Just noticed, current high-elf ranger is 5'1" and 15 stone 5lb. That's quite short and beefy (fat). shouldn't they be tall and willowy?

A quick web search finds Salgant of House Harp, an overweight elf.

He would make a good mid level unique, since he betrayed Numenor to Maeglin.Comment

Another Ignoring Bug: I guess somewhere in the latest changes, a new ignoring bug was introduced. Ignoring a wooden torch, the only choices were: (a) this item only, or (b) all average lights. We lost ignore wooden torches. On purpose? I liked being able to ignore torches once @ had a lantern.“We're more of the love, blood, and rhetoric school. Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see.”

You can still ignore torches through the knowledge menu. This is inconvenient as a one-at-a-time model, but if you want to ignore a whole lot of things* at once, it is better.

Actually, not. A bog standard wooden torch is not an Ego item, so not in that menu, and while it is an "average" light, so is a lantern, so not in the Quality menu either. It's not inconvenient, it can't be done at all, at least until the bug is fixed or @ is in a position to ignore average lights.“We're more of the love, blood, and rhetoric school. Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see.”

Surely this still works:
1. Open knowledge menu ('~a')
2. Scroll down to Lights
3. Open submenu with right-arrow or 6
4. Toggle squelch with 's'

Is there a specific reason not to allow ignoring objects that can have egos by tval? At some point a warrior has enough str/dex & a good enough weapon to be ignoring all the weapons below a certain base dice for instance.Comment

This was a deliberate change, but maybe requires some more thought.
The issue is that now torches and lanterns can potentially be ego-items or (if you're playing with randarts) artifacts. So ignoring all torches was ignoring artifacts sometimes.
I guess the thing to do is to bring lights back into the "ignore by type" menu but put a special case in to avoid ignoring artifacts - does that sound correct?One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne

You may need to have to separate ignoring menus, one for torches one for lanterns. I think you need to be able to ignore average torches without ignoring average lanterns. Then all should work the same as the other categories. No Ignore, Bad, Average, Good, Non-Artifact. As well as the Ego ignore by types of ego lights.“We're more of the love, blood, and rhetoric school. Well, we can do you blood and love without the rhetoric, and we can do you blood and rhetoric without the love, and we can do you all three concurrent or consecutive. But we can't give you love and rhetoric without the blood. Blood is compulsory. They're all blood, you see.”

Nick-
Using the knowledge menu for ignore has *always* killed possible artifacts. (Ignore daggers, and you won't find any *thancs.) I am perplexed why torches deserve special treatment.Comment
