Should this page be spoilered? Really where do we draw the lines on spoilers in DF2010? --StrongAxe 18:01, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

This guy showed up on the highest level of the underground, along with a giant cave spider and troglodytes. The people searching for this probably have already seen one. I don't think it's too spoilery. -- 208.36.201.71 00:59, 3 April 2010 (UTC)

To be honest, it isn't showing in the Arena, at least. And it looks to be bugged - it never moved or attack when I found one.

When I found one it just scared my dwarves and got trampled to death. -- Xtank5 02:46, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
I encountered one and it just ran up to one of my doors and froze there. I eventually recruited a miner and they killed it without injury. --[o_O]WTFace

Does it start out hostile? -- Xtank5 02:46, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

The fact that it's used by goblin siegers precludes it from being a spoiler to begin with. No?
I managed to capture and tame one of these (after changing [PET_EXOTIC],though) and it seems to work just fine. It has already killed a kobold thief and a berserk elf trader, and the dwarves are adorably calling it "Spiterippers" --Aavemursu 8.11.2010

butchering

I'm not sure if there is any variation to be seen in results from butchering, but I got a slightly different number of products when butchering a VCC that died from one lucky hit on the noggin from a stone trap:

  • 4 fat
  • 1 heart
  • 8 intestines
  • 2 brain
  • 1 skin
  • 45 meat
  • 1 tooth

The butcher had only novice skill and was rusty on top of that, so that might be the cause. (edit: this was in 0.31.16)--Scrotch 00:11, 13 November 2010 (UTC)
