with arrows.

Okay, that's what you'd like to do, but it's not really your style. Instead you grab the office key from where it's dangling on a chain around his neck, neatly skip back out into the hallway, shut the conference room door, and lock it tight. Two-hundred and ninety-two Conference Room Spartans howl in rage, but you just smile, give a little wave through the window, and proceed down the hallway. 
or, if you had enough Madness?, the last paragraph is:

Skills (manual)

2012-02-25T16:13:54Z

Kinak: Manual just didn't match the code.

{{Game Manual}}
===Skills===
Heroes start out with at least one skill, and gain more as they advance in levels. Skills come in different types: passive, combat, noncombat, and buff.

[[:Category:Passive_Skill|'''Passive skills''']] are always active—you don't have to do anything, and you continually gain the benefit.

[[:Category:Combat_Skill|'''Combat skills''']] can only be used in combat, and generally help heroes inflict damage, hinder their opponent, or something similar. They require power points (PP) to use.

[[:Category:Noncombat_Skill|'''Noncombat skills''']] can be used only when you're not in combat. They can do any number of things, such as heal your hero or temporarily improve one of your abilities. They require power points (PP) to use.

[[:Category:Buff|'''Buffs''']] are also noncombat spells, but they can be cast on other players as well as yourself. They require power points (PP) to use.

'''Unimplemented Skills'''. Because the game is in early beta testing, there are a number of skills that still haven't been added to the game. There are some gaps in the skill tree which will eventually be filled in but for the moment are empty. Also, after level 16 there are no more level-based skills.

===Skill Points===
Skill points let players improve skills. Each skill starts at 0 and can have up to 10 skill points invested in it. Players earn skill points when they level up, and may obtain skill points by other methods.

(Not implemented yet ...) For buffs, only the skill points of the buff TARGET count. That is, if a player with 10 points invested in a buff casts it on you and you don't know the skill at all or don't have skill points invested, you will receive the skill at the base effectiveness. In other words, skill points represent the player's mastery of the skill -- no points, no mastery. On the reverse, if a player with 0 skill points casts a buff on you and you have 5 points invested, you receive the buff at the 5-point level. In this case, it doesn't matter how inexperienced the other player is, your mastery still carries through.

===Skills by Class===
Each class skill is listed below, along with its effect. (A few are in flux right now. Buffs don't register skill points at all yet.) Equations are given to explain how invested skill points will affect the ability. Equations have an X to denote a multiple of the number of current skill points invested. They also list a Max: line just to simplify what the value of a maxed-out skill would look like.

Damage spells with caps can have "hard caps" (absolute limit) or "soft caps" (point at which damage becomes lessened by some factor).

Currently it's impossible to achieve more than -4PP on non-combat skills, so it's undetermined whether same limit applies to them.--[[User:Shikao|Shikao]] 07:35, 9 January 2011 (PST)

==Combat spells==
This is kind of ambiguous. Even the game says "to the cost of combat spells", but spells usually refer to elemental/psion combat skills, and the reductions apply to all combat skills (even naturalist, gadgeteer and unclassed), right? I am currently not in a position to verify conclusively (out of turns), but pretty sure that jill's gloves reduce cost of shock grenade, and aura:mystery of animal kung-foolery. This might bear a mention. --[[User:XKiv|XKiv]] 10:14, 1 January 2012 (PST)
:I believe the terms "[[skills|skill]]" and "spell" are interchangeable in this game.  [[User:Richardhg|Richard H-G]] 03:30, 4 January 2012 (PST) 
::Not so. [[Bonus spell damage]] only applies to Elem/Psion skills, not to Gadget/Nat skills. Using [[Shock Grenade]] at 10 skill points, my Gadget (level 70) should do {{col|sonic|70-80 damage}}. 78 and 71 were observed on [[Lady Macbeth]]. With a [[Mirror of Nitocris]] equipped (+50% spell damage), Lady Macbeth took 78 and 73 -- in the same range. Oh, and also, it only cost 8 PP. Nat skills should decrease in cost as well. As posted in the section [[#Reduction limit|above]], I have tested it, although for a different purpose (testing the cap back then), and it was a year ago. (Not sure about [[Animal Kung-Foolery]], as it didn't exist back then.) --[[User:Hoyifung04|hoyifung04]] 12:04, 5 January 2012 (PST)
:: So .. you are confirming that "reduces cost of combat spells" reduces cost of all combat skills, even those that are not spells? (The section above discusses difference between combat and noncombat skills, which is a different difference) --[[User:XKiv|XKiv]] 12:18, 6 January 2012 (PST)
:::Basically, yes, but I haven't/can't check Animal Kung-Foolery, as I don't have it. --[[User:Hoyifung04|hoyifung04]] 14:45, 7 January 2012 (PST)

