Night Creatures are so weird.
« on: January 27, 2011, 07:44:38 am »
"Mortar & Pestal"?
"Beetle Remains"?
"Dwarf Meat"?
"Carving Fork"?
"Beetle Paste"?

The only thing I can draw is they eat people, but not before they mash up beetles and use them as seasoning...

It isn't obvious? Mommy and little monsters sit down to dinner to eat daddy! Or the other way around if the Night Creature is male,

I kind of assumed that they would eat something more seasonal, like pilgrims.

Night creatures have all sorts of special habits:
* GRIND_BONE_MEAL
* COOK_BLOOD
* GRIND_VERMIN
* COOK_VERMIN
* COOK_PEOPLE
* COLLECT_TROPHIES

A few other habits are exclusive to user-defined creatures:
* EAT_BONE_PORRIDGE (minotaurs have this along with GRIND_BONE_MEAL)
* USE_ANY_MELEE_WEAPON (minotaurs)
* COLLECT_WEALTH (dragons)

It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.

It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

* GRIND_BONE_MEAL (grind bones into bone meal)
* COOK_BLOOD
* GRIND_VERMIN (grind vermin into paste)
* COOK_VERMIN
* COOK_PEOPLE
* COLLECT_TROPHIES (skulls)
* EAT_BONE_PORRIDGE (?)
* USE_ANY_MELEE_WEAPON
* COLLECT_WEALTH

Several other creatures have these habits as well - dragons have COLLECT_WEALTH, and minotaurs have GRIND_BONE_MEAL, EAT_BONE_PORRIDGE, and USE_ANY_MELEE_WEAPON.

THANKS FOR TAKING THE MAGIC OUT OF IT  >:(

Every few miles, [the dwarves] stop the cart.  One of the dwarfs (sic) gets off, digs a hole down below the dirt layers, licks the bedrock, and then they know exactly where they are.  It's called GPS: Geological Piquancy Sampling.

Nothing that I know of. There only seems to be a coded response for lair creatures (which must be either night creatures or (semi)megabeasts, which means they'll always be historical figures and the like).
