Who would make the best historian?
« on: October 24, 2012, 02:36:14 pm »
What personality traits should I look for when determining a good engraver to engrave fortress history on the walls?

I've had some engraving detailed depictions of goblins falling to their deaths in my Goblinite Retrieval Shafts™, while others have never engraved anything more complex than a circle. Does the personality even have anything to do with it, or is it just engraving skill level?

Mostly good personality trait's, a sense of adventure and creativity is the best.

High traditionality, too, helps iirc. It means they'd engrave more events depicting the mountain home and civilization.
