My odd little tale.
« on: March 06, 2008, 05:42:00 am »

So, its my first attempt at adventuring. I spawn as a dwarf axeman in the middle of nowhere, with a few points put into everything not a weapon. I wander into a fortress, but can't seem to find anyone in charge. After a time, I get bored, and begin massacring them. I kill one peasent, take all his stuff, knock another unconscious, and then bombard him to death with the other guy's pants, shoes, etc.

I went into the forest and killed a bear. I picked up the bear and moved on. After awhile, I was ambushed by another bear. I hurled the first one at it, shattering its spine. After that, I started every fight by hurling bears, peasents, and wolves at my enemies.

Then I arrived at a fortress, and the queen attacked me. She just charged down from the fortress, yelled "I am ______ ______, Queen! Prepare to die!" and took a bear to the head, kept charging, took an axe to the arm, fell unconscious, and died under the flurry of peasents. Then a guard appeared and stabbed me in the gut, so I died.

One day flys will be able to fly up your nose and explode your head. So says my crystal cube.

In my first adventure game (about a week ago) I accidentally punched the mayor. The village children cornered me and ripped me to shreds.

I created a second adventureer. I carefully read the wiki. I attacked at nightfall and murdered them all in their beds.

Having suitibly revenged, I then proceeded to die to a goblin drunk.

How do you do this? I mean, I had just 1 or 2 stupid deaths when 1 remaining wolf had bitten off my head. And maybe ~5 times I ended in the pond/fell from high cliff.
Other than that, every my adventurer was able to kill a lot of people and monsters. I just like sneaking around and shooting with x-bow/chopping with axe.
And for sure I have a high parring value.
Also I don't like to have a lot of skill points to be spent here and there. I usually just take 1 weapon skill, shield and armor skill. Lately I started to pick swimming skill as well.

I like pretending I'm a member of an opposing church, march into a human town, and just beat all their priests to death with whatever symbol is suggested by my name. When I got "Hammerkissed" as a name, not a single priest was left alive.
