crap! what do i do if im bleeding?

[ozwalled2007]

If your character is bleeding, you have three options:

1) Hope it stops on its own.

2) Press "a" to bring up your skill screen, and if you have it, use the First Aid skill, which may or may not work, depending on how advanced the skill is and how lucky you are.

3) "Shift + u" to select a "bandage" to use.

Good luck. :D

If YOU are bleeding, apply pressure to the wounded area, and if it doesn't stop, go to the hospital. ;)

yeah. i lost health all the way to 1 p, then a rat came up behind me and killed me.

Also, are there any towns other than terinyo?

[ozwalled2007]

There's a few, I suppose. All-in-all though, the Draklor chain doesn't have too many population centers, considering how many darned monsters there are. :|

*SPOILERS*

To the SW of Terinyo is a little bandit village that has a shop and some other stuff in it. The's the High Mountain village, accessible from the small cave to the NW of Terinyo, eventually. And finally, there's Dwarftown in the Caverns of Chaos.

Also, can you tell me what are the requirements to get Treasure Hunter Talent?

[ozwalled2007]

Absolutely -- Treasure Hunter requires you to get "Alert" (ONLY available when generating your character, and NOT available later in the game, so get it when you're building a new character!) and "Miser" beforehand.

I get it every time now when I play, and it really does seem to pay off.

[mparthas]

Heh heh,

Gray Elf Wizard with Treasure Hunter Talent. Exactly the kind of a character I make all the time.

whoops its dwarf fortress

[darkallience123]

Well first of all, the Key Commands link doesn't work anymore. ):

Second, I've been wanting to get into Roguelikes and whatnot, but I need help understanding all the ASCII and Keys and whatnot. I've mainly been wanting to play this (ADOM) and Dwarf Fortress. Do you have any tips on memorizing the controls and what everything is in the game(s)?

[nahor23]

i would agree with ADOM being more atmospheric - df feels so empty becuase all the people are randomly generated and when they talk they sound like tools...

but id say df is more detailed. it has a complete biblography of every inhabitant, including the dragons and wolves, and details everything major since their birth

[PerKiller]

ADOM is more of a "standard" roguelike than dwarffortress. Anyway, ADOM has -lots- of depth too, and is easily the most detailed and athmospheric roguelike, with lots of quest, several storylines. You can't read information about a monster's kids, but you can read alot of info about them still ;D

[PerKiller]

Hehe, press a to open skill-screen and use firstaid after you take damage. Or use a healing potion/eat something that heals. Or 'u'se bandage. Most likely since you ask this though, you were too low level to be able to do any of these things, so then you're pretty much doomed with a bleeding-wound.

ah! I could never figure out dwarf fortress (II) but I liked making characters and then wandering aimlessly through the wilderness.
