I did. It gives a pretty significant accuracy boost. I first tested with a heavily modbuffed adventurer who had a base of like 13k accuracy (normally it's closer to 100) and they got up to like 23k I think when Focused! from five or six Unfettered needs. When Unfocused and Distracted they got down to 9k or so. I assume there is a similar skill roll percentage buff.

Elf taverns don't have booze normally, you have to add a few tags to the entity to get them working, plus the reactions to brew it I think?

You can't report the death of an undead creature (http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=9528) so your best bet is to give someone the skull and they'll know it is dead?

yep if they see a part of a dead creature they will know its dead. It results in hilarity sometimes (killing a kid then throwing his nose in a building results in fun)

Is there any way to murder somebody, and prevent people from knowing you did it without hiding/disposing of the body? Or is there no way to beat npc's psionic ability to tell who killed what just by glancing at a corpse/body part?

Also, what Attributes are important for a Bard type character? I checked the wiki, but it seems out of date to the new stuff related to that (like stating that Musicality still has no use. That can't be right... right?). I'd imagine all you need as an instrument player is skill in said instrument type too, right?

I set campfires under the bodies or ignite grass. I use it as part of my cuckoo maneuver to remove a hearthperson when there is no room for me. Tackle a guard off a tower and then burn them with a campfire.

Kinesthetic sense, musicality, focus, creativity I think?

yeah the wiki is way outdated, musicality for singing, high levels in speaker makes arguments easier and telling stories (and poems and everything else) easier, (its the catch all skill) (kind of like what Fighter is to the various weapon skills, but to bard stuff), it also changes your dialogue slightly.

Though musicality is still useless, as can be demonstrated if you try to serenade demons. ;w;

Why can't I butcher corpses of any kind? I'm standing over a kolbold corpse holding his sword and I can't butcher it for skill. I couldn't butcher and of my animal kills either.

Of course not. It's only a laughing matter if you try serenading kobolds instead.

Were the animals you butchered small things like rabbits, small birds, and weasels? I've never tried to butcher a Kobold, but you can't butcher animals of small enough size. try killing something more substantial, like a tame cat in the middle of night, or other unsuspecting wildlife, and see if it works on them.

Okay thank you. I have barely seen any animals. Do you have any tips for finding them?

Edit: I just killed a giant bluejay and I can't butcher it.

I've become infected. Is there any way to get rid of this or does it go away on its own? Is there any way to tell whether it's life-threatening?

It's always life-threatening. An infected toe is liable to kill you.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think you might make it if the infected part gets lopped off.
