PUNISH: 14
So I actually forgot to ratchet the PUNISH here,
>>5135143because you torched the dog and did not use the revolver.
I will NOT retrospectively increase it as it is my fault for forgetting to do this.
However The Red Lord Of Ruin would offer the following bargain:
for x4 +13 PUNISH, ie taking you to
PUNISH: 14 + 52 = 66,
The Red Lord Of Ruin will outright show you what weapons enemies are carrying ahead. In game we can just say that you assimilate knowledge from the Riot Guard Completed Disguise.
In addition the Red Lord will reveal what is strange about this text message that you received on your Ancient Burner Phone, the normal phone with infinite battery that appears to receive text message prayers.
>>5134158As your powers were awakened by killing the Chainsaw Maniac, The Red Lord will also immediately reveal to you what happens after the next fight occurs.
>Accept the entire bargain of the Red Lord, PUNISH: 66 (bear in mind - you declined the VR videogame headset, in order to complete your disguise. You have very limited means to recover PUNISH going forward)>Decline the bargain, arrive outside the Tower with no insight. (there will be a roll in between...)>Install tarot app on phone (-20% battery, can roll to generate some magic)>Install videogame emulator on phone. Instant PUNISH reset, and roll for new high score (roll 1d50 to reduce, then 1d12) -40% Battery>Listen to ASMR on your phone, via the Riot Police Headset (not ideal sound quality, it sounds like the scratching is clawing into your skull, but -20% battery, recover 1d20 PUNISH)>(only if very brave) log on to 4non.org/gif and search for stimulating pictures of the Red Dancer (battery charge drops instantly to 6%) You cannot install apps if you choose this, you cannot play videogames, and you cannot listen to ASMR ever again.
