The dwarves can make nearly anything into an artifact (food too?) but most are just junk and some are more of a curse when creating dwarf refuses to let go.
So I made this thread to come up with suggest for the more lame artifacts.
Doors and floodgates:
Indestrutible except by one material.
intelligence - The door can open to friends and stay closed to enemies, automaticly
Teleporter - The door is connected to another artifact door. Can be one way!(Can the pathing engine handle teleporters Toady?)
Expander - The door grow to fit any opening!
Containers:
Alchemical - when the item is filled/stuffed with a fluid/items, it will transmute the contants into a different/random fluid.
Holding - The container holds more than it should.
Holding 2 - The internals of the container is one of the fortress'es own stock piles! (Again teleportation)
Hungry - The container eats items, dwarves sometimes!
Time Bandit - The container can steal things from the future! This lead to bad things happening as "interest" is paid by losing items over time. The more you borrow, the higher the interest payments. :eek:
Beds:
Sound Sleeper - A tantruming dwarf couldn't disrupt the sleep of dwarf on this bed.
Medical - wounds heal quicker
Safe Sleeper - come flood, dragonfire, lizardmen, no harm shall come to the sleeper.
You guys get the idea...
