Collecting Heads!
« on: November 10, 2007, 10:20:00 am »

For some time I've had this small and harmless hobby of collecting souveniers from beheaded enemies. I haven't had too much success, around 10 (mostly kobold) heads at best (my adventurers tend to have a short life-span), but I'm curious if anyone else has discovered this macabre activity.

If so, then care to post a screenshot of your trophy collection?

A now dead .32a adventurer collected a dead human who got splattered to pieces.
I had in my inventory:
Head
Upper body
Lower body
Left upper arm
Right upper arm
Left lower arm
Right lower arm
Left hand
Right hand
Left upper leg
Right upper leg
Left lower leg
Right lower leg
Left foot

A corpse
Absolutely no idea what the last one is for because i thought i picked up pretty much everything.

I had a dire wolf lower body, a batman chunk, and a giant cave spider abdomen in my mouth in addition to all of that before a giant brown recluse killed me.

I was playing as a wyvern in Teldin's mod.

I collect heads. It's a habit from IVAN.

Such a shame you can't kick objects in DF. This makes playing head-ball impossible.

Once when massacring an elven settlement, I burned all the corpses to collect the skulls. But all the skulls were such a burden I only took a few with when I left.

I'm making all of my buildings out of dead fire men. (They leave ashes)

Although I suppose that's a different mode.

I tend to collect threads and use them as throwing weapons.

Don't have a screenshot as I do not have an adventure mode game going at the moment.

I once had a funny message:
The spinning Iron Man head hits the Iron Man in the head.
The Head flies off in an arc (or something).
The Iron Man is struck down.

Hehey, doubled the amount of iron man heads  :) Also, the ironman statue makes for a funny throwable item  :D Bit heavy to carry though, but hilarious as a weapon! Also, mole dogs, and kobold corpses make great throwables.

Throwing - the ability to kill creatures with creatures...