These are now displaying as "Combat Skill" to prevent this confusion. It's intentional they work with all skills, not just spells. --[[User:Kinak|Kinak]] 19:52, 7 January 2012 (PST)

I try to watch the wiki for bugs, but the surest way to get a direct response is the "bug report" feature in game.

Talk:Death Blossom

2011-12-27T16:03:27Z

Kinak:

There appears to be a residual effect: I've twice now received "Combat!" result messages that start with: "You attack ... Your weapon still hums with the residual power of the Death Blossom..." and dealing critical damage.  [[User:Richardhg|Richard H-G]] 17:06, 26 December 2011 (PST) 
 Interesting; [[Nova Recovery]] has run out and I'm still getting the residual Death Blossom messages...[[User:Richardhg|Richard H-G]] 17:11, 26 December 2011 (PST) 
*This was a bug and should be fixed. [[User:Cristiona|Cristiona]] 07:01, 27 December 2011 (PST)

==Before Supplying Globules==

OmegaTron greets you as you approach the Wade-bot base.

"Hello, hero. I was wondering if you might be willing to help us out? We're running badly short on enerbun, and it's limiting our ability to end this battle and get out of your way again. If you could see your way to finding us some enerbun, we'd gladly reward you for your efforts."

"How much do you need?" you ask.

''Before fulfilling any opponent base request:''

OmegaTron says, "Quite a bit. You may not be aware, but to properly prepare the enerbun we need to make perfect spheres of it, which are created by squeezing three of the globules together. Right now we need around 24 globules to be competitive, I think."

''After fulfilling one opponent base request:''

OmegaTron says, "Quite a bit. You may not be aware, but to properly prepare the enerbun we need to make perfect spheres of it, which are created by squeezing three of the globules together. The battle isn't going well, and our reserves have become depleted while you were doing other things. We need 42 globules now to be competitive."

''After fulfilling two opponent base requests:''

OmegaTron says, "Quite a bit. You may not be aware, but to properly prepare the enerbun we need to make perfect spheres of it, which are created by squeezing three of the globules together. The battle goes very badly, and we've hit critical lows on enerbun while you were doing other things. We'd need at least 60 globules to become competitive."

'''You currently have Y globules.'''

''If you have enough globules:''

{{button|Turn in the globules for the reward}}

OmegaTron takes the enerbun from you. "Thanks, hero. This will really help. Here's a little something for your time."

You got an item: [[EMP device]] [[image:Emp-device.gif]]

"Come back again with more enerbun, and we'll be happy to trade you for some of our technology."

==After Supplying Globules==

OmegaTron greets you and offers to trade you useful items if you provide the materials and some extra enerbun. You currently have:

Trouble in the Galleria

2011-11-20T03:31:15Z

Kinak: Was taken care of.

Back to [[Quests]]
==Walkthrough==
0. ''The quest starts under the name '''Can't Put a Price on Heroism'''. You get the following journal message:''

You may want to do a little more exploring, to get to know more of your neighborhood. Maybe checking out the shops in the Galleria would be a good way to start to feel your way around more locations?

