While clearing out a kobold cave me and my companion decide to give a bone carver some lip piercings :)

My current dwarf adventurer has had a major pride boost. After slaughtering 86 out of 93 kobolds in a cave and then doing normal adventurer quests, my dwarf and his human "companions" were sent to slay the third titan of the day, a mountain titan. In a previous battle, this axedwarf had a motor nerve in his left foot cut and as such was wielding a crutch in addition to his axe and shield. As such, we arrive at the mountain shrine and kill the titan in a lengthy battle (all melee companions perished, and I received no injuries whatsoever). As I am searching the shrine's loot, I find some coins from the single dwarf civ on this world in amongst the corpses of at least eight dwarves. Inspecting the coins for my legends mode collection, I discover that my adventurer is on the back of the silver coin! Hopefully the dwarves will put me on next year's gold coin after they learn of the four titans, ettin, dragon, hydra, and countless lesser notables. Also, I was forced to retire this adventurer when the warlord I was tasked to kill refused to show at his camp after several days of waiting and wandering around the local area slaying bandits and wolves.

I think I'm giving up on Adventure mode for awhile.  I started yet ANOTHER adventurer, do the usual proceedings, sneaking about, killing things with stones until I feel confident enough to take down my first bandit camp.  I kill the ENTIRE camp with nothing but the stones I carried with me except one person whose legs and arms were broken from my rocks and I decide "He's laying on the ground, unconscious.  I'll go bash his head in with my axe."  As soon as I walk up to him, he wakes up, somehow dodges my swing, latches onto my throat with his TEETH and proceeds to kill me by biting my throat out.  Yeah...

LOSING is FUN
Just think about the guy having his friends killed off by rocks and that he found the bugger who did it not only broke all his limbs he coming up for the kill/torture the fear of not moving and the fear of what you would do lead to him using his abs to roll past your attacks. Then with a final amount of effort lounge at your throat. Still you died but he's still immobile with all his friends dead loneliness plus lost abilities will creep in to the bandit and sooner or later he will wish for death, maybe at the hands of the next adventurer or from the bogeymen who will no doubt strike the lonely cripple.
The only human error from this is that you wanted to end is suffering up close than to just let the man bleed out or throw more items with a sharp weapon. well at least you learn something from that experience and won't attack someone sleeping up close unless you sure you can take them on awake.

Ill phrase a slightly different perspective.
Lying crippled on the ground, barely conscious, he waited, in pain, expecting death to come on swift wings.
As you approached, he saw his day coming too soon.
But, when you finally drew near, he came forth with a final rush of energy, sprung from the ground, and using his only functional limb tore open your throat, before falling back down, now in more pain.
As you thrashed about with your bludgeoning stone, he continued to try and crawl about...

No, im a terrible person for going into human towns, cutting a female childs breasts off, jamming my knife into her (you know what i mean), then strangling her into unconsciousness, breaking her feet, punching all her teeth out, then kicking her in the chest until she cant breathe properly and leaving like nothing happened.

You are doing it wrong :). There is a reason there are weapons and armors. But yeah, the throwing is fun until it's fixed.

It's even better in genesis, because you can use *nord tooth hunting spear*s instead of rocks.

started the second chapter of the Kogan saga as a Human black lass who died from extreme melting during her one man raid on her first bandits.
she soon was turn into a Night creature(some Troll bride?) and fled to a goblin dark tower.. or what toady made them, hidden underground forts you can't go in but can retire there.
I booted up legends and found out she was place on the second continent west of the one Kogan is and the (undead)fort I made for her, to top it off she separated by a large mass of water.
Story wise this means Uz CheerfulHalls won't know of Kogan and the bronze Quest during her walk of being a Creature of the Night and soon ruler of the west until I can figure out how to cross the map to the other side.
Spoiler: map (click to show/hide)
Though the major problem I might have to face is the whole Conquering lands thing. I wonder how one declare a section of land Conquered in Dwarf fortress?due to the lack of turning a adventurer into a Royal member of a Civ and or expanding or wiping out boundaries there no clear way I can pull off that she took over the lands and every one follows her...
Steal the royal members of the Civ and shove them into one spot. Then turn all the forts they stay in into Dark forts(aka empty planes) after I'm done. I could also drop Gobbo strike squads on top of forts and castles and change the site into a fort on top of a theirs as means of fully capturing.
edit wait never mind she dead for good when I retired her. shucks.

My latest dead adventurer was killed because of Bogeymen.
He was running from them and stumbled upon an open space. Me being the idiot, decided to jump in. little did i know how deep it was. when i finally hit the ground, my neck, spinal cord, and legs immediately broke. I died because of bleed-out.

got JohnnyGhost the bogeyHuman to communicate with Atu InstightStick the vampire and now don't worry about Johnny running away from her. Now I need to worry about Johnny Animal instincts of running away from every thing and that they live on a every every small isle.
