Otorian Battle Scar
This is the proud post-battle beverage of those noblest of warriors, the Otori clan. The ingredients of the drink are a closely guarded secret, but it is rumored to contain four feathers from the tail of a phoenix, the blood of slain foes, and a little grenadine for flavor. It has been said that drinking one is like being hit with a slice of lemon wrapped around a fairly large samurai sword.
Type: booze (quality unspecified)
Potency: UNSPECIFIED
Cannot be discarded
(In-game plural: Otorian Battle Scars)
When Consumed
|
| You try to drink the Otorian Battle Scar, but stop because you feel that you're not worthy of such a noble beverage. |
Notes
- 42 of these were created by Jick and given to the members of Clan Otori for the clan's 1-year anniversary.
- They gave them away during the Otori week to top contest winners, and to selected members of the community whom Otori wanted to recognize for their contributions to Kingdom life.
- Cannot be drunk, much like N. O. Beer. Also like N. O. Beer, one of them has been consumed by Jick.
References
- The description includes a reference to the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster, a potent mixed drink from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. According to the titular book-within-a-book, "the effect of the Pan Galactic Gargle Blaster is like having your brains smashed out by a slice of lemon wrapped round a large gold brick".
- The number 42 also has special Hitchhiker's significance; according to the books, it is the answer to the Great Question of Life, the Universe and Everything.
- The feathers in the ingredient list is likely because the word "otori" is often translated from Japanese to English as "phoenix."
- Grenadine is the non-alcoholic red syrup used in making a Shirley Temple.
