I encountered my first real-game Wrestler Brute today. But before that its almost autumn, marking my 55th day alive with this character. I spent the last week and a half unloadng my truck into the warehouse in very general piles. I built a welder and a hauler, and read up on my computers and electronics. I cooked the fruit that was going rotten, and lost most of it and the plant marrow from before. Oh wells. I still have over 100 ant eggs and several nonperishables. My health was such that I was waking up readily and happily, and with the fast reader trait and a good set of tunes I even ventured into ‘To Cook Man’ some. I need some metal to craft some decorative display racks and lockers, and Im planning on adding a semi-outdoor forgery area. Im shocked at the floor layout of the warehouse insofar as there was a toilet in the same room as the manager’s desk in the same room as a sofa for guests in the same room as bookshelves. 
Eww.
Ive taken to dumping my compostables into the river. I havent gotten to cleaning up the few stragglers that have wandered my way, but its a lot more peaceful here than at the maintainance area. I found a mini-reactor somewhere and made sure to mark it down, so Ill probs be using that when I decide that its too annoying to keep my isle lights on or shuffle in and out seperate mounted floodlights and batteries.
After all that I decided to focus on books over everthing else.
Crossing over the river to raid a bookstore for a specific book I not only found it but had spare time on my hands. I was 0200 and I was parked on a bridge some tiles away. I usually carry a rucksack on my person, so that the 60-90 clothing storage I have can be expanded into 180. So I looked around and found a hatchback with a crappy battery but still in working condition.
Taking the batteries out of my mp3 player, I started it up and rammed into a gunstore. I tried to move it to the other side of the street to ram into an adjacent gunstore, but in the alley I got stopped by a small horde. And wouldn’t you know it but the hatchback has the interia of a wet cloth.
Stopping me in my tracks, I get out and kill the horde. My main weapon is a steel spear, and I learned some twquando and had a grappling hook for reserve.
Driving to the other side, I rammed into the store to no result. I reverse an tried again. The car sputtered angrilly at 40 kmh, threatening to blow its gaskets. I failed to damage my way in once more, and on the reverse I ran into a small horde, 2 hunters, some fatties and kids, a brute and a weirdly colored one. The Wrestling Brute.
The wrestler seems to prefer to grab you from afar, drag you, trip you, and then toss you in no particular order. I let him bite on occassion too and Im sure he did that. He brutally stipped me of my messanger bad and my back holster, he crushed my helmet, and even damaged a waterskin. Somehow he left the duter intact though, but I only have 40 space now. And 2 gunstores worth of ammo that I cant haul back. And a dmaged torso and left arm. I would like to imagine he ben my steel spear into its present |\ condition too.
His health might be too high? I made it lower than a shocker brute, but oc almost every zom has lower health than a shocker bute. A regular brute has 120 health, for example, and the shocker brute 300 
pedit: The book I went out for, Robotics and you or w.e. its called, isnt being found in the truck. I also cant find my binoculars, amoung other things. Im suspecting it fell out of the inventory when the wrestler attacked. Which is a shame because I went back for the binoculars and couldn’t find them. Which suggests acid or fire -_-
