> l orc
Although this creature has a humanoid woman's body, her face is beastly.
Her eyes are dark and beady, set deep in her skull just above a long,
piggish snout. She's got pinkish-gray skin and sparse, coarse hair. While
her body is fat and dumpy, her movements declare a beastly strength that
defies her flaccid appearance.
Her chest is bleeding.
Her left arm is bleeding.
Her right arm is severed.
Overall, a dumpy female orc has quite a few wounds.

A dumpy female orc is using:
<worn around neck> a flowing griffon-skin cloak (brand new)
<worn as skin> flesh hide (good)
<worn on head> a griffon skull (brand new)
<worn on legs> a skirt of bone and beads (brand new)

For the imperceptive, i cleaved the orc's arm off and no severed arm was created.

there wasnt an arm lying on the ground either.

This has been happening for a long time. Even when I lose one of my own limbs they're rarely on the ground. I think it's SK's way of sticking it to shaman.

Or maybe the arm explodes in excitement at being a cleave victim of a hellion. After all, hellions are awesome.

I'd agree with Rusin's statement.
I think of cleave like taking a chainsaw to something.
A whole lotta pain; sometimes it's clean, sometimes there's a mess.

Silly excuses... It's a bug.
