[The flg is not in perfect shape , but I just don't have the energy to clean it
up at the moment, maybe later on... J.E.M]
I guess I should post this, as I've been meaning to for the last few weeks. Started up a
Dwarven Farmer born in the month of the sword with the goal of reaching
grandmastery in Polearms. Never found anything better than a 1d8+5 Orcish spear
which got destroyed in a jelly vault. I had to do the ToEF without any gear protection
and a normal mithril spear, as I got Rolf's Saviour from the dwarven Elder. Why does he
give you a shield if you already have protector?
I was in a real hurry, as I had spent a lot of time on the surface and was being
corrupted _very_ quickly even with the farmer's 30% resistance. This probably
attributed to my demise greatly, as I should have returned to dwarftown, and arranged
my equipment properly. I had a lot of stuff from the Casion Gift Shop as I rob it every
game. I use a cursed wand of door creation to block off the downstairs, then go and hit
the shopkeeper with preferably an acid wand. Then I teleport into the place with the
big guard and dispatch him. Works quite nicely, but you _need_ teleport control for it to
work. I'm pretty sure that I had around 4 greater vaults this game.
Was doing splendidly, impaling my way through the monsters, when I found a greater
undead vault. It didn't kill me, but the Emperor liches messed Todd up so much that he
never really recovered. Got killed by a greater moloch in three rounds five seconds after
I got the stiff muscles corruption. A fun game though, and I will definetly be playing
Farmers again.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Effects of Corruption ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
You exhale sulphur (Ch: -4). Your close attunement to corrupted astral space allows teleportation. You have
grown a bulging cranium (Le: +6, Wi: +4, Ap: -6, PV: -4, To: -3).
You have grown thorns (3d3 melee damage, Dx: -2, Ap: -3). Your antennae explore the details of your
environment (Ap: -4). You rage (DV: -9, +6 melee damage)!
You have become very light (1/10 weight, St: -6, Dx: +4, To: -6, Ap: -6, +20
speed).
Your corrupted tissue seems to heal much faster.
You have grown a total of 12 eyes (Ap: -6, Pe: +6). Your skin is covered by tough scales (PV: +8, Dx: -6, Ap:
-4). Your muscles have stiffened slowing you down (base action cost: 1500 energy
points; PV: +4, St: +2).
This last one killed me. I was being corrupted very fast by this point.
