Mediocrity

You feel lackluster.

Current tourist is progressing.... not high enough to do the quest, but pretty good stat-line (at least until that rust monster gave me the business.)  The problem is that he doesn't excel at anything.  18/14 strength... pretty good but not out of line for his level.  AC -7... meh... and that includes a 5 AC bump from offering to priests.  I haven't really found any great gear.  AoR in sokoban (which I had to wrestle off a stupid werewolf,) bag of holding in a shop, but no decent armor drops and no wishes anywhere.  Seriously, the best armor I've found was dwarvish mithril, and my short stint as a winter wolf cub destroyed both that and my t-shirt.

I have gotten two gifts by sacrificing.  First Cleaver (sigh... thank you so much The Lady) and then Vorpal Blade.  I need to level before I can improve longsword, so I can't hit squat with it.

So I progress.... pressing forward knowing that I'll be outclassed pretty quickly but too far along in the game to think about stopping.  I just soldier on.
