---

• Message before having the level requirement of the bitchin' meatcar quest, or the first time you visit if you completed the quest before the guild changes were made:

You approach the large oak crate, and peer into the slot on the side. To your surprise, a pair of eyes blink at you from within.

"Oh, hello," says a voice from the crate. "I'm Blaine. And before you ask, I'm locked in here for one of my final tests as a fully-cerfitied Mysticologist. I'm supposed to magic my way out of it, you see. Can't quite seem to get it, but I'm sure I'll have it any day now.

Just between you and me, though, it's a real pain, and that is the truth."

My Other Car Is Made of Meat

• Message on initial visit:

You ask Blaine about the meatcar.

You see his eyes widen behind the slot in his crate.

"Oh, man, the meatcar! I totally forgot. I left it parked over by Degrassi Knoll... I was gonna go back and get it, but, well, y'know... the crate and all.

The gnolls have probably stripped it for parts by now, anyway. Here's a list of what you'll need to build a new one."

You acquire Degrassi Knoll shopping lists

• Message on subsequent visits:

"Any luck with the car? Once you've got all of the parts, you can use meat paste to put them together."

• Message after having built the bitchin' meatcar:

"You rebuilt the meatcar? Thanks a lot! Sounds to me like you could use a vacation after that. Shove your map through the slot here, and I'll give you directions to the beach.

South of the Border is a nice place to relax, but there's also a travel agency down there if you want to go somewhere a little more exotic."

• Message after having built the bitchin' meatcar and talked to him at least once before:

You knock on the side of the crate, and ask "S'alright?"

A voice inside mutters "S'alright."

[Players Name] and [Familiars Name] Go To White Citadel

• Message (quest name/level 7):

You hear Blaine calling you from inside his crate, and bend down to the slot in the side. "Hey, listen, can you do me a favor? I've been stuck in here for a pretty long time, with nothing to eat but dry noodles. I made a take-out order with the White Citadel near Whitey's Grove, but obviously I'm not able to go pick it up. If you go get it for me, I'll pay you back, okay?"

• Message on subsequent visits:

"Did you get my food yet? Please hurry, I don't think extreme weakness brought on by malnutrition is increasing my chances of magicing my way out of this crate, you know? The White Citadel is near Whitey's Grove, in the Distant Woods."

• Message upon quest completion:

You push the burger and fries through the slot in the crate, and listen with slight nausea to the sound of Blaine cramming them in his face as quickly as possible. "Ahhh. Man, that hit the spot. Listen, um, I haven't got any meat in here to pay you with, but you can have this rabbit's foot keychain I've been sucking on to try and get a little protein. Don't worry, I've dried it off."

You acquire lucky rabbits' feet
