Throne Room

The Throne Room is in The Nearby Plains inside Cobb's Knob. The King is very suspicious and will only allow the girls of his harem, and his soldiers (as long as they have food) to enter.

• If you enter without the complete Knob Goblin Harem Girl Disguise or Knob Goblin Elite Guard Uniform:

You knock on the throne room door. The Goblin King answers, looks you up and down, and says "You are neither a guard with a cake, nor one of my harem girls."

Apparently not being either of those two things is sufficient cause for a beating, because that's what he gives you, before tossing you out into the hallway and slamming the throne room door.

Looks like you're gonna need to figure out a way to get him to let his guard down a little.

You lose 10 hit points.

• If you enter with the complete harem disguise but without the effect from Knob Goblin perfume:

The Goblin King looks at you, and allows you to approach him. As you near him, his nose wrinkles.

"You look like one of my harem girls, but you don't smell like one. What manner of treachery is this?"

He smacks you about the head and neck, and has his guards escort you out of the Knob.

You lose 10 hit points.

• If you enter with the complete elite guard disguise but without the Knob cake:

The Goblin King answers the door and sees your outfit. His face lights up. "My cake!" he exclaims.

His delight is replaced with anger as he realizes that you haven't brought him a cake. Then your face is replaced by a face that has just been punched by an angry, hungry Goblin King. The throne room door slams shut.

You lose 10 hit points.

• If you enter with the complete harem disguise with the effect from Knob Goblin perfume or if you enter with the complete guard disguise with the Knob cake:

Notes

• Attempting to enter the King's Chamber without the Knob Goblin Harem Girl Disguise or the Knob Goblin Elite Guard Uniform does not cost an adventure.
• Some time before March 6, 2024, the "unprepared" text for the Goblin King changed. It used to be:

  The Goblin King looks you over, gives you a sound thumping, and kicks you out of the Knob. You'll have to figure out a way to get him to let his guard down...
