I'm having trouble starting adventure mode. How do I really get started? Right now I can't do anything but wander around.

[MasterFancyPants]

That's kind of all you do... You can press "k" to talk to people for quests and recruiting, but that's about it.

That's kind of all you do... You can press "k" to talk to people for quests and recruiting, but that's about it.

thats not true, you can have a lot of funsicles in torture...adventure mode

example 1. cut off limbs, fingers whatnot of enemies and proceed to bash said enemies with it
           2. wrestle somebody down beside a tree, set the tree on fire and read descriptions of said somebody as fire takes it's effect
           3. hack someones stomach, spill their guts, bite said guts aaaand you guessed it! tear it off, you could also hack said guts, make it sail off in an arc, and proceed to strangle said someone with it
         
           
and much...much more

but in terms of an ultimate in-game end goal, there is none, except for the ones you set..whether it be ridding the world of a civilization of elves and shit, or collecting the severed heads of your enemies by species: head of a human, goblin, kobold, troglodyte, etc etc

[KarolineDianne]

Yes, you can do all those things, but I'm not so sure that was the question.

First, talk to someone. press k and talk to someone. Ask them about 'service', and they'll usually give you a quest.

Press Q to bring up the quest log, then z to zoom to the location. This will show you where to go.

Press T to travel, and go there. Make sure not to wander alone at night, sleep in towns or castles.

Speaking of castles, recruit soldiers there by asking them to join you. They're often bored and suicidal enough to follow you to their deaths.

When the quest is done, gather any loot that's useful, or decent enough to sell, and go back to a town to report the success.

Head to towns with yellow squares to go to shops and buy/sell things.

Rinse, repeat.

Have FUN.

I find that strangling someone with their own guts doesn't work, as they always bleed out from the wound. However, strangling someone with their MOTHER'S guts DOES work.

Also do not attempt to find any elves, dwarves or goblins. They are hiding from you fortresses and all, and they are very good at it.

You can also try to find a cave and get lost hopelessly explore the underground. Using legends historical maps or dwarf mode embark can let you find kobold caves. The later only if you enabled caves to be visible before worldgen.

[lowbart]

Can you use Legends to find those underground artifact shrines or whatever they're called? Most cavern exploration in adventure mode seems like endlessly wandering miles and miles of empty caves.

I can't build a fortress to mine down to a spoiler fortress until my current favorite adventurer gets killed, so that's my best current idea for getting a weapon better than my +iron battle axe+.

You can mod in a dummy entity tha allows you to play adventure mode as demons and night creatures and other such randomly generated fellows.

[Kamamura]

Just awaken that dreaming homicidal maniac inside you and... have FUN!!!
