[43.05] The Nuckelavee
« on: January 24, 2017, 01:16:44 am »

The other day, a friend of mine showed me this fun little critter, and ruminated on the possibilities of modding it into DF. I read the article and immediately said YES.

Then I did a forum search and realized that a few people already made their own nuckelavees, but I spent two whole days on this bugger and damned if I'm gonna let that stop me.

This mod adds a single creature to the game: the dreaded Nuckelavee. It's self-contained and will work with most other mods. Add the included files to your raws folder and create a new world.

"An enormous two-headed sea demon whose form is that of the upper body of a man merged with a horse; it spreads misfortune wherever fell lands meet cold seas. Its skinless flesh pulsates with black blood and powerful muscles. The manlike half causes calamities with dark powers; the equine half spreads a deadly plague with its breath, and bears a single eye that burns with unholy light."


Bonus clip: The Mortasheen Plague it causes is contagious as hell, and your dwarves will spread it by hacking up clouds of phlegm all over each other.

regardless, the slime shooter will be completed, come hell or high water, which are both entirely plausible setbacks at this point.

sounds really cool - hey, if ur good at creature RAWS, im making a rather ambitious magic mod - adding arcane, druid, holy, unholy, psionic, and enchantment magic into the game, and i wanted to know if you could build a couple of undead abominations for me. Like, one megabeast level, one semi-mega level, and two about equal to a troll in general strength. If u arent comfortable with magical effects/interactions, just tell me, and any concept you have i can do the magic/special powers portion u. If ur willing to help.
