So how would I edit the raws for a curse removal? Modifying anything in the interaction_examples folder for that save doesn't seem to affect the loaded game.

How about a moat instead of a wall? You could fill it with whatever; magma, water, crocodiles, etc; and shoot across it. I tried this with a doomed embark but didn't finish before the tantrum spiral.

I got Observer to Legendary thanks to those traps, and many weapon skills trained thanks to the zombies. Unfortunately, I also got a nasty curse. I don't recall any worthwhile loot, but I may have picked up one of my weapons from a tomb.

I don't know if this is a bug or a lingering effect of mummy curses, but very often I'd get a streak of complete failures to all skills -- I get detected sneaking, miss all attacks and shield isn't used. If I wander around it will pass and skills will work normally, but for about a minute my adventurer is completely helpless.

I carry vampire blood around for emergencys, like almost being dehydrated or starveing to death or mabye i need to attack a tougher person. I think of the blood as...medicine.

That's friggin brilliant. Good plan, man.

Oh, holy shit. I was not prepared for this.

I was only approaching the freakshack when I heard the calls to battle from...four, six, eight, nine, ten, then more, a hell of a lot more than the eight I was promised. So I started to work on them, and managed to decapitate two in one shot before I was detected. There's no way I could find cover against that many, not without running further away than I want to, so I weaved around the trees and lured them in one by one, doing some pretty swift execution for the little axe skill I had. It was working out well enough that I didn't even bother to sneak, and just hacked away, going for the headshots and getting them if not immediately then eventually.

When I finally found no one chasing me, I walked around counting heads, all of which were cleanly separate from the bodies, I found 13. That warlord bastard lied to me! Now I regret letting the treacherous spunkwad live when he was in arm's reach. Oh well. I was getting drowsy, so I headed inside for sleep first, then inventory the no doubt bountiful loot in the morning.

As soon as the door opened, another pack of night trolls were telling me how awesome they were. I backed away, and this time I went for the stealth. Again, I only got two before they detected me, and I had to lure them out one at a time, at least another 6 but by that point I stopped counting.  When there was a handful left inside -- again, I stopped counting, so that might be a handful for someone who has seven or eight fingers -- I was able to gradually whack them stealthily.

If any adventurer deserves a rest after evicting all those trolls...but instead of sleeping, I circled around to survey the site and memorize the layout. And yet another night troll came at me, a bride of someone whose marriage was probably annulled by the sharp end of an axe. I counseled her to get over it with the same axe.

I still haven't looked at the loot or bodies, but my axe has a headcount of 30 kills, all of them night trolls. See for yourself:

To put it another way, I'm dating werebeasts to find a wereform I want to go steady with. Unfortunately the last one was a weregopher. After it's introductory boast, it just sat there. I came out of hiding and waited, and it did nothing. I waited more and it did nothing. I ran circles around it and it did nothing. I whacked it once with a shortsword and it never did nothing again.
