I just started again and the monestary always makes me wonder. What the heck are they doing with 2 necked statues, 1 holding a scull no less?
And why the high-tech room with the computer stuff?

HAHA, F o'9.

@ Television: Did you miss the forms you can see from the beach, one beheaded person you step through to get in and one whose legs are water? (with Resurrection in the appropriate part even...) & the computer stuff is to control the lights and sound system, and payroll.

Oh, and it'd MonAstEry.

These shapes - thanks for pointing them... i never saw them before. :-D But the second one... it is not really a human shape, where are its hands?

They're reaching forward, holding the dusts. You can't see them; like the rest of her body, they're made of air.

omg

Ok you clowns, you're a really big help!
I guess I'll have to question Braffit...

If you stand in front of the monastery, look straight up and jump 10 times, you will see a very special easter egg!

Thanks for the email Fiend;
What I meant was "naked". You know the statue of the naked woman kneeling in front of the healing water in the room with the coffins. And the other one in the room with the trap door in front of her, holding a scull in her hand that you have to touch to open the safe. It just doesn't belong in a monestary IMHO.

Then you have to discuss the fact, that there are stamina amulets for women only in the sleeping room of the monks in the arnika temple too :D

I think, there was a topic about that.

Yeah, that was me too, but I never did get an answer.

Ahhh, that veeery old questions... why monks need stamina amulets, why Rapax queen has got a portal to the temple, why are there so few women in Arnika etc. Plz, correct this "necked". And try my easter egg, it's really a good one!

"Although we may forget in times of strife
DEATH is a doorway to a NEW LIFE"
Hmmm... skull is a symbol of death, key to the safe with res powder is a symbol of new life... the statue has to be a symbol of that times of strife. :-D

Or maybe the programmers were just bored and wanted to have some fun with making nice 3D model, it is even more probable.... :-D

You can also ask : Why are those monks pervers?

What "game" is is to put a person on a trapdoor and let him fall to death if he don't know the meaning of the riddle ? Why don't they remove the crushed person after that ? They let him rot ( hell, how do they survive that smell ) on a crossing. And those other skeletons in the room ?

And how did they manage to transport those crates and barrels into the rooms of the lower monastery ? What is the room, where you find the safe, for ( very bloody stone ) ??? Is it a slaughterroom ? But how do the transport the animals ? Through a very nice hallway ??

Etc. etc. :D :D

Yeah, that monastery is really a strange place... Maybe Rattus knew something about it and thats why he 'disappeared'... :-D

Hmmmmm, that could be a new topic... who made him disappear and why... :-D :-D :-D

And just remembered another one :

How foolish must one be, to wait with the search for the Destinae Dominus until it's the time of The Ascension ???? :D :D

Why are there statues of naked women in a monastery, you ask?

Why not? It's a fantasy world, the creators can shape it any way they want to. Besides, there are enough religions without any taboos whatsoever about nakedness even in the real world. Don't judge everything by the standards of sexually oppressed Christianity.

Hey, I think it's great; very liberating. In fact there are 2 at the entrance to the ghosts in the Arnika Temple. But, it does make me wonder, why no male statues?
And believe me, I'm from Germany and there are a lot of Christians who go nude at the beach, or wherever, and I'm sure in your area too.

Fiend of the 9 Worlds - OK, so if I want to see that 'Special Easter egg", how do I 'Jump' ?

I saw a very strange sight once in the Rapax away camp (still a templar in good standing, the Prince quite annoyed with me - but I snuck thru the concubines to open taht safe - but couldn't "sneak" back out) - I was pushing a tent wall, fell thru - sort of 'underneath' it - saw sky, clouds - and was crushed...

Tom - that is here refered as 'falling off the map', and can happen in many places.

It was a joke about that easter egg... you can't jump in Wizardry 8. :-D But if anybody could do that - it would be a really good Easter Egg... :-D
