If I steal things under the cover of darkness, sneaking, and everyone else sleeping, will I be beaten up when i come back at day?
How do you not get hated? Usually stealing or assaulting anyone makes you hated everywhere.

I've had my sword stolen from me before, I managed to throw my steel shield and kill the enemy the next turn though. I felt like Captain America.

Apparently you do.
Good thing I saved before stealing everything.

How does one get a weapon stolen? Does it get lodged in the enemy and then they pull it out and use it?

Usually my targets are too dead or too weak to steal stuff from me.

Yeah, if it gets stuck a sufficiently good wrestler/big/strong enemy can steal the weapon. Good wrestlers can take it right from you sometimes too.

Yeah. You see your weapon get stolen mostly with bandit leaders, some of which have very good skill, and night creatures.

Mmm. Maybe I'll encounter this on my new character, but he's a monk so it won't really matter.

Biting is really useful, because low level fist fighting damage sucks, but at higher levels bludgeoning damage is way better than piercing.

Biting off a kobold's arm then beating him to death with it is great too.

Yeah, that too. In my first boss battle with my monk, I was getting stabbed all over the place. I even got mortally wounded. Then I found out that biting has a really high chance to hit. So I mangled both of the guys hands, then kicked him in the head.

Hah, unarmed combat... I catch arrows with my body and throw them back for instant kills.

Biting people and then shaking them around. They usually panic and can't do anything useful.

lol All of my stuff gets deflected by armor.

I can rarely find enough armor to cover most of my body. Even then, the armor usually can't do anything or the enemy hits the gaps.
