The bug report has been posted:

http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=6310

Please feel free to post further information to the bug report. I think it would be very useful if we had a link to the 2012 succession world save that has the same problem, I however can't find it.

Downloading turn 30 and making and retiring another adventurer (without interacting with any of the other adventurers) results in the bug recurring again.

Didn't notice this earlier, but that didn't work for me in an earlier attempt:

I don't think we can scroll to the existing adventurers. Also, its not strictly caused by the number of adventurers on the list. I took one of the last working saves and started and retired five or six adventurers in that save, it did not trigger the bug.
.

As for the bug, I can reliably reproduce it in my game by breaking the 30k active historic figure mark. It's possible to start a new adventurer, but you should kill yourself because once you retire, no more choosing that guy back.

Diary of Kaslun Dapsanig the Whirling Anguish

Date: Time no longer matters to one such as I

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

My name is Kaslun Dapsanig. I am a Necromancer who has created a great line of necromancers in the city of Omon Woge. When I had first heard of the museum I thought of the terrors of the world that might kill me. In that moment I sought Immortality in name and in being. So I worked up my skills and I assaulted a necromancers tower. There I obtained a set of books which I brought back to the museum. Sadly at that time I could not understand the contents of the book. I began another journey with a female companion we went on a journey to a site where an ancient Titan was said to live. The rumors were true. The beast was enormous and emitted an extract that made me spew pus for as long as I have lived. My companion killed the beast with a strike to the head but sadly she was killed by a ferocious camel in an accident. I lugged the Titans corpse alone to the museum. I felt the loneliest I had ever been in the world. Soon after I finally learned the secrets of necromancy. Now I am ageless. I no longer need to consume food or drink as the power of Necromancy sustains my body. But this pus... it remains a reminder of my mortality. That I can succumb to disease at any time. I have settled in a broken down home in southern dinnerwandered for now.

Date: Time is meaningless

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

A few others have moved in with me they are all practitioners of Necromancy they had learned from the tomes I had taken from the tower. But perhaps one of the most interesting is Nil Swiftoast. He is a dwarven man of small stature and great bravery. But he had an aura that of which was  much more powerful than the necromancy we knew. He also wore shining armor light blue in color a metal I had never seen before.

Nil told me his  story on how he obtained the powerful necromantic magic he was now infused with. He told me that when he was exploring he entered one of the corrupted areas of the world where he encountered a demon that spewed fireballs lighting the land ablaze. But what most interested me is the fact he said he felt himself die as a mist rolled down the land. But... he was not  dead this I could see. But when i got a closer look at his eyes I could see his eyes were glazed over as if dead. He said when he came out of the mist he felt much more powerful and then had proceeded to kill the Demon in a single blow. I knew this must be the true way to immortality. I would make myself into a immortal being this I knew. But he told me more of his tale. He said he had found a cave which lead into the caverns below our world. There he found a fortress composed of a material with the blackness of night that couldn't even be scratched. He had heard voices in his head since he had been changed leading him to this very placed. He had also found an army of undead who had said they were guardians but nothing else. Inside he had found a sword made of what he knew as Adamantine. Adamantine he said is a mythical metal that Dwarves chased for across the planet. It was said the Metal made the strongest armor that could deflect any blow and any weapon made with it could cut through boulders. Nil said he had been overtaken by his Greed and pulled the sword from its  pedestal. He had unleashed hell itself and slew the demons that poured from the opening. He had killed many and then fled the caverns. He had later came upon a abandoned dwarven fortress where he found adamantine armor sealed away. He had taken the armor for himself and placed the axe and shield he had found inside the museum for any to take.

So I called my new squire to go and obtain them for me so I may go and find this place of great Necromantic power and become an immortal myself. The Axe and Shield will surely be a boon in my journey

Next time on the Adventures of Kaslun Dapsanig

Besieged: Mortal Heroes attack Kaslun and Company (So how would I get the battle report to give to you guys?)

The Day of the attack

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Nil and I only wished for Peace but we were attacked. Surrounded the assailants entered the house. One had a whip which I attempted to take to no avail. Luckily my squire was right outside and said he had dropped the items right outside. I ran to get them and equipped them for the coming battle...

Then everything went blank. I suddenly felt enraged and realized what had happened. There was now blood everywhere  I can scarcely remember what occured. My squire was now dead and I found Nil surrounded by Zombies. He and his zombies were now chasing roaming pets that attacked the undead. Complete and utter madness.

The gamelog.txt to be downloaded. I honestly have no clue how the explorer who was Logic died. I'm pretty sure I cleaved someone in two as  well. Too lazy to check.

Images of after what happened

I am now an enemy of Dinnerwandered

[Kromgar]

I'm furious right now. I got Kaslun to bralbaards first fort and a monitor lizard attacked his left hand making it useless. I went down south to get a husk so I could pick shit up. I was incapable of doing so. So I went to retire and realized I wouldn't know where to find kaslun. Oh and his arm got cut off because he cant use his arms. Arn't husks supposed to be undead therefore nerve damage doesnt apply? Maybe I had to retire to make it affect him? Well now I dont know where to find him. God damn it. Can I just start a new character or should my turn be considered over since Kaslun is incapable of picking anything up?

[laularukyrumo]

Go around and bite everyone to death.

Seriously, I escaped a Giant Desert Scorpion, only to be ganked in my sleep by two measely goblins. You can suck it up.

I can't  take anything to the museum.

[Trungdle]

kill more enemies. suicide in the museum. there lie the corpse of Kaslun the handicapped husk. This story is about a brave warrior who cannot pick anything up. Swore to contribute to the museum, he wander the wild in the hope of taking treasures from far away lands. Unfortunately, his hand was cut off by enemies after he have become a legend. Brave enough to keep his word, he then killed himself in order to become one of the objects.
R.I.P Kaslun.
P/S: also, you could try to find some were-beasts and get bitten. Your hand will grow back in the full moon. Profit. Nothing is impossible in this game.

If you are a necromancer you cant become a werebeast

If I remember correctly, you can be a werebeast-necromancer and a vampire-necromacer; you can't be both a vampire and a werebeast. However I'm not sure whether this applies when husked.

[Spish]

Mainly because you can't be a werebeast and undead at the same time; which is precisely why you can't raise werebeast corpses, haha.

[NAV]

You could go find a big scary monster, bite a piece of it off, and bring that to the museum.

[laularukyrumo]

I'm also fairly certain you could go into the raws and temporarily add the [GRASP] token to whatever Kaslun is (dwarf, I think, maybe, not sure, too lazy to check), and that would let you pick up a backpack and put it on. I don't know if you need to be able to grasp in order to store stuff in your backpack, but at the very least, you could go on your adventure, then drag your treasure back in your mouth, then once you're done, remove the relevant token from the raws before uploading the save.

[Putnam]

It'd have to be added to a body part, not the dwarf itself.

[Trungdle]

add it to his secret body part that is hidden all the time. then use it to grasp stuff. just because.
