Below is a transcript of Only After Dark, written by Gunther Schmidl. Only After Dark was originally released as part of the 1999 Interactive Fiction Competition, where it took seventeenth place. You can learn more about the game, including how to download it, by visiting the ifWiki.WARNING! Below you will find a transcript of people playing this game, and it goes without saying that the transcript is full of spoilers. So, if you've never played this game, and think you might like to at some point, I do not recommend reading any further. Instead, you might want to return to the interactive fiction page.ANOTHER WARNING! A lot (most!) of the transcripts contained on this site are, shall we say, family-friendly. This is not one of those family-friendly transcripts. Just so we're clear. |

You can't remember when the last time was you could Floyd | relax, take a night off and stroll through town to pick up a girl or Floyd | two. It turned out your friend Aten speaks a dialect not unlike that Floyd | of the villagers, and so he joined your captain, who's with the Floyd | village elder at the moment.

A gigantic tree stands Floyd | in the middle, reaching hundreds of feet up into the cool night air. Floyd | The huts of the villagers are strewn around the clearing's border, Floyd | close to the jungle. Floyd | A large stone circle contains charred wood from last night's bonfire, Floyd | and there is a rickety wooden platform under one of the lower branches Floyd | of the tree. Floyd | Floyd | "Ranil! Remember to be back on the Dagon tomorrow at sunrise! Unless Floyd | you want to lose a month's pay, that is," you hear Quartermaster Floyd | Gerhardsen shout in your direction. You nod, and he waves at you and Floyd | disappears out of sight.

| Lionheart says, "Forget treasure, we're on a quest for poon. :-o" | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "Evidently." | ||||
| Gunther arrives, full of fun and funk. | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x me" | ||||
Floyd | You are Ranil Kuami, 22, black, and sailor aboard the "Dagon". You're Floyd | wearing your best clothes for tonightYou're wearing a pair of Floyd | trousers; your favorite talisman hangs around your neck on a thin Floyd | chain. Your left ear is decorated by a small gold ring, and your Floyd | dreadlocks are tamed by a headband. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x talisman" | ||||
Floyd | A strange stone, shaped like a deformed pentagram, hangs on a thin Floyd | chain around your neck. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x trouser" | ||||
Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x trousers" | ||||
Floyd | You've decided to wear your best shirt and trousers on this occasion, Floyd | along with your leather boots, the left of which hides your favourite Floyd | knife. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x knife" | ||||
Floyd | Your trusty knife that has aided you in many a fight against humans as Floyd | well as certain inhabitants of the oceans. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "i.e. squid" | |||

Floyd | You are carrying: Floyd | your clothes (being worn) Floyd | your talisman (being worn) Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x circle" | ||||
Floyd | Several big round stones have been laid out to form an exact circle. Floyd | Inside are the glowing remains of tonight's bonfire, when the Floyd | villagers prepared a boar for their guests. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x huts" | ||||
Floyd | The huts are built of wood and seem to be held together with the vines Floyd | that grow everywhere around here. Still, they look comfortable and Floyd | stable enough. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Lionheart says (to floyd), "x platform" | ||||
Floyd | Upon closer inspection, you notice a rope slung over the branch the Floyd | platform was built under! Looks like this is a kind of gallows, though Floyd | the state of the structure seems to indicate it hasn't been used for a Floyd | long time. Floyd | Floyd | > | Gunther says, "IRTA butts" | |||

Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Touchy says, "hm..." | |||

Floyd | A length of rope made of vines, slung over a branch of the tall tree. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart says, "Ropes are always useful" | |||

Floyd | That's hardly portable. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Lionheart says (to floyd), "x tree" | ||||
Floyd | Most definitely the largest tree you've ever seen. You suspect it has Floyd | a special meaning for the villagers. Floyd | Floyd | > | olethros asks, "climb tree?" | |||

| Jacqueline says, "Sure." | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Gunther), "Also, quoted." | ||||

