what is left for me to do ?
« on: March 31, 2008, 06:34:00 am »

within just a week I have become legendary lasher, legendary shield user, legendary armor user, legendary wrestler, legendary ambusher and a grand master thrower.
All my attributes are maxed out
I have killed more than 300 humans, including all their leaders and weapon lords, including a crossbow lord
I have killed more than 100 elves, including all of their leaders
I have killed about 50 dwarves, sadly not including the king, who was killed by a band of troglodytes. I have his corpse tho
I have killed a quadrillion goblins, including every goblin that wasn't a peasant, as well s their spirit of fire demongod

what is left for me to do now ?

I tried to teach myself swimming, but after hours of wading through ocean waves I only gained 70 exp points,a nd thougth that this would be excruciatingly boring

how can I kill my adventurer in a fitting way ?

First, put the shield away and resort to fisticuffs (no grabbing, strangling, or unsavory tactics such as hitting someone when they're down.  Queensberry rules and all that).  When you manage to blast someone with enough force that they blow apart, pick up a suitable limb and use that as your weapon.  Repeat this process, always dropping the last weapon and picking up a new one from your latest kablooey victim.  It is acceptable to use a shield during this period, if you want to.

Also, check out the awards in the "Dwarf-ympics" thread in general discussion and try for a few.  Make sure you read all the posts, as some activities got left out/changed, and it sounds like you need as many things to try as you can get.


As for offing this guy, I'd have to say check out the "Burning Man Festival" award in that thread.

Find the most populated town and try to herd as many people as you can into one building. Next set yourself on fire and unstealth in the middle of that building and try to kill as many people as you can without using any weapons. Thats how I usualy send my adventurers out.

Errr... Invent base-jumping in your universe? Tough dwarfs don't use parachutes anyway.
Other than that... you still have a world to burn, right?

Simply consider suicide.

Try to touch the bottom of the ocean.

Find the highest reachable point in the world, set yourself on fire, and jump off.

Try to swim across the ocean.

Turn on adventurer traps, and kill yourself on a previous fortress' traps.

Try not to be such an overachiever?

As you journey to the center of the world, feel free to read the death announcements of those dwarves that suffer your neglect.

One billion b-balls dribbling simultaneously throughout the galaxy. One trillion b-balls being slam dunked through a hoop throughout the cosmos. I can feel every single b-ball that has ever existed at my fingertips, I can feel their collective knowledge channeling through my veins. Every jumpshot, every rebound and three-pointer, every layup, dunk and free throw.

1) Retire your adventurer.
2) Start a new Dwarf Fortress in a place with adamantine.
3) Capture every megabeast you can.
4) Create an arena filled with weapon traps.
5) Open the pits right as you unleash the megabeasts.
6) One step later abandon the fortress.
7) Return as your adventurer.
8) ???????????
9) Profit!


Not sure if that'll work (do megabeasts and HFS stay on site like that?), but if it does, that's quite the challenge for you.
