Wow, this is completely strange. So another forgotten beast shows up:
The forgotten beast Anu Sposnuxosun Kosmza has arrived! An enormous rabbit twisted into humanoid form with external ribs. It has has a bloated body. Its dark-peach hair is long and shaggy. Beware its fire!
Immediately, I considered turning my gas chamber into an incineration room. However, it seems there's a small problem. The beast immediately sought out, and engaged, the thriving cave swallow people on my map. And when I say they're thriving, I really mean it. There are TONS of these things in my second cavern layer, more than I've ever seen of a lesser civilization. The swallowfolk have already killed two forgotten beasts, including the first saltmonster as well as an absolutely massive scorpionmonster that had a venomous sting, so this beast went to avenge its fallen brethren.
Though heavily injured, it is prevailing... but here is the problem:
The fire breath doesn't seem to be injuring the swallows.
What. The. Fuck. Fire is fire. It can't be hot or not-hot, right? It's turning the ground to ashes, yes, but no matter how often "Cave Swallow Man/Woman was caught in a cloud of flames!" occurs, I don't see any burning or grease on the ground or anything. No wounds on them seem to be burn-inflicted, no matter how much fire it spews forth. I believe I do have temperature on, seeing as how I'm using the lazy noob pack and made it a point to leave temperature on. Is it just weak fire?