Floyd | You didn't come here to scale trees! Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Floyd | You don't need it, and you can't reach it from down here, anyway. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "hahaha - Binder was right." | |||
| Lionheart says, "Maybe not always useful, then" | ||||
| Binder:) | ||||

| Touchy says (to Floyd), "knock on door" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognize. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Floyd | What would you do up there? Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Lionheart can see a dream in your dance. Lionheart can see tomorrow in your dance. We can call it, "our hope"! | Binder says (to Gunther), "turns out, I don't even need a rope." | |||
| olethros says (to Floyd), "hang!" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognize. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | As you start to walk, you sense movement from the corner of your eye. Floyd | You turn around only to see the most amazingly beautiful woman walking Floyd | directly towards you. You seem to recall her name as "Lyca". Floyd | Floyd | "Hello," you say, somewhat sheepishly. She smiles at you and reaches Floyd | for your hand, gently pulling you towards what seems to be her hut. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Lionheart arrives, full of neither funk nor fun. | Binder says, "mmm lycra" | |||
| Jacqueline says, "Goodness." | ||||
| Lionheart says, "What'd I miss" | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "We didn't have to look too hard." | ||||
| Binder says, "By not looking desperate, we got picked up by a native lady." | ||||
| Touchy says, "You're just in time for the nasty." | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Lionheart), "Nothing, that I can see. We had the, um, breakthrough after you returned." | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "follow" | ||||
Floyd | What do you want to follow? Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Village Center Floyd | The center of this small village is a roughly circular clearing in the Floyd | jungle-forest that covers most of this island. A gigantic tree stands Floyd | in the middle, reaching hundreds of feet up into the cool night air. Floyd | The huts of the villagers are strewn around the clearing's border, Floyd | close to the jungle. Floyd | A large stone circle contains charred wood from last night's bonfire, Floyd | and there is a rickety wooden platform under one of the lower branches Floyd | of the tree. Floyd | Floyd | You can see Lyca here. Floyd | Floyd | Lyca begins tugging on your arm, towards her hut. This is one Floyd | determined young lady! Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "haha" | |||
| Touchy says, "maybe she wants to eat us" | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "follow lyca" | ||||
Floyd | You allow Lyca to lead you into her hut... Floyd | Floyd | Lyca's Hut Floyd | Lyca's hut is small, but comfortable. Apart from a few flower Floyd | arrangements, it is entirely undecorated. Much to your surprise, the Floyd | 'bed' is much like the sleeping quarters on the Dagon; a hammock made Floyd | of vines is hung from the ceiling, easily large enough for three Floyd | people. Floyd | Lyca motions at you to take off your clothes and begins to do so Floyd | herself. Floyd | Floyd | > | Touchy says, "lyca sounds awfully like a werewolf" | |||
| Jacqueline says (to Touchy), "Perhaps." | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "Also, wowza." | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "I am not sure this transcript can go up on my site." | ||||
| Touchy says, "haha" | ||||
| Lionheart says, "Well, this quest was achieved with all alacrity. Nice work everyone" | ||||
| Jacqueline asks, "What debauchery comes next?" | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Lh), "Thanks. We're just that good." | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "If we remove our clothes, we lose our knife." | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "Touchy may have a point about this chyk." | ||||
| Touchy says, "We don't need to take off everything." | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "take off pants" | ||||
Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "take off trousers" | ||||
Floyd | You quickly step out of your clothes and discard them. Floyd | Floyd | Lyca nods approvingly, then smiles and motions you toward the hammock. Floyd | Floyd | > | Binder says, "I like that she's got a three-seater hammock. That bodes well." | |||
| Touchy says, "hahaha" | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "snrk" | ||||
| Binder says, "Of course, we should have known, as soon as we saw that she sleeps in a hammock, that she swings." | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x knife" | ||||