1. ''Visiting [[The Galleria shops]] for the first time, you get the following:''

You take a stroll through the galleria shops down at the corner. It's late and most of them are closed, but a few, like a music store and bookstore, are still doing active business. Frankly you're surprised that this area is so quiet and peaceful. There aren't many places in the city like this.

On a whim you pop into one of the shops at random and poke around a little. Even crimefighters need a little breather now and then, right? You say hi to the shop owner and he returns your greeting. Just making conversation, you comment on the pleasant, peaceful nature of this little corner of the neighborhood. Strangely, the shopkeeper turns pale and starts stammering, "Wha-what do you mean? I don't know what you're talking about."

Weird. "I was just thinking you guys must do a really good job with security around here, to have all these shops open this late and not locked down like a fort. It's nice."

The owner continues to stammer awkwardly, and then squints his eyes at you. "Are-are you the new collector?" he asks.

"Huh? No. I mean, I don't know what you're asking. What kind of collector?"

The guy clams up, fast. "Oh, nothing. Nevermind." He refuses to say more about it, and eventually you leave. Something's very fishy, though.

''This will yield change the quest name to '''Trouble in the Galleria''' and add the following message to your journal:''

There's something fishy going on in the Galleria shops--it's weirdly quiet and the shop owners seem timid. Besides the stores, the only other night life in that area is at the Cannonball Tavern. Maybe you can pick up some clues there?

''Or, if you are still level 1:''

There's something fishy going on in the Galleria shops--it's weirdly quiet and the shop owners seem timid. Besides the stores, the only other night life in that area is at the Cannonball Tavern. Maybe you can pick up some clues there? ''Be careful, though. The roughs that hang out in that bar might be tougher than you are.''

2. ''Patrol the [[Cannonball Tavern]] until you get [[To the Rescue]], and the following message to your journal:''

After rescuing Melody you're now very certain that something sinister is going on around the Galleria shops. If what she says is true, the guy who owns Jax 'Za pizza parlor might be responsible. You'll need more information, either from the pizza place or from the Galleria.

3. ''Visit [[The Galleria shops]] again to get:''

You step into the galleria bookstore and browse for a bit. There's a visiting author reading excerpts from a children's book called Pickle and Onion and kids are running everywhere. On your way out one of the employees pulls you aside to an isolated corner. In a hushed voice he says, "Hey, I'm Bob, the store owner. I heard about how you rescued Melody from Jack's goons. A lot of people are afraid that might make things worse, but I think we've needed someone like you for a long time."

"What can you tell me?" you ask.

"Unfortunately, not a whole lot. The thugs do most of the dirty work, but it's common knowledge that the guy who owns the pizza place is ultimately in charge."

"You mean Jack?" you ask.

He nods. "Yeah. Jack. Big J, some people call him. I think those are just nicknames, though. I've never met the guy, but the neighborhood business association has him listed as John Steele."

"What else?"

Bob spreads his hands. "That's about it. You're going to have to find out the rest on your own. Come back if you learn anything else. I'll help if I can, but I'm no hero; I've got a wife and kids, and a good business."

You nod in understanding and head back out to the street.

''This will give the following message to your journal:''

Melody and Bob have confirmed that the owner of the pizza place, John Steele, more commonly known as Big J. or Jack, seems to be responsible for neighborhood extortion. It's up to you to track down more evidence. Besides the stores, the only other night life in that area is at the Cannonball Tavern. Maybe you can pick up some more clues there?

4.''At this point you can go directly to step 6, or do the following non-mandatory steps to ease advancement: Patrol the [[Cannonball Tavern]] again until you get [[A Noggin Scratcher]], which provides the [[steel knuckles]], and puts the following message in your journal:''

You've seen enough to feel confident that the owner of the pizza place, John Steele, more commonly known as Big J. or Jack, is responsible for some sort of neighborhood extortion. Now you just need to find a way to get to him and teach him a lesson. Maybe one of the locals can help?

