Classes are a way of organizing creatures, and can be used to specify what creatures an interaction can and cannot affect. Vermin cannot be affected by interactions, to my knowledge, but it would still be helpful to categorize them, in case we need a list of certain types of creatures for whatever reason.

Yes, but they are made of crystal so they should just need inorganic, right?

Probably also "Crystalline", for obvious reasons.

Generally, when one is conducting an experiment, it is worth noting that the observers went insane, killed each other, and then rose from the dead.
It's like DF inhaled a peanut.

The ice material I am using has shown itself to be a tad overpowered.
Once I get it nerfed i can move on

your snow golems literally melt when the weather's above freezing. I think it's fine.

Yes but when the weather is cold they are practically invincible currently. They dont melt till one degree above cave temps.

I got them nerfed a bit. It no longer takes 5 halflings to defeat one unarmored ice golem thing.

Or psionics, horsemen, or dragons? Or the brute-strength Treelords and panserblekks?

Adding in bacon dragons as a crunchy and delicious mode of defense now. Should they have the ability to fire bacon as a boulder or just the fat as a liquid?

As strange as our mod currently is, the tone isn't so much batshit crazy adventure time random. Although, perhaps we should add "bacon" to the material/tissue templates that most fleshy creatures use, so that butchering will yield bacon specifically? Think about it: "dragon bacon," "halfling bacon," "maneater bacon," "elf bacon," etc.

That sounds good, but why not just make a reaction "Process flesh to bacon" so we can still have other meats? Also... I don't know when ( or if ) I'll get back to working on my contributions, anyone want me to just send in the unfinished raws and work them instead?
