Oooh! or possibly Megabeasts that instead of dying come back as some sort of corrupted version of themselves (I can imagine Titans doing that)
Though I believe right now... Powers cannot be mummies and there are no "sentient" Megabeasts and no "social" semimegabeast.
Actually, from the mummy raws, it does look that powers can be mummies. I'm assuming that the IT_FORBIDDEN:SUPERNATURAL in the were and vamp interactions prevents powers from getting those, but mummies lack that tag in the posted raws.
It looks like interactions are set up to allow multiple targets with different effects for each. However, I'm not sure how an interaction would be made self-targeting. Shot in the dark, but maybe SELF instead of LINE_OF_SIGHT in the CDI:TARGET tag?
I also can't tell from those raws how "native" interactions are handled, i.e. a native ability to perform an interaction without getting the ability from a syndrome. Maybe creature effect (CE) stuff can just be included in a creature def as well as a syndrome def?
Toady mentioned when he was on the interaction interface that interactions should be able to target multiple creatures/corpses easily, so that should be possible. For the native interactions, I'm assuming that the is a separate CAN_DO_INTERACTION creature tag below which the CDI tags are written.
Do household items like pots and jars wear out or break? Will there be garbage middens for DF archaelogists to dig through?
Toady has mentioned before that there is some decay of worldgen goods, but we haven't heard any details yet. It doesn't happen afterwards yet, of course. We probably won't see garbage/broken stuff for a while. Archeology was mentioned by Toady as something of a goal when the
game was smaller. I'm not sure what the current stance is there, though the Treasure Hunter and Explorer roles play into that idea.
Why does everyone keep saying that blood should be poisonous, made you ill or whatnot? Blood is actually completely edible and quite nourishing. It's more of a food than drink, though.
Probably because it tends to be seen as gross. But yeah, since there's a number of blood-based foods, blood shouldn't be poisonous by default.
