Not much of a story really.

I did have a game where the pebble skin suit transformed a national into a troll. A very wimpy troll. It was sad.

The Horror Story though, is a game that I took over for from another player. In said game, I quickly noticed that the previous player had equipped a very nice Great Enchantress pretender with a pebble skin suit. So, I could never put anything nice on her, like a Robe of the Magi. Had to get the pretender killed to get the damn thing off.

I subbed into a game where the pretender (a Great Enchantress as well!) had the Champion's Trident. O.o

Then another where my Ghost King had the Boots of the Planes, and I didn't notice, and 2 turns later he got Lost in Time and Space - just after I grabbed his weapon for a tartarian.

I keep wanting to try out the Pebble suit, but I hate items you can't remove - maybe I decide later I want something else?

New spell! Blobform. Turns you into a Blob with no slots, so you can get cursed items off. Now, if only we could figure out how to change you back. o.O

New Pretender:

The Great Amoeba: Four Forms. Flying, Amphibian, No Slots, Human...

[Taqwus]

Using both the amulet and the suit might be something to do if in a very silly mood. Holy identity disorder...

Well looks like also a dryad was transformed in a wolf berseker: I have found it is still sacred, priest level 1, not sure if it still a mage N1........

Dunno about that...but you could try Transformation if the equipper also has nature magic. Lots of the animal forms don't have body slots.

Kind of an ideal sequence, but...

1) Summon Tartarian with Nature (and presumably + Earth magic too.)
2) Equip pebble suit
3) Trollification
4) Transformation (cross your fingers, repeat as necessary)
5) Rinse, repeat (if you can find another N+E tart)

Ta-da! No more shattered soul for a teeny-tiny subset of your tarts!



Actually, for Nature + Death mages, Transformation to get rid of unwanted equipment + Twiceborn to re-appear as a Wight mage can be semi-viable (ok, not really, but fun to consider), at least in CBM where Transformation's not insanely expensive.

(whoops, looks like I veered a bit off topic...)

I imagine you may already know this but you can wish for a two handed item if you are holding a cursed one handed item or Helm or Armor or boots and it will give you what you wish for and remove the cursed item. Doesnt work for Misc. items though unless of course you only have one Misc. slot

I like the Blobform idea though haha.
