The Bat Hole

The Council of Loathing sends you on a quest to The Bat Hole in The Nearby Plains to defeat the Boss Bat. In order to adventure beyond the Entryway, you must have Stench Resistance. Fortunately, a Pine-Fresh air freshener does the trick, and it, not coincidentally, drops in the Entryway. The Entryway leads into Guano Junction. Each of the other three areas is initially locked. Knocking down walls will first unlock the Batrat and Ratbat Burrow, then the Beanbat Chamber, and finally the Boss Bat's Lair last. Ways to knock down a wall currently include:

• Killing a Screambat - Occurs every 8 turns spent throughout the middle 3 zones (Guano Junction, B&R Burrow, and Beanbat Chamber); can also be copied/faxed/wished/reminisced
• Using a sonar-in-a-biscuit - Dropped by (non-Scream)bats in the middle 3 zones, at base rates of 10-15%
• Using a snow shovel - Created by Winter Gardening (4 snow berries + 1 ice harvest)
• Casting Fire Extinguisher: Constricted Blast - Available with the industrial fire extinguisher equipped, once per ascension

If you have less than 13 of your main stat, you will see:

You should not be here.

(You must have at least 13 Main Stat to adventure here.)

When entering the hole, one will find:

• Entryway (contains albino bats needed for The Bounty Hunter)
• Guano Junction
• Batrat and Ratbat Burrow
• Beanbat Chamber
• The Boss Bat's Lair

When entering as Actually Ed the Undying:

As you step into the entryway of the Bat Hole, you hear the shrill squeaking of a large bat giving orders to its subordinates. It's been a long time since you had any dealings with Chiroth, the bat-headed god of… well, just bats now that you think of it… and therefore your grasp of the bat language is a little rusty, but as far as you can make out, it's saying something like: "Rebuild the barricades! Repel all intruders! We -- I mean, I, the Boss Bat, who is totally not dead and still in charge of everything, command it!"
