DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Nik Pearlday: How does this happen!?
« on: March 31, 2012, 07:52:29 am »
I am a considerably well equipped necromancer, sent on a quest to kill a man called Nik Pearlday in the dungeon of the nearby city. I find Nik, and his introduction goes as such.

"I am Nik Pearlday! Slayer of Nik Pearlday [generic status of death.]. Murderer of Nik Pearlday [another]. Slayer of Nik Pearlday [another.]. Prepare to die!"

Wait.. So Nik Pearlday, killed himself thrice, then decided to hide out in the dungeon of a keep!? How has he slain himself three times!? What!? Also, that man was SKILLED with a crossbow, nearly killing me in one shot, but that's unrelated.

DF General Discussion / Bronze Colossi -> Polar Bear Statue!?
« on: August 29, 2011, 12:18:42 am »
I was messing around in the Arena today, making two teams of 5 bronze colossi fight each other... Eventually this got boring as the only action was the occasional flying toe or ear, so I decided to spice things up a bit, by adding a dragon to the mix. The dragon began toasting the bronze colossi, and when they eventually melted to death, they became these statues:

Well, there's the polar bear and there's a giraffe statue. What I'm wondering is... WTF? Did Toady attempt to hide this as an easter egg, or do the dragons just like polar bears and giraffes, and so they turn their enemies into them?

This is just too awesome NOT to share, so I figured somebody else may get a laugh out of it.

DF Adventure Mode Discussion / Dropped Items
« on: August 14, 2011, 11:23:53 pm »
Okay, I was wondering about dropped items in DF adventure mode in relation to fortress mode.

If I were to drop an item in the wilderness will I be able to:

A: (memorizing the location) come back and find it in the same place?

B: (still memorizing the location) create a fortress on that location and find the item lying on the ground?
