Dusty Plains [NESW]
   Strong winds, the prevailing force in this area, billow up red dust that
settles onto everything in sight. The ground is mottled with clumps of red
dirt, which the winds scatter about endlessly. According to legend, it was
just centuries ago that this land supported surprisingly abundant flora and
fauna. Today, only a few thorny plants, growing in tiny crevices, remain.
A dusty stone bola lies here, its fist-sized stones held together by sinew.
A small-headed arrow with a shaft of agafari wood lies here.
A couple of bodies of a brick-red desert tarantula are here.
A ruined tent camp lies among the plains, half-buried in sand.
A brick-red, low-bodied tarantula lies close to the sands.
A brick-red, low-bodied tarantula lies close to the sands.
A large war beetle crawls about, struggling against its chitin harness.
- it is carrying a bahamet-embroidered leather backpack.
The very tall male wearing a dusty bone, black-painted hawk mask is standing here, bleeding profusely.
A brick-red desert tarantula is here, fighting you.
A brick-red desert tarantula is here, fighting you.
A large war beetle crawls about, struggling against its chitin harness.
- it is carrying a bone-studded backpack.
The tall and thin female wearing a dusty gauzy scarlet cotton veil lies on the ground stunned, unable to move.
A hooked-beak siltflyer lies here mortally wounded, on the verge of death.
A brick-red desert tarantula is here, fighting you.
A brick-red desert tarantula is sleeping here, bleeding profusely.
A war beetle is reclining here.
- it is carrying a bone-studded backpack.
A war beetle is reclining here, looking a bit winded.[/quote]

If those spiders could post in this thread they'd be able to put up an epic kill roster.

Whelp, the spiders all definitely died. The female there got dragged off by someone else after being narrowly rescued. Brought back to life by Dream's bandage-work.

It was a pretty awesome mission altogether.

[Rogerthat]

MMHMM thanks. Now its all ruined  .
But now we must meet IC and give me ice

[Synthesis]

Pshaw, tarantulas.

Someone else and I killed something like eight of them and a siltflyer by ourselves (no magick involved).

And that was only when I was at day 25.  He went on for about 35 more.  Toward the end, I could tank 4 of them without even getting hit.

That would be roughly what was accomplished up there.

[Armaddict]

Had a dwarf warrior who could kill a Mek, but died to a Bamuk.

I always suspected an imm tweaked it to punish me for powergaming (it happened from time to time, back then), but was assured it wasn't the case.  Now I think some magicker buffed the hell out of it. XD

I beleive I was 1 room north as old Wet Dream with 14hp and 3 spiders chasing me? Bolted in to grab the mortalled wounded lass and run out, fleeing from spiders and dragging my damsel in distress. Oh, the good old days.

I seem to remember Prophet taking on eight spiders all at once, to rescue two Allanaki militia members.

[Barzalene]

Damn, I loved Prophet.

ED and Co pushed spiders to such extinction in a certain scary location that their evolution jumpstarted and turned them into a superior, armored fighting machine... that or maybe staff thought we should calm down a bit on the badassness.

Let's see a merchant house top that.

That or maybe SOMETHING ELSE!

Shit.

Sanvean gave me my first karma.

Halaster took it away. (My fault.)

Then I think Sanvean gave it back again. 


Later on Halaster gave me karma too.   

[a strange shadow]

Reminded of this by another thread.

An assassin of mine was given a handful of contracts over her lifetime, and each one was actually completed by someone else. She took all the credit (and all the pay) for various reasons involving luck, charisma, political machinations and flat-out lying.

The few times she did actually kill someone for her own reasons, public opinion was that it was someone else who put the knife in.

I found it hilarious (and fitting).

I pulled one of these, before. Same race & wouldn't you know? Sparring. Pulled off an emote similar to the one below. Fun times

emote jumps at ~giant, stepping up off of ^giant kneecap and uppercutting ^giant massive jaw.

I wrote up & submitted a description for an inking for one tribe that ended up being used by others.

I seem to remember Prophet taking on eight spiders all at once, to rescue two Allanaki militia members.

Was that when Prophet and some Malarn stumps went on a rescue bid?

[Sakra]

Was part of a crack team that rescued a half-giants inix from a REAL giant once. The giant was not happy to lose her snack.

Yep. They might have been Tors that we went after. I can't remember.

[X-D]

There have been so many spider episodes, I am honestly not remembering that one.

[FantasyWriter]

I miss when it was just spiders