5. ''visit [[The Galleria shops]] again to get:''

You visit the bookstore and have another chat with the owner. Bob says, "I've been thinking about Jack, and I've got an idea. Jack's never around during the day, and his goons won't let you in with a weapon at night. But I bet I could sneak a small weapon into the bathroom of the restaurant during the day. Something small and completely waterproof. I could hide it in the toilet reservoir. If you can get past the guards, you could go into the bathroom and pick up the weapon."

The bookstore owner looks over your collection of weapons. "Hmm," he says, fingering the steel knuckles, "I think these might work. I'll sneak them over as soon as I can." He takes your steel knuckles and tucks them in a pocket as you head back out into the street.

''This will change the journal message to:''

You've seen enough to feel confident that the owner of the pizza place, John Steele, more commonly known as Big J. or Jack, is responsible for some sort of neighborhood extortion, and it's time to teach him a lesson. Bob already took the steel knuckles from you and hid them in the pizza parlor bathroom. All you have to do is get in there after the shop is closed for the night.

6. ''After 11:05, un-equip your weapon, go to [[Jax 'Za]] and enter <code>John Steele</code> in the box. You can then either "Visit the Bathroom" first, and then "Go to the Office", which yields [[very dazed John Steele]] or go directly to office which yields the much tougher [[Big Bad John Steele]]. Defeat him to get the following message in your journal:''

You have had your showdown with John Steele and taught him a lesson. The Galleria shops ought to be free from his meddling now. You probably ought to let Rand know what you've been up to, and see if he can have Steele arrested.

'Or, if you haven't finished the [[Like a Super Neighbor]] quest yet:''

You have had your showdown with John Steele and taught him a lesson. The Galleria shops ought to be free from his meddling now. If you ever make friends with anyone in the police department, it might be a good topic of conversation. In the meantime, maybe you ought to follow up on your hunches in the Like a Super Neighbor entry above. Hint, hint.

7. ''Visit the [[Twilight Police Department (Somerset)|Twilight Police Department]] to conclude the quest and talk to Rand:''

You catch Rand at the office and fill him in on your exploits regarding John Steele and the Galleria shops. He congratulates you on your good work but doesn't seem nearly as excited about the experience as you are. When you ask if he can arrest Steele, Rand just shakes his head. "Fraid not, kid. I'm glad you showed him up, but you don't have anything you can use as legal evidence. I'm sure he was guilty, but in a legal sense you don't have any reliable proof. In fact, if he wanted to, he could probably sue you for assault, and you'd be the bad guy in the case."

"Really?" you ask. "I hadn't even thought about that."

Rand nods. "Yeah, you've got to be careful, or you're going to end up making as many enemies with the law enforcers as with the criminals."

You say, "But at least that neighborhood is safe now, right?"

Rand snorts, and starts to laugh, until he realizes you were being serious. "For a few days, maybe. But Steele's just a small fry. Some guy running extortion in a few blocks of a small neighborhood? He may have been pretty efficient at keeping things quiet, but there isn't a fraction of a chance that he could have held the neighborhood if someone above him hadn't let him keep the territory. There's a crime syndicate that controls most of the city. Steele isn't even a bit player in that organization. He's a flea that lives on a rat that eats the crumbs that the syndicate drops now and then. There's a dozen parasites just like him living on your city block, waiting to take his place."

"Huh. Wow. I hadn't even thought about that. So the whole thing was basically pointless?"

"Aww, don't be too hard on yourself, kid. You did a good thing. A bunch of people are better off than they used to be. That's not a bad start at all."

''The following message is added to the Completed Quests section of your journal:''

You successfully tracked down a local criminal, John Steele, and taught him a lesson. The good news is that neighborhood is free of him. The bad news is you've come to realize he was just one extremely small extension of an extremely large crime syndicate.

The Elsie C. Attus and Lilly C. Anine Memorial Hospital Emergency Room

Kinak: Fixed.

The Elsie C. Attus and Lilly C. Anine Memorial Hospital Emergency Room (aka The Twilight Hospital) is located in [[University Heights]].

* ''If you enter the hospital with less than your maximum number of hit points:''

The emergency room attendant looks you over and says, "You're not looking too good there, pal. I can get a doctor to patch you up, but it's probably going to cost you around X chips for the time and equipment."

