Make iguanas drop hides so you can enchant them into hats

[sardonica]

Make iguanas drop hides so you can enchant them into hats, and make baby alligators drop hides for you to enchant into leather shoes.

This is my number one feature request for .11

[hxy]

Iguana hide would make an ugly hat.. bear fur sounds more like it

[Grimm]

Good comedy suggestions. I'm moving this to CYC.

Make crafting a skill so that various animal bits can be turned into items and sold in shops and bazaars. Sheepskin coats, snakeskin shoes, koboldskin gloves... the higher your skill, the better the price you'll get!

On a related topic, given the Crawl shopkeepers sell but don't buy, where do they get their merchandise from?

Furthermore: are the non-consumables secondhand or new?

Answer to the first question. They take them off dead adventurers.
Answer to the second question. It depends on weather they are an antique shop or not. Antique shops stock secondhand weapons, regular shops stock new weapons made in multi-species sweatshops.

This would open up a new strategy: camp on D:4 and sell items you craft for big $$$. When you need more raw materials, hire orcs or someone to harvest some for you. Eventually you will have enough money to hire a squad of tough monsters who will retrieve the orb for you.

[JeffQyzt]

Actually, we're all just playing the Temple pantheon's orb-retrieval ponzi scheme.

[Grimm]

We're...we're PATSIES. That explains why there's no victory screen: when you emerge into the sunlight you are immediately surrounded by a gang of gods swinging blackjacks. Then it's thunk on your noggin, and when you wake up three hours later the Orb is GONE.

We are just BRAINS in VATS! Why oh why didn't I take the blue potion?!

[Grimm]

New player species: Brain in Vat

[jejorda2]

The blue potion is the window cleaner that Merv Griffin injected into all the people who disappeared from the elevator so their brains would die last and be suitable subjects for the jars in the first place.

Allow fulsome distillation of grapes! MDs might have gone away but their alcohol-ridden heritage shall remain.

[varsovie]

Potion of confusion (booze) should give temporary generation to deep dwarf.

[BlackSheep]

New background idea: Drunken Master

[Grimm]

My favorite combo is BVDM - Brain in Vat Drunken Master. Very powerful.

[Zicher]

My favorite combo is BVDM - Brain in Vat Drunken Master. Very powerful.

Aptitudes, please?
EDIT: Oh - and starting skills too, please?

Always confused, but starts with unarmed of 27. Since you're a brain in a vat, you only get the starting hat.

[Grimm]

Move delay of ∞, so it never moves.

Or movement speed of 0. What do Roxanne and other statues have for these values?

[Grimm]

Roxanne has speed 10.

[Confidence Interval]

But she stops entirely when you put out the red light.

Hey, you get your comedy card taken off you if you don't make that gag.

[Grimm]

THAT'S FUNNY

[Confidence Interval]

I would have said merely whimsical but thank you nonetheless.
