Alright! What route do you want to take to reach it, the minecarts or Saint Seymour? We can either make a full delve of it and keep exploring after that, or just a there-and-back run.

Minecarts then south past the spiralizing lichen, cut west through the magical barrier using the anti magic goo from the trumpet, south past the throne room and I would like to make a quick visit to the dungeon anemone and feed it a piece of my intelligence boosting fungus to try and talk with it. If it can converse with me after having it’s intelligence boosted I would like to find out how it is doing, what it likes to be called, if it needs anything. What it likes to eat. And I would like to try and hire it to join me. It could see the sights and get new foods as a defense mechanism for the mech.

Then for the tank which is next door I am going to stick a wire down through the drilled hole in the top to feel around for any scorpions attacking it or trying to escape using it. They were pretty feisty but I will wait a while trying to feel them. Then if they don’t I can break open the tank and scoop up the treasure and some dead scorpions in my urns.

Once I am properly rested and recovered, I would like to go here.
Have I managed to wring at least some of the oily goop from my clothes, or am I still dripping?

Red kangaroo and frankiestein each get one occultum strip for payment for helping out retrieving phykalla. It’s a good form of currency or you can combine it with stuff to give weird properties enhancing stuff.

Jax: And you're off! You've gotten the worst of the goop out of your clothes and bag, but you feel like you'll never be quite free of it unless you give yourself a real proper scrub with soap and hot water. Leave one inventory slot of oiliness, the rest are removed.

fifthdragon catdragonYou return, limping and cursing for one of you, to Cell Block Zero. Unfortunately Pops, someone is going to have to dig around in your leg and get all the broken teeth out, or you're going to have a bad time. The Sergeant chimes in that it's a good thing you managed to catch all those teeth your leg instead of your neck. After some grumbling and griping, he agrees to give you some free stuff. There's a rattle and clang as a "helmet" clatters down onto the floor. It's made out of a bucket with eye-holes cut and a rudimentary visor screwed into place. ((Which princess are you referring to exactly?))

In passing you see a large figure in full black armor accompanied by a walking piece of luggage. “Just catching the ghost ship to the magic extractor. I feel it’s safer than going past the vampire. Do you all need any items broken down?”

In the room with the wizard vending machine is there a painting of a royal figure who answers questions and such? If she can't help or doesn't exist, can I ask the Professor if they have any medical knowledge? If not, who does the Sergeant recommend tracking down to ask about it? Can I sell the teeth to any of the vendingmachine-kind?

Pops: Yes there is! Directly opposite the vending machine is the portrait of a dwarven lady, that looks upon you with vague boredom as you approach. "Hmm. Commoners, see. Well, I guess someone must plow the fields and such. You may kneel, I suppose."
The Professor is a little more helpful - "Hmm, nasty business. I'd get that seen to sharpish, lest you catch bloodrot, or hell, you could easily get dungeon slough down here. Either of those happens, it'll be either the leg off, or you'll have both feet in the grave! Ha! Ahem. If someone has a sharp implement, something to stop the bleeding afterwards, and either something to keep him calm or stationary, I can direct the proceedings. Probably."

Blerble is waiting for information (already paid for with 50 gold) from professor spell o matic on the name thief and how to pepetrify the worm queen. (Would lift curse work?)

Pops grunts. "Indeed. One moment, my assistants can help." He directs Porter to hold him down, and then Blade to use a combination of the hook and line from the fishing rod in the Take One pile and the edge of the axe to follow the Professor's instruction. We can get water and fire implements from St. Seymour's room to boil the blade and hook first.

Blerbles: Gotcha. Regarding de-petrifying the Worm Queen - "The curse laid upon the Queen is of such potency that a simple spell would likely not reverse it, at least not alone. It would need assistance. One of the more effective cures for petrification is the extract of the gland of the basilisk, hence the exceptional value of a tamed creature."
Pops: Blade nods, and gets the equipment. It's all sterilised and you've got boiling water to work with, but the weak link is definitely Porter. "Wait, what? Nah man, nah, this is messed up! I never signed up for going in a dungeon, but I'm here anyway. Now there's diseases and skeleton teeth and we have to hack open your leg?? Fuck that, fuck all of this!"
If you want to order him to hold you down and obey your commands, you might need to make a CHA check during the process. Or, you can try and find someone else to help.

Pops snarls at Porter. "You are bound to me by blood. You are responsible for death and misery, and if you walk away from this you will be responsible alone. So long as you serve me I take your sins onto me. Grit your teeth, eat your ego, and hold me down, or so help me I will send you to Judgement myself and your shame will incinerate your soul."

Porter grumbles and gripes and grouches, but eventually sits on your chest while Blade does the hard work. The whole procedure makes an absolute mess, but not much more than the skeleton teeth did the first time. Blade isn't gentle, but very thorough. Pops gains 1 Stress from receiving unmedicated surgery, as does Porter (the weakling), but your injury is fixed! It's still tender, obviously, but so much better than having broken teeth stuck in there.

Ooh stress! What does that do? Also, my max health is now 6, from the earlier very lucky roll.
I'd like to reclaim my blowdart from the now sadly comatose former compatriot, and Adventure Again! Back to skeleton room, to more thoroughly explore it. The other established PCs seem to be busy with things I don't understand, and I'm not alone as I've got my two-man warband with me, so I'm technically not breaking the rule about delving alone. Onwards!

When your Stress reaches 5 or higher, your character will start looking for opportunities to relieve it. It's no problem if you want to delve with just yourself as the player and with two companions, but you'll be at a bit more risk. Back and onwards we go!
