The Curse of Kowhai Mall

Role:

Victoria

Player:

Talitha

You are a mad scientist who was 99% of the way complete in making a Frankenstein when some vampires stole the body! Of all the things! You had no idea vampires were even real! Your tracking device suggests the body is somewhere in or around Kowhai mall.

Goals

1. Find your Frankenstein
2. Complete your Frankenstein
3. The vampires trashed your lair, so you will trash theirs in retribution
4. Once you have taken revenge on the vampires, buy yourself (and your Frankenstein) a train ticket and go home to tidy up.

For extra credit, kill a vampire.

Your tracker is currently indicating that the Frankenstein is somewhere nearby, but it isn't beeping like crazy, so it's probably not out here in the eatery.
Your Frankenstein will be an NPC, that you have good control over. Will explain more once he is in your possession.

ambic · Post Post #6 (isolation #3) » Sun Oct 10, 2021 5:17 pm

No, it will tell you when you are close if you look at it. You will know when your frankenstein is nearby. Right now, its telling you that its somewhere in the mall and or its surrounds.

For your reference from the Grotto thread:

The Grotto Camera

As you scroll through the recent photos, you see a Santa, and various children sitting on his lap. Nothing interesting, bar one. There seems to be a photo of Santa with some of the staff of the mall. Sarah and Sally who are standing at the Service Counter and Phone store are both there. As is Merrick, the book seller just near by you. There a few more people you don't recognise yet, but may well be around the mall. The one that stands out is a security guard, and he is interesting. He is standing right next to Blitzen, and his hand seems to be going into Blitzen's side as though Blitzen isn't even there.

You feel different. As you stand there watching the sky, you feel as though you have MANA. You now have a MANA statistic added to your game. The meteor storm has somehow given you 6 Mana points. But you have no idea how to spend them. How very strange.

Vent 4 takes you a LONG way, and you end up looking into Legerdemain Supplies. THere is a magician practising a card trick in here. He's pretty good. No one else in sight though

You follow the vent along, and you come out in a very small room. Its a reinforced room, and there is a glowing orb here taking up most of the room. It glows red and blue in a swirling pattern. Almost looks like a tiny planet, but it's about 3ft in diameter, so it's not small.
You are not quite sure where this room is located.

You watch in fascination as Charlie supernaturally blocks the demons abilities, and all of a sudden you know exactly how he did that.

It looks like the main sale items from this rack have been purchased already. Everything that remains looks like junk

Edit: Take that back! There is a Mana cloak still for sale for 50.00 dollars. It reportedly gains the wearer mana back over time.

There is however a pair of ruby red shoes poking out from under the clothes. For sale, but the price tag just says "Cheap - used"

You can mop the floor all you like, the windows in here are too small to fit through, and they don't open

ambic · Post Post #272 (isolation #157) » Tue Nov 02, 2021 7:16 pm

The other shops are similar, unfortunately. If you want access, you need to go to the Cafe or the Spa.

Ozob will let you have the shoes if you mop.
