Second person to obtain a 5 card lodging.


  • Man having 5 cards looks wierd.

    No cats or investigations of photographers please.
    Same goes for Sparring,Loitering,Suppers and Games of chess! Sure I'll accept them occasionaly but I wont help you grind them most of the time.
    But calling cards are highly welcome! (Got too much influence for cards at the moment. Sorry!)

    Well done, champ! The fact that you were able to acquire 10 Notability is simply amazing.

    I think it's Notability 9 for the Sanctum and the Suite. Which still makes this very impressive, mind; I can see why you'd bother shooting for the 100% chance, being that close to your goal. Congrats.

    That's correct, but it's 10 Notability for the Spire-Emporium at the Bazaar.

    I have the necessary Enigmas, and I've tried for the Theorem. Twice, so far. Each time I ended up stone dead (Wounds at 11--the Spirit has Departed!) Did a *lot* of chess-playing with the Boatman (I'm not Boatman's Opponent at 9) to get back. Worst of all, my chance of succeeding at it is only 31% and that's with Watchful at 264 (64 worth of items, 200 natural stat). Arrgh.

    That is why I didn't mention the Emporium; I was assuming that Voodoo Maser's belief it was Notability 10 was thinking that the requirement there was the same for all three, so I mentioned the two that weren't.

    Roland is right, I assumed all three require Notability 10. Anyway, 9 is just as impressing, in my opinion. Right now I'm struggling to get to 6.

    Brief note: You can move into the sanctum from BOTH the guest room key and the actual "Infernal diplomatic privelages". Also the text is quite interesting. Ive echoed some of it on my profile.

    I'm working on the enigmas now. Is the Theorem challenge not one that you can back out of using a second chance if you fail?

  • Straight to dead - wounds 0 to wounds 11, both times I failed as well. Horsehead amulets can save you - but each one only saves you from a few CP of wounds. It would take a wagonload to keep you safe from wounds 11.

    Somewhat tangential question: Are the cards for these lodgings still coming up? I finally scrabbled together 50 Antique Mysteries for a reservation at the Royal Bethlehem, and I haven't seen the card in days. Can these lodgings only be bought through the Bazaar?

    In order to buy that reservation you'll have to meet the Merry Gentleman in the usual way and pay him then.

    More generally, the Lodging cards are now all locked with their respective keys. So you need to get the key in another way- Penstock's Land Agency at the Bazaar, the Merry Gentleman card, the Hell Connection card, or somewhere in the sidestreets.

    That would explain things. I've been pretty good about keeping my Nightmares down, so I haven't seen him. either. Until now.

    Also, I found where you buy Premises at the Bazaar in the Side-streets; shockingly enough, you obtain legal right to Bazaar premises at the offices of Baseborn and Fowlingpiece, Solicitors.

    Woo, I moved into the spire-emporium. And I did it without selling nadir to the revs. I'm really glad masters blood was made available via other means. I get to continue to be a bohemian Big Grin

    Edit: aaaaaaa misclick aaaaaaa I sold nadir to the revs on accident after I got the spire aaaaaaa
