Slime Salad

Gnomish mines all the way. Slightly more dangerous at your level, but it's got lots of goodies.

Chapter B1: Lizard Spit You are born in the month of the Tree. Screw that. I'm not playing a Treeborn barbarian. Fact: You get more points for immediately leaving the Drakalor Chain than I have earned on some serious character attempts. You are born in the month of the Salamander. Game effects: Fir...

You're missing Bacon and KittenMaster. Chapter P2: Revenge of Thrag You are born in the month of the Dragon. Game effects: 10% increased effects from tactical settings, -3 to initial Willpower, +2 to initial Strength, +1 to initial Toughness, costs to increase weapon skills are reduced by 10%, comba...

I won Nethack with a human ranger, so I'm going to recommend that to you, even though it's really not that great of a character.

Chapter P1: Justice, Troll-Style You are born in the month of the Tree. Game effects: It's generally hard to change alignment, +5 to initial Willpower. I think troll paladin is such a bizarre race/class that I have to do it. This edition of LPADOM will be roleplayed. You are born to be a male troll...

Intermission Let's take a look at my super-serious character. Elsa is a level 25 high elf wizard, currently on the 39th floor of the Caverns of Chaos. Elsa is the crowned champion of Ayssia, goddess of Balance. What does a late-game character look like? Elsa St:24 Le:21 Wi:2...

It might. I always seem to get the Doomed intrinsic from pools that Curse me. (Doomed is like Super-Cursed. The corresponding good status is Fate Smiles.) Chapter D2: Ham's Unremarkable Adventure Here's my final haul from the ants: - ruby - turquoise (2) - crystal of power (refills PP) - heap of 4 g...

Yes. It's up to Spoonweaver whether he wants to invite interested spectators.

The idea was that he was going to make the thread public at the end of the campaign.

Let's try a gnomish druid. I have a silly idea I want to test out. Chapter D1: Friend of Nature and Shiny Things You are born in the month of the Cup. Good caster starsign; scroll up if you want to see what it does. Gnomes get a bonus starting talent for being gnomes, IIRC. I have three gifts. The h...

Chapter W5: Journey to the High Mountain Village I neglected to mention that the black druid drops an artifact amulet when killed. It's a pretty nice item, giving +10 Spd and a few other bonuses, but it becomes cursed when you wear it, and it also curses you. Eggs knows the Remove Curse spell, so t...

Chapter W4: Repent! I mentioned in KittenMaster's run that I usually play neutral. High elves are lawful by nature, though, and I think it'd be interesting to do that in this run. Let's give it a try. Having accomplished what I came for, I get out of the ID. On the way, I pick up Knock (pretty usef...

Press F4 to open the tag menu, + and - to scroll through, and I think Ctrl+ and Ctrl- to set or unset the tags.

One quest asks you to get 20 more of your first kill; another requires you to go to the floor in the ID equal to the number of first kill monsters you've killed. It's nice to keep track of it, but by no means necessary to win. Chapter W3: I Get Stuff - spellbooks of Darkness (2) - spellbooks of Ligh...

Chapter W2: I Am So Smart, S-M-R-T Same strategy as before. I hit up the small cave, kill a couple of goblins there, then hop over to the ID. A few bolt spells into a tension room quickly gets me to level 6. (This is the best part about being a wizard.) I am still upset about my pitiful Learning sc...

There are several joke items. Potion of uselessness isn't one of them. Some items are actively harmful, the scroll of amnesia being a prime example. This is actually fairly common in the genre, the idea being to make it slightly more risky to blind-use an un-ID'd item. ADOM is pretty tame in this re...
