You read it right. The Boner Challenge. Boot up LIVAN, and enter Wizard Mode. You are allowed to fully equip yourself with non-artifact equipment, your stats must remain the same. You are required to turn all of your armor, excluding your cloak, into bone (Yes, bone. Not ommel.). You may use a weapon made of bone, two if needed. You are not allowed to use any other items besides items made of bone-like material. Your character must be alligned with evil gods. You may give yourself one Wand of Necromancy. Once every 12 hours, in game, you are allowed to summon a undead creature, and befriend it. You are /required/ to pick up every bone and skull you come across. What else you do, is your choice, as long as you do an ending... And yes. Any ending is allowed. Just follow the instructions.


And no cheating to raise your stats!

By artifact equipment, do you mean just named items?

Named Items aren't allowed.

Probably things like Turox, Vermis, Neerc Se'ulb, and such. So yes, named items are artifacts, and they are not allowed.

I'm wanting to know specific items, e.g. anything un-named that is considered an artifact

4zb4, I'm fairly sure there's no reason to be picky about these rules. If we were to be picky about the rules, then I'd have to point out the fact that he didn't specify if cheating death is allowed, or artificial limbs not to mention, death counts as an ending. Just wing it, he simply wants us to play IVAN.

But I didn't say anything...

Oops, very tired when I wrote that, my apologies. Couldn't have woke up more than 10 minutes before I wrote that, sorry.
