Here is something strange I noticed in the Hydra's kill long Toady posted.  (He didn't make any comment on it so I don't know if he saw it.)

quote:
In  184, Obruk  Mucoustakes  the Brave  Hide of  Barbarians attacked  Damsto
Terrorlight.
In 184, Damsto Terrorlight's head was ripped by Obruk  Mucoustakes the Brave
Hide of Barbarians.
In  184, Damsto  Terrorlight managed to  escape from  Obruk Mucoustakes  the
Brave Hide of Barbarians's onslaught.
 

I am guessing that Damsto died in some manner and thus escaped, but it looks a little strange.(Unless Damsto is an ettin now with one head...)

The head was injured, but still attached.

Yeah, "ripped" in this case is a red-level wound caused by a GORE-type attack. "Ripped off" would be a complete detachment. Hm, I'd like the legends to have that listed intead of just "was killed by" entries.

In 12, Urist vonUrist ripped the head off of Flamey McDragon with his bare hands.
