    I've exploded an Avian temple, then flooded it and watch them drown.

    Because they pissed me off

    I killed an entire Avian village because they didn't give me the quest I wanted. I also plan on flooding any Hylotl underwater villages I see.

    Tbh i have no idea how i managed to get into the protectorate... I'm just about the worst thing to have happened to the galaxy!
    Even my crew isnt safe! Always bring the redshirts (even dressed them in the proper uniforms) on dangerous missions, and dont even feed the cat either.
    And while my crew is fairly varied (only missing an apex), thats really only so I can bring the proper species to raid the settlements of their own people.
    Also my settlements consists of the bare minimum to get the NPCs i want, and i'll usually keep kicking tenants untill someone who pleases me visually shows up. (Did manage to find and abduc--- err, HIRE Isaac from deadspace, funky helmet and all)

    Obviously my first two crewmembers were criminals i beat into submission so they'd join my gang-I MEAN CREW!
    Both times, waltzed straight back to the guards who put up the bounty with them in tow.. Fully armed and clearly ready to go with me and raid the settlement once I got paid.

    Did the exact same thing than since I already had the achievement I figured no one can tell the difference between one dead npc and a lot of dead npcs and so in summary I crammed as many tenants as I could in a hole than therw some cocktails in to watch them all die only to respawn and jump back into the fire it was the most gruesome (and enjoyable thing) i ever did, or at least until I finish my fluffalo basketball court

    While "exploring" and "testing" the game, I learned I could spawn in infinite bombs.

    Over the next number of hours I destroyed multiple villages from each of all 6 races, as well as a number of dungeons, plant surfaces, and anything else unfortunate enough to get in my way.

    I wiped out an entire Floran village. I play a rather vengeful Hylotl. Come to think of it, it might have been several villages, filthy Florans.

    Me and my friend went on a murderous rampage around an entire planet. We found; An agaran village, a Glitch castle, a Human bunker, and an Avian pirate ship. Each and every NPC on the planet was killed. On a somewhat related note, we found the challenge room with the bunny and the cat. I really wanted the cat. my friend murdered it then picked up the bunny. I will never invite him into challenge rooms with me ever again. I will always look for you, :kitten:.

    I am a Floran, and started my crew out with five Floran (3 soldiers, 2 medics). I figured I wanted a little variety though, so at the next settlement I found which happened to be a Hylotl village, I did some quests and picked up a tailor. I found his crew page rather accurate for one Hylotl trapped on a ship with half a dozen hungry-looking Floran:

    Name: Hideyoshi
    Job: Tailor
    Rank: Just your average Tailor
    Status: Feeling Terrified


    Several crew members later, his status remains the same. He only ever makes the hands-in-the-air-screaming emote, often when surrounded by the Floran who follow him all over the ship making :D faces.

    I keep him around because his terror isss even sssweeter than his flesssh. >:}

    MadMachinist Yeah, You!

    I built my colony next to a Floran village, and one of the guards just kinda invited himself in and kept getting in my way. So I trapped him in a square and filled it with lava.

    He deserved it, honest.

    I may have also done the same to my pet snake. Just wanted to see if it would respawn. >_>

    i got mad because i thought the shadow-npcs were being cryptic assholes and refusing to tell me anything, so i stabbed one of them. turns out they were mute.

    If you use the Job Offer mod, you can hire them. One of them was being cheeky scrub and kept getting in my way so I hired him as a janitor and lock him in the very back of my ship to clean his own cell. Sweet sweet revenge.

    I had been stacking Molotov's since the beginning of the game, you can guess what happened. I burned down an avian airship then proceeded to murder the angered crew. I then went on to burn down a floral vil, murdered all after wards. I then moved on and found an avian temple which I tore down and defaced with my graffiti. Then I just moved on to the next planet. I passed an apex vil which I robbed all the items, but didn't destroy, I am an apex and they already have enough problems with me building an interracial war against them. I went arso on a hylotyl surface vil, the one merchant left alive said I was "worse than the floran menace", so true...

    pre-1.0 I needed allot of blocks, allot of very specific blocks.... so I found this very large very quiet peaceful avian village.... and took every single last thing they ever had, when I was done there was only a hole in the ground and all the wild aggressive creatures were eating them all as they ran around in fear screaming for help, but their guards were all dead... r.I.p...

    In 1.0 I guess the worse thing ive done was while playing with my friend, we were doing the quest for scanning hylotl things, and we found this massive underwater hylotl city, first we went in peaceful, but then my friend was outside of the city and he died , when he got back he did not come in by an entrance, instead he made a huge hole in one of the hylotl garden areas and then patched it up with dirt allot of stuff got broken and i accidentally picked it all up so the guards started to attack me, so he removed the dirt and all the water started to flood, then we started breaking other parts, soon the entire city was flooded... :rofl:

    My tale is from Glad Giraffe, when friendly NPCs weren't intangible entities as they're now, you could have hit and kill them. And, lore-wise, Floran were bloodthirsty man-eating hunters (well, they still are, but now that aspect is partially downplayed and partially retconned). So while I understood that all those NPC actually just pieces of data and whatever I can do to them won't influence anything, part of me kinda wanted to give them a taste of their own medicine.

    Basically, I went full Konrad Curze on their asses. Some part of me, probably the same part that wanted retribution, even enjoyed devising new ways of killing them without alerting the guards. Grenade, lobbed over the building. One-shot sniper kill, placed from across the half of a village. Silent takedown in one deft swipe of a blade, when no one was nearby. I remember at least three vilagges eradicated that way, with nothing left but empty buildings, as if their denizens just suddenly disappeared. I was basically a serial killer, and I enjoyed it. The hunt is on, flower people, and this time you are not the ones stabbing.

    Or it was, because, as I said, they're invincible to "friendly" fire now and not as cruel in lore as they were.

    Other than that, I don't even actually remember anything. I, come to think of it, don't even steal from NPCs and turn every puddle I see into a healing water (handy for healing on move, plus makes a good landmark and glows in the dark). Only thing that gets close is capturing Apex Mutant in a creature pod. I mean, imagine being a guinea pig for some probably not very sane scientist, then being left for indefinite amount of time in the empty research complex that is slowly crumbling apart, then some guy barges in, shoves a rifle in your face, stuffes you into a pokeball and uses as a meatshield. Not your proudest moment, eh?
