I think it's supposed to be a "moleman"
« on: October 31, 2007, 05:56:00 pm »
But my dwarves are busy fleeing a olmman.

Now that I think about it, I think I spotted some olm leather or something earler.

I have some giant olm leather.  Even if an olm isn't a mole, it would be nice to know what an olm is.

Check the Wikipedia Article.  It's kind of interesting: The short version is that it's a salamander with very humanlike skin, or at least its hide looks like ours (I use 'ours' loosely, since many of us here may or may not be human).  It's sometimes called a Humanfish...  Very cute, Toady!  I knew he played with words like a pro, but that's pretty good.

I wonder where he heard of it, though.  It doesn't seem like a common creature.

Just watch, Toady hadn't heard of Olms, and it's really a misspelling....  :D
