Happy Mother's Day to all mothers out there!

Personally, I don't have a mother. I was created in a vat by an evil wizard.

Wait—does... does that make @evilwizard my mother?

stomach feels kinda weird

I hath returned from nearby heathers full of herbs and all other sorts of ingredients necessary for my entirely trustworthy remedies! It'll be wonderous to wander around such a town as Farnham once more

Brother does not simmer his potions, foolish indeed.

Blessings on ye

@unexpectedly-wizardposting: Analyze the controls, see if you can release the poor soul without danger to yourself

Uh... the "poor soul"?

I mean, okay, yeah, I've met two people in this tower who turned out to be okay and became my traveling companions, but that doesn't mean everyone in this tower is friendly or a potential ally. I have no idea what it is that's in that energy cylinder. For all I know, it's in there for everyone's safety and if it's released it'll go on a violent rampage.

Still... I don't actually know that, and it is in a very confined space which definitely doesn't look comfortable, and I guess what little I know about the inhabitants of this tower from Xil and Flocsle doesn't paint them in the most favorable light. And I mean, there's one of it and three of us, or I guess in my present condition more like two and a quarter of us, and if worse comes to worse we should be able to, uh, run away. So okay, maybe I ought to try to release it.

The problem is, I have no idea how.

There are all these levers and buttons and dials and none of them are labeled and I have no idea what any of them do. I don't know how I could figure out what the controls are for short of just trying things at random and, uh, that seems like it could potentially have some undesirable consequences...

So I sent away for one of those DNA test kits to find out my ancestry and it said I was, among other things, 5% Scottish, 5% Mexican, 10% crocodile, 4% sea slug, 2% Japanese, 2% bat, 2% seahorse, and 1.5% bunyip.

...Yeah, I don't know what kind of crazy ingredients @evilwizard used to make me.

Hello. I have come to ask what materials were used to create you. Did your creator author a paper with instuctions? Thank you

I mean... I was created by a notorious evil wizard who revels in destruction and despair. I... really don't think sharing his knowledge for the benefit of others was ever a high priority for him.
