At least there's no wagon husk
« on: June 05, 2016, 08:23:58 am »
The dwarves just finished cleaning up the fort and hauled all the tattered clothes and large troll fur socks to the trade depot, when suddenly a haunting fog drifted towards the trade depot.

And teeth flew.

More teeth.

I gave up.
I'll just d-b-d them all and then pick the weapons and metal bars out.

I don't understand what this terrifying thing is. How can I make it happen?!

Is there a syndrome that causes teeth to fall out?

Kasat Osmandonu, Ghostly Human Bard has risen and is haunting the fortress!
At least his moaning and chain rattling will be in key and hopefully entertaining.

No, the fog turns creatures into some sort of zombies. And they beat each other up, usually shattering their teeth in the process.

I suppose what happened there was either that a someone was turned in the weather and instantly kicked out someone elses teeth before the second person was turned as well or there some kind of loyalty cascade among zombies.

In evil biomes (usually purple/pink colored areas when you choose embark sites) there is one type of evil weather occuring randomly per site. You can look the specifics up if you want but basically the mist can sometimes turn everything alive instantly into stronger than usual zombies. Sometimes they get dust from the clouds on their bodies so it transfers to things it fights as well. Also if it was an armored and weapon weilding dwarf/human/goblin they keep the weapons and armor and continue to fight with it, although they dont get skills they keep the ones they had when alive if I remember correctly. I have yet to meet a master lasher gloom husk goblin with a whip but boy would it be fun.

No, husks still learn. Also, they aren't nerfed like zombies are, they retain all their fighting ability.
