just loaded up the new df and you can be  a demigod now??!! or hero ect.... only created pocket world to see now stuff this is already looking good.

[Wolf Tengu]

I'm also confused...

[LoSboccacc]

debug code?


btw: it changes the starting character creation points

[JoshBrickstien]

I think it has something to do with difficulty.

It seems you get more points to spend on your character when you choose the more grandiose titles.  I'm wondering if maybe you start with a little more fame as well the higher up you are.

[gumball135]

That's probably it, liqud. It's actually a bit like Character gen in Mount and Blade.

EDIT: Looking through the ''Your First Adventurer" section in the help screen seems to suggest that the only benefit of picking hero or demigod status is that you get more attribute and skill points. Didn't mention any fame boost.

[Wolf Tengu]

Do attributes ever increase/decrease?

If they can't be changed, i'll sink everything into them and level up skills through use.

[doctorspoof]

If you read the manual like Toady said, he tells you that the titles affect how many points you get for skills and attributes.
Methinks attributes *should* level up with skills, but I'm unsure as of yet as to whether that actually happens.
In other news, new adventure mode is frigging awesome!

Yup, by performing actions related to them, including being punched or slashed repeatedly in order to increase toughness and endurance

[Wolf Tengu]

Kay.

[LoSboccacc]

it's way slower than before then, because my paesant had by now killed five creatures and had not a single skill increase

[NinjaE8825]

Well, my adventurer started with just superior kinesthetic sense, and now has superhuman kinesthetic sense.

I figured they don't advance since they don't in arena.  None of my adventurers seem to live long enough to advance normally.  My latest one was a totally badass wrestler who took out a whole dwarven bandit band alone when they ambushed him.  Of course he was supposed to be the one hunting them, but whatever.  The point is, he killed one of his targets, but the other one was a marksdwarf and shot him three time while he charged her in a blind rage after the first one hit him in the heart.  He killed her with a single punch to the head then walked about three steps before dying.
