INNER WARD THIRD FLOOR 78 HUNGER ARTIST.

78 HUNGER ARTIST. In the center of the room is a wicker cage holding an impossibly thin elderly man sitting in straw, dressed in a white loincloth, and holding a small glass of water. This is Damianus Triskelion, the hunger artist.

Damianus Triskelion, Lawful Neutral normal sedentary male human (AC 10; MV 12", HD 1-4 hit points; hp 3; #AT 0; D Nil; XP -)

When the adventurers enter, he will ask if they have come to see him perform. He will also ask the adventurers if they can spare any water and talk to them about the “old days” when people used to come from miles around to watch him sit in a cage and refrain from eating. He has not seen anyone for a long time and will wonder where everyone has gone. Damianus is inoffensive but talkative, and he will try to engage the adventurers for as long as he can before they eventually bore of him. If asked if he would like to leave, he will say “Why, no, don't you know I'm going for the record?” If asked how long the record is to abstain from eating he will say it is ten years and sixteen days. So far he is on seven years, six months, and four days. He will ask if the adventurers can come back in two and a half years to see him break the record.
