Sushi

From TheKolWiki

Sushi refers to a variety of foods created using a sushi-rolling mat, which is obtained from Big Brother at The Sea Monkee Castle.

Upon using the mat, the player is presented with a list of all sushi ingredients in inventory and a list of possible sushi to make. Sushi is rolled and eaten immediately. Finished sushi do not exist as items in the inventory.

Nigiri

Roll white rice with one of the following types of fish meat:

Sushi	Fish meat	Adventures	Stat Gains	Fullness	Base Turns of Fishy
beefy nigiri	beefy fish meat	4-8	8-16 Strongness	2	20
glistening nigiri	glistening fish meat	4-8	8-16 Enchantedness	2	20
slick nigiri	slick fish meat	4-8	8-16 Roguishness	2	20

Maki

Roll white rice and seaweed with one of the following types of fish meat:

Sushi	Fish meat	Adventures	Stat Gains	Fullness	Base Turns of Fishy
beefy maki	beefy fish meat	6-12	8-16 Strongness	3	45
glistening maki	glistening fish meat	6-12	8-16 Enchantedness	3	45
slick maki	slick fish meat	6-12	8-16 Roguishness	3	45

Topping

Maki may be garnished with one topping:

• dragonfish caviar: Adds 5 turns of Fishy.

  "The caviar on top makes it taste extra fishy."

  • When eating any maki topped with dragonfish caviar, there is a chance of obtaining a magic dragonfish fry:

    "You burp, and a little fish swims out of your mouth. Looks like one of those dragonfish eggs was fertilized!"

    You acquire an item: magic dragonfish fry

• sea salt crystal: Adds 10 turns of Salty Dogs.

  "Ooh, salty. It goes straight to your feet."

• eel sauce: Adds 3 adventures

  "Mmm. The eel sauce makes it especially satisfying."

Additional Filling

Maki may be augmented with an additional filling:

• sea avocado: Adds 3 adventures and 20-30 Roguishness.
• sea carrot: Adds 3 adventures and 20-30 Enchantedness.
• sea cucumber: Adds 3 adventures and 20-30 Strongness.
• sea radish: Adds 3 adventures, 20-30 Strongness, 20-30 Enchantedness, and 20-30 Roguishness.

Naming

When eaten, the consumption message names the sushi according to its contents.

"You eat the <sushi name>."

Without additional fillings, they are simply called beefy, glistening or slick maki, even when topped with sea salt, eel sauce, or dragonfish caviar.

When augmented with additional filling, the sushi is given a new, descriptive name:

Toppings add an adjective before these descriptive roll names: "magical" for dragonfish caviar, "salty" for sea salt, and "electric" for eel sauce.

Quality

If you remember your food quality distinctions, nigiri is between good and awesome, while maki is between awesome and EPIC.

Notes

• Sushi does not gain extra adventures from Got Milk, munchies pills, Song of the Glorious Lunch, nor The Opossum.
• The 3 types of nigiri show up in the player's consumption history, but display no description if the player clicks their names.
• The 60 possible combinations of maki only show up in the player's consumption history as the 3 base types of maki (beefy, glistening, or slick maki). These also display no description if the player clicks their names.
• Having a Warm Belly adds 10 extra turns of Fishy whenever you consume sushi or fish meat.
• Attempting to make a sushi you don't have the proper ingredients for results in the message:

  You don't have the right stuff to make that kind of sushi. Or a New Kids on the Block album.

• Attempting to make an invalid sushi type results in the message:

  That ain't no kind of sushi I ever heard of. Do they speak English in that kind of sushi?

• Attempting to make a sushi when you are too full results in the message:

  That looks good, but you're way too full to eat it right now.
