Runaway: A Road Adventure Hints
Where can I get a medium?
1 of 10: You probably won't find someone to volunteer for the job. You'll need to do it yourself.
2 of 10: Volunteer (to Mama Dorita) to be the medium. She'll tell you that you are not mentally prepared to be one.
3 of 10: Perhaps, you could figure out some way to alter your state of mind.
4 of 10: Have you been around Douglasville recently? You should find a character there who can help you with this.
5 of 10: Rutger, the resident "gardener", is back in town.
6 of 10: Talk to Rutger (who's sitting downstairs in the saloon).
7 of 10: Ask him about a substance that will let someone go into a trance. He says he'd be happy to, but wants "something he might like" in exchange.
8 of 10: Rutger will give you a smoke in exchange for your tomahawk/pipe. Unfortunately, it's still not enough to make you a decent medium.
9 of 10: Go back to Rutger, and ask him for something more powerful. He'll tell you about a Hopi recipe that calls for Yawaskel balls. Brian will point out that the pods in your inventory probably contain the seeds you need... you just need to get them open.
10 of 10: Give the pods to Rutger, and he'll provide you with a sample of the Hope brew. You can finally act as a medium. Enjoy the cut-scene that follows.
