Bad day for the B12Champs in Pandemonium,  2 characters lost in short order there.

My DDPr was kinda running out of wiggle room, 8 mp left at the end.  At least I got Lom Lobon, and the magic rune out of it though.  I didn't realize until much later that I still had my rMut amulet on instead of my WARD amulet, I was so used to never taking off the WARD that i forgot to put it back on when i pulled out of slime pits.

Got 7 runes at least, and got a bit further than my DDHe from last year.  Funny that it started just as an attempt to steal a race combo high score from Eli.

thats one of the reasons i prefer confuse to sleep with spen, you can just confuse them and let them walk into that deep water that surrounds them, or shoot eachother.

My Deep Dwarf Priest is doing well, i've got 3 runes and some good AC:

I've never done a full 15 rune run, I'm wondering if I should transfer over to TSO, and if I do will I be getting enough healing from my kills in all of the late branches?  I'm guessing I should clear the main dungeon and hall of blades before converting, anything else that won't be chock full of demons and undead? 

I also need to find some sort of tele control, I have tele null, but thats not a very good solution.

I'd think it better to just kill the other guy. Eventually, nobody will be fooled anymore.

at that point then you just put on your regular knife and backstab to your heart's content, as nobody is fooled by the spy suddenly uncloaking in their midst.  It'd be a utility item, not a pew pew item.  It would be great for taking out engineer nests.

Noooo!!!

I lost my HaTm who had the following mutations:

                    Innate Abilities, Weirdness & Mutations

You are small and have problems with some larger weapons.
You have a slow metabolism.
You have very sharp teeth.
Your digestive system is specialised to digest meat.
Your muscles are flexible, but weak (Str -1, Dex +1).
Your muscles are strong (Str +1).
You can control translocations.

I foolishly donned some clunky fire resist gear to take down Azrael, and then got a little lax on keeping my hp up, dying to a double hit... there's no excuse, i had control teleport and a tele ring on...........

I'm grabbing the combo score for Deep Dwarf Wanderer right now, in a very harrowing game.  A distinct lack of gear has my ability to kill anything quite hampered, I didn't find a branded axe until after clearing the lair and the dungeon to lvl 15, at which point i caved and bought a scroll of aquirement and luckily got one.  I can't do much at all in shoals, and have snake pit cleared until the last level, going back and doing elves now, hopefully i'll get some good items there.

Fun times in elven halls, I ran into Wayne in an open room with a bunch of elves around him, i saw an unexplored one tile hallway a bit away so i headed towards it, only to find a swarm of killer bees pouring out of it, preventing me from getting into the hall, by that time the elves had closed off my other route out. after 6 low hit point warnings (Wayne was chopping me with his frozen axe, with which he one shot blue death i summoned at the start of the fight) I finally cut the crap and spawned 4 greater servants in short order, 3 blue deaths and 1 balrog later I had this:


I burned a lot of healing items, I think i'm going to wrap it up for tonight and take a break.

Lost my Spriggan Enchanter, Had some really nice luck going until i picked up berserker mutation and lost half my good mutations trying to cure it.  Got two runes, and had a shit ton of defense, sadly i got berserked while fighting borris and some combining slimes
