Wow. A Cream Demon. That puts so many bad images in my head.

And nah, I think the trudge down there is half the fun. Makes it more rewarding in my opinion.

I see, Meanmelter, I'll have to test this. I was mostly putting what I thought was absolutely necessary. Like, Swimming.

So, I tediously awaited the arrival of the dwarven caravan (I'm set up on a island, see)... And, they came. My fingers tingled, my nose twitched and my toes tickled... they came around the corner, over my bridge... Into my courtyard... Onto my trade depot...

Then everything near it exploded in a cloud of blood.

That is indeed a very nice underworld theme...   Enough to inspire me to look for a few more.

This is a classic, but it's a little more on-edge than Behold the Darkness.

Actually, a lot of the theme music from Diablo could probably apply.  I mean, just listen to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbJcv2w2soY


Although, again, this stuff is a little more aciton-oriented.  If you feel fine just exploring around in a relatively docile cavern, it won't work too well.  If you're tense, scared for your life and fighting off ambush after ambush...  It's gold.

EDIT:  Actually, "Dungeon" is probably more suitable than "Caves".  "Catacombs" is also quite nice.

Thanks Kagus. =D

Behold the Darkness just felt like an overall exploration theme, like, traveling through the dark, not knowing what you'll see.

Like, if I was under attack by swarms of creatures, I would probably try to change it up to something more action orientated.

Mythos: Good luck. Did you see any,

Here is an Image I took before I am about to (re-enter) the caves, I am going in with proficient dodge,striker, and adept fighter. the only defense skill i have is shield, which I don't have.

He flashes a mortal wound, and he is vomiting like a mad-man.

Well, I'm gonna be a moron and wander into the underworld without much training. Human axeman. I wandered around for a bit and killed some troglodytes, a cave croc or two, and such, got a dwarf ally, killed him and sold his stuff for better stuff and like 100 food, and am now ready to get my ass handed to me.

I'll keep you posted.

Oh wow, you're right, Meanmelter. O:

Does Striking use the Wrestling command menu? If it does, that would be really useful.

Sounds fun, Frog Warrior. Keep us updated. =D

also, don't create a puncher with proficient armor or shield, as you will only get rope reed clothing.

Sure. It's a human swordsman, with a full set of exceptional quality bronze gear. Should be good enough to get you through, I made it to the pits. Just a tip:

I can't think of any free file uploaders, are you aware of one?
