300 human/elf/dwarf/goblin/kobold bodies 20 random animal/fish/bird bodies and 3 dragon bodies all in one backpack. fun stuff.

From what I've heard, it only works in fort mode.

You can make Dwarfmode autosave every season, but Adventure mode currently requires you to quit then reload to save.

It's supposed to be perma-death.

Hopefully it will become an option later on. (Along the ability to carry over an adventurer between worlds and choosing what he looks like)

Try changing the print mode on the init file to see if it helps with the crashing.

Are you by any chance playing with the genesis mod? because yeah that crashes a lot for me too, the only way to prevent losing too much is to save every 10 minutes or so, vanilla works perfectly though.
