5/5 for misleading thread title that will draw everyone in. I should start doing that on every thread I make.

I worry there might be too much overlap with Draconians, so obviously we should remove them too. You start as an undifferentiated dino and become a different type of supersaur at level 7, maybe you switch again at level 14, then again at 21, so you play as different dinosaurs since, that is what the people want. You cannot use throwing nets, instead there has to be "dinosaur nets" added, these are the only items supersaurs can throw, for balance and also to make more unique/special. We don't want to crib too much from Jurassic Park and prehistorical creatures, so I'd recommend doing something off the wall, like give all supersaurs vegetarianism. flavor: they are gentle beasts, but driven too desperate measures by their desire to ascend with an orb.

I think this is about ready for Siegurt or sgrunt or someone to work their magic.

I had to read this thread's title about 3 or 4 times before I noticed it says half elf and not high elf. Well played.

Well at 2nd degree and above you learn how to spell Boards so that they break on their own. :p

I think the real problem is that I decided not to get that minor in Internet Posting. It would have meant staying in college another semester though :| .

Permanent solution: merge all species into one that has random aptitudes all over the board.

Re: Remove Demigod, Human, Hill Orc, Half Elf, Deep Elf

As long as naga and octopode remain, I'm okay with that. And then when you need to streak you can just play Centaur. +1 this proposal preserves all of the good parts of crawl.

Well, we have Wanderer for random skills start. Super-wanderer with similar randomized skill aptitudes could be fun IMHO. I always wanted to try a +4 UC DE or +4 Conjurations Tr.

Better yet, merge XuaXua with Duvessa and create a new unique=

Xuvessa

When entering or exiting LOS, either makes you shout (a complaint) and have Xuvessa go berserk, or have you go berserk when Xuvessa shouts. (50/50 chance)

Also, when you target it with a spell, ability, or ranged weapon, it will blink right behind that randomly appearing wall of OoFs or Killer Klowns (50/50 chance).

When you finally get your Ogre Berserker with that +9, +9 Giant Spiked Club of Speed into melee range, it will blink to another, conveniently locked, thread.

You misunderstand. One does not simply "not be in the game." One is always in the game.

Also, Dowan is a superhero, a la Batman.