Floyd | Your trusty knife that has aided you in many a fight against humans as Floyd | well as certain inhabitants of the oceans. Floyd | Floyd | Sighing and rolling her eyes, Lyca shoves you towards the hammock. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "This girl is scary." | |||
| Binder says, "I value her forthrightness." | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "slap lyca" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognize. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "enter hammock" | ||||
Floyd | Lyca jumps on the hammock, landing directly on you. Her hands close Floyd | tightly around your wrists, her thighs sit on yours, effectively Floyd | pinning you to the mat as she slowly begins making love to you. You Floyd | are completely surprised at her fierceness at first, but that doesn't Floyd | take longer than a few seconds. Floyd | Floyd | Lyca kisses you passionately, still moving slowly, teasingly. Floyd | Floyd | > | Gunther says, "I'm way too amused by the stuff I put in" | |||
| Jacqueline says, "snrk" | ||||
| Lionheart says, "Okaaay. We're being railroaded into the tunnel whether we like it or not" | ||||
| Touchy exclaims, "You're so great!" | ||||
| Touchy says, "Railroad... tunnel... yeah" | ||||
| Touchy says, "OK, time to guess an amusing word for fuck." | ||||
| Binder says (to Touchy), "HA." | ||||
| Gunther says, "the entire game is, I'm afraid, one long, stiff railroad" | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "The jokes and innuendo practically write themselves." | ||||
| Gunther says, "I mean rigid, dammit" | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Gunther), "Oh dear. Timing." | ||||
| Binder says, ". o O ( one long stiff rigid? )" | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "wait" | ||||
Floyd | Time passes. Floyd | Floyd | You close your eyes, shuddering with pleasure, as Lyca runs her tongue Floyd | over your throat, her movements in perfect synchronity with the Floyd | caress, her breathing faster. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "So, when does she devour us?" | |||
| Lionheart says (to floyd), "enter lyca" | ||||
Floyd | Lie back, relax, enjoy -- you have no choice, anyway. Floyd | Floyd | Pleasure turns to pain as Lyca starts moving faster and faster, Floyd | scratching your wrists with her fingernails, now positively panting-- Floyd | Floyd | You open your eyes and are frozen in terror for a second. What sits on Floyd | you is no longer a woman, but a large wolf! Floyd | Floyd | Lyca -- the thing -- howls in ecstasy and you in pain as her claws dig Floyd | deeply into your wrists and ankles. Her muzzle moves toward your Floyd | throat, and you prepare for a quick death. Her muzzle touches your Floyd | talisman, and she suddenly howls again, an inhuman scream, and her Floyd | paws loosen the death grip on you. You both lose your balance and fall Floyd | out of the hammock. While the wolf-thing paws at her muzzle, you Floyd | quickly grasp for your clothes and pull your knife from its hidden Floyd | sheath in your boot. Floyd | Floyd | > | Touchy says, "after she is impregnated" | |||
| Jacqueline says (to Touchy), "AIEE" | ||||
| Touchy says, "zing" | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Touchy), "Well done, btw." | ||||
| Gunther says, "good thing you didn't take that off" | ||||
| Lionheart says, "Hooray for wolfsbane talismans." | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Gunther), "We'll have to go back and find that ending, yeah." | ||||
| Binder exclaims, "now kill her!" | ||||
| Touchy says, "Maybe if we don't kill her she will turn into a hottie again..." | ||||
| Binder says, "Good point." | ||||
| Lionheart says, "But there's a gallows outside" | ||||
| Lionheart asks, "What is it for if not lynching lupes?" | ||||
| Touchy says, "Lynching seers obviously." | ||||
| Binder says, "We're only guess it's a gallows. Maybe it's an elevated discoteque." | ||||
| Binder says, "guessING" | ||||
| Lionheart says, "Actually, the villagers may have already lost that game" | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "attack lyca" | ||||
Floyd | As you gather up the clothes in a ball, the wolf jumps at you, he mass Floyd | of her body knocking you to the floor. The next thing you feel is her Floyd | claws tearing your abdomen open, and then unconsciousness kindly takes Floyd | you. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | *** You have died *** Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game or QUIT? Floyd | > | Touchy coughs. | |||
| Touchy says, "Excuse me." | ||||
| Lionheart asks, "Gather up the clothes to attack her with?" | ||||
| Lionheart says, "I was thinking fists, not trouser whipping" | ||||
| Binder says, "The PC reasoned that she was so eager to have us both shed our clothes because she can be harmed by clothes." | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "haha" | ||||
| Touchy says, "hrhr" | ||||

