Steaming evil
From TheKolWiki
This is a fist-sized chunk of pure evil, stolen from the Hermit's secret underground laboratory. (In-game plural: steaming evils) |
Obtained From
- Obsoleted Areas/Methods
- The Mall of Loathing
- BoozerBear's store (Details below)
Notes
- Item number 666 was originally hacked into the game by BoozerBear; it did not exist at the time. Nevertheless, Boozer kept 13 of them in his inventory until one day, as a meatsink, Jick created the steaming evil. Boozer sold all but one of them in the Mall for 999,999,999 Meat each, placing the remaining one into his display case, then had the resulting bugmeat destroyed. At the time, it was a 180 power "weapon (one-handed evil)", off-hand items not having been implemented yet.
- Despite what the item description may say, the Hermit does not, in fact, have a secret laboratory. This is actually a joke relating to the way they were hacked. There was once an exploit that allowed a person to use the hermit (or l33t tr4pz0r) to obtain any item they wanted. This exploit has since been fixed.
References
- This item may refer to the movie Time Bandits, where the Evil Genius exploded into several fist-sized, steaming chunks of pure evil near the end of the film. Notably, according to the Supreme Being, the evil has a strangely KoL-apropos effect: "Do be careful! Don't lose any of that stuff. That's concentrated evil. One drop of that could turn you all into hermit crabs."
