The Tavern

masks and horny demons dont go well together, this is a family game.


randomly teleporting on Zot:5 is absolutely terrible.

If you want horny demons, you can play nethack.

I don't even get level 2 on D1, and the first three things I run into on D2 are Robin, Sigmund, and Natasha.

Current formula for damage is ridiculous IMHO.

holy crap, that's terrible. did you worship Xom?

If I wasn't lucky to find a ring of rPois, I would probably stay with the armour just for fun (FoMo).

Crawl, are you trying to tell me we need a "superoctopode" race who can wear 6 amulets?
I've just got 3rd rune, even Vaults 5 have not been visited.

Six heads, permanent confusion.

This is D:3.

Had Unseen horror on d:5 recently.

Ewww. Nothing like still lacking rF when you meet the first guy with Firestorm. He had a bunch of Hill Giant buddies who seemed positively tame by comparison (and not particularly unusual for D10)

quicksilver dragon hide on D1 while playing a DrCj. Prior to this I was playing DE and HE Cj or FE.

Wasn't expecting an ancient lich to target my weakness...Nice randomized spells.

...the very first time I draw a card as a disciple of Nemelex.



Sigh, Lugonu Wrath card in my ornate escape deck. I also got slapped with glow.

...and just HAD to happen when I was in Abyss 3, without another source of rMut.

I find a +2 pair of boots of running in and armour shop as a Formicid... and I'm worshipping Chei!

This is the charater. I will yet have the last laugh.

I wish I could trade 4 wands of teleportation for one wand of hasting... No Haste spell found either and this is a MuVM so no potions. Only hasting and invis were unidentified and of course I got invis from acquirement.

Int 1 and potions of restore abilities have been removed.

At least you can still blink wherever you want.

Until you run out of rations.

Yes, I spammed Haste with 11 Int (Qazlal made me cast it on almost every Pan/Hell floor) and I suspect it is my sad record for food consumption, at least for melee character.

I dip into Elf 1, planning to check for a shop. Shafted into Hall of Blades, start ?tele spam, bail down to 3 as I'm gathering a crowd and cant find a stair up. Land in sight of vault, attempt to withdraw, hit by LCS, ?tele spam. First one lands in the middle of the vault, second one lands in the actual loot chamber. Banished. And probably saved by it to be honest.

All while worshipping Chei with no blink in scroll/spell. Only silver lining was the death of an annihilator and 2 master archers to my shield of reflection.

I don't love it when Mara summons a clone of my MiBe and he's berserking, too...

I get a weapon trove as an unarmed troll.

Yes, clearly a storm dragon is a degenerated version of a death yak.

On my MuCj of Gozag:



Maybe it's time to defect to Ash?

I'm actually horrible at crawl.

You are better than me. I wouldn't even notice that GDA.

And I'm playing a DEBe. I totally need more int to avoid stat death.

the starting dungeon room looks like this:

Are you telling me that you didn't know all yaks evolved from dragons?

There are no unavoidable deaths in crawl.

You find a trove on D13 which requires 5 potions of haste and the potion is still unknown after Lair/Orc.

Evo 9.7
Crawl does not require spoilers to play, you are saying?

Throw/cast/zap something to kill it?

He can't swap to it because of distortion. Gotta hope for the lucky scroll of branding, I guess.

Ah, I thought he was afraid of sending it to the Abyss.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that I was FE.

Scroll of teleportation check is not fun...

I play a Dg