| Jacqueline scrolls back. | ||||
| Binder says, "I guess she's getting a discount by bundling her deadly sins." | ||||
| Lionheart says (to floyd), "out" | ||||
Floyd | Unfortunately, the wolf-thing is between you and the door. Floyd | The wolf jumps directly at you, this time not attempting to go for Floyd | your throat.

Floyd | (First taking off the talisman) Floyd | Desperately, you throw the talisman at the wolf. She reacts with Floyd | surprising speed, but not fast enough. You watch in amazement as her Floyd | fur seems to catch fire and she emits a blood-curling howl, throwing Floyd | her mass around, coming for you. Floyd | Floyd | But the pain slows her down and you manage to bury your knife in one Floyd | of her eyes before she can tear you apart. You quickly jump back and Floyd | out of her reach as she crumples to the floor, lifeless, and manage to Floyd | hit your head on a wooden beam, knocking yourself out... Floyd | | Touchy says, "argh...typecancer" | |||

Floyd | [Strike any key to continue...] Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | You open your eyes and stare along the shaft of a spear pointed Floyd | directly at your throat. On the other end you make out two upset Floyd | villagers. You are pulled to your feet, an unitelligible stream of Floyd | words coming from the men. One grabs you by the hair and turns your Floyd | head where the dead wolf lies. Floyd | Floyd | Your eyes widen in shock. There lies Lyca, but not the wolf-thing; it Floyd | is the human Lyca, blood-streamed, the knife still stuck in her eye. Floyd | Floyd | Looking back at the guards, you know it's senseless to try and explain Floyd | yourself. Pure hatred is in their eyes, and one gestures across his Floyd | throat with a finger. Then, they brutally drag you off to a hut Floyd | standing seperate from the others, throw you inside and block the door Floyd | from the other side. Floyd | Floyd | As you pick yourself up, you notice you're wearing your talisman Floyd | again. Strange. Floyd | Floyd | Jail Hut Floyd | This hut is bare except for an uncomfortable-looking wooden frame, Floyd | around which vines have been wound to produce a sort of bed. There are Floyd | no windows, so it's rather dark. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart says, "finger across throat, the universal sign of 'let's string him up'" | |||
| Binder says, "So attack lyca with talisman fails but throw talisman at her works? OK." | ||||

