Summary

0005651: Necromances raise byproducts of butchery, many parts invincible.

Description

On a recent embark, I had to abandon around year three because of necromancers. I had a butcher's shop which wasn't properly cleaned out, and a stealthed necromancer squad arrived. After raising a few pangolins and tigerfish and milling about, they decided to resurrect a tuft of yak hair. I've read that a [GRASP] tag is required for resurrection, so even that part should be a bug. Shortly thereafter, the hair wreaked havoc. It ended up shattering the spines of about a dozen civilians with single push attacks, and though it failed to do much to my military it was invincible - every attack would give the 'but it passes right through!' message.

I'm not completely sure this is a bug, but it seems just silly to have a piece of invincible zombie hair killing everything just by pushing into it. The necromances also raised several, less deadly things such as hooves, which were still mostly invulnerable but did less damage.

Steps To Reproduce

1. Embark near necromancer tower
2. Butcher one starting animal or any other that produces something like hair.
3. Wait for necromancers.
