April Shower may be installed in your Clan VIP Lounge by using a Clan shower from the Mr. Store for 3 Mr. Accessories.

When "Used"

  • Hot
You set the dial to 'No, seriously, this is way too hot.'
MPYou gain ? Mana Points.
The water seems to bubble as it hits your skin. Y'know, maybe that was a little too hot, after all. Still, yay bubbles!
or
After a brief period of panic while your skin adjusts to the bubblin' hot water, you relax and let your mind waft away with the steam. Hey, you know what? Dude! It's so obvious! Why didn't you ever think of it before?
You have discovered a new recipe: random Amazing Idea
  • Warm
You like your showers like you like your women (or men, or whatever -- look, just go with it): hot and in the shower with you. The blast of steamy water relaxes your muscles and gets them ready to absorb more strengthliness.
You acquire an effect: Muscle Unbound
(duration: 50 Adventures)
  • Lukewarm
You set the dial to 'lukewarm' (well, it look warm from here!). The water's so tepid it's like being in a very damp sensory-deprivation chamber. Your mind expands as your fingers get pruny.
You acquire an effect: Thaumodynamic
(duration: 50 Adventures)
  • Cool
Since there are no settings for 'hip' or 'groovy,' you set the dial to 'cool,' and let your goosebumps absorb all the awesomeness that pours from the showerhead.
You acquire an effect: So Fresh and So Clean
(duration: 50 Adventures)
  • Cold
You turn on the tap, but instead of water, shards of frosty double-ice clunk out of the shower head. What kind of a nutcase would design a shower where that's even possible?
You acquire 3−5 shards of double-ice
  • If you have already taken a shower:
You've already had a shower today. On the advice of your psychiatrist, you no longer allow yourself more than one a day.

Notes

  • Taking a hot shower has a chance of teaching you an "Amazing Ideas" recipe.

Reference

  • This item refers to the old saying about "April showers bring May flowers."
  • This item might be a reference to "Bloody Stupid" Johnson from Terry Pratchett's Discworld who invented a similar shower, the "Patent 'Typhoon' Superior Indoor Ablutorium with Automatic Soap Dish".
