    I have a sneaking suspicion that Dies Horribly may put that thing's "basically indestructible"-ness to the test.

    Haha, It looks like he's planning to lead that thing back to the village. That will probably be inconvenient for Duv.

    Complains figured it out shortly after the battle with the infected orcs, as chief and ears were climbing up to the dead flower.

    it still doesn't mean the names of dies and chief couldn't have been reversed, Die's real name could have been "Becomes chief", and if Thaco became chief, then he would have died shortly after since he's already an elder.


    Cheif was named as a child don’t forget, by that time Thac0 already was an adult, and most likely had a name.

    As I recall, Chief's name was a result of a conditional vision - Y&B saw two possible courses ahead of her:
    A) Back Thac0 as the next chief. He would be a truly good chief, but the clan would self destruct in civil war because too many goblins would back the previous chief's son.
    B) Back the previous chief's son as the next chief. He would be a poor chief, letting the clan lapse into weakness and obscurity, but the clan would unite behind him and stay whole and intact.

    She saw this when she was naming the newly born son of the old chief, and named him 'Chief' as a way of making her choice between these two options and giving it the best possible chance of sticking.

    They obviously didn't study Evil Overlord's List as was proven times and times again. There was a point about treating your beasties nicely, so they won't try to rip you a new one on the first chance.

    I guess whoever it was that became the wall really didn't have much else to live for as a human.


    The wall seems very content with being a wall. no pining for his old body that i've seen.

    He got all of one comic, we don't really know much about him. Maybe he pines for his old body all the time, which is why no one wants to talk to him.

    This batch isn't half-bad, actually. It's not terribly balanced, but the only thing approaching terrible is Thunt's over-enjoyment of excessively complicated percentile based tables-in-tables, with the replicating armor.

    I might actually use the Shield as part of the "reward" for completing a massive dungeon crawl I'm creating for my group at the moment... seems like the perfect artifact/major magic item to spark in-character debate over whether to keep it or not

    I may also use a Switchbeast and/or a Lesser Finger Horror (probably tweaked to make it less of a glass cannon) as monsters in the dungeon; anyone know where I can find Thunt's stats for Mr. Fingers?

    Yeah, but it said somebody else had fixed it, so we'd still have good stats.
