Euclid is the | Euclid is a [[mutated plant|sapient mutated plant]] member of the [[Barathrumites]] faction and an inhabitant of {{favilink|Grit Gate}}, found within [[Barathrum's Study]].{{File Ref|file=Barathrums_Study|type=.rpm}} According to {{favilink|Barathrum the Old}}, Euclid is a "prattleplant". | ||
== Character == | |||
Euclid is a prattleplant, a type of vine that can store whatever it hears in its "neuroot network". Euclid can then mimic the sounds it's heard by flicking its leaves against one another. However, most of what it produces is "gibberish". | |||
Barathrum refers to Euclid as his "dear friend", and says that Euclid is "old, perhaps older than [he is]"; if this is to be believed, Euclid may be at least 1,000 years old. | |||
== Combat == | |||
Euclid begins neutral to the player, but will become hostile if the player attacks it or any members of the Barathrumites in view of it. It can also become hostile if the player's [[reputation]] with the Barathrumites falls low enough. | |||
Euclid has no weaponry of any kind, and will attack with its "manipulators", which are equivalent to {{favilink|fist|plural}}. Otherwise, it has only one ability in the form of the [[Berate]] skill, which it can use to [[shamed|shame]] a target. | |||
Euclid always comes equipped with a {{favilink|clay pot}}, which it will wear on its [[List of Body Parts#Roots|roots]]. This will grant it an additional {{AV}}3 [[AV]].{{File Ref|file=ObjectBlueprints}} | |||
== Conversations == | |||
Euclid does not have set dialogue, and instead will generate a random passage via [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chain/ Markov chain] whenever spoken to, much like how the passages of {{qud text|&Ywhite-titled}} [[books]] are generated. | |||
The following is an example of what Euclid's dialogue might look like: | |||
{{Qud dialogue|text=&w*thip thip thip thip* | |||
I stood by his heir Wysterwort DCXLIX. It was the jewelers who bartered the thing from Priam's grieving sister. Each weapon has a long, slender chrome barrel. It is possible to begin with mutation scores of your eye. | |||
