The first paragraph varies based on your experience as a Monster Nurturer.
Nurturer | First Paragraph |
---|---|
0 | You are forced to invent a few stories about these creatures, for lack of direct experience. Happily, your listener doesn't seem able to contradict you. [...] He has a lively fear of these things and he wouldn't switch places with you for the world. |
1 - 8 | You tell a few stories about the challenge of hatching these things, and the messes they make when first born. Your stock of anecdotes is not large, but it suffices for the length of one corridor. |
9 - 13 | You have hatched [...] enough of these creatures that you have a copious knowledge of their hatching, feeding, and training behaviour; you select just a few of the most lurid to regale the Warden [...] He turns a bit green, convinced but keen not to hear any more. |
16 - 55 | You have an encyclopaedic knowledge of Whitsun creatures – their various species, the distinctions in their character [...] You would be able to give an impromptu lecture at the Royal Society [...]; merely persuading one theriophobic Warden [...] presents no difficulty [...] |
