Title: ANTICLIMAX...
Post by: DwarfyDwarf on December 16, 2010, 09:03:28 pm

I'm not sure if this is spoiler-y or not, sooo.....

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

I got a quest to kill a minotaur. I got together my band of murderersadventurers and we set off. When we got to the site, it was a 3x3 square with pillars in the corners and a staircase downwards in the center. It was a labrinth, And it was extremely winding.

As I was walking around, I kept getting quotes in red saying things such as: "I'll grind your bones into porridge!"
As I rounded a corner, I saw him, and he rattled off his kills. He then charged at me, moving 2 squares a turn to my 1.
He chased me into a deadend, and I thinking I was about to die, walked into him.

I wonder what A minotaur's horn is worth... 

BTW,I have like 2 of every type of weapon(spear, hammer, sword) in my hands( I started out an axeman, but I stole all of my enemies weapons), so I have tons of oppurtunities :D

Yay for random insta-kills!

I killed a Titan that way before, but with a sword.

Less than on-topic: I always imagine the minotaurs yelling "I'll grind you into porridge!" with a Scottish accent for some reason.

Titans are strange, an example of this is titans made of ice or ash, you would expect them to melt/get soggy (provided they are the burnt wood ash, not the tree) when they came in contact with warm water.
