Well, that's it. I'm insane now. I read your post, MottledPetrel, and now I'm insane. I hope it's at least the cool artist or supervillain kind of insane and not anything sad or violent. Either way, I'm crazy now and it's your fault. I hope you're happy.

Well, IIRC, there's melancholy (wandering around trying to end your life via cliff/drowning/magma until you die of thirst), berserk (homicidal rage type), and catatonic (stare into space indefinitely while your body slowly rots into nothingness.)

Not a particularly promising set of options, and the last happens very rarely (to me, anyways).

EDIT: Seems I forgot about stark raving mad. For some inexplicable reason. You will strip off all your clothes and run around babbling aimlessly until you come by a random troll that wandered up from the caverns. Truly the way for a dwarf to go.

At this point I'm honestly not sure what pushed you over the edge, there was a lot in that update that could have been the culprit.

Do it or no balls.

Expect screenshots of the books at the tower sometime between tomorrow and this weekend.

Bloop_bleep: Exists

Someone decided that they were going to start bucket feeding bloop_bleep water, so he's going to keep existing curled up on the floor for a lot longer than I thought he was, but he's starting to starve.

am I ok?

[pikachu17]

So, nobody has liasons that you can order pikachus from?

[MottledPetrel]

Lunar fine, and all of the liaisons left before I could even talk to them.


Bottom left is us, top right is the target. At this point it might not even be a necromancer's tower because there are just so many secrets in this modpack.

Take your bets boys, I'll put a poll up for which book we should specifically raid for after I get a few of your suggestions as to which ones hold the secrets we desire.

Spurvulture sounds like a slab.

[auzewasright]

Let's get "A record of Genius" for my personal library.

[pikachu17]

If any of those contain secrets, I think the ones with "The Obsession" seems suspicious.

[SQman]

Unusual obsession sounds so ambiguous. It could be either about someone's obsession with mortality, but at the same time it could be about someone becoming a rock collector. Not a necromancy book though.

Spurtvulture seems likely to be a slab.

[scourge728]

Take them all

Yeah, but slabs can only be read by adventurers, not fort mode dwarves, at least not as far as I know.

[Darkening Kaos]

    There are several books written about The Tower, maybe that's the secret to necromantic power?

[MottledPetrel]

I would take them all if I could, but I only have access to the raid function, not the pillage or raze. I was thinking I could go on a mission for a specific book, but now the wiki is telling me they'll just steal whatever they feel like, but artifacts first. Also, for a little extra help, a necromantic book must contain at least one of these following words according to the wiki: Annihilation, Bereavement, Death, Demise, Departure, Doom, Dying, Eternal Rest, Expiration, Extinction, Mortality, Immortality, Loss, Oblivion, Parting, Ruin, Ruination, Sleep, the Afterlife, the End, the Grave. Also, I had never considered that fortress mode creatures can't read slabs, that might become a problem because adventure mode doesn't work anymore.
