This was the second ascension I've ever done. The first was named
Rachel-Val-Hum-Fem-Neu. I like neutrals.
The only notable thing about this is the sheer number of bones levels
I hit. I guess this is a sign that I'm overusing hearse, and should
switch to Mode = replace instead of Mode = keep.
I ended up with an enormous number of artifacts, but I don't know them
all because I left them in the stash. Still, I remember:
sac gifts: Magicbane, Demonbane, Giantslayer, Vorpal Blade
bones: Excalibur, Mjollinir, Grimtooth, Orb of Fate
Quest: Eye of Aethiopica
wish: PYEC
I'm pretty sure there were at least two more, from bones. But nothing
really fun like the Brands.
Except for a brief time using Vorpal to get basic skill in long sword,
and an even briefer time playing with Excalibur, I stuck to my +6
Magicbane most of the time. Had a large stack of elven daggers but as
usual forgot to use them most of the time.
I wished for the PYEC mostly out of curiosity; I used it to charge a
few
wands but could easily have done without it by writing ?oCharging.
I had an embarrassing excess of wishes: one WoW from a shop,
one from the Castle, and two more from bones. Plus a magic lamp I
never
used, plus one fountain, plus one smoky potion.
Yeah, I didn't do anything to make this hard on myself.
One bones of note was somebody named "8" who had been turned into a
green slime in the Valley; another was somebody called Brad the Mighty
who was killed inside a vault. (I tinned his corpse and took it with
me to ascension. I also tinned "8"s green slime corpse but forgot it.
Was that disrespectful?) I had to charm the vault guard on that one;
interestingly though he just kept wandering around the level, never
disappeared. Chatting with him after charming him, he just kept saying
"Please follow me."
I also found what should probably be called a bug: if the guard is
leading you out of the vault, and he comes across some buried gold,
the message is "the guard calms down and picks up the gold." Even if
you never got him angry to begin with.
Got SDSM an interesting way: polymorphed a mind flayer so I wouldn't
have to fight it; it turned into a silver dragon that dropped scales.
Later, of course, I found another SDSM and a GDSM on bones levels. Got
speed boots by a wish, found the rest of the stuff.
Spellbooks of identify, charm monster, remove curse, and magic mapping
make the game almost TOO easy. Found them all, no polypile or writing.
I did polypile for some magic markers, later, trying to get my armor
to the top.
The only Rider I saw was Death, and he never hit me; teleported him
three times and he was gone. Went left and it was the right altar.
I made a big mistake at one point. reverse genocided wraiths, but I
wasn't wearing all my armor and had AC -8. I lost five levels. Got
them back again with 2 more reverse genocides, thankfully.
Gonna take a break for a while now. After that, well, I've done the
"easy" Val and Wiz; what should I try next?
