I hate to ask this kind of question, but due to the nature of Trench I don't think anyone can really blame me.

What are our weapon options here? Where do I go or who do I need to speak with? Or is this more of a "figure it out for yourself" kind of situation?

Figure I'd check before I make any assumptions.

Can't rely on this bear forever that's been following me around.

Oh, oh, oh!

Pick me, pick me!

I make weapons and stuff! The real question is what sort of weapon would you like? Because the weapons from my world aren't everyone's cup of tea around here.

For example. I use a big old scythe with a sniper rifle built into it. If something like that isn't something you're interested in, I can do the a close range or long range weapon separately.

[doghouses]

That certainly sounds a bit flashier than I'm used to, but I respect your enthusiasm.

I can handle a typical revolver or glock just fine, but I think I'm more comfortable with a shotgun. I also made use of a pipe I found and a full length emergency hammer once, but I'd probably like something more practical than that.

Does that help?

[onekindsoul]

Why thank you! I get it's a lot to dump on someone all at once.

Yeah- I think I make something work with that!

Honestly if you're most comfortable with a shotgun why don't we start with that. If you're interested in something that can convert my weapon. I could probably design one that could double as a spear. It's not quite a hammer but I'll help keep things off you better than just a pipe?

What's wrong with a bear? That's a badass weapon. You can do so much damage even with just a regular one.

[doghouses]

Sure, but he's not a projectile weapon. Besides, if I had a weapon, then we could be a unit.

Honestly, that's kind of cool. I don't even know why this bear listens to me, but I'm not about to complain.

[eudaimonikos]

Give him a gun.

[DUH!!!!!]

It's probably your Omen.
I think people say they're connected to your soul. Which doesn't make a lot of sense, because I've got one, but they're a thing.

what does the bear think

it got a name

[doghouses]

I'm pretty sure he's thinking about food, but I admit that I am not fluent in bear.

I guess I should have one for him, shouldn't I? I'll have to think about it.

[strongroots]

my first thought wouldnt be to talk to a bear either

but if hes following you, sure

i dont call my omen anything either but 'bear' is a cool name already

There are a few options depending on what you're looking for. Prufrock has the most weapon sellers but I know of a couple hidden away in Willful Machine. They can get pretty pricey, though. I don't know how much you have to trade yet.

If you need a handgun, I have an extra one you can borrow until you find something, though. Plenty of ammo, too.

[doghouses]

It's probably going to take a bit for me to figure out this trade and barter system. Not that I'm complaining, mind you, but the economy isn't exactly what I was expecting.

You sure about that? I'd rather you have everything you need to look after yourself.

I can weaponize just about anything you put in font of me if you give me a little time. I'm easy enough to pay if you're good with a hammer, I've got a house I'm in the middle of trying to make presentable.

[doghouses]

Seems like we've got a number of inventive people here. Anyway, I'm no stranger to house ownership, so if you need something fixed I'm sure I could help in some way.

There are plenty of people here who can make you weapons. The question I have is how proficient you are in wielding one. You will do no one any good if you end up shooting your own foot off.

[doghouses]

I don't know, are you going to fine me if I'm not proficient? Are you some kind of enforcer or something?

well today is UR LUCKY DAY!
ure talking to one of the best engineers of zaun.
except we're not in zaun but in trench.

STILL COUNTS.

im in the middle of starting my own business. found an abandon building that i will shape up for all of ur weapon needs.

bbbuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut since it wont be open for a lil while, im kinda working from my treehouse. and outside. in the yard. with a table. and it gets rly cold out here let me tell u.

what kind of weapon are we talking here? my specialties are: pistols, gas bombs, smoke bombs, grenades, machine guns, and rocket launchers.

another neat thing i do is turn every day toys or knick knacks into weapons for disguise purposes.

[doghouses]

You're all plenty more handy with this kind of thing than I could be. I'm impressed. Do you want a sweater or something for the chill?

Anyway, a pistol probably isn't a terrible idea, but also ideally a shotgun would be nice. I wouldn't feel like I could make use of your explosives, unfortunately.

I see Ruby already found you.

She's a pretty good resource, actually. But, there's a lot of 18th century-style weapons, if that makes sense? Victorian times.


... Bear?

[doghouses]

Unfortunately, I'm a 21st century guy, so I probably couldn't make use of those kinds of weapons.

Bear. A very beary kind of bear. I'm told it's an Omen?

[chessboardturn]

Pretty sure you have to make your own.

I had my sword when I showed up though, so it's a toss-up?

[doghouses]

Kind of unfortunately when I don't really have those skills. Anyone who says the pen is mightier than the sword hasn't been in a real dangerous situation, and I'm saying that as a writer.

i've got a bunch of guns that came with me from the last place we were in.
i could maybe part with one or two for a price.

[doghouses]

Interesting.

What would your price be?
