Set 9 Week 5 : Erica the Fiery-Tempered

A wild-tempered adventuress. She's quite prideful for an octopode, and brandishes their venomous capacity and camouflage talents with cruel force.

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

Only train Short Blades, Long Blades, and Fighting for weapon skills.

2. Armour

Don't wear hats.

3. Magic

Train Hexes to skill level 14 by XL27.

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. Hexonxonx

Put The Royal Jelly to sleep with Ensorcelled Hibernation. Because of the spell's low power cap, this will require reading a scroll of vulnerability, and is much more likely to succeed if you also malmutate TRJ with Irradiate or Yara's Violent Unravelling.

2. The Destroyer

Exit a ziggurat from Zig:27.

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 D, 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.
