Maybe that's how Mindblast works - spamming by telepathy. When that Helghast drains your EP every round, it's due to the bombardment of advertisements promising to make this or that bigger, or Vassagonian princes needing your bank account details so they can temporarily "store" enormous amounts of gold.

In The Chasm of Doom. www.projectaon.org/en/xhtml/lw/04tcod/sect110.htmLone Wolf sees a naked women and stares at her until she finally screams at him and throws everything in her vicinity at him to get Lone Wolf to go away. Sounds like he likes girls to me.

Sadly, this doesn't prove at 100% that he loves women. It's not because LW is stunned by seeing a naked woman in a bath that makes him love them. He was expecting to see the actor, but instead he saw (probably for the first time. He didn't have internet to make his sexual education... ;D) a naked woman. It could have been a surgeon working on a client that LW's reaction would had probably been the same.

She's in the bath - if it's like the old fashioned bathtubs, you won't see much over the lip of them! I'm sure the blows to the head would have removed further memories!

I went back and re-read that section. A literal interpretation indicates the women is standing while bathing. "Unfortunately it is not the actor who stands before you, but a young woman..." It could also mean she is simply located in front of you and the sentence has no information regarding her position.
Since it is part of a traveling show, I doubt it was a real bathtub. That would take up a lot of room. If there was a bathtub I think it would be a more of a tub which you would sit in and would only be about waist deep, if that. However, since its referred to as a small coach, I'd guess she was actually taking a sponge bath of some sort with no actual tub involved, more of a washing basin. So I'm assuming LW got an eyeful that will get him through many a lonely night.
And most importantly I have spent way too much time analyzing this one section.

Why didn't Gary Chalk illustrate that one, eh?

Wow.
You know what? I don't think I remember ever finding that section before. I guess I've always managed to catch the actor when chasing after him (8 disciplines? of course one is going to be hunting).
Lone Wolf likes girls, but he knows with his Kai Skills nobody would ever believe him "accidentally" walking into the ladies room.

Heh, yeah. It seems he's better at Noodnics than nudes...

Also, if he had illustrated that section, then Lone Wolf's mission and adventure would always end here, if you get my drift...

Well, you either mean that the Lone Wolf books would get yanked from the "children's literature" shelves, or that Mr. Chalk would be arrested...

What's wrong about artistic nudity?

Somehow, I don't think there's Viagra in Magnamund. How would they sell it with no Internet over which to distribute the horribly misspelled spam E-mails to advertise it? I thought that's what those little medicine shops in the dark alleys were for? They seem to have almost everything...
