We are talking *SERIOUS* poisoning here, despite beeng resistant to posion, casting "Slow pison" only two rounds ago and "Cure serious wounds" the last round the posion dammage took her down to -2 HP, the spiders didn't even hit her, the last messages where: "You feel much better". "You feel the poison cruising though your veins". "You die..." So we are talking at LEAST 30 HP worth of poson dammage, WHILE resistant, she must have had posion squirting out of her ears by the end there... I should have teleported away much sooner, by the time I did there was already way to much poson in her system. Another stupid thing was that I had a fairly good armor and lots of uncurse scrolls handy, so I guess that's yet another character I can chalk up to stupid risk taking. Running around "Strained!" was probably not a stroke of genious either, but I wanted to get as much itendified as possible after finishing the dwarf quest (was looking for a kobold shieftan to slay). I'm gettign to like necromancers though, Ghoul slaves rock! My pal Billy wiped the floor with just about anything we ran across, and unlike "regular" companions slaves do as they are told all the time, wich is great when you want to get some exp for yourself or keep them out of hams way when you kick down doors. Ajusting in power is also nice because you don't have to share exp with them (unless you want them even more powerfull). Unfortunately Billy by hill-orc sergant ghoul was smashed by a Ogre lord I ran into just abowe dwarftown (yikes!), the same Ogre lord took down 90% of my HP in one hit, so I promptly slew him with a death ray. Close call, but at least he was good enough to leave a corpse (burp). Guess I shold treat other dark elfs with more respect in the future, especialy in high danger level places. Those spiders can be nasty if they hit you enough even with posion resistance. Even my new slave Billy II had problems with them, last I saw of him before I teleported away in a last desperate attempt to save my own skin he was down to 1 out of 78 HP and panicking... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Screenshot ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ########################################################################### #..........................................................................# #............""............................................................# #............".............................................................# #..........................................................................# #......%..............T..S@...................................*..*.........# #........................S.............................*...................# #......%.........................*..................................*......# #...................|.|/.........................<.........................# #..................%|.|....................""...............>..............# #...............................*..........""..............................# #..........................................................................# #...................[|.................................*..............*....# #..........................................................................# #..."".......*.............................................................# #..."......................................................................# ###########################################################.################ ### Mughelsa St:19 Le:20 Wi:12 Dx:17 To:14 Ch: 1 Ap: 9 Ma:26 Pe:14 L DV/PV: 40/4 H: -2(69) P: 0(111) Exp: 13/100257 D: 6 Sp: 81 Strained!
