[] Debian Armorand aGNOMEas my companion. I often equip theTor Browser Cloak of Invisibility. If slain, I will drop aLocked KeePassXC Database Chest. After completing the missionRevive bricked Linux system, I was awarded with the[] Ego Potion. When drunk, it boosts all stats temporarily during a battle.Sorry to be pedantic, but if you can revive it then it wasn’t really bricked. Depending on how bad it was it was still worth the [Rare] ego item 🧑🌾

Common Debian Swirl
Adds stability buff but forces user to wait 4 turns before enhancing any item, weapon or spell.
You need the Flatpak buff. It allows you to avoid the 4 turn wait time.
But it reduces your initiative by 4 in the first combat round, and doubles the weight of all enhanced items.Doesn’t work well with my play style, and some of those Flatpak expansion sets are officially licensed.
As consumable ice cream, of course 𖦹°‧🍨🍦🍧🍨𖦹°‧

Now the formatting is fixed

Immutable Distro - When making a roll, if the previous roll did not use this feature, you may use the dice value of the last roll you made.
Highly Configurable - You can swap one piece of equipment per turn as a free action.
Flake or Vanilla? - You must succeed on a DC 20 WIS save once every hour or be compelled to spend that hour respeccing your equipment loadout and retraining your skills, in an attempt to achieve the elusive state known as “best practice”.
Guess I’ll be chaotic evil and chase worst practices instead /ᐠ >ヮ<マ
