Bribbo awoke to find all his precious belongings and even his GM powers were gone! He began to run frantically around town looking for a GM who might know what to do. He spotted a group of GMs talking to each other.

“I lost my powers!” Bribbo shouted.

“We did too!” They all chimed back.

“We need to figure out what happened, and quickly!” Bribbo said.

Just then, Bribbo noticed a mysterious sheet of paper in his pocket. He unfolded it and began to read it aloud:

“Your gear and powers are gone, but there is a way for you to get them back. Solve this puzzle and you will get your answer. Here are your hints:

Every letter is assigned a number. The numbers are assigned in a specific pattern to the alphabet from a-z.

Because every letter has a number assigned to it, each word has a total value (the numbers of each letter in the word added up).

You will get a couple different words with their total value and it’s up to you to figure out what number is assigned to each letter. It is possible for two letters to have the same number assigned to them, but it is rare.

Once you have figured out what number is assigned to each letter, use that to solve the answer and get your gear and power back!

The final answer has no spaces in between the words.

Here are your words and the numeric value next to each word. Use it to find the pattern of the alphabet and get your answer!