Floyd | [Strike any key to continue...] Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | The sound of the door being opened awakes you with a start. In come Floyd | the village Elder and the intimidating shaman, accompanied by the two Floyd | guards. The Elder says something to one of the guards. He quickly Floyd | moves behind you, restraining your hands with rope, then helps you to Floyd | step into your trousers. Floyd | Floyd | You are quickly led to the platform in the village center, where the Floyd | gallows have already been prepared. The guards push through the small Floyd | crowd of assembled villagers, up the steps, then fasten the rope Floyd | around your neck. Floyd | Floyd | Just then, you see Gerhardsen and Aten step out of the woods. Seeing Floyd | what's up, they run towards the Elder, your friend shouting something Floyd | in their language. Floyd | Floyd | You see the shaman and Elder turn towards the two. "Mr. Gerhardsen! Floyd | Aten!" you shout in relief. Floyd | Floyd | "Don't worry, Ranil, we'll have you out of there in no time," comes Floyd | Gerhardsen's response. He stands in front of the Elder, taller by Floyd | almost a head, and begins shouting at him, with Aten translating. The Floyd | shaman answers back, and soon they are engaged in heated conversation. Floyd | Floyd | Suddenly, you notice something about the shaman that makes you flinch: Floyd | He is wearing a wolf fur! Floyd | Floyd | As you open your mouth to join the argument, the guard next to you Floyd | reacts swiftly, wrapping one arm around your torso and covering your Floyd | mouth and nose with the other hand, smothering you. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | > | Gunther says, "what? it's just old(school)" | |||
| Lionheart says (to floyd), "x fur" | ||||
Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart says, "No gesticulating at the fur to communicate to the tribesmen then" | |||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "bite" | ||||
Floyd | What do you want to bite? Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Lionheart says (to floyd), "shaman" | ||||
Floyd | Your mouth is covered! Floyd | Floyd | The argument is becoming more heated, with everyone shouting at Floyd | everyone else. You struggle for air, but the guard's hand clamps your Floyd | mouth and nose even tighter. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart says, "Ah, right" | |||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "bite guard" | ||||
Floyd | Desperately, you try and bite the guard's hand. You manage to get the Floyd | side of his hand between your teeth and sink them in. The guard curses Floyd | loudly, pulling his hand back, and the attention focuses on you. Floyd | Floyd | Angrily, the injured villager shoves you off the platform. You fall Floyd | two or three feet, suspended in mid-air by the rope around your neck. Floyd | Floyd | Shoving the Elder aside, Aten runs to you and quickly cuts you loose. Floyd | You try to say something, but only manage a croak before the shaman Floyd | shouts something on the top of his lungs. Floyd | Floyd | You and Aten watch in horror as as the villagers fall to the ground, Floyd | and rise as wolves! Floyd | Floyd | As you turn and flee blindly towards the ship, you hear the screams of Floyd | poor Gerhardsen behind you as he is being torn to shreds... Floyd | Floyd | > | Touchy says, "yikes" | |||
| Binder says, "It must be a Thursday." | ||||
| Lionheart says, "Yep, the villagers lost." | ||||
| Binder says (to Lionheart), "Heh." | ||||
| Gunther falls brain under heels for a pale vampire kid, who goes to high school even though he's immortal. | Binder asks, "Keep fleeing?" | |||
| Touchy says, "that seems reasonable" | ||||
| Lionheart says (to floyd), "flee" | ||||
Floyd | That's not a verb I recognize. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Binder says (to Floyd), "run" | ||||
Floyd | Aten leads the way with you close behind. You can hear the panting of Floyd | the wolves, hot in pursuit. Floyd | Floyd | Running through the Woods Floyd | Trees, some of them several hundred feet tall, line the narrow Floyd | trampled path you are running along. They block most of the sunlight; Floyd | it's hard not to accidentally stumble or fall over some hidden bump in Floyd | this twilight. Floyd | Floyd | Aten is running next to you, breathing heavily. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart says, "I see, it's only time to run when the captain does" | |||
| Touchy asks, "Is he falling back?" | ||||
| Touchy says, "behind" | ||||
| Binder exclaims, "Can you imagine the anarchy if people ran whenever they wanted to? Order must be maintained!" | ||||
| Gunther arrives, full of funk, but no fun. | * Gunther has joined the channel. | |||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "run" | ||||
Floyd | The path is well-trodden here, and you manage to pick up more speed. Floyd | The distance to the ship seemed much smaller yesterday evening... Floyd | Floyd | Running through the Woods Floyd | Trees, some of them several hundred feet tall, line the narrow Floyd | trampled path you are running along. They block most of the sunlight; Floyd | it's hard not to accidentally stumble or fall over some hidden bump in Floyd | this twilight. Floyd | Floyd | Aten is running next to you, breathing heavily. Floyd | Floyd | > | Ellison says, "have to run already. later!" | |||
| Ellison goes back to Squeamhurst.. | ||||
| Ellison has disconnected. | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "run" | ||||
Floyd | For a second, Aten glances over his shoulder at you, but that is Floyd | already too much. He stumbles over a tree-root and falls. You only Floyd | just manage to jump over him. Floyd | Floyd | You feel bad, but you do not stop running. You know you can't help Floyd | him, the wolves would get you both. "RUN!" he shouts after you, and Floyd | then his screams fill your ears, a cold rage rising in you. Floyd | Floyd | Running through the Woods Floyd | The forest is less dense here, and you can see the sun standing high, Floyd | dazzling you, but also illuminating your path. Treacherous vines lie Floyd | across the ground, forcing you to concentrate even more on where you Floyd | step. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart says (to gunther), "Didn't miss anything, just 'run'." | |||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "run" | ||||
Floyd | You are very exhausted by now, and the wolves, only temporarily Floyd | distracted by Aten, gain on you again. Floyd | Floyd | Running through the Woods Floyd | You have reached the edge of the forest, and can see the Dagon Floyd | anchoring in the bay. Only a few yards to go! Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "run" | ||||
Floyd | Finally, you reach the shore. The boat lies here, but you don't have Floyd | the time to set it afloat. Instead, you jump directly into the cold Floyd | water, swimming a safe distance from the shore. The wolves break out Floyd | of the woods but they stop at the water, howling and hissing. It seems Floyd | they are afraid of it; and you swim towards the Dagon unhindered. Floyd | Floyd | Quickly, strong hands pull you out of the water and you are escorted Floyd | into the Captain's cabin. Floyd | Floyd | You quickly explain what happened; and though the story doesn't even Floyd | sound convincing to yourself, Captain Davids believes you. Floyd | Floyd | "I have heard of werewolves in these parts, but a whole village? This Floyd | evil must be stopped. I have the suspicion that this shaman you spoke Floyd | of is the cause of this evil... if we manage to destroy him, maybe the Floyd | others will be saved, too." Floyd | Floyd | You nod; it didn't seem that the villagers had any idea of what was Floyd | going on when they were gathered to lynch you. Floyd | Floyd | "I have an idea. It is very dangerous, but it might work. In my Floyd | library are certain old books; and one of them describes a salve that Floyd | can transform a man into a wolf for some time." Floyd | Floyd | You nod grimly. "Let me do it." Floyd | Floyd | "Ranil! It is very dangerous! If you stay in wolf-form too long, you Floyd | might not be able to ever become human again; and I do not know if Floyd | your strength can match that of the shaman. But I can see in your eyes Floyd | that you are determined to do it, and so I shall prepare everything. Floyd | Floyd | "I know it is only morning, but you must go and sleep now, for you Floyd | will need all your strength later. I shall wake you around midnight." Floyd | Floyd | Again, you nod, and leave for your hammock in the ship's hold as Floyd | Davids pulls a black-bound leather tome out of his book case. You lie Floyd | down and quickly fall into a troubled sleep. Floyd | | Touchy says, "wheee" | |||
| Gunther says, "thankfully there's recap" | ||||
| Touchy says, "lots of text" | ||||
| Lionheart says, "Okay, now we've been ordered to run." | ||||
| Touchy says, "ok now we turn and fight" | ||||
| Lionheart says, "It thought it was _vampires_ who couldn't cross running water." | ||||

