Smoking talon
This is a talon that must have fallen off of a bat out of hell. Or, possibly, it's all that remains of a bat who was flying out of hell not quite as fast as a bat out of hell ought to fly. There's definitely something otherworldly about it, and something batty, too. (In-game plural: smoking talons) |

History
Prior to the Pastamancer revamp on November 14, 2013, this item was used to establish a connection with a Bow Tie Bat, a Pasta Guardian. It gave the following messages when used:
- First use from inventory as a Pastamancer:
|
| You put on your smoking jacket and grip the smoking talon tightly. Then you shout, "Ow, Ampersand Exclamation Point Hash At Symbol!" and settle for tossing the white-hot talon from hand to hand. You concentrate to overcome the pain and send your consciousness on a journey through the astral realms.
After a brief burst of psychedelic color, your third eye perceives that your astral body is standing in a vast dark cave full of rustling and squeaking. "Um, is anybody there? Er, is there any other mind here?" you ask. The rustling noises get louder, and turn into flapping noises, and the swirling dark around you is alive with squeaking. "I was just wondering if any mind here would be interested in being vested into a new corporeal form," you say, but you still hear only squeaking and flapping. "Please," you say, "if you want to be reincarnated, give me a sign!" Something huge and dark flaps above your head, its leathery wings creaking. There's a distasteful grunting noise, and then a splatter of something entirely disgusting landing all over your noncorporeal form. "Ugh. I'll take that guano as a yes? You'll need a name. Let's call you..." You glance around, hoping for some inspiration. "How about... <name> |
- Subsequent uses as a Pastamancer:
|
|
| Using this item will sever your connection with <name>. Are you sure you want to do this? |
- Otherwise:
|
|
| You have no idea what to do with this thing. |
References
- The "Ampersand Exclamation Point Hash At Symbol" part of the use text refers to a method used by comic strips and other written media to signify that someone is cursing, without actually showing the inappropriate language (though it would be written &!#@, not as words).
