PREQUEL suggestion box (thread 7)

[expy]

you have clothes they are in your lap.
ok it is actually a blanket but they are PRETTY MUCH the same thing.

[SNeakyRobot]

> Also, add revenge to your quest log. Good old fashioned, down home revenge.

[Steve Potluck]

Oh hey, it's Weedum-ja. Shuffle on over and apologize for making her work twice as hard when she normally would not have to.

[stupidjellyfish]

> Pray to Akatosh. Even if he doesn't respond, just do it anyway. Ask for guidance, hope, or something. Maybe thanks for coming this far while sober.

[Iarei]

Take note of the crudely drawn picture of an adult male duck on the back of that pamphlet. Read pamphlet in it's entirety. Do not take the bag with you if the conditions for accepting. . . Actually, just don't take the bag. Save the note signed by Captain Gaius though. Carefully tear off the section above "it is a cultist". With some creative penmanship you can turn "it" into "SigrId". Essentially you can manufacture a warrant for her arrest. Or someone else's arrest. . . should such a thing come in handy.

[Auwa]

Maybe you ought to help clean up the chapel? You were the one who caused all of this mess after all, so it's the least you can do.

[Dashie]

Check your other eye to see if it's alright yet.
But.
Not.
HERE.
Go to a dark room first, then dark vision.

Also, I think that you deserve to give yourself a high-five. Low-fives are so... anti-climatic :P

[Loather of Irk]

Ask that Argonian about where you can find some clothes. Say nothing about the fire; it's for the best that nobody knows you did it, unless you want to end up in jail (assuming you don't get lynched).

[Fasdaff]

I don't like that "**" in "Free**". Read the pamphlet and see what the Thieves Guild wants from you, or can offer.

[DavidArgall]

Look thru stuff again. That note said he left some food so maybe you have breakfast. Don't get hopes high. It may be that every statement in the note is a lie, which means you should try to figure out its reverse meaning...

[Lightning_Armour]

Given the references to blood, and healthy living, you should safely assume that it was the vampire lady who left you that food. You should search around Kvatch for some dark, remote areas which may hold coffins in order to thank her for her assistance.

Also, you should question that beleaguered looking Argonian who seems to be sweeping up after your firegasm. Maybe she can shed some light on what happened last night.

Finally, regarding Sigrid, if worse comes to worse, you can tell Asotil what happened.

[Saeedtheaceofspades]

Make sure you're not a vampire. That cilantro bit is a tad disturbing.

ALSO

It's been mentioned before but you just invented the scroll bar, and previously something called a Graphic User Interface. Now let's take a step back and create a device that can count, add, subtract, multiply, and divide numbers, and call it a computer. Use magic to do this because it comes more naturally than electricity. Though you should probably learn more about magic first. Then you can develop that invention into a box of limitless possibilities, incorporate the GUI and scroll bar into its design, and make gold from selling it. A LOT of gold mind you. Just don't go telling anybody about it.

[sabata2]

I don't like that "**" in "Free**". Read the pamphlet and see what the Thieves Guild wants from you, or can offer.

It's the Theives Guild. They'll want repayment, likely with interest.
The big question is "Does she have significantly less blood now than when she fell asleep?" Because we might have a vampire problem on our hands, to which being weak due to lack of blood is something we'll have to take the loan on.

Also, IF A VAMPIRE BIT HER, IT WOULDN'T BE NAH.
Nah got her blood dose by licking Katia's wounds. She wouldn't overfeed.

[Pirox]

Read the "Thieves Guild’s pro-beggar stance" pamphlet. You dirty beggar.

[Sherwood McCloud]

But Katia, how exactly are you going to be able to replace that letter and package for Quill-Weave? You probably have no idea what the letter says and what the package contains. Your best bet would be to steal it back from Sigrid.

Better yet, maybe the Thieves Guild could train you to do so before then!

[Tjk]

Okay Katia. It's only been, what, four, five days most? And you've done quite a bit already. Know what I call that? AN ADVENTURE. And right now, you have no choice but to get that package and that letter back. Hopefully your robe, too, it was really nice.

You can get that by rallying up an army of people (ie - all of Kvatch) who don't like this Sigrid person. One powerful mage can't withhold an army. Or you can join the Thieves Guild and learn their ways.

Either way, you need to get this letter back.

[Jeizar]

Before everything, eat something, i'm sure that vampire has taken advantage of the situation to suck your blood, and you will not do something good while you are weakened.
You should offer your help to clean up the chapel, help to repair your mess is a better way to regain your reputation than trying to avoid to face the consequences of your magic issues.
Weedum-ja was very nice to you yesterday, she deserve a little help from you and could forgive you quickly for the damage you did.

