Not-a-pipe

not-a-pipe

You're not entirely sure what this is -- it was the prize for an absurdist joke-telling competition. All the absurdists would tell you is "this is not a pipe," which isn't very useful. I mean, it's clearly not a food processor, either.

Uh, it's probably not a food processor, either.

When Used

You do not light the not-a-pipe, and you proceed to do something with it that is not smoking. Whatever it is, it's very refreshing, and gives you the feeling that your head has been replaced with either a window or a giant apple.

You gain 4-6-10-12? Adventures.

You gain 20-30 Strengthliness. You gain 20-30 Wizardliness. You gain 20-30 Roguishness.

(You gain 4 Spleen.)

References

• This item refers to Magritte's painting, The Treachery of Images. The painting includes the inscription, "Ceci n'est pas une pipe," which is French for, "This is not a pipe".
• The French pronunciation of "pipe" is the same as the English pronunciation of "peep" (the sound made by juvenile birds), thereby resulting in a pun: "not a peep" is an idiomatic expression meaning "be quiet" -- roughly, "You are not to emit even the smallest sound".
