Well, about the eating limbs thing...thats what caused it..however, I am not really a new player, just took a long break...lots of things have changed. I used to eat limbs all the time..Legs and all....I knew guts used to poison and stuff, but not legs and arms, etc... This was a spider leg from the Bakemono Caves...was more than a little shocked. I checked the who list, I did not see any priests that were directly noticeable. the only thing that doomed was the lack of PE...I drained so much when training that when I got poisoned, I couldn't recall and then the stupid aggro NPCs that drained the rest...(being a swashy with four attacks), until I couldn't even flee....*shrugs* I know I could have avoided it...but it just seems like a pathetic way to die...to run out of physical energy so fast that you can't even flee... :(

I remember running around as a bard on my way back to my corpse - in the room which drained the remainder of my PE, an agro NPC spawned. Just a bakemono. No PE for chords/kick/whatever - it took it half an hour or somesuch to finally kill me.

Well, firstly I understand that it's lame. I personally have fallen "victim" to this scenario many-a-time. On that same note, however, if I get shot or stabbed or poisoned with any potentially fatal substance IRL I'm probably not gonna be making it to the hospital on foot without any problems. I think everyone here wants a fantasy type game with mechanics based in reality, and the frustrations and maybe panic you feel when struggling to get to the healer are entirely appropriate and probably what whoever designed poison was looking to instill.

I think there should be a command in game that allows oneself to commit suicide, some would find it great for RP and it would alleviate some of the aggravations others are having with these types of low-level problems. (Would need to be a command that you couldn't order a charmed PC to perform.)

You can commit suicide, via a specific dagger.

Bards should get kick, and it should be twice as powerful as any other class's kick. This is because, as the bard is a tumbler, it would be a mule-style kick right in the crotch.

Incidentally, centaurs should get this kind of kick as well.
