-Crawl- The joy of Xom

Haha, here's what happened on exactly move 2 of a new game
(my shortest game ever):

Xom's power touches on you for a moment.
You die...

[OT]
Besides this funny incident, I'm absolutely convinced about Xom being a
proper god for centaurs. Food problems after uncontrolled raging was
never a major problem so far (I'm not just talking about this game, of
course). I've even got a troglodyte centaur pretty far and only YASDed
because of boredom (my special technic of "corpse-diving" *is* boring
after a while, but is also able to feed a centaur's stomach and at the
same time making a corpse loving god like Trog extremely happy).

And last not least: if there's anything what Xom is *not* than it's
boring!

That's awesome.

I wouldn't much around with Xom as a centaur tho. I'd rather go with
Makhleb for his "heal from kills"/"lower your food consumption because
you're not resting so much" ability.

Good luck.