| Gunther pushes the green 'space' button. | ||||
Floyd | [Strike any key to continue...] Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Shortly after midnight, Davids gently shakes you awake. Floyd | Floyd | "I have prepared the salve, Ranil. I have to warn you again - it is Floyd | very dangerous to stay in wolf-form too long. Are you sure you really Floyd | want to do this? Floyd | Floyd | "Yes." Floyd | Floyd | Davids tells you to remove your clothes, then proceeds to rub the Floyd | salve into your body. "I'm afraid his is going to hurt. Here," he Floyd | hands you a piece of wood, "bite down on this." Floyd | Floyd | At first, you feel nothing. Then, a tingle runs over your skin, and Floyd | then the pain hits you. You fall to the floor, your teeth grinding Floyd | into the wood, your vision dimmed. Your breath comes in short gasps, Floyd | and an explosion of pain makes you pass out for a few seconds. Floyd | Floyd | When you can think clearly again, you open your eyes. Everything is Floyd | dark, except for a large red blotch in the center of your vision. You Floyd | inhale deeply and an impossible number of sensations stream from all Floyd | sides. Floyd | Floyd | Wood, salve, clothes, skin, flesh, blood. Floyd | | Jacqueline says, "This is pretty good, Gunther." | |||
| Binder says, "It's every monster which needs to be inconvenienced by a mundane geographical barrier." | ||||
| Gunther says, "sorry, I have no idea why the "press any key" stuff shows up AFTER you do" | ||||
| Lionheart asks, "I missed something important I guess. Can Floyd recap?" | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "I like how he doesn't tell us it'll be painful until *after* he puts the salve on us." | ||||
| Jacqueline asks, "Did we killl Davids?" | ||||
| Touchy says, "I'm just imagining some dude rubbing salve on some naked dude..." | ||||
| Jacqueline pushes the green 'space' button. | ||||
Floyd | [Strike any key to continue...] Floyd | Floyd | You try to rise, but find you are too weak yet. Davids quickly holds Floyd | your muzzle in both hands and ties some rope around it. Floyd | Floyd | "Sorry, boy, but I can't have you kill anyone yet." Floyd | Floyd | You growl at him, but he grabs you by the nape of the neck and leads Floyd | you to one of the boats. It is quickly lowered and Davids rows you Floyd | over to the shore. As you jump on the beach, Davids removes the rope Floyd | and quickly makes for the Dagon again. Floyd | Floyd | "Kill him. And be back in two hours, or it may be too late." Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Beach Floyd | The many different scents on the beach are overwhelming, but there is Floyd | one that is stronger and more evil than all the others. Floyd | Floyd | > | Binder says, "This train just keeps picking up steam." | |||
| Jacqueline says (to Touchy), "Try not to get too distracted." | ||||
| Binder asks, "... we can tell evil by smell?" | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "smell" | ||||
Floyd | [Since your vision isn't very good as a wolf, you prefer smelling Floyd | things.] Floyd | Floyd | Beach Floyd | The many different scents on the beach are overwhelming, but there is Floyd | one that is stronger and more evil than all the others. Floyd | Floyd | > | Touchy says, "I resent your implications." | |||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "smell evil" | ||||
Floyd | You guess this is the shaman's scent. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "hahaha" | |||
| Gunther says (to Lionheart), ""@recap #toyshop 300" or so" | ||||
| Touchy says (to Floyd), "follow the smell of evil" | ||||
Floyd | You can't see any such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Binder says (to Floyd), "follow evil" | ||||
Floyd | You put your muzzle to the ground and follow the strong scent to the Floyd | northeast, until you arrive at a... Floyd | Floyd | Fork in the Path Floyd | The path forks here. Inexplicably, the shaman's scent follows both Floyd | trails, still strong along the northeast and barely tangible to the Floyd | northwest. Your wolf-sense warns you of danger along the first path. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart asks, "Why they always turning the brother man into an animal?" | |||
| Jacqueline says, "This is awesome. Well anticipated, Gunther." | ||||
| Touchy says, "heehee wolfsense" | ||||

