Octopode Wierdness
Octopodes are strange, and this one is having an odd time.
A run in with a legendary deck of cards left my OpWz with 11 int and 20k exp in the bank.
12 levels of shields later, I kind of have a playable character!
So far I really like this race, but the seem REALLY RNG dependent. Octopoding is FUN!
