Necromancer Slab
« on: June 04, 2020, 09:57:16 pm »
Can this lead to necromancers or undead rising up?

A titan came in and splattered most of an undead horde outside along with 2 other sieges that happened by.

Upon cleaning up I found a slab that had the secrets of life and death. How does this differ from a book?

How do I get rid of the damned thing? :)

Unlike a book I don't think you can sell a slab.

Dorfs won't read a slab by themselves. It's only books you need to watch out for.

Yeah unfortunately you can't necromancize anyone with it afaik. Not even if you erect it and a dwarf admires it for art.

Can still sell it to a caravan. Or dump into magma.

For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

If you store it in your fort and switch to adventurer mode, you can use it to become a necromancer I think.

After an adventurer read slab you can make him write manuals. Eventually one will have secrets.
