Wait. The sponge is pale?
Do sponges even have blood?

[jaxy15]

Everyone simply assumes that you can't hurt giant sponges, but you're not thinking outside the box.

Sure, you can't harm them... physically. But have any of you tried a hurtful personal insult? Making fun of its weight, perhaps, playing up its insecurities?

I tried that. You will be paying for the medical bill. It pushed me until my friggin leg broke.

[Garath]

you forgot step 1 in this torture method. stay out of reach.

[Mr.Elendig]

Let the taunting commence.

Yes, that is making me wonder... sponges don't have blood and should not be pale.

Unconscious and exhausted ? Hilariously unrealistic, but can happen. Enraged ? Exactly the sme. Pale ? Nope.

It's summer of year two of the fort, and the sponge is still unconscious, exhausted and pale. Sponges don't have blood, but they can get infections, maybe this is the reason my sponge is pale? Or maybe it has gone pale because this serious and it is very angry.

I'm getting slightly worried about the mantis man, though. Animal man variants have the can learn tag, right? Is he some kind of insectoid super-warrior after a year of beating on this sponge?

Creatures can get pale from being infected, so I think that might be the reason why.  Not sure if it'll die of the infection though... maybe I'll do some !!SCIENCE!! to find out...

Test it out.

With all of your civilians assigned as armless wrestlers.

[Loud Whispers]

armless wrestlers.

The preparation becomes the outcome.

[ObeseHelmet]

I didn't even notice that
I meant "armorless."

In any case, if the dwarves collectively have 0 arms before you know it, then the mantis man is officially a Kung Fu Master Mantis Man. Congratulations.

Infections.....

This may be the only way to actually kill a giant sponge.

Please keep us posted; does it ever get Faint? Is Faint after Pale? I forget.

Summer of the second year, I've driven off the mantis man with crossbows. The sponge shows no wounds anymore, but is still pale.

WHY DID YOU DO THAT, YOU COULD HAD PUT [PET] AND [PET_WAR] AND GOT A SUPER-SOLDIER!
