While usually creatures in Qud die only by taking sufficient damage, some methods of death bypass damage altogether and kill regardless of how much HP one has.
Methods of Instant Death
Some instant death methods grant an achievement when the player dies this way. These are noted in the “Achievement” column when present.
Some methods kill the player even if they are currently dominating another creature and that creature is the one affected. These have a “Yes” in the “Kills dominator?” column.
A lack of message in the “Message” column indicates that instead of the usual “You died. [Message]” dialog, that method gives the fallback “You die! (good job)” dialog, which happens when no death message is specified in the code that causes the death.
Method | Achievement | Kills dominator? | Message |
---|---|---|---|
Losing your last remaining head to decapitation[1] | Hole Like a Head | No | You were decapitated by [someone]. |
Ending a phased effect while both in and surrounded by solid objects[2] | The Laws of Physics Are Mere Suggestions, Vol. 1 | No | You violated the Pauli exclusion principle. |
Getting hit by the gaze of a lithofex[3] | Aetalag | No | You were turned to stone by the gaze of a lithofex. |
Standing in the path of a burrowed salt kraken or a star kraken[4] | *gulp* | No | You were consumed whole by a [salt kraken/star kraken]. |
Drinking or cooking with neutron flux (specifically drinking or cooking with it; other actions with flux merely do large amounts of damage)[5] | Starry Demise | No | You were crushed under the weight of a thousand suns. |
Being turned into a gem by a gemming attack[6] | Jeweled Dusk | No | You were transmuted into [a gem]. |
Being any temporary forcefield (such as from a stasis grenade, Force Bubble, or Force Wall) who was animated with Spray-a-Brain and running out the duration of the effect that spawned you (or, in the case of Grit Gate's entrance barrier, walking away so that you are disconnected from the originating force projector) | I- | Yes | |
Reaching higher than 10,000°, causing instant vaporization[7] | No | You were vaporized. | |
Dropping below 1 Willpower while wielding the amaranthine prism[8] | No | You had a dream, which was not all a dream. The bright sun was extinguish'd, and the stars did wander darkling in the eternal space. | |
Being a magmatic soupy sludge and having one's temperature go below flaming | No | You cooled into a block of shale. | |
Being affected by normality when one's existence is supported by a reality-distorting effect (for example, being a Temporal Fugue clone or animated forcefield) | Yes | Your mind winked out of existence. | |
Being a wall and getting slammed (including by yourself)[9] | Yes | ||
Being a giant centipede nest and collapsing due to spawning the maximum number of giant centipedes | Yes | ||
Running out the duration of Temporal Fugue when one is a fugue clone[10][11] | Yes | ||
Having one's original body destroyed when one is dominating another creature (caused by, e.g., any effect on this page being applied to the dominator's body while they're away)[12] | N/A | Your original body was lost. | |
Having the creature one is dominating destroyed while still occupying it (This applies to any other entry on this table that has a “Yes” in the “Kills dominator?” column) | N/A | Your mind winks out of existence. |
A player can obtain the body of any creature via the use of a ganglionic teleprojector for mechanical bodies, Domination for bodies without a mental shield, or Metamorphosis for any body.
Not Normally Possible for the Player
The following methods of death require wishes for a player to experience them because there is no known way for the things involved to be or become creatures.
Method | Kills dominator? | Message |
---|---|---|
Having one's flywheel disabled, such as by becoming broken from examining oneself, when one is a norm core mk I, norm core mk II, or norm core mk III[13] | No | Your flywheel failed catastrophically. |
Being gas and dissipating or merging with another cloud of gas[14] | No | You dissipated. |
Being shot with a nullray pistol when one is normality gas[15] | No | You were cancelled from existence. |
