Hereditary predisposition towards getting strange moods?
« on: September 03, 2010, 01:00:53 pm »

Could it be that the predisposition towards getting a strange mood (and therefore becoming legendary)
has a hereditary component, with some families being more likely to develope one?
Fortunately since a while I always use the nickname to track family ties aqnd immigration waves and therefore was able to notice a strange coincidence:
One of the families in my fortress is a married couple together with 8 children.
Of these 8 children 3 had a strange mood, with 2 becoming legendary stonecrafters and the 3rd one becoming a legendary woodcrafter.
Especially interesting, as none of the other 50 children in my fortress ever developed a strange mood, so that it seems as if the children of this certain family have an extremly high likelyhood to develope a strange mood.

Anyone else noticed such a pattern in his fortresses (and/or made research into this)
