* While you can't drink more than one [[astral pilisner]] before getting falling-down drunk, just one still gives you over 110 adventures at level 11+, making the [[astral six-pack]] a good choice for turn-gen.

A Shrunken Adventurer Am I is the Fall 2023 special challenge path, introduced on August 15th, 2023. This path adds variant rules and restrictions to an ascension run. Its description in The Bureau of Reincarnation reads "You are so tiny."


For up to date information, see the Discussion Thread.

Restrictions

  • All monsters look really big to you.
  • You have a maximum food capacity of 2, and a maximum booze capacity of 1 (you become overdrunk at 2).
    • You can't use anything that cleans or expands the stomach or liver capacity.
    • You may only drink size 1 booze items:
You're too small to drink something so large.
  • Your base Muscle, Mysticality and Moxie are all limited to 1.
    • Gaining stat points in your mainstat still causes you to advance in level, but the stat remains at 1.

Divergences

  • Your adventure begins with "Jumbled in the Bungle."
  • Your Campsite is replaced with Your Campground From a Bug's Perspective.
  • Food and Booze items give 50x stats and 10x adventures.
  • Stat requirements on equipment do not apply, even very high-level equipment such as items found in Dreadsylvania.
  • Upon freeing King Ralph, every 1 fullness you had will be converted to 10 fullness, and every 1 drunkness you had will be converted to 10 drunkness.
    • This means if you free King Ralph while falling-down drunk at 2 drunkenness, you will still be falling-down drunk at 20 drunkenness after freeing him.

See The Council of Loathing/A Shrunken Adventurer Am I.

Strategy

  • Because your stats are so low, you can't rely on regular attacks, as both hit chance and damage will be very low.
    • If you have access to a June cleaver, remember that its attacks always hit. As an alternative, use skills that don't require you to attack, like Saucestorm.
    • Percentage-based stat buffs (like, say, philter of phorce) are nearly useless, because your stats are limited to 1. Absolute increases (like Mr. Accessaturday) are much more useful, and you can find some items that do this by adventuring in the areas in your campground.
  • Both stat gains and adventure gain from foods and booze are multiplied, and so items such as Mrs. Rush or red rocket will really help with experience gain.
