(Updated the Leap, Frog achievement to be accurate to the expanded requirements that were added in 204.83. Also cut the reference to the frog faction, since svardym are filed under beasts. Added mention of the utility of completing Landing Pads to Peekaboo. Fixed some capitalization issues.)

In ''Caves of Qud'', there are a total of 52 achievements awarded for completing certain tasks. Of these 52, 20 are hidden, meaning that neither the requirements for completion nor the achievement's icon are displayed until after the player has completed them. These hidden achievements are displayed further down, in a separate section from the non-hidden achievements.
{{Spoiler}}


Note that many achievements, such as [[Achievements#On The Rocks|On The Rocks]], will kill the player. In these cases, using [[Precognition]] or, if you are [[True Kin]], a {{Favilink|sphynx salt injector}} before dying will still award the achievement.
In ''Caves of Qud'', there are a total of 100 Steam achievements awarded for completing certain tasks. Of these 100, 35 are hidden, meaning that neither the requirements for completion nor the achievement's icon are displayed until after the player has completed them. These hidden achievements are displayed further down, in a separate section from the non-hidden achievements.
 
'''Note:''' Many achievements, such as [[Achievements#On the Rocks|On the Rocks]], will kill the player (or have other highly undesirable effects). In these cases, using {{favilink|Precognition}} or, if you are [[True Kin]], a {{Favilink|sphynx salt injector}} before dying will still award the achievement. It is also possible to use {{favilink|Domination}} to obtain some (but not all) of these achievements by killing the player-controlled creature instead of the player character.


These are currently only available for players playing on Steam clients.

This can generally be achieved most easily by becoming loved by the player's starting village, as you can water-ritual with the Mayor, the town's Warden, and the town's Questgiver.

From there, you must either kill creatures disliked by the village, perform a Water Ritual with creatures liked by the village, or use {{favilink|Schrodinger page from the Annals of Qud|&ySchrodinger pages from the &KAnnals of Qud}} to increase your reputation further.

Another easy-to-please faction is [[Mechanimists]], just toss enough artifacts in the {{Favilink|sacred well}} at the {{favilink|Six Day Stilt}}. For example 8-9 {{favilink|laser rifle|plural}} which are relatively easy to gather/tinker, but give a respectable +75 reputation per offering.

Gossip can be learned through a variety of methods: viewing {{favilink|sultan shrine|plural}}, asking for secrets during [[water ritual]]s, rifling through trash with [[Trash Divining]], looking at [[painted]] or [[engraved]] items, cooking with {{favilink|psychal gland paste}} and exploring new areas while infected by {{favilink|mumble mouth}}.

Spoiler Spoiler Warning: This article contains information normally only found in the course of advancing the main quest line.
Spoiler Warning: This article contains information normally only found in the course of advancing the main quest line.

In Caves of Qud, there are a total of 100 Steam achievements awarded for completing certain tasks. Of these 100, 35 are hidden, meaning that neither the requirements for completion nor the achievement's icon are displayed until after the player has completed them. These hidden achievements are displayed further down, in a separate section from the non-hidden achievements.

Note: Many achievements, such as On the Rocks, will kill the player (or have other highly undesirable effects). In these cases, using Precognition or, if you are True Kin, a sphynx salt injector before dying will still award the achievement. It is also possible to use Domination to obtain some (but not all) of these achievements by killing the player-controlled creature instead of the player character.

These are currently only available for players playing on Steam clients.

Non-Hidden Achievements

A Bond Knit with Trust

A Bond Knit with Trust.png Become loved by a faction.
Have a reputation of +600 or more with one of the in-game Factions.

This can generally be achieved most easily by becoming loved by the player's starting village, as you can water-ritual with the Mayor, the town's Warden, and the town's Questgiver.

From there, you must either kill creatures disliked by the village, perform a Water Ritual with creatures liked by the village, or use Schrodinger pages from the Annals of Qud to increase your reputation further.

Another easy-to-please faction is Mechanimists, just toss enough artifacts in the sacred well at the Six Day Stilt. For example 8-9 laser rifles which are relatively easy to gather/tinker, but give a respectable +75 reputation per offering.

Absolute Unit

Absolute Unit.png Successfully cook a meal with neutron flux as an ingredient.
Cooking with neutron flux (typically stored within a phial) has a 90% chance to succeed. However, be aware that failure will cause a gravitational collapse (instant death).

