Whats up with people exploding around me!?!

Decurion · 01-27-2003, 07:31 PM

Okay, one day, I go into the Copper Coronet, and Yoshimo is there (I had previously tossed him outta my party) , and he promptly explodes. No explaination, he says nothing...just there--then BLAM!!!

Short while later, I go to the Vulgar Monkey, I walk in, and this guy yells about my being a Bhaalspawn and gets smoked out of the blue by what appears to be one of those "draw upon holy might" gray cones, blows up and dies.

So, what THE HELL is going on...is it just me? Or is it a bug.
I think probably the Monkey encounter was less likely to be a bug since there was a dialogue, but is it supposed to lead to some sort of quest that I haven't picked up on???

Got no explaination for Yoshimo, but the guy who yells out "Oh no, a Bhaalspawn!" is supposed to die in that fashion alright.

SecretMaster · 01-27-2003, 07:45 PM

Why or how Yoshimo exploded is quite a mystery, If a were you, I'd stay away from that place...

SixOfSpades · 01-27-2003, 09:07 PM

The Vulgar Monkey is actually in Brynnlaw, not in Trademeet.....but it's got a guy that dies immediately too!

I think SecretMaster's right....maybe it's the food.

Actually it's really easy why they die? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

([SPOILER])

Yoshi kicks the bucket because he had a gease on him from Irenicus, and the dude that explodes and disappears at Trademeet is a Bhaalspawn that you'll run into again in ToB. His special power is his Fearful Teleport ability. Whenever he gets scared, he'll teleport to anywhere in the world.

Come on, really now. Yoshi dies because he tried the Kara Tur food on the menu at the Copper Coronet, wanting a taste of the down home style of food from his homeland. There was was BAD reaction with MSG and an unidentified magical spice, causing a HUGE amount of gas, which led to his chunkified explosion. He was far to polite and honourable to cut loose, so, he squeezed his cheeks and held in the reek. POOF!

I had a similar experience when Butterfingers the Bard and Minsc, AKA, The Brothers of Bash tried the food. Butterfingers was able to whistle the entire score of The Song of the Seven Bitches from the back of his britches (Read Volo's Interview) and Minsc caused Boo's whiskers to fall off. Innocent bystanders insisted when the Cowled Wizards showed up that somebody casted the most foul smelling, eye watering, paint peeling, nose hair curling, skin withering Stinking Cloud ever casted. Personal accounts of the event vary.

Nalia has been quoted as saying "How are we helping the poor by polluting the air?"

Anomen stated "This stinking cesspool of humanity somehow smells worse... DAMN! What is that most putrid aroma? How will I command any respect hanging around these foul smelling fools?"

Jaheira could not be reached for comment, as aparently she packed her bags and left her Half Elven lover, after discovering the previously unknown power called the Bhaalspawn Trouser Cough. The official Harper comment. "We had not forseen this. Gorion's Ward is more powerful then we had thought. We may need to Imprison him for the sake of the greater good and to preserve the world from certain distruction."

Imoen, staying close to her brother as always was heard to say "Somebody pass me the fried rice! I GOTTA try that!"

thats the danger in reading Butterfingers posts. In my opinion, he is a hazard to us all, and should be kicked out of Ironworks, because one of these days someone is gonna get seriosly hurt [img]smile.gif[/img] . Im suffering severe pains in the chest and sides, and all because I read that cursed "Volos Interview" thread(great story BTW)!
