No, ADOM takes precedence over everything. Including funerals, weddings, and births. You are not worthy of playing in this challenge game if you're not willing to risk the love and health of everyone you hold dear, let alone your own.
(Of course it's allowed!)

Check out my youtube channel to see my ADOM videos, including a completed playthrough of the game. I try to give instructions, so if you want to see some place you haven't been before and get some hints on how to deal with it, this might help! There's also some other games featured there that you might find interesting.

I'll be playing this for sure.

Besides crowning gift - what else do I have to worry about spoiling?
Location of vaults? Type of vaults?

Hive locations are also pre-determined, as well as one aspect of the dwarftown 4th quest equipment reward.

Also corruptions will be the same. Unless "rerolled" by some chaos removal thingie.
> 20 toughness and spellbook? This is called challenge....
Well, you could always play roleplay-esque. Which could mean any restrictions you wish to set down. Like the standard "stay cursed for the whole game" thing. Or "I am so cursed that I will not chat to any lawful being" or "I'm so cursed I have to stay Chaotic the whole game" or "Cursed is for newbie suxxors, I'll get doomed too, for good measure" or mabye something even more extreme like "use undead slaves as primary damage-dealers" or whatever.
But indeed, will be fun to see how people fare with the same character. How fast can one go and live, how slow can one go and still complete in 30 days, who gets lucky or really, royally screwed by the RNG. How much is luck, and how much is skill in this game. And doeth TH inndeed sucketh...
Some trophies to hand out to any deserving souls (virtual tropies only, sorry)
* Earliest win, game-turns (stopwatch)
* Earliest win, real time (inflatable barbie)
* Earliest death, real time ("get well soon"-card)
* Most grizly death (tombstone)
* Highest score (abacus)
* Lowest score (...nothing...)
* Most roleplayed character (halloween necromancer costume kit)
Hurm.
> No, ADOM takes precedence over everything. Including funerals
I believe that your OWN funeral comes just before ADOM. Just.

That's what you think. I put in my will that I am to be buried with an ADOM-capable laptop and several centuries' worth of batteries, and I plan to be mentally absent during my funeral while attempting to beat the game in a 2000 turn speedrun.

No, my funeral comes after ADOM. Actually, my funeral will come from playing too much ADOM.Originally Posted by Molach
I can't play with cursing, I give up.
The RNG is the source of chaos and corruption.

"Whip me!" pleads the adom player. The rng replies... "No."
