- Flammable Fungiby Null_ErrorI found it kind of sad that burning down fungi with Kindle, one of the few uses for this mostly useless mutation, took forever and a day. So this mod changes the heat resistance of all puffing fungi from -10 to -100 and lowers their HP from 150 to 65. This guarantees that with normal ambient temp...334 downloadsupdated 7 y ago

- Consider Quicknessby 76561198827901221the problem: when you use Wait N Turns, it tries to suggest a number of turns to wait based on the cooldown of your activated abilities, but waiting is affected by the player's quickness, so when your quickness is not 100, the number of turns you wait does not properly line up with how long the c...334 downloadsupdated 6 mo ago

- Indefinite Dominationby Moon Fairy KyraSince I'm learning to mod the game, and saw literally nothing similar or like this. I decided to increase the base time limit of Domination to 1,000,000 turns. This means the formula is now (1,000,000 * Level of Mutation) so that you'll have a base of 1,000,000 turns and get an addtional 1,000,00...323 downloadsupdated 9 y ago
- Nephilim Dialogueby MazianniSPOILERS AHEAD FOR LATEGAME SECRET BOSSES! ----- The Nephilim, in Caves of Qud, are the bosses one may optionally face as friend or foe; in the case of the former, however, they lack dialogue of any kind.

- Named Through Carnageby ZippyIn vanilla, the only chances to name an item are on level up, on completing a quest, and once every 6 levels, killing a legendary creature.
