ToME: the Tales of Maj'Eyal

something weird happened to me just recently. my character was at temple creation 3 and was resting right near his room before chatting and fighting with slasul (i wanted 'treacherous bastard' achievement) when i got a bunch of 'frozen' 'frozen' 'frozen' messages from that closed room and suddenly i got the achievement for killing slasul ('destroyer of the creation') when i didn't even see him. when i opened the room it was empty but full of loot from killed nagas. but who killed them?

Ninjas! No wait...

I don't remember everything I've seen spawn in that room, but not all creatures hostile to you are friendly to each other. There also seems to be an odd bug with telepathy that lets creatures who you see have an idea where you are.

Even if they aren't hostile to start, Slasul may have had some idea where you were and cast an AOE in that direction. I don't know if you can turn your own alliances against yourself, but he may have pissed off some neutral creatures that then turned hostile against him.

yes, i thought that too, it's strange though that nobody survived

poor slasul killed by his own naga myrmidons and tidehunters...

sfw but has some strong language

Yeah, that is weird. Maybe a bunch of DOT's went around.

Pretty darn funny though. I love it when emergent behavior comes up with an entertaining story.

At least Slasul, maybe other nagas too don't remeber, has ice storm which lingers even after the caster is dead. So he died but took his killers with him.

This happens from time to time. I've had Vaults full of Giants somehow aggro themselves much to the same results. And on a summoning adventurer I did once, my golem kept aggro'ing my shadows, so it's possible to aggro friendlies.

I had the AM pride boss getting killed by Naga invasion portal before I even explored the level that far.
