Rough Start

Mokuba, Level 5 Dwarf Barbarian

So, I've been chugging away for a few days now. I've been mostly killing skeletons, a giant spider here or there. Just earlier today I killed my first two giant dust mites. I've even picked up a spare sword, which is good since my first one has been worn down to about as sharp as my aunt Greta's face (not counting her nose.) The only problem is that I've already worn the new one down just as much... and I've lost my boots, my shirt, my sleeves, and my pantaloons. They've all been worn down to tatters.

I've only today made enough money to buy replacements, and that's just because one skeleton dropped a jade sailor's ring. Made me a tidy 19 coppers... just enough to get a new sword and a nifty leather jerkin.

I made level 5 today and learned my Rage skill. Haven't tried it out yet, however. Sucky thing is, I can now use heavy armors, and that crap ass leather and cloth number cost me everything I own. Hate to be a newb, but I'm tempted to start panhandling. I'm still a bit nervous about taking on bats. I have traumatic memories of being level 1. Still haven't walked more than three hundred keplans from the city gates.

Oh yeah, and I'm really sick of finding magic scrolls that I can neither use nor sell!
