There are certain aspects that I find absolutely stupid. You can't drop your money, except in rare piggy banks. The author seems to think that the forced chance of money loss adds to the game somehow.

Would you rather have permadeath? As this is really nice relaxing and easy for a roguelike.

No, but getting "Aha! You just lost a thousand some odd gold with no chance of retaliation!" more than once on the first floor of the puppy cave is a bit much.

If you REALLY don't like it you can cheat a bit and exit out whenever that happens, I don't recommend doing that but you can it if bothers you. As the game keeps your save unless you pick Lie down when you die.

The alternative is to boost your luck, which if high enough will make those haha lost money encounters fail to happen.

Damn! What class are you, Omath?

Here's me. I'm a Warrior with Sexy x3 and really high charisma, intending to lead armies. So my personal equipment isn't as vital...



The scythe is the best thing I've got. The decapitation happens a *lot*. The other artifacts are very minor.

Edit: Message of the Day. "The quickling is caught in a trap and dies." Sneaky bastard. Got what was comin' ta ya. e_e

Juere Thief, which I would highly recommend.

Also, My Storage House:


All the potions in that little closet room to the North are dyes, the potions North of all my back-up armor are Cure Corruption or Cure Mutation

Museum:

How did you get 20+ karma as a thief? MY thief is like -50.  :'(

Interestingly, Armok's name actually originates from arm_ok, a variable in one of Toady's earlier games that kept track of how many of your arms weren't missing.

Damn. Very nice indeed. Makes me feel worse that I just got killed in a level 3 tower. Three times. Once by a wasp.

Try being chased around the puppy cave by a hermit crab because he heals faster then you can hurt him  >:(

That explains all the artifacts... You nicked those from Adventurers didn't you? I'm a Yerles archer so I can't pickpocket... Yet...

If I recall, little girls have a strength score of 19 by default. At first I laughed at the hideous absurdity of it, but I got kicked by a little girl before. It's probably pretty accurate.

Alright, after a lucky mutation I got another love slave COMPANION...

So that makes two Yerles machine infantry (Sasha, Nastasha) and a little girl (Vene) for my squad.

Yes the machine infantry is named after the heavy's guns.
