Will getting cursed for desecrating a temple bestow immortality on the defiler?  Otherwise, I don't expect to see many of the werebeasts around in adventure mode.  Well, not unless they breed more of themselves somehow.

Well the idea is that desecrating temples is the way the curse gets into the world. From there the Lycanthropes should be able to spread the curse to their victims.

And victims of their victims and so on, I hope

[PTTG??]

I definitely like the idea of divines having more (any) influence on the world.

It would seem fitting for gods to occasionally "bless" people with benign mutations as well... the people of this town all have a faint yellow aura, being decedents of Krobarr, Slayer of Heed, the Crab of Death.

Well we now know that during worldgen the Gods will...

1) Occasionally offer the _secret_ of immortality/necromancy to historical figures who are seeking those secrets
2) Occasionally _curse_ historical figures who "profane" their temples, turning them into were-creatures.

Presumably each of these things will/can be done by gods tied to certain spheres. And for now these things may only be occurring in worldgen.

So far with this release, apart of occasional bugfixes we have:
- Better Towns
- Dungeons, Sewers, Catacombs and aboveground Graveyards (..or just big Tombs for crowned heads?)
- Improved undead
- Secrets and Curses  (Necromancy, Shape-shifting) In other words "Baby Magic System"
...

I have a feeling that there is something more to add to that list... hmmm...

Temples are back in as well, and they link into the catacombs. Although I suppose this falls under the 'Better Towns' category.

There's already so much going for this update and, as great as every single new thing added at this alarming rate is, I really just want to be able to play it already! Hopefully vampires will be a one day thing like the lycanthropes so the town structures can be fully finished. So much more content to play with. I just can't wait any longer!

Yeah I am really excited about the new Towns/Cities. Imagine as we get further into the Caravan Arc and theres are inns/taverns/manors/temples/palaces, , etc, in addition to the sewers/dungeons/cataboms below. Ability to buy/sales/rent property, hire NPC's to do thing, etc.
   And all the NPC's visibly moving around and doing stuff, etc.

Ok, getting ahead of myself, I'll just take the better towns layouts for now

Well remember right now we have very little ability to even find these places.

Actually I wouldn't mind a "Far view" for Adventure mode when your in a city...

[metime00]

The first thing I'm doing in when the new update comes out is rob a tomb or a crypt or a dungeon, and then proceed to roam around the city eating food from the food stores or beer from there(don't remember if they food or general stores sell alcohol). Livin' large after a crazy adventure! Debauchery!

Yeah an "extended view" map the fills the gap between normal zoomed in mode and Travel mode would be nice, maybe only have it become visible after you explore the area. And it wouldn't show a live view of things, just a "memory shadow" view. But this is getting into suggestions so I'll stop here.

Randomly generated wereforms. Awesome.

"stay back! On the full moon of each month I turn into a... "
"A what!?"
"A WERE-PLUMP-HELMET-MAN!"

DUN DUN DDDDUUUUHHHNNNNNNN!

All these were-creatures, eating the people. When you become a were-plump-helmet-man, people eat you!!!

I figure that's worth a green question.

Are/will gods have a preference for certain curses interactions, or be more or less likely to bestow an interaction at all? Are gods going to receive personality traits like people? If so, when?

[G-Flex]

I'd love it if gods actually changed, say, the materials of creatures' bodies, as either a blessing or a curse or a regional effect.

Example: Regions aligned with a god/force with the "Minerals" sphere get stony skin or organs, or metallic bones, or something like that, or a god with the "fire" sphere turns your blood to something highly flammable.

Skunks confirmed for next release!

[EmeraldWind]

The wereskunk, immortal, went on to terrorize various townspeople and villagers for 150 years and still lurks off in a lair someplace.

This is probably the only were-combination I never thought of before. I mean as far as curses go, this one...  maybe I shouldn't say it. A bit too easy. 

Either way, I wonder if the game creates the were-creatures from the entire list of creatures or does it cull out some. Like Weredragons or werebronze colossus. A weredwarf might also be strange (not a dwarf that is inflicted with werecreature curse, but a human that turns into a dwarf as his curse).

I guess I might as well ask:
Assuming the werecreatures are randomly picked from the normal creature raws, are there any creatures that are excluded from being picked for the curse? For instance, megabeasts, inorganic creatures, or civilized creatures.

That would actually make a pretty freaky horror story. Accidental nightmare fuel?