| Jacqueline glares at Touchy. "I am not." | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "I'm just protective of you all." | ||||
| Binder says, "weak path to gain info before a confrontation, I'd think" | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Fork in the Path Floyd | The path forks here. Inexplicably, the shaman's scent follows both Floyd | trails, still strong along the northeast and barely tangible to the Floyd | northwest. Your wolf-sense warns you of danger along the first path. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
| Binder says (to Floyd), "nw" | ||||
Floyd | You follow the scent along the northwestern trail, but it is soon lost Floyd | in the undergrowth and you are forced to return to the fork. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart asks, "Was turning into a wolf really the best option they had? Is there no ordnance on the ship?" | |||
| Binder says, "Um. OK then! No shunt lines here." | ||||
| Binder says (to Floyd), "ne" | ||||
Floyd | Ignoring the warnings of your wolf-sense, you follow the path to the Floyd | northeast. The scent intensifies, and soon you see the shape of the Floyd | shaman before you. Floyd | Floyd | Suddenly, the feeling of danger becomes even stronger - this is too Floyd | easy. There must be a trap here, somewhere. Floyd | Floyd | Clearing Floyd | A circular clearing has been cut in the heart of the forest. The Floyd | ground is even; a large stone altar stands here, covered with... Floyd | stuff; you can't make anything out past the shaman's scent. Floyd | Floyd | The shaman stands here with his back turned to you. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart says, "I guess no -silver- ordnance." | |||
| Binder says, "I'm always happy to try the obvious." | ||||
| Binder says (to Floyd), "kill shaman" | ||||
Floyd | You run to attack the shaman, and suddenly sky and earth swap places Floyd | as you run over a certain spot, springing a hidden trap that catches Floyd | you in a tight net! Floyd | Floyd | Smiling, the shaman turns around and motions into the woods. Ten men Floyd | emerge, and you are quickly lowered to the ground and tightly wrapped Floyd | up with rope. Helplessly, you growl, snarl and snap at everyone that Floyd | comes too close, but the net prevents you from actually hurting Floyd | someone. Floyd | Floyd | The shaman begins stroking your fur, talking all the time, and Floyd | irritation soon turns to pleasure. After an hour, you have forgotten Floyd | any ties to your former human existence. The shaman orders the Floyd | villagers to release you and offers you a large, bloody steak; you Floyd | greedily devour it, then lay contentedly at the heel of your new Floyd | master.

