Greasing your weapon prevents monsters from disarming it with a bullwhip (though the attempt may cause the grease to wear off it, like usual).

Give a YAFM for attempting to apply a bullwhip towards an adjacent space containing a horse corpse: “Stop beating that dead horse!”

Archeologists can apply their whips to cross over a ground-based trap with impunity, a la Indiana Jones.

Rope golems sometimes drop leashes, bullwhips, or grappling hooks upon death.
