Night troll kidnapping
« on: October 07, 2023, 12:58:26 pm »

Night trolls could either kidnap people by catching travelers in the wilderness at night, or infiltrating a location as a visitor to persuade a person to follow them outside by shape-shifting into a sapient creature and appearing benign. Ideally, the latter could be encountered in fort mode.

If you're so sure that you're gonna end up killing all of dwarven civilization, why not make a statue depicting 2147483647 dead dwarves, all of which are burning? Name it something good, like Deaddead the Dead Dead Dead-Dead of Dying. Just put it in the main hall or something, as a grim reminder that they're all gonna die.

How exactly would you intervene against the siren's song of a night troll trying to lure dwarves away?

Probably a lovely interview with your fortress guards or your hammer. Ideally, disguised night creatures could be detected by knowledgeable dwarves or an observant player.
