Look on the Fighting Fantasy solution Sorcery! algorithm table. I'd forgotten that The Solution Pages for The Sorcery Books have algorithm table's. I apologize for forgetting. I'll go have a look |

I have a theory on why The Black Cat you see at the start of City of Thieves can't be Zinbar Bone. What are your thoughts on my theory?
I believe theirs no way it could have been Zanbar Bone, after all he has the power to kill someone by touching them and if it was him then the only reason he'd be their is if he'd somehow learnt of your mission
This means that he'd know you were going to get help from Nicomedus, he's smart enough to know that theirs a way to kill him and he's also smart enough to know that Nicomedus is smart enough to know how to kill him
This means that The Black Cat can't be Zinbar Bone and the reason for that is that he's smart enough to know that the best idea is to kill you before you have the chance to find out how to kill him

Or alternatively, a familiar sent by Zanbar Bone to give you bad luck. I haven't read COT intro for quite a while and I don't have it to hand. |

Or alternatively, a familiar sent by Zanbar Bone to give you bad luck. I haven't read COT intro for quite a while and I don't have it to hand. I was going to ask why he'd transform himself into a black cat if doing so costs him so much magic that he loses the power of killing via a touch Then it occurred to me that its possible that this could be the 1st time that he's tried to use the power to kill via a touch whilst transformed What makes that plausible is that even Zinbar Bone doesn't know everything and if this is the 1st time that he's tried to use the power to kill via a touch whilst transformed then he may not know that he can't use the power of killing via a touch whilst transformed |

Nicodemus states that, "In daylight hours [Zanbar Bone] exists on another plane."
It is already dawn by the time you leave the tavern and almost trip over the cat. The cat may be a familiar, but it can't be Bone himself, as the daylight hours have just commenced.
