Pesco:
Can we start this yet? If we're doing a transmuter, I want to get my turns in early.

Zengar Zombolt:
/in now for realz then.
CHO-NUE is going to have a fun fun ride.

Totaku:
Ok people!

I went and did some more work. I got some things updated some more. Basiclly replaced roaches, centaurs, trap door spiders, a hungry ghost and gnoll and a few more uniques with various Touhous.

So here you go, at least now I feel like I got most of the early creatures done, now I'll prepare for some critter edits in the Lair and so forth.

Just make sure to update and move the save file in there. Everything else should work just fine.

Enjoy, and happy crawling everyone!

Pesco:
Okay, getting things started!

Nue the Demonspawn Transmuter.

First thing I notice is that a transmuter isn't one of the DS' favoured classes. No biggie, we can still do well because a good set of mutations will take care of the tough guys for us.

We start off with the normal gear of a transmuter, free identified bad potions and some sticks to turn into snakes. Now I'm quite rusty and forgot to 1) Learn distillation and 2) find a weapon.

Some early game fodder came into view and I beat them to death with my demon fists. Some points towards unarmed combat is fine since it will help when we are fighting in spider form or blade hands.

Find a ring? PUT IT ON! No idea what it does, but it isn't cursed and doesn't raise our stats. It couldn't be anything bad.

Do the whole explore everywhere, kill everything routine. Picked up an uncursed but enchanted hammer, another ring that can't be worn ID'd and levelled up! Learned evaporate as it's going to be our main killing spell for the early game.

Our first kill with the spell. Standard procedure is evaporate a potion, let the enemy choke on it a bit, move in with the hammer for the kill if they haven't died from headwalling/poison yet. If there's a corpse, always distill it. The most common potions will be water, confusion and poison. Use water for animals, confusion for humanoids kobolds and goblins and poison for orcs and higher. That's about all our variety for now. I did get lucky to score us some degen potions. Save it for the nasty stuff that can kill you in one go like ogres, centaurs or those guys with stacks of spears and always appear in packs.

A whole lot more of the general explore and kill. Got us our first mutation, 1 free level of cold resist. Nothing to complain about at this stage of the game.

Ended off my run by an altar to the god of slow, Sakuya for this run. Next player can decide if we will join her or not. A DS has fairly average speed so our piety isn't going to go up at an amazing rate. We are a caster, so Sif Muna could be an okay choice, but also not really spectacular. Lugona is always a good pick for DS, but finding an altar to her is kinda tough.

Zengar Zombolt:
Ok, time to break some skulls with Nue.
Like Pesco said, we're close to an Altar of Sakuya (Cheibriados), god of slow stuff. Since it's sort of new (At least for the people on the last relay), I'll give a brief explanation:
This god likes being slow, killing faster things and eating while full (WHAT). It also dislikes casting Haste and items that make you fast. So Haste potions and wands are a no-go.
Being under this god's supervision, our metabolism slows down, and the effects of poison and sickness are dumbed down.
We can also enchant armors with the Ponderousness brand, which makes us slower (This is good for this god) and earns us Sakuya's favor.
Finally, we will be able to slow enemies, magically damage faster enemies and to make time pass while making us intouchable.
All in all, a good deity, so we're taking her. Besides, we inmediately enchant our current robe.

...Welp. Maybe should have waited to enchant this first. Oh well, moving on.
Next floor. A momikkuri, some orcs and Yukkureimus, nothing too hard.

...Oh shit. Must find fast!

There you are, you motherfucker. DIE ALREADY
Well, throwing a confusion potion ain't a good idea. Y'know, since these fuckers are mindless and all.
So I'll thro-
THERE'S TWO?
FFFFUUUUU

Shit fucking damn Jellies. Ah well, /in again and stuff. Next time I hope no jellies and all. >>;;