''If you choose to pay:''

The doc patches you up until you're as good as new.

*''If you enter the hospital with your maximum number of hit points:''

The emergency room attendant on duty looks you over and asks, "Can I help you with anything?"

You think about it for a second and then shrug. "No, not really. I guess I'm okay," you say. The attendant shakes his head and goes back to reading a magazine, muttering something under his breath that even with your super hearing you can't quite pick out.

==Notes==
* It costs 7 chips for each hit point you want to restore.
* It costs 20 chips to remove [[Needs Stitches]].
* It costs 20 chips to remove [[Internal Injuries]].
* The effect [[Concussed]] cannot be removed here.

The Enlightenment Center is located out in [[Out in the Desert|the Desert]].

*''If you enter the Enlightenment Center with less than your maximum number of Power Points, you will get the following message:''
A woman in white robes greets you at the front door and smiles broadly. She says, "Hmm. Your chakras are all out of alignment and your aura is taking on an unhealthy tint of ochre. You definitely need some spiritual tuning. It'll cost you X chips for the guidance, though."

''If you choose to pay for the services, you get the following message:''

You spend some time trying to get magnets to stick to crystals and then tackle the arduous task of licking your way to the center of a Tootsie pop without biting even once (you lose count a couple of times, though). By the time you're done you feel inexplicably--but completely--recharged.

*''If you enter the Enlightenment Center with your maximum number of Power Points, then you will receive the following message:''
A woman in white robes greets you at the front door and smiles while squinting at the space a few feet to the left of your head, and says, "I haven't seen an aura with that healthy a tint of yellow-brown in years. Clearly you're highly spiritually attuned right now." She nods to herself in satisfaction and walks away, leaving you alone in the lobby.

It costs 12 chips for each Power Point you restore.

Space Station Sickbay

Kinak: Resolved

The Sickbay is located in [[The Space Station]].

*''If you enter the sickbay with less than your maximum number of hit points, you will get the following message:''

The sickbay doctor checks you out by waving a small humming wand over your kneecap for a few seconds. She says, "You appear to be in need of medical assistance. If you'd like help, you've got two choices. We can have you fill out a worker's comp form and we ought to have clearance in a few weeks to fix you up for free." The doc waves at a clipboard piled about three inches high with papers, sees your frown, and continues. "Or you can just give me the chips for the medical supplies and I can take care of you now. I'm guessing it would take about X chips for all the supplies you'd need."

''If you choose to pay up:''

The sickbay doc patches you up until you're as good as new.

*''If you enter the sickbay with your maximum number of hit points, then you will get the following message:''

The sickbay holds a strange humming wand next to your ear for a moment and then looks up in surprise. "You don't seem to be hurt," she says. "We can't have any slackers here. Get back to work!" She pushes you back out the door and leaves you standing in the hallway.
==Notes==
* It costs 4 chips for each hit point you want to restore.

Running Away

2011-11-20T03:03:06Z

Kinak: Fixed that up.

{{needsspading|comment=What are the success mechanics?}}

At each combat turn you can try to run away.

* ''If you succeed the result is one of the following:''

<big>'''I'm Outta Here'''</big>

Recognizing when you're overmatched is an important skill for every hero to have. You exercise the option to return and fight another day.

<big>'''A Narrow Escape'''</big>

You try to escape but your foe has you trapped in a corner. Undaunted you whip out your trusty electronic grappling hook and use it to lift yourself to safety. Thumbing your nose at your opponent on the way up is just the icing on the cake.

<big>'''Turbo-Powered Evasion'''</big>

You turn and use your heroic speed to bravely run away, away. Your opponent tries to hit you one last time before you disappear, but you jam down on the launch button of your jet-powered backpack. The burst only lasts for a couple of seconds, but it's enough to give you the clearance you need.

* ''If you fail:''

<big>'''Blocked!'''</big>

You try to run away but your foe keeps you from escaping.

