My first werecurse!
« on: April 01, 2013, 01:44:15 am »

I've always wanted to become a werecreature, but I haven't even seen one in creature form in adventure mode. However, this time I wasn't even trying to...

I found a vampire priest in the temple, called him out for it, and killed him. Apparently the god of lakes was OK with an undead worshipper:

That is... kinda an anti-climax. "Yep... your cursed now. now get lost"

Though admittingly I didn't know you could actually profane things.

Wait, this really happens? I always thought it was just worldgen flavor. That's awesome.

Wow. And an actual werewolf too. I've never seen a werewolf in the game before.

As said before, what version is this in? I'd love to be able to do this... think of the fun at parties!

[EDIT]Just tested this in 34.11 by kicking a priest in the face. Nothin'.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Did you actually kill him/her? It might make a difference.

I'll have to test this myself now...I wonder how rare temples are.

"You kick the sacred iron in the head with your left foot, shattering the skull, jamming the skull through the brain and tearing the brain!
The sacred iron has been struck down."
Sounds pretty dead to me.

Temples are pretty common. They appear in pretty much every city. I found two right next to each other, once.

Urist McFreud, Chief Psychotherapist Dwarf, has much to say regarding this statement.
