    Yeah, that sounds about right for what I remember, too.

        Roguelike shopkeepers know this trick - that’s why they always stand in front of the door as soon as you pick something up.

            The ring is also cursed to be unremovable. You either need to get used to stealing every single mundane item from clothes to food every single day or pay the shopkeeper to remove it.

              Pawn shops may have locked doors that someone behind the counter has to trigger to open.

              Went to one once (California) and think they said the fire chief had approved the system. Quick search shows perhaps that’s plausible.

                AMF’d nullify the magic store’s wares and the guards’d be at disad to do shit w/o it on them, anyhow.

                    Who cares if your wares are temporarily nullified. Some scofflaw is making off with your child’s sword training money. Time to use AMF and beat them with a stick.

                    But true sight is better. I totally forgot about it lol.

                              What you do not see or smell is Vizzini, the most serious Sicilian when it comes to death known to man.

                                        That could make for a fun little side plot setup. Whole town is convinced it’s haunted, but it’s just some guy who doesn’t have a good grasp on common stuck in a cursed ring of invisibility.
