Travelers here are a dime a dozen. But you have the look of someone different. Care to join me for a drink? talk_p_proc->Tycho01 Tycho19 Word out is that you've been having some contacts with Gizmo. I'd step carefully around that barrel of lard if I were you. talk_p_proc->Tycho19 Tycho14 What do you want? talk_p_proc->Tycho14 Tycho15 Hello again.

Tycho28->TychoEnd Duh-wah? TychoJoins Tycho28->TychoJoins I think maybe we should stick together, after all. Tycho22->TychoEnd Uh, never mind. Tycho23 Yeah, I'd stay the hell away from whatever made that. Seriously, I've never seen anything like that. I think our best option is to move on, fast. Tycho22->Tycho23 Any recommendations? Tycho25 Watch out for radioactive hot spots. This place obviously sustained a direct nuclear strike, and secondary cascade radiation may be bad. I'd recommend avoiding this place completely if we can. Tycho22->Tycho25 Any recommendations? Tycho26 Note the lack of any animal life for quite a distance. And the piles of bones. Whatever lives here is a real beast. Keep your weapon handy. Tycho22->Tycho26 Any recommendations? Tycho30 There are many strange tales about Necropolis, the city of the dead. Stay alert, because it could get dangerous really fast. Tycho22->Tycho30 Any recommendations? Tycho31 I bet we could get through those force-field generators with a little hot-wiring, or if we could find the force field control computer. Tycho22->Tycho31 Any recommendations? Tycho32 A military place like this must have a central command room somewhere. Tycho22->Tycho32 Any recommendations? Tycho24 Very well. I must say that it has been an honor and a pleasure. Tycho22->Tycho24 Thanks for your help. I think it's time to part ways. TychoTactics What distance do you want me at? Tycho22->TychoTactics I need to change formation. Tycho27 Pretty good ranger training: I can use a spear, of course, in a pinch; I'm also skilled with small pistols and rifles. Tycho22->Tycho27 What sorts of weapon skills have you learned? Tycho01->TychoEnd Sorry, I'm rather pressed for time. Tycho02 Delightful. I hope you don't mind your drink well-watered - they treat beer here like it's a potted plant. Tycho01->Tycho02 Sure. Tycho03 Yeah, a drink of water. Never mind. Tycho01->Tycho03 Duh-wah? Tycho19->TychoEnd Duh-wah? Tycho20 Fair enough. But watch your back. Gizmo isn't known for his consideration for his employees. Tycho19->Tycho20 My business is none of yours. Tycho21 Suffice to say that your employer has caused more than enough misery and strife in this town. Don't expect much help from anyone, least of all Gizmo. Too bad. You might've been able to change this town for the better. Tycho19->Tycho21 Yeah, I work for Gizmo now. What's it to you? Tycho08 There's two grades of scum here. One of 'em's the Skulz, a gang that hangs out in back of Marcelles' crash house. They're just grade-B twerps. But the other ones answer to a fat freak whose name you can probably guess. Runs the casino. Those guys are organized and dangerous. Tycho14->Tycho08 I need information about the gangers here. Tycho13 Now, now, no need to get impolite. But with that attitude you'd best be on your way. Tycho14->Tycho13 Sorry to disturb your private time. Go wank somewhere else. Tycho16 Well, this is the Skum Pitt, a wretched hive of villainy and all that. Just west of here is Gizmo's, a big casino. Word is the games are rigged. A little south of here is the Crash House, run by Marcelles, where you can get a night's sleep for way too many caps. Past that is Killian's. Killian runs a general store, and he also enforces the law in this town - a good man. Then south of there you have Doc Morbid, whose operation is a little funny, if you take my meaning. Tycho14->Tycho16 I need information about the town. Tycho15->Tycho08 I need information about the gangers here. Tycho15->Tycho16 I need information about the town. Tycho18 Well it's about time. Lead on, my friend, and let's do some street sweeping. I'd recommend knocking over Gizmo, if I may. --- Well it's about time. Lead on, my friend, and let's do some street sweeping. I'd recommend knocking over Gizmo, if I may. Tycho15->Tycho18 Killian's asked me to clean up this town, and I'd like your help. Tycho04 I could ask the same of you. In the interest of amity, I suppose I'll tell first. I'm called Tycho. Came from out east, what used to be called Nevada. Tycho02->Tycho04 So, what's your story? Tycho05 Yeah, it was. Decided to take it easy for a while. This place shows some promise, just as soon as someone cleans up some of the scum. Tycho04->Tycho05 That's a pretty long trip. Tycho06 Had some pretty good training, and some good weapons, too. My grandfather was a Ranger way back when, and he taught my father everything he knew. Dad passed it on to me. So I know enough not to drink glowing water, so to speak. Tycho04->Tycho06 How did you survive all the dangers? Tycho07 Not my place. I'd rather not cross Killian, after all. He'll clean up this town when he gets around to it. A good man, mark my words. But watch out for that fellow Gizmo. Reminds me of another fat freak my father told me about back in Las Vegas. Tycho05->Tycho07 Why don't you? Tycho05->Tycho08 Yeah, I noticed. What do you know about those jerks? Tycho11 Whoa, not so fast. We never finished introductions, remember? What's your name, stranger? --- I'm --- . Tycho06->Tycho11 Interesting. Thanks for the drink. Tycho09 Yeah, well, my family taught me everything there is to know about survival. Don't drink water that's totally clear and free of insects and moss, for instance. Only poisonous or radioactive water would be that clean in the wilderness. Lots of other little things to look out for, too. Tycho06->Tycho09 Really? Survival's tough these days. You must be pretty knowledgeable. Tycho07->Tycho11 Thanks for the tip, and the drink. Tycho08->Tycho11 I see. Thanks for the info. Goodbyes Tycho08->Goodbyes Tycho11->Tycho13 None of your business, you nut. Tycho09->Tycho11 Interesting. Thanks for the drink. Tycho10 Well, if you've got some time, I could go over some pointers. Tycho09->Tycho10 Like what? Tycho10->Tycho11 Sorry, I'm kind of pressed for time. Tycho17 I hope that my little instruction course helped a bit. Tycho10->Tycho17 Sure, that would be great. Tycho17->Goodbyes Tycho13->TychoEnd Whatever. See ya.
