one of the curious things about being one of the two main content devs in the past year of an open source project is having to go clean up the half-done efforts of other devs' given projects. decoupling transformation magic from spellcasting into various talismans did make it so many more character builds can access transformations than prior, but by tossing out the prior connections to other schools of magic it also left a relatively plain set of transformations rather isolated and singular in its progression. having every troll and octopus end up aiming to become storms and statues is substantially less varied than earthshapers and weather witches of all sorts possibly dabble into the corresponding [earth | air] + transmutations form.

after a lot of brainstorming with my partner about the needs of variety and with the makeshift art compositing capacity I've picked up, actually coming up with enough forms to provide reasonable spread-out options then clashes strangely with the need to match the prior species-

-resulting in the absurdity of depicting a spine-coated cephalopod, a two-headed snake with cat ears, or vampire and werewolf armadillo-taurs. it does mean, also, in comparison to That Other Roguelike's permitting immense bodyhacking for a steadfastly genderless player-perspective, a character can actually divest experience towards transitioning into a traditionally-feminine mythological feline with a chest and an armoured skirt. who knows how popular that'll be compared to becoming a walking hive, though?

(will still need to get volunteer artists to cover a few remaining things- no compositing really will get a werewolf cat- but it's not too bad for preliminary art compared to other programmer-art.)

dungeon crawl is so real for this quote

[peachesanmemes]

I am OBSESSED with the most niche character on planet Earth. Him 👇

Pargi the meek is an unusually thin and nervous troll from the game Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. DCSS is a free open source rougelike game that has been constantly updating since 1997. It's incredible and you should play it.

Anyway, back to Pargi. He is usually found in the sewers and is super weak and apparently lives in the sewers or the higher dungeon floors as a result of being bullied by other trolls.

Now, I would already just let Pargi ruin my run because of how endeared I am to him, but it gets better.

Very VERY rarely, Pargi will show up as Pargit the mighty, an unusually strong troll (I have never seen this.) And this is the in-game flavor text when you inspect Pargit. 👇

Ndkskfbdjjcbdksgs? The underdog lore??? The Mr Baseball meme????? *sobbing*

So basically Pargit will instantly fuck you up with his insanely strong claws, large rocks that he throws, and his astonishing +27 HP per turn regeneration.

I am sobbing. I love Pargi/Parghit so much. I will be making fan art of Pargi even though not a single soul on Earth loves this stupid, weak, bullied little sewer troll like I do.

I'm a grown ass adult, and something about this little troll has really done it to me. ;; Every dungeon run I do, I simply want to find Pargi. Winning is no longer the goal.

another dcss run. ive done like thirty merfolk shapeshifter runs, all ended horribly. like my first octopode shapeshifter that managed to get past d5, im currently in pandemonium with three runes and two gems. AC49, EV55. jesus fucking christ ive never even seen evasion that high? im wearing like four rings of +dex or +ev, and have granite form. its kind of frightening. the orcs who hang out with me are probably very impressed, the few moments they arent dead.
