An oxycore adventurer is me!

lederhosenHave just finished a hardcore oxygenarian ascension on KoL. Which will probably mean very little to most of you, but it vouches for my bloody-mindedness... especially since I had no HC-permanent skills going into the run.
I was really hoping to finish it two days earlier, so I could start my new run on a Muscle day and reap the benefits of my Breathetastic! Premium Canned Air right away, but I couldn't quite manage it... I'd saved up my adventures and powered through the whole of the Airship, Castle, and Hole in the Sky the day before, getting from level 9 to 11 in the process (assisted by the Canadian Mind-Control Device). I started the second Muscle day with 59 adventures. Unfortunately, getting to the Naughty Sorceress required three items I didn't yet have - a ruby 'W', a digital key, and sonar-in-a-biscuit - and the RNG was spiteful; even rearranging my equipment for maximum item drops didn't do much good. I managed to get the key and the sonar-in-a-biscuit, but ran out of adventures yesterday still hunting for the 'W'. Managed to pick it up today, though, and walloped the Naughty Sorceress with the aid of my trusty cocoabo, Lindt, while wearing the Furry Suit.
...I really am a sad, sad geek :-)
(I donated for the server and got myself a Wild Hare, which is quite a neat familiar and saw me through much of the run. I named it 'Gothbunny', but since it now weighs 20 pounds I've renamed it to 'LonGears'.)
(And yes, all that stuff really is in the game. At the end of this coming run I should have all the pieces to build myself a Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot familiar, which should be exceedingly useful...)
