One of my dwarves just was possessed by a fey mood, and then he went and made a lead axe called ERARNGUMRASH, or lead-sickness. the axe was made of LEAD.

[The Doctor]

...
Kay.


Point being?

[Josephus]

Dude, lead-poisoning killed the Roman Empire. This is bad news.

[Urist Imiknorris]

Obviously the dwarf wants the enemies to get lead poisoning.

[namragog]

yes.

[namragog]

I think mister lead is dead now. fell off a cliff or something. I put all of my dead people on top of a mountain in a strange pattern. it looks like this now.

You realize, of course, that lead poisoning causes bizarre behavior, up to and including mysterious suicidal tendencies.

FOR THE LOVE OF DORF, THROW THAT AXE AWAY.

[Aklyon]

FOR THE LOVE OF DORF, THROW THAT AXE AWAY.

But its already killed someone and named, so i doubt it'll just let itself be flung into the magma sea.

We need a Dwarven Evil Artifact Magma-Powered Smasher.

[namragog]

mmm... yes..

*plotting from throne*

[namragog]

what should I do? i also now have a cabinet made of wood, that depicts the same cabinet, which depicts the same cabinet, which depicts the same cabinet, which depicts the same cabinet, which depicts the same cabinet, which depicts the same cabinet...

AAAAAAGGGHHHRRRAAAAGGHHHH.....

wow.seriously?

[The Doctor]

Recursion is known.


There is no lead poisoning in the game, don't worry.


Besides, even if there was, you're using it on ENEMIES, who you'd WANT to poison, no?

[Ilmoran]

Pretty sure the enemy will die from being hacked to pieces long before feeling any effect of lead poisoning, whereas the wielder will be continually absorbing small amounts (if it doesn't have a handle of a different material) as they build up to toxic amounts and he succumbs to the symptoms.

He won't ever succumb. continually absorbing it will build up quite a resistance.

[namragog]

Ilmoran, yes, that is exactly what I was thinking. also what about the CaBiNeT? WoOoOoO....

[namragog]

Aklyon is also right. maybe the lead thinger is not that bad after all. the cabinet still really freaks me out though.