* ''or you can suffer a parting shot:''

<big>'''A Parting Shot'''</big>

You turn and run as fast as your heroic little legs can carry you. Your opponent can't keep up but gets off one last parting shot.

: ''If the foe hits:''

<It> hits you for {{col|physical|X damage}}. It hurts but you escape.

: ''If the foe misses:''

<It> attacks, but misses. You do your best Houdini impression and disappear.

==Notes==
* A Parting Shot can also end in a foe fumble, and even foe defeat due to a fumble.
* [[Gadgeteer]]s have an increased chance of running away.

''Before fulfilling any opponent base request:''

You approach the Row-bot base and quickly find Alpha Prime. It's hard to hide a ship that size.

"Hello, human. We don't really need your assistance, but I would be willing to negotiate an exchange of services if you could locate some [[superconductor chip]]s for us. I believe that 11 chips is a worthwhile goal."

Alpha Prime takes the superconductors. "You have my thanks, human. Allow me to demonstrate my gratitude, with this reward."

You got an item: [[plastiscanner]] [[image:plastiscanner.gif]]

"If you locate more of these superconductors, we will provide a re-energizing service as reciprocation."

==After Supplying Superconductor Chips==

Alpha Prime greets you and introduces you to his medical officer, Cratchet. Cratchet says, "I think I've properly determined many of the key values involved in human healing and restoration. I've got a couple of things that might help you: either a restorative treatment here at the base, or an insta-restore capsule that you can use for quick healing while in a fight. I'd be happy to trade you either option for a superconductor chip."

Radiation Lab

2011-11-20T02:53:07Z

Kinak: Resolved

''Located at [[The Space Station]]''

As you enter the lab, the radiologist on duty explains that [[Susan Novak]] has left some notes with them, explaining how measured doses of the right kind of modulated radiation would likely prove re-energizing for someone with your types of powers. Sure, the same dose would be dangerous or deadly for a normal human, but that's nothing for you to worry about.

* ''If you enter the Radiation Lab with less than the maximum number of PP, then you will get the following message:''

You say that you're feeling a little drained, and ask what the process would entail.

The radiologist says, "Well, we'd use the window there and use a combination of filters and polarization to dose you with the right types of radiation. There's a small fee for my time and the computing costs, just X chips for the whole package."

''If you choose to pay for the service, you receive the message:''

The radiologist has you stand in front of a shaded window, and then scuttles behind a metal shield. Clicks and whirs come from his direction. Moments later the material in front of the window shimmers and swirls, and you feel yourself bathed in a suffusing warmth. When the window shimmers back into its normal dark tint, you feel fully recharged.

* ''If you enter the Radiation Lab with the maximum amount of PP, you will get the following message:''

You tell the radiologist you're feeling fully energized at the moment anyway, and duck back out.
==Notes==
* It costs 8 chips for each PP point you want to restore.

"Hoo-doggies, it's windy up here!" says a bountifully mustachioed man as you approach. He has to repeatedly grab hold of his oversized Texas-style hat, which the stiff breeze keeps trying to blow off his head. "My name's Quincy P. M. Scoresby, and this here is my airship brigade. I'd be mighty pleased to rent y'all one of my airships for the day, as long as y'all have a pilot's certification."

''Without [[Passable Pilot]]:''

Another gust of wind nearly knocks his hat off yet again as he holds out his hand for your pilot's license. "You got no training? Aww, shucks. I'd love to rent ya one of these here vehicles, but my insurance won't cover untrained pilots. I hear there's a virtual trainin' school downtown where you can pick up some lessons easy if you need to."

''With [[Passable Pilot]]:''

Another gust of wind nearly knocks his hat off yet again as he holds out his hand for your pilot's license. "All right! That certification looks gen-yoo-wine to me! Which one of these puppies would you like to rent?"

'''(Note: all rental items will disappear from your inventory at rollover.)'''

''Trying to rent anything without [[Special abilities#Super Jumping|Super Jumping]] or [[Special abilities#Flying|Flying]] ability:''

That store is way off the ground, and you don't have a way to reach it.

