Sure why not?

One entry per person?

You can enter as many as you want, just make sure that all your entries are the best you can make. You can only win once, anyways.

Huh, now I feel stupid.

Ugh, how'd i miss that. 

[socially_inept_butterfly]

oops, I'll add that rule to the first post.

[i2amroy]

Opps! I accidentally gave you a Dark Rider creature files version that wasn't the latest. Here is the correct one. Sorry!

Ah, alright. I'll fix that then.

[i2amroy]

Just wanted to bring this back and remind everyone that it exists.

[LumenPlacidum]

  Well, my first possible creature doesn't want to appear in worlds, and my second has caused massive brushfires and asphyxiated.  Does either fire or heat damage fireimmune creatures?  Also, it would seem that strands of silk shot as webbing don't have the same properties as silk left as webbing when the map starts.

This sounds cool until you read the readme in your dwarf fortress file and scroll down to the bottom, where it says this.

We do not accept submissions for the official Dwarf Fortress releases.  Please do not ask for your code, art, sound or raw/objects txt files to be incorporated into the official releases.

Doesn't fire immune just make them think they're immune to fire? Also, if it died of lack of air, [NOBREATHE] could fix that...I think.

[Greiger]

Setting [HEATDAM_POINT] and [IGNITE_POINT] to high values should make them immune to heat.  If you use those tags though you need to get rid of [STANDARD_FLESH] since standard flesh overwrites thouse values with a generic "fleshy creatures" heat and cold tolerance.

Might wanna add [COLDDAM_POINT] too as without standard flesh it may default to an odd value.

The only way to kill it is with fire/magma or to shove it down a bottomless chasm. I prefer chopping everything off but the heads and leaving em for dead meself

EDIT: Anyone know how I stop the RAWs from going funny when I try to stick im in quotes?

[socially_inept_butterfly]

Cool, I'll add it.
I don't know how to keep the raws from going goofy, but using code instead of quote tags might do it.

[deadlycairn]

Turns out it's harder to kill than I thought. Here's a new and improved version, with less falling, and (I hope) slightly less impervious to fire (before all it did was render him useless, not kill him)

I like the idea of a bodyless head rolling around screaming at people
Also does anyone know EXACTLY what standard_flesh implies, and any way I can make this completely incinerate when it catches fire At the moment he just gets mangled all over, which would make ambushes a nuisance.

EDIT: Altered some minor mistakes with the attacks that stopped them working properly, and added the sight token to his eyes.

EDIT2:Altered the attacks slightly, and made him a size bigger (for dramatic effect ) Also upped damblock to four (to simulate wooden/straw body and to increase not-get-reduced-to-a-head-that-can-only-push-ability). I would say survivability, but there's no problem with that

[socially_inept_butterfly]

I'll change it

[i2amroy]

[STANDARD_FLESH] implies a flesh creature and give it certain preset values pertaining to temperature (damage, evaporating point, that sort of thing) if other ones are not provided.
