Affliction record?

[Saber Cherry]

My worst was a Blue Dragon pretender. He started the battle with 240 HP in dragon form, then changed to Frost Father form on turn 1 and attacked. Ooops, I think I forgot to change his scripting...

So in Frost Father form, he retained 240 HP but his new max HP was 10, and protection was zero. Thus, virtually every every hit gave him a wound, and he started out with a lost eye anyway. Needless to say, he died in battle with every affliction. That's when it becomes no longer worthwhile to resurrect him...

and not technically an affliction, but also, the horror mark.

Oh, I think I have you beat.

The mean Abyssian Warlord, mean feller, Hall of Fame #1 with over 3000 kills to his name.

And he was CURSED as well as horror marked! 13 afflictions! Admittedly, some of those afflictions are afflictions I intentionally afflicted him with, like that chest wound there, as this was back in the old crystal heart days.

And the best part? Despite the immense pain he obviously had to be in, he singlehanded "slew" the final enemy pretender to claim the victory prize. He valiantly stumbled across the battlefield as the enemy pretender, himself feebleminded hacked and chopped through my troops as spells exploded from mages of both sides.

Finally, all that was left on the field was the enemy pretender, a pretty sorry wreck himself, and my even sorrier wreck of a warlord....they clashed in the center. Actually, it kept saying my troops were routing, but the warlord was paralyzed and couldn't move. So finally, the enemy pretender collapsed from heat exhaustion and eventually died trying to beat my useless, crippled, paralyzed warlord to death.

Victory was mine.

Tough guy, wasn't he! That's just as insane as this game is good! Why MY commanders never end up like that?

Really, that must have been a unique fight... Perfect.

Well, he's alive mostly because the crystal heart used to never dissappear after use, so the unit became unkillable.

Resurrection removes some or several afflictions.

This certainly isn't a record, but let's give the poor chap a nod - he's only a lowly Longdead Horseman:

Lost one eye
Lost the other eye as well
Mute
Feeble Minded
Lost the head

Can you Gift of Reason an Undead? I might want to take this guy to the Veterans' Hall...

[PvK]

"Lost the head" ... even if he finds it, it's not going to be much good for him. That may be the record for undead horsemen - I think they only have 7 HP and don't heal.

I expect you could GoR it, but I haven't tried.

BTW, my Popocatepetl the Mictan Priest is no longer a contender, as I finally managed to heal him completely using Gift of Health. I thought some of the more compassionate of you would be pleased to hear that. He still has the horror mark, though, but these days he still hangs out in the home castle, with a bodyguard.
