That is one badass horse :o

Here's a note...don't kill the local livestock. Had to abandon a game because I was getting mobbed trying to leave.

I don't know what is more impressive, that dwarves can skip salting and curing meat opting for zombiefication, or that the dark art of necromancy has been twisted to the cause of curing meats.

Toady reports that in the next version it won't be quite as much a problem. Go punch a horse in the face, whenever it's released. Taunt our ancient hooved foes :P

Ungulates are scary, even in real life. They can put most of the weight of their body and muscle mass behind a single kick.

I recall that when I was trying to hunt a deer with a spear for the first time in the latest string of releases, I got close to the deer, got discovered one tile away as I was about to stab it, and it kicked me in the face, shattering my skull and breaking my neck. I suffocated as it pranced off.

One of my friends commented: "And now you know why the bow was a big deal in early human development."

Well, I just waltzed into a dungeon in search of a bandit leader, and came upon a carpwoman axeman. Who promptly tore me to pieces before I could react. That wasn't the end though; as a werewolf, I transformed and grabbed my shield again. She continued to kick my ass, and spilled my guts all over the floor fo the dungeon. I backed off and started grabbing my things while my companion put her down, and bled out before I'd even managed to grab most of it. Intestines are important, if only because a gaping wound in your belly tends to be a good hole for your blood to escape through.

I was doing well, completed a few tasks that I'd been given, then I started to travel to a nearby village where I might get some new tasks. I ended up going around a river, and started to get dehydrated. I had plenty of food and coin from selling all of my dead enemies' gear, so I rested by a river, and ate and drank and did nothing else for several days. On the third night, i was ambushed and murdered by kobolds.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
this is below what is the thin crust of the ocean I'm riding as a bear druid through.
It's a Toothy maw that if I cross will swallow... 5 times I thought I can cross this part, but it just breaks down and encase me...
note I'm closely near the center of the frozen ocean, traveling through means of minecart and new tech that lifts the cart up. Nemus I think you anger some gods.

Started an adventurer, quest to kill a night creature.. crap. Oh well, off we go new companions.

Get to the next town to the SE for a quick snooze before continuing and suddenly the entire town runs out to kill me. After a good 30 minutes of fighting the horde became unbearable, and me and all my followers were dead

My last death was actually quite interesting.

I decided to combat the previous champion of my old Civilization, "Romeo" Packtown the Abysmal General to see just how strong he really was.

Turned out that being a Legendary Speardwarf has it's perks, as he consequently butchered me to death rather quickly. I didn't even stand a chance.

15 worlds, 100+ adventurers, all blood for the Blood God.

A small crab, three hits with the flat of a sword, close combat options and the direction key jammed for a quarter hour later I finally arrive at Fighting skill of over 9,000. Max out iron armour and get some wooden training weapons via looting the labyrinth below the citadel.

Sleep inna wood, goblin bowman shoots through -<<iron leggings>>- with iron arrow sending to one knee. Goblin axeman severs the nerves to both arms, Fighting skill 11,000 useless.

[You are deceased. Press ESC to continue.]

Time to make world number 16 and look for crabs.

I was killed by a stupid weaver. He got one lucky punch on the one time I wasn't wearing my mask.

Start up an adventure, manage to kill quite a few kobolds in a random dungeon and feel pretty confident. I get hungry and decide to kill and butcher a random duck for food. As I attack, some peasant comes out from nowhere, pronounces his name like he's a boss, and knocks me out (this both pissed me off and made me generally interested in how a jobless bum managed to strike down a demigod in one blow).

After I wake up, I'm surrounded by ducks and I'm being nipped to death. I take one step to get my bearings and I bleed out. Death by duck....
