Description

Sitting at the side of the road, holding a cardboard sign asking for moolah, is one of the most dodgy-looking beggars you've ever seen, and that's saying something. He doesn't appear to have had a change of clothes in years, and the ones he's wearing look as though they're being held together by his own congealed bodily fluids. He's muttering to himself, but you can't really make out what he's saying, other than to know it involves sailors, porcupines and duct tape. That's probably more than you need to know, strictly speaking.

As you try to pass him by, he grabs you and asks you for some spare moolah to buy, "a bus ticket to visit his sick mother in Farg." Yeah, right.

Combat Messages

Jump Message

• You feel sorry for the guy, but, well, you don't really carry "spare" moolah, only moolah for which you actually have plans, none of which involve donations to charity right now, thanks very much and... You know, rather than trying to explain this to him, you decide it's probably easier just to beat him up. You get the jump.

Successful Attack:

Missed Attack:

• He begins to attack, but is distracted by some guy with a camera, a sandwich and a spiel about something called "the inner-nets."
