What was your very first corruption? Mine was 10 additional eyes...

Mine was Poisonous Hands, which ended up killing said character (he starved in the wilderness).

I had hefty hooves, which seemed good at the time because i was used to Nethack and kicking was how i dealt with everything.
Its such a stress reliver when you finally kill a tough enemy and then you just kick the corpse around the dungeon :D

Teleportation, without teleportation control. I got hit too many times by a chaos brother in the open level just before dwarf village. I died, because I *always* teleported when I was just a few steps away from the stairs. I was overwhelmed by the monsters eventually. yay.

I had the "Antennae sprout from your head and explore your surrondings" as my first corruption. I just saw sections of dungeon show up randomly and I just thought "What the heck is going on?", like it was a bug or something. This was, of course, before I had any idea about corruptions...


You want to fight? Fight me! HAHAHA

My first corruption was that apish one. I was an orcish healer at the time so it was pretty good.
Had 70 something strength by the time I died.

Vennom: to find out for yourself, find a corruption trap. They look like this:

#######
..^@&..
#######
(yes I'm having fun with this! a-ha Fisty, I'll lead you through that corruption trap many times and turn you into a WMoPC!) Okay now that doesn't look too good but anyway a purple ^. After you've found one stand on it and press ctrl+t to set it off many many times. It's free corruption! Don't do it with a good character because it will ruin your char. Corruption is bad.

IMO, bad and annoying ones are :
  • poisoned hands
  • living mana battery
  • stiffened muscles
  • teleport(if you don't have teleport control that is)
  • regenaration(it lowers dex over time)

If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

And the unholy aura is also very annoying. :( TB said that he fixed the bug with that corruption but he didn't. Shopkeepers still think you as thief if they see you with that corruption. =Z

Regeneration is *really* bad, because you get a *lot* of scars. And chicks don't dig scars in this game... ^_^