Become as Gods

Become as Gods.png Bestow life to 20 inanimate objects.
Inanimate objects can be animated through the application of Spray-a-Brain or a nano-neuro animator.

Belong, Friends

Belong, Friends.png Help the slynth find a new home.
Complete the main objective of the Landing Pads quest, given by Thah, by convincing at least three villages to accept the slynth.

Biographer

Biographer.png Learn the complete history of a single sultan.
Learn every piece of historical gossip about the life of a single Sultan.

Gossip can be learned through a variety of methods: viewing shrines, asking for secrets during water rituals, rifling through trash with Trash Divining, looking at painted or engraved items, cooking with psychal gland paste and exploring new areas while infected by mumble mouth.

Byevalve

Byevalve.png Enter 100 giant clams.
Giant clams are commonly found in Lake Hinnom and the Palladium Reef.

Close the Loop

Close the Loop.png Recover Kindrish.
Find and acquire Kindrish, the lost bracelet of the hindren of Bey Lah. Its location can be learned from Trolls by asking them for secrets during a water ritual.

The location will always be the center zone of a random tier 4-6 parasang, between 0-9 strata deep. It will be generated either within a normal colored chest, a creature's inventory, or on the ground.

Cubic and Wisest Human

Cubic and Wisest Human.png Activate a time cube.
Come into possession of a timecube, and then activate it. A time cube is one of the few artifacts which can earn the achievement Donation Level: Kasaphescence when cast down into the sacred well.

Thus, if you have it, it is a good idea to use Precognition (or a sphynx salt injector, if you are True Kin) before activating your timecube, so that you can earn the achievement and still have a timecube to cast into the sacred well.

Dark Tidings

Dark Tidings.png Foresee your own death.
Die while using the Precognition mutation or, if you are a True Kin, die while under the effects of a sphynx salt injector.

Dawnglider

Auroral.png Become auroral.
Catch fire while you are coated in plasma.

Dayenu

Dayenu.png Give the repulsive device to all four children of the Tomb.
Once inside the Tomb of the Eaters, kill or trade with k-Goninon for the repulsive device. The device can then be given to one of the four children: Nacham, Va'am, Dagasha, and Kah. This is the final objective of the Fraying Favorites quest.

This achievement will typically require multiple playthroughs, as only one repulsive device can be found and it cannot be duplicated with metamorphic polygel. However, an unscrupulous player could kill or dominate the children to reclaim the device.

Donation Level: Kasaphescence

Donation Level Kasaphescence.png Make an offering at the Sacred Well of an artifact worth at least 200 reputation.
Main article: Sacred well

Throw an artifact worth 200 reputation or more into the sacred well.

timecubes, Hand-E-Nukes or phase cannons are the only artifacts valuable enough to give 200 reputation when cast into the well.

If you have it, it is a good idea to use Precognition (or a sphynx salt injector, if you are True Kin) before offering to the well so that you can gain the achievement and still keep your artifact.

Eat an Entire Bear

Eat an Entire Bear.png Kill a bear and eat it. Just eat an entire bear.
Kill a bear and eat its corpse raw by picking up the bear corpse, waiting until you are famished or hungrier, and choosing to eat it.

Players with the Carnivorous (D) mutation need not wait until they are famished.

Feast Upon the Goat Hearts! *cheers*

Mamon.png Perform the water ritual with Mamon Souldrinker.
Travel to Kyakukya and begin the Raising Indrix quest to receive directions to Mamon Souldrinker's location.

To perform the water ritual with Mamon, he must be made neutral or friendly by raising the player's Children of Mamon reputation (from the default of -600 to at least -249) or by recruiting him as a follower (with Beguiling or Proselytize).

Friend to Fungi

Friend to Fungi.png Host 3 different fungal infections at once.
Become the host of 3 different types of fungal infection.

This can be easily achieved by walking near three differently colored broodpuffs. Make sure that one fungal infection has grown before walking near the next broodpuff, as itchy skin does not stack and walking into more spores will not change the infection type.

Gemini

Gemini.png Wield Caslainard and Polluxus.
Wield Caslainard & Polluxus, Crowsong's two electrified longswords.

