Why won't this corpse turn into an earring!!
« on: December 31, 2009, 05:27:24 pm »
I've been hearing around the forums that when you retire as a peasant while you're holding a corpse, the next time you continue he'll have made an accessory from it like an earring or a bracelet. When I tried this, I retired while in a human village holding a named ogre's corpse. When I unretired my adventurer, he still had the corpse.

What me do wrong?

You get earrings for kills not corpses
and you have to retire in dark fortress, I think

2 things:

Ive only managed it with bones , so try burning the corpse.

Also, i played another character for about 2 seasons ingame time

Thats all i can say to help really, it happened to me in a human town though.

It's possible it has to do with ethics- if the race you are playing doesn't support making trophies of kills you might not get it.

Oh dammit. I'm a humie.

Wait, that doesn't matter because in their Entity raw humans all think keeping trophies is acceptable...

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.
