Visits to your fort
« on: March 01, 2013, 02:27:02 pm »
So, this thread is all about neat little visits your adventurer has made to a past fort that may be odd or interesting to you for some reason.

Just recently I had a Dwarven Adventurer unretire and visit my fort Anvilgrowls. Some of the citizens were still even there, I didn't know they would remain sometimes. I manage to find and talk to my legendary mechanic and he has a quest for me to kill the Goblin leader I had captured a few years back. He had apparently escaped his cage and killed 2 Dwarves after the site was abandoned.
So I chop him down, enter the fort and find an artifact earring, which I'm now wearing. More importantly though I find a sheep bone figurine detailing the drowning of someone who traveled with me at the very beginning of my travels.

What are some of your interesting tales?

In one fort I was interrupted from exacting justice on my vampire mayor. I went there as an adventurer, found him, and slew him with an artifact spear.

I had a fort which I submitted for the Museum succession game, Crystaltombs. I was forced to visit as an adventurer because I was an idiot and lost my backpack, thus needing a new one. Although I did eventually find one, it wasn't until AFTER I had gone through the entire damn thing searching, and met every single forgotten beast, who were now chilling in my dining hall and the surrounding grand halls (and actually in the middle of a stairwell. Luckily there were no undead. Unfortunately, there were also no dwarves at all. Probably the FBs' faults.

At the time the fort was active I had used a cheap "fortification at the edge of the map" trick to drain my waterfall. This didn't function so well in adventure mode, and the entire place was slowly taking on water. Luckily, there was a hell of a lot of space to fill, and I was a vampire, so drowning wasn't an issue.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

I walked within broken gates, mismatched mechanisms and rooms full of the dead citizens of the once well-known. Then got bisected by an undead war scorpion.

It was fun indeed.

Just seeing what goblins had to go through was daunting, it made me feel sorry for them in that I rarely left any to run away.
