You could look at my challenge list–.

or how about a Princess Bride win: "I am not left-handed". You could have one GEF or Phoenix feather arm that you switch to in the middle of the fight once Petrus starts kicking your ass. Melee death to Petrus with a sword is a must. If you have no seen this movie due to its sissy name then all I can say is "Incoceivable!"

Yeah, there should be a style multiplier for the score. As I recall one of his wives was very bitter about all the other wives maybe it was #1? Armed with twin pussywhips +11..........

Here's a list of cool things that are possible to do in Vanilla IVAN.
I haven't done all of them. I'd love to see screenshots or hear your accounts of attempts at the challenges.

1) Get 55 Int and 55 Wis from Sophos by praying for limbs. Hint - legs work best. Pimp your gear.

2) Become a champion of Cleptia and steal the Justifier with of whips of thievery.
Hint: throwing whips of thievery has a special advantage.

3) Kill Petrus with his own sword obtained in #2

4) Get an armless pet and some sulphuric acid and steal everything from the treasury and armory in the Cathedral.

5) Tame all the dwarves in the cathedral and all the dwarves you meet in the dungeons and bring them back to Attnam and start your coup d'état with a big bang.

6) For bonus points use your legless pet to kick land mines under Petrus and all the guards before starting #5

7) Open the meteoric steel chest by having angry Loricatus turn them into banana flesh and eating them. Great if they have wand of cloning. Alternatively use the chest for an Ommel cerumen cheat.

8) Get as many named baddies as possible in one screen shot

9) make kamikaze dwarf superbombers give them ridiculous amounts of explosives and wands. Wreak havoc in attnam and new attnam. Kill petrus with your pet.

10) Bring your pet enner beast to slaughter attnam. Hint piss him off immediately before he screams and makes everyone mad at you. Enner plus political immunity = peaceful massacre of attnam.

11) Train a hit squad of elite guards to take out and see how 1337 they can be. eg hit named baddies, elpuri, decos, Petrus. Its possible to get their arm strength over 80 fairly quickly.

12) do the same with Dark knights, mistresses

13) get Vladimir's HP high enough to take on elpuri one on one

14) get Valpurium sword and shield from Valpurus and arcanite plate mail from atavus.

15) get an army of floating eyes and kill named badies/decos/elpuri/petrus anyone you can while they sleep. I have not tried this one so no idea if it works.

16) dismember as many named baddies as possible with valpurium bear traps. bring them to one level for a screen shot

17) steal Sherarax's whips (I have done this one). Having her trapped helps immensely. Try a line of traps and you definitely want to be hasted and have high Agi.

18) beat Ischaldirh. Ressurect him in attnam.

19) mine UT4 crystals with a thunderhammer. get monsters to stand on crystals while you fight them.

20) make an army of mages and mystic frogs. Kick some asses. A key to bringing your armies to other levels is mining around the stairs.

21) Tame all of tameable Attnam. Start a revolution. Hint leave your guards outside of cathedral while the dwarves start the initial assault. Also hide your mystic frogs in the treasury or dwarf room.

22) tame petrus' wives then kill them in front of him.

23) tame equip and train petrus's wives and have them assassinate petrus after you soften him up for a bit. Probably best to leave them in GC1 while you clean house then bring them in for the kill.

24) bitch slap petrus with elpuri's head. post a screenshot

I'll think of more

25) Princess Bride "I am not left-handed win". Melee Petrus with 1-handed sword in your LH until your AOLS kicks in then switch to your Artificial limb RH for the kill.

26) Get Justifier but leave Petrus alive and not pissed off. Complete a non-Chaos win with Justifier. It takes creativity to think of how to do this. I have a way.

27) Raze the Cathedral with a hattifattener.

Every time you changed forms you would lose stats boosts. If you polymorphed into an elite dark knight and "you choose not to polymorph" I don't know what would happen to your stats boosts.

Its a shame that you can't cast spells when polymorphed into a mage.

I can't remember, is it possible to polymorph into named baddies/chars? A giant carnivorous mutant bunny victory would be sweet! An Elpuri win would have a new meaning. Sadly I don't think it's possible.

I have had permanent polycontrol from fountains. Its a petty random process though and wuite often you end up perma slowed

AFAIK the "polymorphing" status could become permanent via mushrooms and fountains6 and eating mutants but you won't permanently stay in one form.

Makes me think about cured ham.

Gets leprosy. Arm falls off. Dips severed arm in bottle of brine. Arm is *cured* :grin. Eats cured arm. No more leprosy.

If only IVAN wasn't dead.

I just tried it in Wiz mode. I imagine there is a killed_petrus=true flag in the code somewhere needed to trigger chaos win. I walked out of the city with his left nut and nothing happened. Maybe its just wizmode?

I'll try it in a real game when I have time and the right gear.

When is Guy Fawkes Day?

I don't thing dismembered limbs holding leprosy is a bug. You could get leprosy from a severed leper limb IRL.

I am a genius

I don't recall ever seeing this method posted before but this works well.

How many times have you been fighting a golem or dark knight or any random humanoid and had it kick you after you severed both its arms off?? Well this happened and I thought "Lightbulb!" had a rookie dark night follow me into GC 3 shop and he kicked out a nice pile of gear for me. The problem was its hard to get gear out the door, luckily the shop had two doors. Gear goes right by guards when the monster kicks and they don't get mad.

Anyway, I had another lightbulb go off. Sulphuric acid!!! Drop it where you want an exit and the monster kicks it breaking the wall allowing stuff to go flying out without causing alarm.

So I tamed the knight brought him to Attnam. Kicked him and used the sulphuric acid trick to empty the shop and get gear out of treasure room and armory.

And then... Lightbulb!!! dropped large mines and RDK kicked them three paces. Go to Cathedral and dropped mines 3 paces in front of Petrus and Taadaa!!! Perfect mine placement under Petrus' chair Tamed a veteran kamikaze dwarf and had him follow me to Petrus. Kicked him with him directly in front of Petrus and me on the other side and he set off his big backpack and the mines. I died in the explosion but I am certain this is a legit way to peacefully assassinate Petrus with more fire resistance and HP.

Edit: or of course I could have had a second pet standing by Petrus for the kamikaze dwarf to attack and detonate the bomb under Petrus' chair. Damn why didn't I think of that.

Although if I don't kill Petrus directly I probably can't become the Avatar of Chaos so if I really wanted the win I would have to set off the explosion personally. It's still a nice trick for planting a bomb under his chair "Oh and by the way Petrus......KABOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!

Lame other tip:
Same game same level I found an eddy in the space-time continuum and got him to follow me into the shop by taking my ring of invisibility on an off.
