Tentacle teeth, wut?.....

[Pyrefly]

I'm getting killed by the same Roc. Repeatedly. It's not about the quest anymore, it's about the frustration of 'WHY WON'T YOU DIE?!' that I'm attacking it now.

[StagnantSoul]

Yes! After two irl days of training my axeman up to legendary axe wielder, and fighting against trolls for practice, I slew a hydra one on one! The bastard claimed a foot though. And somehow, my shield is missing. But I killed it! It's head is too heavy to lift though. Dammit.

EDIT: And now, while finishing off a swamp titan, a Bronze Colossus shows up. Could this day get any better?

[Robsoie]

You can butcher the hydra corpse, you should obtain a skull, one of my character managed to bring back a hydra skull (though he was slowed down a lot) to the home castle

[StagnantSoul]

Hoping this bronze statue finds a good home. Going to try and leave it in my currently retired fortress. It's a statue of forgotten beasts.

EDIT: BRING IT ON, DRAGON!

EDIT: I was one hitted... But the dragon took a stab to the head and died directly after! That statue will never reach my fortress...

So, on a quest to become a necromancer, can't convince anyone to give me a quest.  Also I found a multicultural army of goblins, elves, dwarves, and humans. Yeah, all of them. And hell-bent on world domination, it seems.

I have discovered that if you drop stuff on people, those that witnessed the death by falling object don't get angry at me.

How exactly do you drop the objects on them?

Drop items while climbing, maybe?

Currently trying to get bitten by a wererhino, two attempts so far have resulted in the wererhino dying.

Edit: Got my hand bitten off, does that count? edit: no it does not.

Edit: After a couple tries, I got bitten (and then leg ripped off), so I thought it worked, but apparently not, unfortunately, I saved the game thinking it had worked. Theres some wereiguanas around that I was planning on using as a second choice, or maybe a werearmadillo, now I just need to find a crutch somewhere.

Got a full 12 group of companions, all bow and crossbowmen, all to hunt down a vampire and drink it's blood. Found one on a road at night, it dodged all twelve bolts and the thrown pick, I went into combat with it, got a few stabs in the heart, and somehow decapitated him. Yay! Drank his blood, picked some up just in case, and fast travelled away. Not ten seconds laster... "You have found a lair!" I go back to normal, go into the lair, only to be lit on fire by a dragon, then bit in half. Crépe.

Oof, got caught by this bug: http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=7782

I wonder why nobody else has reported it or mentioned it on the forums? Obviously it's rare, but some people will run into it eventually.

Found out that cave adaption works on adventurers as well. Had a dwarf who traveled/lived exclusively underground for several weeks; but in the tunnel to a goblin site he stopped for food, and was mysteriously transported to the surface, just about at dawn. Sun comes up - vomit goes everywhere. Speed slowed to 1/3. Crawled into a tower to rest. Killed by a lasher.

Wasn't a fruitless life, though. At one point I slew the entire nobility of the kingdom, who for some reason were all in the same fortress - royal banquet, maybe?

I found the town of Arrowpresent, which had been destroyed and it's inhabitants routed by a hydra about a century ago. It was however claimed by some kobolds. Okay, nothing out of the ordinary there. I decided to explore it and it's nothing remarkable - the town is largely deserted. I found the 'temple' there (The Beloved Temple), which turned out to literally just be a single corridor UNDERNEATH a path in the town filled with engravings named in the kobold utterances. Cool. So I then explore the keep, lo and behold it's empty. Determined to find some signs of life I scale one of the wall-towers of the keep and at the top I find the townsfolk...

Loads of kobold priests. Just priests.
Literally all there is in this town is a keep (with kobold priests standing atop the walls, no doubt in worship), a temple (which is just a corridor that's not even sealed properly) and some unused markets (with their goods lying out in the open. It's all meat.)

I think I found some kind of kobold Shangri-La.

EDIT: Oh by the way there's loads of giant brown-recluse webs everywhere. A few in the keep and then in the area surrounding the town just out in the fields. Is it... their god?

EDIT II: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO: The Beloved Temple is ruled by The Faith of Suitors who worship Testri the Fragrant Drums, a human god of lust, originally a human group formed in 21. After the human population of Arrowpresent was flushed from the site however the kobold Muthe Workentries became the Sacred Blush of the Faith of Suitors. Every other kobold that became a priest of the Faith of Suitors also has a last name, something I though wasn't possible for kobolds unless they were given a language.

FUUUUUUU! The angel guardians of this vault are fire based and throw fireballs AND breathe fire, even though I blocked the fire, the fireball set me on fire anyway.

I made myself into a wereiguana and I'm trying to get a demon to summon and use to attack a necro tower. Initially, I saw that the servants were water based, so I thought, okay, easy, but NOOOO, it just had to have fire based guardians.

I did make a save to before I went in, so I can go back to that. though maybe I'll see if removing the waterskins and the backpack helps.

Edit: Nope, still get caught on fire.

Theres several other vaults in this worlgen that I can use anyway, and that vault is the only one with those specific guardians.
