SI Strange Poison

Post by EbeneezerSquid »

Quick Question: I didn't play SI much the first time through, and never played SS, and I'm going through it now and have contracted a strange poison that the healer's I've found can't heal. Anyone know how I can get rid of it and what caused it? I think it showed up about the same time I got the Balance Amulet.
Thanks~

You'll need to talk ... umm... can't remember her name. Anyway, the 'healer' in Monitor, the one on the farm in the SW of town should be able to help.

As far as I know, Harna only gives help when you get poisoned by the tattoo artist.

Yes, and that's the only poison in SI that I know of that healers can't heal

One 'poison' that I contracted once... and I use quotes of course.
When you use the 'cheat' map thing.... F3 or something and travel to the arctic snow area and start to freeze, ect, then warp back to the warm mainland, you will continue to freeze and 'Gads! It's cold here!" or something to that extent. :)
That is another 'poison' that won't heal... and took me ages to actually figure out what I had done wrong.

Live and learn.

P.S. I lost my Ultima Collection CD in my room somewhere. *cry*

***SPOILER WARNING***

***SPOILER WARNING***














The poison also appeared some time after your Knightly rituals, i.e the feasting and quaffing, the slaying of the wolf and the cloakmaking, and last but not least the tattoo ... ..... ... .. .... Speak to Harnna and Lydia.
I never thought I'd have to post a spoiler warning on SI. Thought everyone had played it through. I'm not jealous that some people are still playing it for the first time, nooo .......

I only got poisoned once, I played Serpent Isle through and through and only got struck by that evil green fiend when I was getting my tattoo.

Bleh. I just re-started Serpent isle. I had to go through the whole test and junk. (thank goodness for the hackmover)

All of that so I could find the orange anthro kitty. (Where is he anyways? I heard that he's someone in the Silver Seed area) Care to confirm? Anyone?
It's the character that gives you a ball or yarn or something.

Yurel. Found in the Maze in the Silver Seed area. Gives the Avatar the Purple Orb in return for some cheese.

The maze with the blue fire and opening and closing walls? I looked, I can't find him there.

IIRC? I've been trying to understand what that means....
Incidents In Rare Conditions?
I just need to screenshot 'Yurel'. That finicky feline.

Old savegames won't work with Exult, will they? (can't remember if it's in the FAQ... but I think it is)

I thought IIRC was some type of new chat system...I'm so pathetic...
Thanks snowy, for asking the million dollar question. :)

I thought IIRC was the chat thing too... like MiRC or whatever.
Then I saw IMHO and IMO. I thought it was some shtick for International House of Pancakes.... or some food in U7.
Then someone told me it was... "In my honest opinion" and "In my opinion".

Also, where would the dirty diaper I found during the teleport storm have come from? I don't see any cribs or nurserys or toddlers anywhere on SI.

Goblin babies are just.... wrong.

IMO = In Minoc Only
In example, Sawmill=IMO

IIRC = In Isle Of The Avatar Read Codex (I think anyway...)

Ok I get it now ;)

Actually Minoc isn't the only place that has a Sawmill. Remember the one in Paws? :P

I think the one in Paws is a flour mill.

In the sawmill I wanted to use the saw on a log. In the flourmill I attempted to use the stone thingy on a back of flour. Too bad they didn't work, but I was paying attention to more than the water wheels. :)

Pwfft! You're never right. We only say that you are so you don't "Aieeee" and run into a corner.

Also, why is it that when you turn on a Keg in a Taveren, your party will harass you even when you're thousands of miles away?

That's true in the original (the thing with the keg), but I think it's fixed in Exult.

Thank you, DrCode. I will go and check in both BG and SI soon. :)
If it isn't fixed, you're up for a visit with a keg tap. :P
