* Not only was he looking for a former incarnation of you, that was a [[bones]] level. If you search around, you'll find your old corpse and all your inventory. Bones levels often include things that don't happen on a freshly-generated level - [[Keystone Kops]], corpses with no cause (traps etc excluded), partially eaten food, corroded weapons and the like. A Shopkeeper who left her/his store is one of these cases. Of an interesting note, if you name your character exactly the same thing (in this case Tobias), the Shopkeeper may *STILL* be angry with you, and would continue to pursue you! -- [[User:Kalon|Kalon]] 22:58, 23 February 2009 (UTC)

Playing, I was on Dlvl 4 when I ran into a shopkeeper, Asidonhopo, who, upon meeting me, stated that he was looking for a former player character, Tobias. This occurred in a hallway, not at all near the shop. 144.118.195.171 18:03, 23 February 2009 (UTC)Zophar
