Ok, first time ever, I made it to Mountainhome.  I look to see the king, and there it sits.  An E.  I have So-and-so-and-so-and-so, Elf King as my regent.

Well, fine, whatever.  That explains the elven liaison I kept getting.  However, the problem is that I can't seem to assign the guy the room I made for him.  He's just not on the list.  He's in the dining room just standing around, probably once his migrant status wears off he'll go crazy because his lessers have rooms while he does not.

I've assigned rooms during migrant status before.  What's up?



Edit:  Image.  Also, he's "Quick to anger".  I wonder how he felt walking past all the treestumps on the way to my fort.

Another edit:  Maybe he's the reason my group was named "The Frilly Boot".  Bloody elves.

[Reyyvo]

hmm, time to dump him and hope for a dwarf?

[Dadamh]

Do Kings get replaced?  I'd heard they did not.

[Reyyvo]

if he doesnt, that solves even more of the problem

[Dadamh]

He was born in an elven retreat that had been conquered by the dwarves, to a certain mother but uncertain father.  It's not really explained how he became King.  His history is basically "Born, became a thresher (weird profession for an elf), became leader of a military squad, killed some other elf, became ruler of the civ"

That elf is his only kill in about 150 years.

He keeps leading attacks but not killing anyone.  He's also worshiping a Titan, though it's "Dubious" worship.

I abandoned the fort (saved so I can view legends, then put the old save back) and he immediately became ruler of the migrant group.

I love the legends mode being so complete these days!

omg this world is doomed... an elf leads a dwarven civ thats against all dwarven ethics!

[Fortis]

On the other hand, it could be seen as a victory for the dwarves, if they've managed to get an elf to eat meat and condone leveling the forest.

[Dadamh]

Well, that, and he chose a mountainhome that consistently says no to limiting lumber industry and raises kittens as it's main foodstuff.

World gen. The results can be quite interesting. There are a couple of topics like this btw. 

[Jreengus]

If you cant assign him a room check your units list, is he listed as friendly rather than one of your dwarfs? If so this is a known bug. (click the link in my sig)

Yeah, I know, but I preferred a new topic to effective thread necromancy.

I abandoned the fort.  I'll probably check in on the king in a couple years of world time to see where he went.

Edit:  Haha, the Titan he was worshipping was shot to death in my fort the year before he arrived.  That's got to be odd.  "Oh, you worship Id Taughtletter The Age of Forever?  Ha!  I killed her last year!  Small world!"

[Rhenaya]

grabbed for sig :>

That really is great.  I can just picture it.  Him rallying the whole nation, and calling on this huge crusade for, I dunno, "Dragon-tor" or something.  And this one section of the crowd just sort of looks at each other real shifty.

"Uh, Urist McKing?  We sort of...  ate Dragon-tor.  Urist McBonecrafter made a real nice...  was it a chair?  I think it was a chair.  Anyway, real nice chair.  Left wing-bone.  Super-comfy."

[Dadamh]

I laughed when I saw it.  At least it's 'dubious' worship on his legends page.  I guess it does hurt your faith when your god was made into crossbow bolts and shot at targets for practice.
