Crazy hobo notebook

crazy hobo notebook

You got this notebook off of a wino who'd been trapped in Lord Spookyraven's cellar for Grod knows how long. It appears to be a rough dictionary of sorts, for hobo glyphs. You know the sort of thing -- the little marks that hobos draw on walls to identify places where you can get a free handout, or to warn about muggers, or so forth.

Except the ones in this notebook appear to be things like "The Formless One approaches", or "beware of nightgaunts", or "in praise of the soul eater". Also they kind of writhe when you look at them, and it makes you a little uncomfortable.

When Used

• When used in combat:

You find a piece of chalk and scratch out one of the glyphs from that crazy notebook. As you do so, the chalk turns black, and the notebook page you were copying catches fire. You throw the book away and carry on regardless, just managing to finish the glyph before your chalk transmutes entirely into oily sludge. You're left with a writhing sigil on the ground, and a feeling like when you eat something rotten, except you can taste it with your entire body.

• On that round and subsequent rounds, including future combats in the zone for that day:

He accidentally breathes in some fumes from that creepy hobo glyph you drew, and has a spasm of wet, wracking coughs to the tune of 6-7 damage.

or
