Alcohol Addiction will not go away.

[MalkavianMilkBalls]

My dwarf engaged in a drinking game and through the course of it he was addicted to alcohol. Even since then, whenever I log on it gives me an addiction check, which is fine except that when I fail the will save it says I need my fix and drains my dexterity. I go to buy some of the cheapest alcohol from the inn and I drink, I even drunk 4 bottles at a time, but my dex won't go back up, so everytime I log in, usually spaced by a few hours in between, my dex keeps getting drained and nothing seems to restore it, neither feeding my addiction, nor a restoration potion. Soon hes going to be going into the negatives on his dexterity.

Are you failing the poison check when drinking the alcohol? I believe you have to fail the DC check in order to feed your addiction, otherwise you're not getting drunk.

Kind of like real life

Yea, you need to fail the check to get drunk. After a while as you level or whatever your fortitude will increase and you'll need to drink more and more to become satiated (read: to fail the DC), or move on to stronger booze.

Awesome system btw.

How the hell do you get addicted to alcohol by playing a drinking game?

[MalkavianMilkBalls]

you try drink 15 bottles of alcohol and have a crappy will and see what happens. Anyway thanks for the advice.

A real dwarf would drink 15 bottles before breakfast.

How about drinking one toast after a successful quest in the first 48 hours of making a character and getting the monkey on his back as a result?  Forget 15 bottles!
