I don't see any problems with posting them here, but as we seem to
have a mixture of people who played it long ago and those that are
just starting out, you may not get all of the answers you want. Wasn't
there also a PhrozenKeep forum? If there was (I seem to remember
seeing it *some*where, but it's definitely not listed on the site,
that may be what I get for doing all of my research/playing in the
early morning hours ;-) ) that may be the best place to find answers
in English. Ah, here we go:

Same thing happened to my Bowazon, I think.

Cubing with them? Ok, in Hellfire it was just click and apply
(right-click, IIRC), but I haven't found any yet, so thanks for the
info ;-)

I'm not sure, as I only have the Qual Khek (sp!) one, and that with
the Bowazon who hasn't found her stash yet, so it's in her cube, IIRC.
There's supposed to be a doll bag somewhere, though, and the part of
the readme that talked about it said something about if you get the
faded look, the doll bag was full and more wouldn't have any effect,
so there must be *some* effect from them.

I'm becoming convinced, I'll be pretty positive if the Bowazon finds
it there in her next game ;-)

I'm relatively sure this is talking about your teddy.

Really? I haven't gotten there yet.

Interesting, I must have missed that. The readme has it right, though.
You have to remember, though, that the site's author's English isn't
that good ;-)

Hopefully this was just a bad download the first time, I haven't had
*any* problems like that so far, and yeah, I *have* de- and
re-activated it, I had to show my youngest the new town yesterday ;-)

Disappointing, but I'll live with it ;-)

Yeah, the stash has to be the best feature ;-) It appears, from what
got added to my D2 folder, that it's part of the plugy package that's
available for Nez as well, but I haven't been able to get it to work
with that mod.
BTW, you're only playing the one character, right? 'Cause while doing
a quick browse through the forum I posted above there was some
reference to the stash being shared, which I'm curious about.

Cool, I haven't found one of those yet, but am getting rich just
selling the Fulminating Potions and such that are dropping ;-)
