Can't the Hammer Float?

Hang on to it and fly up to the brown nest thing.

It can fly. Whether he will fly us up there, however, is a completely different question. He doesn't seem to really like us. Something about us failing our quest and then using him as our substitute face...

[Gamerboy4life]

Re-morph into Datan.

Take a slab of crystal and investigate the characteristics.

Keep a few as torches.

[werozzi]

Honor Datan by commiting suicide!

[ottottott]

remember when I asked you for this:

Anyone care to make Legend entries for a couple of events in the story so I can link to them on the front page?   
Clearly Datan must be a Historical Figure by now!
What's the kill count?

It might appease Armok 

Did I mention that I will make engravings for the suggestions I choose?
He should also get a proper title.

Err, I didn't quite clearly understand what you're asking from us here.
And yes, I really, really miss Datan already. Grew attached to him in all those pages.

[Dariush]

Can't the Hammer Float?

This. If it doesn't work, then

Throw one of our ropes (tied to a rock or something) so it loops over the nest-like thing. Then we can climb up and see what horror waits for us there.

This.

Also, pleeeease use some other color for the slug's words. It's unreadable on Darkling theme. (damn, it's what, fourth thread where I'm asking this?...)

[PlutoniumApe]

Alright, grew my beard back. Was rather painful.
No idea what the crystals are made of, but I really like the green shimmer.
Can't really break something off... would have to destroy one of the big ones for some shards or whatever.

That thing up there looks like a big basket. Can't really see anything.
It's tied to the crystals on the ceiling.
Looks rather interesting. I wish I could reach it.... but...

FORGET ABOUT IT



... I also don't have a rope. Guys, I already told you.
This is all I have. It's not my fault, really.
Maybe I should just get this over with...

I meant those entries that might appear in Legends Mode when inspecting historical figures.
We already have the taming of the man bats.

So what I'm asking for:
- Collection of the most important events (that might appear in Legends Mode or could be depicted on engravings and figurines etc)
This is up to your imagination, really. I'll pick the best and make engravings for them and link them on the front page to the described part of the story.
- Kill Count
- And finally a title! for Datan! Bonus points for Dwarven translation.

If he really is that important to you... 

Honor Datan by commiting suicide!

I get that you hate PinkySlugMan.
But why do you assume that Datan won't ever come back?
What if PinkySlugMan is the only key? Oh wait, we already renamed him to Disappointment...

Also, pleeeease use some other color for the slug's words. It's unreadable on Darkling theme. (damn, it's what, fourth thread where I'm asking this?...)

I originally chose pink, but then I couldn't read it myself.

Oh, and before I forget. If you want to chat with the hammer: just do.

[Lich180]

Ask Hammerface for advice, preferably the life-changing variety ala Dr.Phil.

Especially since (we) PinkySlugMan, aka Disappointment, is depressed over the loss of Datan and the general hopelessness of the situation.

[PlutoniumApe]

Why won't you do something useful for a change?
If you are so wise and all-knowing, just tell me what I need to know
You didn't help when Datan was dying, he was all I had.
How can I go on without him?

DO YOU WANT HIM TO HAVE DIED FOR NOTHING?
DO YOU WANT TO STAND AROUND AND CRY? FINE.
DWARF UP AND GO ON! YOU MIGHT LOOK LIKE ONE
BUT YOU ARE STILL ACTING LIKE THE PATHETIC SLUG YOU ARE

YOU DON'T DESERVE THE NAME KOGANURIST, DISAPPOINTMENT
YOU WERE THE ONLY HOPE AND YOU FAILED

Why don't I just impale myself right on the spot?

[Lich180]

Boy, he sure is unhelpful... and enabling.

[Meistermoxx]

You have serious relationship issues, you should consider contacting Dr. Phil and get it sorted out.

Also, tell him that you didn't want Datan to die, but you need his advice, then submit to him, and promise him that you will feed him goblin souls soon enough.

[Golemnardah]

Mr. PinkSlugMan needs to continue to the right, along the crystals, and climb up that rope to the far right.

When he gets up he can untie and pull up the rope, tie it to the horn-carved-tusk-thing, then throw it so that it hooks on the nest-like-thing. Finally, de-facing himself by respecting the hammer and let him float by his lonesome self.

[Gamerboy4life]

What if actually impaling yourself upon the crystals imbues a sort of power?

Since he is a meta-morphic slug, being stabbed with a crystal might be painful, but not deadly, as he can stitch himself back together.

Test the properties with the crystal in contact with Slugman's skin. See if he turns back to our beloved Datan...


Also, does nobody give a shit about Doomy anymore?

[Urist McDwarfFortress]

Also, does nobody give a shit about Doomy anymore?

We were chasing the gobos who kidnapped Doomy. We'll rescue him if we ever catch up with them.

[PlutoniumApe]

Please Mr Hammer, I'm just as disappointed as you are
I will do everything, really, anything!
Just help me... any way you can. I trust in your wisdom.

IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN IF YOU CAN DO ANYTHING AT ALL



What an annoying climb... I don't know if I can safely pass the crystals to the other side



Oh and look! Some sort of cave maybe.
I wonder what's inside.



Well... the crystals themselves don't really hurt me I'd say.
Oh... and whatever happened down there?

[Urist McDwarfFortress]

Is that a backpack hanging on one of the smaller crystals? Get it! For LOOOOOOT!!!
