There are two major forms of water that the player will encounter. If in a pure form, water is rendered as fresh water. Salt water is much more common and cannot be used to satiate thirst or be used for trading. Adding water to any other liquid will cause the liquid to be dilute. Any mentions of water in this article will be assumed to be about fresh water unless specified. A dram of fresh water weighs 0.25 lbs.
If fresh water is found in a large pool (200 drams or greater), it will often show with a brighter white color, flickering much more often than salt water.
Evaporation
When water reaches 100T, it will vaporize into scalding steam, where the drams vaporized/20 is the density of the steam. This steam deals 0.18 * density heat damage to whatever it's in contact with.
Freezing
Water freezes at -100 T. If a creature steps on frozen water, they will be forced to make an Agility save with difficulty 10.
If a creature is in water while the tile is frozen, they will become stuck.

Sources of Water
Water can be found in guaranteed areas as well as randomly generated.
- Trading with someone, with them owing you water.
- Finding pools of it in ruins or underground, usually near glowfish and glowpads.
- In the water stores of Kyakukya.
- water weeps or giant water weeps.
- Using a desalination pellet on salt water will turn it into fresh water.
Uses of Water
Water is a scarce but incredibly important liquid.
- Used for most water rituals.
- Satiates thirst (10,000 a dram).
- Used as base currency for trading.
- Can put out fire (both salty and fresh).
- Can clean off items covered in other liquids (both salty and fresh).
Consuming Water
If you are not Amphibious (D), drinking water manually returns the following message:
Ahh, refreshing! |
If you are, it will return a different message instead:
You pour water on yourself! |
Regardless, drinking water satiates your thirst by 10,000.
