On the homepage, he mentions bodyparts. I just though it would be cool if you got the corruption:
You have grwon a third arm! (St:+3 Ch: -2 Ap: -8)
(Made up.) ;pSo that you could weild three weapons or another sheild or whatever. That could get very cool. It would also be funny if body parts were implemented in adom. Picture killing Andy with his own arm...

The body parts thing was in reference to controlling creatures with different bodies to you, although he did mention hypothetical grafting powers for necromancers . . .
Yay for new necromancer powers!

A third arm might be fun. It wouldn't be THAT unbalancing: maybe you could use a third weapon/shield and ring, but couldn't use body armour...

Heh, what about giving yourself another head...
If you're feeling happy, don't worry, it'll go away.

Hmm... Maybe it would be

You have grown a second head (DV -3 Le +5 To:-2 Ap: - 7 Ch: -3 Pe:+3)

Ch would be -ed because you'd be inturrupting yourself. Dv because you'd have two necks, and To because it should be.

Possibilities:

Do you want to wield the blessed female grey elven leg (-3, 1d8+10)?

Select your next meal:
A-Goblin foot
B-3 Blessed Eyes of Black Dragons
C-2 Cursed Female Human Forearms

You engage the Troll Berserker. Do you wish to select a body part to target with your Blessed Dismembering Eternium Sword of Sharpness (+3, 2d10+11) (y/N)?

The Stone Giant Lord grabs your left arm! Your left arm is ripped from its socket! You are bleeding uncontrollably! Your Cursed Small Mithril Shield (+5, +5) falls to the ground! You are stunned by the pain! You are staggering. You are bleeding uncontrollably! The Stone Giant Lord hits you. You are staggering. You are bleeding uncontrollably! The Stone Giant Lord hits you. You are staggering. You are bleeding uncontrollably! The Stone Giant Lord hits you. You die...

I think the leg is rather strong. A body part is to squishy to do tons of damage. I suppose it would count as a club probably, right?

Einherjar: Excellent Adomese, sounds like Biskup himself wrote it. However, the whole getting arms torn off part is a little too freaky for my taste.

Well, I can't see how Biskup could realistically include dismembered body parts in JADE without even a minimum amount of gruesomeness. There must be a way of acquiring body parts aside from finding them on the floor of some dungeon or buying them from a shopkeeper.

Munxip, the human shopkeeper, mumbles: "I'd offer you 857 gold pieces for your blessed heap of 6 human heads."

Maybe there'd be a new skil, Butchering. It would allow you to cut corpses into peices. Different parts would be better cuts of meat, so you could drop the head and toes and keep the legs and arms, to save on weight. There'd be bonuses if you were weilding daggers or knives, and you couldn't do it with some stuff (Like clubs & hammers :) )

You could get nice minced meat with a club or hammer :P Just keep hitting it long enough.

Well, okay, it might not me "nice" but you would be able to eat it and you would be able to leave the head and toes. Perhaps another skill, "beating the shit out of dead corpses" could be introduced. You would then even be able to eat the head and toes without noticing it. More food per corpse.

Nah, that should be a barbarian ability. Coupled with the lvl 12 one.
