THE PROFESSOR
An anonymous professor of
Galepath University also gave lectures at
G.U.E. Tech
(which included his famous 'Cultural Significance of Hitting People
with Sticks'). The learned scholar, who was also a bit haughty,
was frequently seen new
the White House, offering lessons for new adventurers during the
Great Monster Uprising.
Some spectulate that this act of charity may have been a business
investment, hoping to draw profit from the starters once they grew in
stature; for the Professor also taught adventurers several
combative skills. The prices for this training were as follows (prices
reflect the
zorkmid inflation of the
period):
