I travelled to a keep, found the slab I was looking for, read it and then I became a diseaser. No evil will be safe from my nausea, dizziness and fever powers. Nothing. Evil.

My adventures are nothing but failure no matter what combination of skills and weapons I use. If an archer is present I get shot to death. if I fall down or get knocked over it's a death sentence, and I promptly his give into starvation. Before you say it, there are few/no towers nearby so necromancing or whatever is unavailable.

12. trying to kill the same spearman. 12.
I don't care for the new adventure mode combat system. A touch too realistic for my tastes.
You'd think a demigod could take a simple stabbing to the gut, but nooo....

After getting a sensory nerve in my leg torn by an alligator, I decided to get crutch walking up to legendary +5.  I also got Ambushing up to legendary +5 in the process.

And daaamn, it's a game breaker.  Assassinating necromancers in their towers is really fun, and if someone spots you you just run down the stairs and sneak again.  Also the book I've learnt the dark arts from is called "Dying: A New Approach".

God, that book must be Df's bible! (not trying to say anything about any religion, please, dont start a flamewar over this)

Make a beeline for castles. They've usually got a bunch of crap lying around in the central tower that doesn't belong to anyone, including an assortment of weapons and armour. Or if you're feeling a bit more daring, visit the keep in the middle of a town and hit the catacombs underneath it. There's an insane amount of loot down there to be found, although you'll probably get wiped out if you accidentally run into the bandits who live there.

So here I was with 20 or so angry merchants/butchers/vendors all bearing down on me, dozens of dwarves and humans armed with lethal boning and carving knives. I ran from the market a bit and chopped a few down, but when I started moving back towards the market again the whole mob resumed their chase. I hid inside a few buildings and chopped a few down in the doorways, but more and more merchants continued flowing in from the market area to try and murder me.

And at this point I was not even scared. My bronze battle axe had sliced through all the merchants without a single injury, and so I decided to walk out into the middle of the market and go into full rambo mode.

This got me scared again. There had to be at least 50 merchants moving in on me from all sides. Slightly panicked, I started kiting all of them into one huge group. It was fairly effective, and I managed to get the crowd largely under control. After slaying a few more while backpedaling, I started moving towards the north exit of the market.

That was when one of them stabbed me in the foot from behind. They tore the muscle apart, crippling me, and my speed went down to about 400. I thought it was the end! But the miraculous power of the vampire would not fail me yet.

oddy every time the second mummy tryed to bring the head back it died and i got a kill for it.
there was a cat that died and came back as a zomibe,so i cut it in two.
just for a cat i have 51 kills.

i think i need a better weapon as my bronze long sword cant cut them in half.

Fought a titan.  Tip for any budding titans: don't leave the corpses of your victims all over your shrine.  You never know when a necromancer's gonna come along and reanimate them all.  The titan bled to death and as far as I can tell the kill went to one of his former victims, which I find hilarious.  I set off with the titan zombie in tow but eventually lost it to a river, nevermind.

I then did some quests for a nearby town, but then suddenly a farmer began attacking me.  I decided that this was my cue to go into evil necromancer mode, so I slew everyone in their beds and now I'm planning to lead a zombie apocalypse against this world.

Oh yeah, and one of the guys I randomly killed happened to be a vampire judging by his jewellery.  I tried drinking his blood but it didn't work again argh.

hey my legs are fine but i'm trainging crutch walking up anyways, i'm also training swimming and ambushing at the same time!! sneaking in the water with a crutch in my hand! i currently have a macro going that makes my guy spazz out in the water moving northwest and southeast, its pretty funny to watch.
As far as I can tell having +5 crutchwalking leaves me at about the same speed as I was before (although at some point I lost about 300 speed points, maybe because I'm wearing more armour, I dunno).

Upside of modded race with dragon breath: ROFLstomping bandit groups with a nice area attack. also works on those damn dingo hordes I keep running into, as well.

Downside: Dragon breath kills don't count. ;_;