Floyd | Floyd | He pulls the trigger, and a glittering cloud engulfs you. Blinding Floyd | pain, and then nothing. Floyd | | Jacqueline says (to LH), "Nice" | |||
| Jacqueline asks, "Have you played this?" | ||||
| Lionheart says, "Nope" | ||||
| Binder pushes the green 'space' button. | ||||
Floyd | [Strike any key to continue...] Floyd | Floyd | You awake looking into the worrying face of Captain Davids. Floyd | Floyd | "Thank God, I thought I'd lost you. Sorry for the silver treatment; it Floyd | was the only way ro make sure you wouldn't kill us." Floyd | Floyd | You smile, exhausted. "You could have told me before it hurts that Floyd | much." Floyd | Floyd | Davids opens his mouth, but you stop him with a gesture. "Don't worry. Floyd | I've survived, haven't I? More important is: have I done it?" Floyd | Floyd | Davids nods and responds, but his words are lost on you as you fade Floyd | back to sleep. Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | *** The End *** Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Would you like to RESTART, RESTORE a saved game or QUIT? Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "Or am I just not thinking wolfy and you are?" | |||
| Lionheart asks, "They had silver all this time?" | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to LH), "ha! Good point." | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "Maybe just the one." | ||||
| Binder says, "They don't want to waste it on villagers." | ||||
| Touchy asks, "OK after this amazing introduction, who's up for christmas werewolf?" | ||||
| Gunther says (to Lionheart), "try shooting dozens of villagers at once though" | ||||
| Jacqueline says (to Touchy), "The thought had crossed my mind, yes." | ||||
| Lionheart asks (of Gunther), "Well, the idea was just to kill the alpha, right?" | ||||
| Gunther says, "yeah, but you gotta get past everyone else, possibly twice" | ||||
| Lionheart says, "And yeah, I am in the mood for some Werewolf" | ||||
| Lionheart asks, "So what would have happened if we took the easy path?" | ||||
| Jacqueline asks, "We tried, didn't we?" | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "It didn't work. We lost the scent." | ||||
| Lionheart says, "Ah, k" | ||||
| Jacqueline says, "It was just foreshadowing. Gunther is into heavy literary devices like that." | ||||
