If any of y'all play or played NetHack, which seems plausibly likely, there is a new release!!
(The advantage of FL over NetHack is that FL doesn't give me RSI, but wow, the nostalgia right now. I should see if rgrn still exists in any meaningful way . . . )

Social Actions: send them to Kade Carrion (she/her; no Tournament of Lilies, please). an_ocelot has gone NORTH and cannot benefit from social actions!
Possibly-Useful Things: Spreadsheets and hints and link collections, oh my.

Didn't expect to see Nethack here. Well a rogue-like's narrative style has some similarities with FL's.
Probably my favorite spell there is Stone to Flesh. Meatballs on demand are awesome.

Hey, it's the off-topic forum!
It depended on the character, but I used to like charm monster and a magic whistle.
Kittenpox, it has a steep learning curve and little narrative, so it's very unlike FL, but the cleverness and scope of it is vast and admirable.

Yes, probably I should've mentioned this in the SS forum instead, but I don't play it so I don't go there.

Ah man, good times. I never even made it to Gehennom, honestly, but I was a lot less cognitively developed the last time I tried. Perhaps I should begin making serious attempts to ascend.

Apropos, if you like the idea of mixing the two, you should probably check out Chris Gardiner's on-hiatus side project, Below.

I was just surprised. It's just been years since I wielded a Vorpal Sword.
Looks like you like to do Shadowy things in the dungeon with an accomplice too!