[mysticalMechanic]

Might be a good idea to wait for a priest to show up, and explain to him about the dreams. Granted, priests have never actually helped you before, but there's always the first time. Maybe that argonian lady is a priest? Ask her.

Also get some clothes. If you're a dirty beggar now, you could always maybe try to beg some. Make yourself look as miserable as possible, and beg nearby to the mages guild so that Sigrid can see you and maybe feel a tad guilty about what she did (ha-ha, fat chance).

[Sindri]

Locate the adorable totally-not-a-vampire. Offer her a half pint of blood in exchange for new clothing and another if she has a safe place for you to stay for a day or two.

Inquire as to her identity and plans for the near future; if not in contradiction with those plans mention that you would appreciate a travelling companion, and suggest that if she were to assist you in retrieving items stolen by a certain bitchy alchemist you would be willing to let her do the neck-jelly thing as often as she wanted, provided the frequency was kept low enough to not pose a health hazard and measures were taken to avoid significant alteration of your state of being (like vampirism).

Seriously, blood-sucking aside she's the second or third most trustworthy person you've met in this country, she's saved your life at least once already, her perfectly normal human strength ought to make travels safer when the Imperial Guard aren't around, and she has at least a few extremely valuable skills. If it's an option, a little sustainable neck-licking is a small price to pay for a friend like that.
You can't judge a person by their dietary requirements and aversion to sunlight and glowing red eyes any more than they can by your fur. And so far her actions have been pretty awesome.


But anyway, you're waking up dirty and naked after a somewhat embarrassing display the previous night... but this time you know not one but two spells, and you've met several nice people. No matter how many times you get robbed there are two things that can never be stolen from you: knowledge and friendship. Comparing you now to you last time you were in this situation, I think you've made several big steps up. Just keep learning, keep making friends, and stay sober enough to not lose them, and things will turn out better. Maybe not good, but better.
That drunk slut from Hammerfell might have been able to lose everything every night, but Katia Managan will keep building her relationships and her magical abilities until she can manage anything, clothes or no clothes!


edit: Oh, but first, stay in the temple for a while. Like, at least an hour. Talk to the nice argonian, pray, try to clean up, whatever. You have food available, and none of your business in town is urgent enough that it can't happen later today. The voice in your dream told you it would be back; if it was internal then that's too much of a lead on your recent weird shit to pass up just because you were in a hurry, and if it was external you've got a friend who can help.

And be wary of the Thieves Guild! They probably won't mess with you as a beggar and you don't have anything left to steal anyway, but you probably don't have the skills to join, definitely don't want to look like a criminal to your guardsman friend, and probably shouldn't be anywhere near the thieves when you manage to get some new stuff. And yeah, that food bag totally isn't free; if you can't find the exact terms for it anywhere just eat the contents (including some cilantro; it's just common courtesy) and leave it behind.

[TMStage]

Okay, first off Katia, you have a blanket, and you are naked. Engage Toga Mode.
Now then, let's review those documents. A suspicious letter and gifts from someone who totally isn't a vampire. Check your neck for bite marks. If present, consume citrus and cheese.
Now, about your newly-missing items. Yes, you did kinda fuck up and give away everything you own, but lookie here. You have a pamphlet from the Thieves Guild, who are now aware of your presence in town. See if you can go to them to get your shit back.
Oh, and, yes, you should apologize to the polite Argonian about last night, and offer to help if you can.

[Steve Potluck]

Say nothing about the fire; it's for the best that nobody knows you did it

Yeah, you don't want to create purrroblems fur yourself. The last thing you need to do is let the cat out of the bag. Be nice and polite, and don't show off any catitudes suggesting that you managed to catch the church on fire. Just stick to the truth, but avoid the subject of the fire. You don't want to get caught lion, especially in a church. Paws and think about what I have said, Katia.

Shut up.

Seriously, don't even joke about this. Kaz has a bad history with this stuff.

[Stormy Dragon]

> Help that poor argonian clean up.

[slashkamei]

> Help that poor argonian clean up.

Use the blanket as a makeshift robe first, then help the poor Argonian...also ask her if anyone else besides you showed up last night

[SallowFace]

We're thinking clearly now, yes? So we know that we're not responsible for the fires, right? Because Amulets of Silence don't just break.

So explain your situation to the Argonian. Tell her that someone was casting fire spells at you last night, but you couldn't see who.

Also, eat the oranges and cheese.
