“Well, I should go. I want to keep studying up on those handsigns.”
“Certainly. I’m sure you’ll pick them up quickly.”
“Thank you again for this fine gift, Ricki.”
“No problem! I’ll let you know when dinner’s ready.”
“Always full of surprises, that one.”
“Such a kind gesture.”
“…Even if the wine WAS dishwater.”
Amadeusz gained the Minimum Acceptable Level of Comfort ability.
Holy cow that’s going to be a lot of bonus HP. How many primary manor rooms have we renovated now?
Also hello, long time reader, first time commenter 😀
Sadly only two, the library and the kitchen, and that’s confirmed on discord. That suggests the other rooms that count for this member of the nobility will be the livingroom and foyer.
Hello longtime reader!
By “primary”, I’m pretty sure it means kitchen, foyer, library and living room. So 2.
Looks like Ama will get to enjoy his room full time.
Here is the description text of Amadeusz’s new Ability (for convenience):
Minimum Acceptable Level of Comfort: Gain +1 bonus HP at the start of each dungeon per primary manor room renovated.
Welcome to LSN Python-code’s Ranting Circus,buddy….we’ve got a spider hivemind that parrots the characters,big walls of text,& the worst jokes east of Nerf Now!!
I’ve noticed that some of the commenters from the first 5 Dungeons don’t seem to be around,I at first thought you were one of them just by you having a profile picture.
As the other 3 guys here pointed out,this ability gives AT MAX +4HP,& we need maybe 80 more coins to get the full benefits from it,by getting Foyer & Living Room.

RICKI: “Well, I should go. I want to keep studying up on those handsigns.”
AMADEUSZ: “Certainly. I’m sure you’ll pick them up quickly.”
“Thank you again for this fine gift, Ricki.”
RICKI: “No problem! I’ll let you know when dinner’s ready.”
AMADEUSZ: “Always full of surprises, that one.”
“Such a kind gesture.”
“…Even if the wine WAS dishwater.”
Many alcoholic drinks are just drunk to get…well…drunk.I’m sure someone would’ve liked that wine.
Just take Lohk,who eats rats & moldy cheese.Or Tanya,who eats reanimated corpses.
I’ll assume that Tim is the “repost the dialogue in the comments” guy from the comic’s early days,that you ended ip replacing?
Did your spider hivemind eat him?Is that why he’s not around?
… No?
A very convincing argument.
Bon apetit,sir(s).
LOL, that last frame.
Well I’m sure that SOMEBODY is going to be disappointed that we didn’t get any backstory from Amadeusz, who is still just as sketchy as he’s always been even if he will now start dungeons with more HP.
(Sketchy: Prevents accumulation of bond with other characters when taken to a dungeon.)
Hello there.I’m somebody.
Amy definetly comes from some upper-class place.Maybe he met Kamau while Kamau was still a high-ranking soldier?
Atleast now we have another character who is 50% as efficient at tanking as Kam.
So,next page will be Paws,or are we going to get interrupted by sime contrived coincidence?
He’s going to end up with more hp than Kamau xD
Was hoping the no backstory thing was another fake-out though 🙁
The “at start of dungeon” phrasing is a little odd, given that the character sheet seems to have already been updated. Amadeusz is up from 10 HP to 13, 1 from his room and 2 from the Kitchen and Library. That puts him on par with Drider Lara, and the two remaining primary rooms (Foyer and Living Room) will put him at 15, which is where Kamau started before his room.
Maybe the “bonus” part means those HP can’t heal during a dungeon.
Unless Amadeusz already had 12 HP, I’ve lost track of stats lately.
I noticed that Amadeusz HP is now on par with Drider Lara and I don’t remember him being that tough during the Poisoned Well so I think you’re right about him just going from 10 to 13. This actually highlights an issue for people who are trying to read through the archive in the future. I’ve discovered that it is difficult to find what the characters looked like at some historical point in time, such as at the beginning of one of the previous dungeons. When the next dungeon begins I’ll try to remember to copy the starting stats and equipment of all of the characters that we are bringing into a comment. That will make it easier in the future for anyone new who is trying to go through the archive to make sense of what happened in that dungeon.
As of right now (just after https://dungeoneyes.com/intermission-12-page-12/ ), I copied what Amadeusz looks like below. We’ll see how well this works but if it looks good then this might make a convenient template for pasting what he looks like into a comment at the beginning of the next dungeon we take him into:

I’d already added the +1 base HP from his room, but it looks like I did add a superfluous bonus HP at some point (probably forgot I added the new point and then added it a second time). He started with 11 and is now at 12. Bonus HP will be tracked with orange hearts next time he enters a dungeon.
I think Amadeusz has a hidden ability whitch lets him turn his eyebrows invisible.
[[check the previous page]]
Awww, he waited to pour it out untill after Ricki has left!
He cares <3
Amadeusz, don’t waste wine. Go dog form and lick up what you just spilled.
We can just wait till we buy the booze still,if you’re that hung up about it.
Maybe Botanya will like getting that Wine poured in her flower garden.
