There is so much to do in Kingdom of Loathing, how does the busy adventurer fit it all in? They get help, of course!

Every household can use a helping hand to make things run a little smoother. Now that you have someplace to sleep, it’s time to look at getting your campground looked after so that you can enjoy a life of leisure.

Obviously, having intelligent but pliable staff is optimal, which is why we recommend you start by creating brainy skulls to attack to the body of your choice.

Brainy Skulls

Brainy Skulls are crafted by combining a smart skull with a disembodied brain.

First: you need access to the Misspelled Cemetary in the Nearby Plains.

If it is not on your map, you need to visit your guild and click on the person who is the opposite class to you to receive the quest The Wizard of Ego.

Adventure here to collect smart skulls from a Smart Skelton. If you enter the Misspelled Cemetary with a ten-leaf clover equipped, you will receive the Only Dust and a Plaque encounter which rewards with a smart skull. If you have completed the quests in The Cyrpt, you can get both a smart skull and a disembodied brain by taking a ten-leafed clover to the Misspelled Cemetary.

Disembodied brains are dropped by Brainsweepers in Fernswarthy’s Tower in the Nearby Plains.

If this is not on your map, you will need to adventure in the Misspelled Cemetary until you receive a grave robbing shovel, an uncommon drop by grave robers in the cemetary, need not be equipped. Once you have that, adventure until you get A Grave Mistake as an encounter. This encounter rewards the letter which give access to Fernswarthy’s Tower. Take them back to your guild, read the letter and then speak to the quest giver again to recieve Fenworthy’s key. Fenworthy’s Tower will be added to the Nearby Plains.

Note that the Brainsweepers do not always drop a disembodied brain. If you are impatient, then enter the Tower Ruins in Fenworthy’s Tower with a ten-leafed clover and you’ll receive the I’ve Gotta Crow encounter and receive a disembodied brain.

Combine the smart skull with the disembodied brain to create a brainy skull.

Meat Maid

The meat maid keeps your campsite nice and tidy which results in your receiving four additional adventures every night. To create a meat maid, you will need a meat engine, just like you created for the Bitchin’ Meat Car.

This just will not do.

I know, you are new to the Kingdom and it’s just a campground but that doesn’t mean you can’t fix the place up a bit.

First things first, there is no way you can possibly get a decent night’s rest sleeping on the ground. Even the lowliest Accordion Thief has a tent for shelter. The better your dwelling, the more HP and MP you regain when you rest there and the more protection you will have if you decide to take part in player vs. player combat.

Newbiesport tent

Go to the Market in Seaside Town and buy a tent for 40 meat.

Stake it down and there you have it, a comfy spot to sleep from day one. Even the lowliest newbie can afford a tent.

Barskin tent

If you are level two, though, you shouldn’t need to buy a tent as you can make your own.

1. Head over to the Spooky Forest in the woods and start adventuring. Your goal is to kill bars until you receive a bar skin.
2. As you are fighting, you should run into the famous Vampire Hunger G. He’ll give you some wooden stakes (assuming you don’t already have some)
3. Combine the bar skin and the wooden stakes with the help of some meat paste and you’ll make a barskin tent. Hurrah!

Cottage

For the truly discerning adventurer, this comfortable little cottage is the best option for anyone under level 9. [More...]

Kingdom of Loathing is a free, web-based, multi-player, role-playing game based on stick figures and bad puns. You get 40 turns a day which you can increase with food and drink up to a maximum of 200. The game caters for all sorts of gameplay styles with a multitude of zones, optional PvP and a multi-player dungeon, Hobopolis. Not convinced?

Take a look at your choice of classes:

• Seal Clubber
• Turtle Tamer
• Pastamancer
• Sauceror
• Disco Bandit
• Accordion Thief

Obviously, I was immediately intrigued at the idea of playing a Pastamancer but to be honest, what sold me on the game was the Altar of Literacy. [More...]