Killing Crowsong is, for obvious reasons, an expedient. They are affiliated with the Village of Kyakukya, so you need to worry about others joining in the fight. However, dominating them and forcing them to drop their swords also works.

Go on. Do it.

Go on. Do it..png Wield the amaranthine prism.
Kill Mamon Souldrinker and equip the amaranthine prism that he drops.

Note that once you equip the amaranthine prism there is no way to remove it, and it will eventually kill your character.

Goat Simulator

Goat Simulator.png Project your mind into a goat's body.
Dominate a goat.

I-

I-.png Wink out of existence.
Die by ceasing to exist in one of several ways; see instant death.

In Contemplation of Eons

In Contemplation of Eons.png Perform the water ritual with Oboroqoru, Ape God.
Find Oboroqoru, Ape God and then perform the water ritual with them.

The lair of Oboroqoru is a hidden lair in the jungles around Kyakukya. Apes will also trade you the location if you have reputation with them.

Jawsnapper

Jawsnapper.png Kill 100 snapjaws.
There's so many of the little buggers. Play long enough and you'll get it.

Knight Conical

Knight Conical.png Recover Stopsvalinn.
The location of Stopsvalinn can be easily gained from trading secrets from the Barathrumites or Trolls.

Leap, Frog.

Leap, Frog.png Convince a frog to teach you how to jump.
Perform the water ritual with a frog or svardym and have them teach you Jump.

Live and Ink

Live and Ink.png Tattoo yourself.
Main article: Tattoo gun

Lottery Winner

Lottery Winner.png Gain a mutation from a gamma moth's mutating gaze.
Main article: Gamma moth

Love at First Sign

Love at First Sign.png Fall in love with a sign.
Inject yourself with a love injector and look at a sign.

Mouse control is required for this achievement, as looking through keyboard commands means the cursor will always start to centered on yourself, making you fall in love with yourself before you have a chance to look at a sign. Turn on mouse controls, apply love injector, and right click a sign to look at it.

Love Thyself

Love Thyself.png Fall in love with yourself.
Inject yourself with a love injector and look at yourself.

May the Ground Shake But the Six Day Stilt Never Tumble

Main article: Six Day Stilt

Mechanimist Reformer

Mechanimist Reformer.png Convince the High Priest of the Stilt to join your party.

Me, Myself, and I

Me, Myself, and I.png Share the map with 10 clones of yourself.
Can be obtained with a space inverter fitted with a beamsplitter by shooting at several walls, ruins usually have a good geometry for this. It is much easier to obtain with a high quickness as the clones disappear after 5 rounds. Alternatively, drink or cook cloning draught, use Temporal Fugue, or combine cloning methods to have several clones of yourself.

Clonal Colony

Clonal Colony.png Share the map with 30 clones of yourself.

Mumblecore

Mumblecore.png Learn a secret from the microbiome.
Main article: Mumble mouth

Mutagenic Mastery

Mutagenic Mastery.png Advance a mutation to level 15.
Have at least one mutation at level 15.

It is much, much easier to do this with a Mental Mutation, as Mental Mutations can get their level boosted by Ego. You can also use mutants' rapid advancement to boost a physical mutation to this level.

Non-Locally Sourced

Non-Locally Sourced.png Cook a meal with an extradimensional limb as an ingredient.

Open Your Mind

Open Your Mind.png Have your head explode.
Die to the burst of damage at the end of Sunder Mind.

Peekaboo

Peekaboo.png Become loved by newly sentient beings.
Gain a reputation of more than 600 with newly sentient beings.

Somewhat difficult to attain, due to the rarity of newly sentient beings. Reputation can be gained from Schrodinger pages and water ritualing creatures that are loved by newly sentient beings and killing creatures hated by them. Completing Landing Pads is also helpful, as it offers a reputation boost of 300 with them.

Proteus

Get damaged by a neutron flux explosion or similar effect, such as the explosion caused by failing to examine an tier 8+ artifact with Dystechnia (D) or the explosion created by baetyls and sparking baetyls when at low health.

Six Arms None the Richer

Six Arms None the Richer.png Have six arms.
Take the multiple arms mutation and equip helping hands. Or grow four extra arms via Chimera. Or dominate a creature that has 6 limbs (most members of insects, arachnids and crabs factions qualify), such as a beetlebum.
