You create a side room for your minions to hang out it, concealing the door. It is abstractly smaller, to balance the price of the room. (-10 gold)

Jina and Dana look pleased at their new names; Sam frowns but accepts their given name.
Klingle-Klangle, in a mixture of fear of destruction and pleasure from receiving both an item and a name, dances vigorously on instruction. His form is lacking, and after only a few minutes he has to stop to catch his breath. (-2 gold)
The jingly boots were hilarious.

Make a sign that says "Free treasure inside, just some goblins to deal with." and put it out front. We should also get a treasure painting that shows a pretty good amount of teasure, like a hoard sized pile.
You lack the ability to create outside of your dungeon. You instead create the sign inside, and have Jina place it outside. (-1 gold)
You also create a painting of a treasure hoard. (-1 gold)

After Jina returns, you turn her around and tell her to advertise the facilities, similarly to the sign. Jina embarks on this quest.
Dana looks lonely. Sam looks bored.

You spend all remaining gold on three empty chests, one of which having a paralysis dart trap. (-12 gold)
You are completely out of gold...
You have no way of contacting either goblins on their missions. Your realm of influence is limited to the dungeon, so you cannot send them telepathic messages.

Being broke is a big problem, huh? You expect ZOK to return soon, so gold should be less of a problem.
(Note: you have gained 1 fame)

so here's what i'm thinking, given that we can't leave or even see anything outside of the dungeon: it's not so much that we OWN a dungeon as much as we ARE a dungeon
RE: You (plural) own a dungeon! - Arcanuse - 01-28-2017
Once we have enough funding for a proper dungeon core we can start looking around outside. Right now, that one gold coin would be lucky to buy a used dungeon core (Pebble sized).
Although, that might be enough to look right outside the front door.

Exchange fame for pocket lint.

You turn the 1 fame into 100 pocket lint. That's a lot of pocket lint!

Whoops, if only you hadn't converted your only fame into pocket lint.
Yes, cash is still a problem. Sam suggests working all of the goblins and the kobold in a mine. Dana suggests cutting off Sam's wings and selling them.

Dana, Sam, and Klingle-Klangle all move into the hangout room. It provides decent entertainment to the ensemble when Klingle-Klangle is climbing down from the ceiling, bells jingling.
As if like magic, ZOK returns. He has gained 4 levels since he left, and has brought with him 8 apples and 2 pitiful gold pieces.
"I tried to attack the town, but they were too strong! A dozen big human villagers were kicking me and prodding me and it was hard just to escape. After that, I've been lurking around the outskirts of their farms, stealing apples from an orchard. I couldn't return with nothing.... Please forgive me for this failure!"
Sama and Dana peak out from the Minion Hangout.

Pat ZOK on the back and tell him to keep his chin up, he tried his best and that's what counts.
Though he did fail and failures need to be punished, have klingle-klangle kick him a few times.

Allas even with some level difference and world experience, roof kraken still a kraken and a goblin still just a goblin.
Still would e a shame to waste a perfectly good goblin soul with no payoff
... On the other hand failure and poor performances must be punished....

You try to do this, but it seems you can't convert apples into fame. You then try to go directly from apples to pocket lint, but it also fails!
I guess apples aren't a valid currency..?

You pat ZOK on the back, and he looks extremely uncomfortable and guilty. Then you tell Klingle-klangle to kick him a few times.
This suprises ZOK more than it hurts him, but he almost seems pleased to be punished. In fact, it hurts Klingle-klangle more than ZOK- the bells ring as they bruise the pair.
Klingle-klangle gains a level.

>Do you people need food? You may have 1 apple each if you do.
ZOK nods, shaking ever so slightly. No one else notices.
Klingle-klangle and Dana both take an apple and begin to eat. ZOK declines and Sam makes some snarky comment about eating physical matter to be for lower beings.
Jeremie clicks loudly, and Sam takes it back.

ZOK looks even more ashamed, and Dana carefully examines their toes. Sam snickers.

Sam drinks a bit of ZOK's essence, and gains a level! ZOK looks tired.
Sam isn't quite sure what you want him to do, but can only cast basic fire magic at this time.

After a chow session, your advertising pays off. Jina is thrown into the main room, bleeding and terrified. Behind her enter four armed ruffians, a cloaked figure and a bigger, tougher ruffian (also armed).
"So, this is the place?" says the bigger ruffian.
"Yes boss, this is where they were." says one of the smaller fry.
"Looks easy." The big ruffian eyes the three chests. "This will be a cash-in today. You might even pay off your debt."
He directs this at the hooded figure, who looks down nervously.
Three of the smaller ruffians charge forward, one hangs back with the cloaked figure, who has begun to chant. Boss ruffian slowly advances, using the smaller grunts as meat-shields.
The ruffians seem wary of above.

Have your minions offer the intruders some apples. They must be hungry after their long journey. Look, there's enough for all of them!
Then have Jeremie grab any intruders that go for the apples.

I detect a potential recruit. We should try to keep the Mage alive, or get him to turn when the big guy is not right next to him.
