Well, that's it. I'm insane now. I read your post, MottledPetrel, and now I'm insane. I hope it's at least the cool artist or supervillain kind of insane and not anything sad or violent. Either way, I'm crazy now and it's your fault. I hope you're happy.

Well, IIRC, there's melancholy (wandering around trying to end your life via cliff/drowning/magma until you die of thirst), berserk (homicidal rage type), and catatonic (stare into space indefinitely while your body slowly rots into nothingness.)

Not a particularly promising set of options, and the last happens very rarely (to me, anyways).

EDIT: Seems I forgot about stark raving mad. For some inexplicable reason. You will strip off all your clothes and run around babbling aimlessly until you come by a random troll that wandered up from the caverns. Truly the way for a dwarf to go.

At this point I'm honestly not sure what pushed you over the edge, there was a lot in that update that could have been the culprit.
Do it or no balls.
Expect screenshots of the books at the tower sometime between tomorrow and this weekend.

Lunar fine, and all of the liaisons left before I could even talk to them.


Bottom left is us, top right is the target. At this point it might not even be a necromancer's tower because there are just so many secrets in this modpack.

Take your bets boys, I'll put a poll up for which book we should specifically raid for after I get a few of your suggestions as to which ones hold the secrets we desire.

If any of those contain secrets, I think the ones with "The Obsession" seems suspicious.

Unusual obsession sounds so ambiguous. It could be either about someone's obsession with mortality, but at the same time it could be about someone becoming a rock collector. Not a necromancy book though.

Spurtvulture seems likely to be a slab.

Yeah, but slabs can only be read by adventurers, not fort mode dwarves, at least not as far as I know.

    There are several books written about The Tower, maybe that's the secret to necromantic power?

I would take them all if I could, but I only have access to the raid function, not the pillage or raze. I was thinking I could go on a mission for a specific book, but now the wiki is telling me they'll just steal whatever they feel like, but artifacts first. Also, for a little extra help, a necromantic book must contain at least one of these following words according to the wiki: Annihilation, Bereavement, Death, Demise, Departure, Doom, Dying, Eternal Rest, Expiration, Extinction, Mortality, Immortality, Loss, Oblivion, Parting, Ruin, Ruination, Sleep, the Afterlife, the End, the Grave. Also, I had never considered that fortress mode creatures can't read slabs, that might become a problem because adventure mode doesn't work anymore.
