Animal people joining civ
« on: February 06, 2019, 12:29:35 pm »

Perhaps intelligent creatures roaming around the fort could decide to check it out and maybe even petition for citizenship. This would be a neat addition and a better way to get animal people and other intelligent beings like plump helmet men and gorlaks to join your civilization, especially if the world's history is very short.

I think they only do in worldgen? It's quite rare in any case.

This only seems to apply currently when an intelligent creature from another civ visits. I'm talking about the non-aligned ones you can find in the cavern and the surface (in a savage biome)

It should require either a string previous acculturation (i.e. the individual or the band had stringer and stronger relation with the fortress) or an external threat such as famine or an invader.