''With a [[Quincy's rental coupon]] in inventory:''

You also mention that you picked up a coupon for Quincy's services. He inspects the coupon and says, "I see you got one of my coupons! We'll take you up in my personal plane and let you jump out! I'll even throw in a free parachute! Yee-haw!"

{{Button|Redeem the Coupon}}

Against your better judgment, you hand over the coupon and accept Quincy's offer. It's not the stupidest thing you've ever done, but it probably ranks right up there.

Soon, you're flying over the middle of the desert, the wind whipping at your face as you look out the open door of the airplane. You try to tell Quincy that you've changed your mind, but he just laughs and claps you on the back. Firmly. So firmly that you're pushed out of the plane.

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

After screaming your head off, you remember that you're going to be the world's flattest hero if you don't use the parachute. After a few tense moments trying to find the ripcord, you give it a firm tug. Luckily, a shower of silverware doesn't fly out.

Soon you notice that you're actually right over the Military Base of the Unborn. What a lucky bit of serendipity! A few minor adjustments to your course, and end up landing on the roof of the base. Good thing, too. It looks like there's a live-fire exercise going on out there.

Using your heroic ingenuity, you turn your parachute into a makeshift rope and climb down from the roof, landing in front of what looks like a loading dock. Well, that's pretty handy. You could just walk right in to the base if you wanted!

* Fisticuffs use the following messages:
==Hit Messages==
* you don't have time for anything fancy, so you just slug them as hard as you can. In this case, that's '''X damage.'''
* you're in really close quarters, so your options are limited. Much to your surprise (and your opponent's), you actually pull off a one inch punch! It may have only been one inch, but it hurt like '''X inches.''' Whatever that means.
* you go all Billy Jack on your opponent by slipping off your boots and showing them some sweet Hapkido moves, beating them down for '''X damage.'''
* in this city, you have access to clubs, sticks, swords, guns, lasers, bows, and all sorts of weapons. Why are you punching? Still... I guess it works. If '''X damage''' is working.
* you duck down and slug them hard in a delicate location and follow up with a sharp kick to the side of their knee. Possibly not the most heroic fighting style, but it gets the point across. '''X points''', specifically.
==Miss Messages==
* you don't have time for anything fancy, but your opponent does. They duck and weave around your sluggish punches, making you feel a little silly.
* you're in close quarters, so you try a one inch punch. Yeah, like you could pull that off. Who do you think you are, anyway?
* you try to go all Billy Jack, but by the time you've slipped off your boots, you opponent has ducked behind some cover. Quit fooling around, you.
* I don't know why you insist on using no weapons. You weakly punch your opponent and deal no damage. What did you expect?
* you try to use the brawling skills you learned one night at a local road house, but you're no cooler.
==Fumble Message==
{{col|physical|Fumble!}} You bob and weave and wind up and slug you opponent hard. This is where we ask who taught you how to make a fist? Specifically, why do you have your thumb on this inside? Well, whatever, you wrenched your thumb something fierce. You didn't quite break it, but you hurt yourself for {{col|physical|X damage.}}
==Critical Hit Message==
you only use your mighty skills for defense, just like Ki-Lo-Knee taught you, but this bozo won't stop, and needs to be taught a lesson. One boot to the head later, your opponent is writhing on the ground, moaning about the '''X-point''' critical "instruction" you just gave them.
==References==
* The second hit and miss messages use the fighting technique {{wikipedia|one inch punch}}.
* The third hit and miss messages refer to the film {{wikipedia|Billy Jack}}. The third hit message also mentions the {{wikipedia|Hapkido}} martial art, which was the style he used.

|returnedreceiver={{buffsquare|'''<sender> has buffed you with [[Holiday Cheer]].''' Oh, cool! You just got a holiday gift! What a thoughtful gesture. It reminds you of that really happy moment from when you were a kid. You remember, right? Yeah. That one. (Added for 60 minutes.)}}
