Set 14 Week 1 : Robin of the Strong Arm

A mountain hobgoblin, recently come in search of the legendary Orb. Not foolhardy or reckless enough to delve into the depths of the Dungeon alone, Robin has built a small army of minions. Potential competitors will quickly find a stream of screaming goblins flying toward them!

The Species, Background, and God choices are all mandatory. You must be worshipping one of the gods listed above before entering Lair, Orcish Mines, the Vaults or Depths, unless this isn't possible in which case you must worship them as soon as you can. Don't use faded altars (except in challenges where you can choose any god), and don't do anything to lose your religion unless otherwise specified.

NOTE: Except for Beogh, Ignis, Jiyva and Lugonu, an altar for the other gods will ALWAYS show up by D:10.

Cosplay conduct points

1. Weapons

Don't choose an axe as your starting weapon; you can still switch to using axes once the game has started.

2. Armour

Only wear armour with an ER of 5 or lower. (Acid dragon scales are allowed, even though they don't qualify as "light armour.")

3. Throwing

Train Throwing to 21.

Conducts are worth +5 points each, to a maximum of half your score from milestones, rounded down. (So if you achieve 4 milestones (20 points) you can earn up to 10 points from conduct bonuses.) Small mistakes in following conducts will usually be forgiven.

Bonus challenges

1. Band of Brothers

Win the game taking the first 3 warrior apostles available, and only using warrior apostles for the remainder of the game. You can replace apostles with new warriors, and you may still have early priest/wizard apostles until 3 warriors are available.

2. Hemoglobin

Don't train any weapon skill except for Fighting and Throwing past base skill level 6 (This includes Unarmed Combat) and reach skill level 27 in Fighting.

Bonuses from cross-training don't count to your base skill level, and so are fine, but be aware that setting skill targets takes cross-training into account. (In other words, setting the right skill target might be hard.)

Bonus challenges are worth one star each, similar to banners in Crawl tournaments. Small mistakes will usually be forgiven.

Milestones

  • Reach XL3.
  • Enter Lair, Orc, or Depths.
  • Reach the bottom of Dungeon, Lair, or Orc.
  • Collect your first rune.
  • Find the entrance to Zot. (Just using magic mapping doesn't count.)
  • Collect your third rune.
  • Win the game.

The main way to score points. +5 points each, and can be done in any order.
