Of course, and not having to buy any equipment will result in a whole lot of unspent cash. It's all part of the challenge.

Re: The Adventures of Bear-Arsed the Iron Monk

I love the idea. Would you allow yourself to sneak past certain obstacles instead of fighting your way through? I'm currently doing something similar but I avoid combat as much as possible. But I do use the environment as much as possible. This already caused some interesting situations where I was ...

Re: Wish List for Book II {Compiled}

Here are two requests: A sleep statbar? Since we can require our protagonist to eat and drink, why not require him to sleep from time to time? I rarely slept in Book I which isn't really realistic of course. It would be crazy to have to starve from not eating but still being able to go weeks without...

Re: Female vs male character attributes and skills

Or better yet... make a gender free race that can look like either male or female with no stat bonuses. Call it the "Can't Please Everyone" race... basically a Golem with a brain. Personally, I'll take whatever stat bonuses I can. +1 Dexterity will suit my roguish character tastes... ^_^ ...

Although I agree with the statement, I find it confusing that when I restore an older saved game I get other items then when I previously opened them, especially if it was an item tha...

Re: Wish List for Book II {Compiled}

I'm sure this has been mentioned already but it's worth repeating: the map skill is the best new skill I've seen in a very long while in any RPG! Genius! I would love to see it put to more use, other than drawing a prettier map. Maybe it could be used to give the player hints about certain stuff? E...

Quest locations can be confusing

This is one recommendation I haven't seen, or something I haven't seen people complain about. When someone gives a quest, I find the target location or region often to be confusing or too far off. For instance when someone refers to "the west of the Salt Coast" I go looking on the West Sal...
