The Machine of Drunk

The Machine of Drunk

You knock on the door and a man with short, spiked blond hair opens it. He's wearing the weirdest costume you've seen tonight: a big metal codpiece shaped like an eagle. You're so surprised, you forget to yell "Trick or treat!"

He nods at you, winks, and says, "somos fantasmas en el mundo material."

"Um, sure we are," you say, trying to maintain eye contact.

"¡Es verdad, somos!" he says, insistently.

"Uh...claro que si?" you say, trying one of the few BorderSpeak phrases you know.

"¡Eso es! ¡Exactamente!" he says, and hands you a bottle of booze.

You acquire an item: Fantasma en la Máquina
