Strange mood creates crutch
« on: April 22, 2010, 09:31:11 am »

I'm wondering if anyone has seen a dwarf with a strange mood create a legendary... crutch!

I personally think it would be awesome to have one of my veterans walking around with a crutch that has elephants carved on it and menaces with spikes of red spinel or something.

Wouldn't be very epic, but at least it is an useful artifact (opposed to an artifact mini forge)

I really want that one as a "when". I want "grubs", and "virgin woman" to turn into a dragon. and monkey children to suddenly sprout wings. And I want the Dwarven Mutant Academy to only gain their powers upon reaching puberty. I also have a whole host of odd creatures that only make sense if I divide them into children and adults.

Also, tadpoles.

Will they actually use those?

You need to make said elf leather into the most amazing work of art.  Embed it with every kind of gem you have, stud it with metals, and sew images into it.  Erect a shrine outside your fort with that in the center.  Let the elves know that you view their very skin as naught more but a medium for your dwarves to work on.

No idea if they'll use them... My fort has heaps of clothing artifacts that no one touches, even legendaries...

I got an adamantine crutch, encircled with black bronze, studded with gold, and encrusted with fortification agate.

It gave me 56 dwarves to reclaim with... I'm hoping the game is just being nice to me...
Good job Roger!

...

Now I want crutches to be wielded as weapons using the crutch walker skill... imagine, a squad made up of legendary crutch walkers wielding artifact crutches charging the invading goblins with cries of "Get of my lawn!"

Is anyone else reminded of Windle Poon's (or whatever his name was) wheelchair from discworld?

What do you really need to turn Elves into Dwarves? Mutation could make them grow a beard; insanity effects could make them evil-minded, aggressive, tree-hating cave dwellers, and instant, full necrosis of their lower legs could make them short.

I was more thinking of the silver hoard...

I lost that fort to the HFS, and I'm not about to track it down in adventure mode. So this will have to do:

I got an artifact cave spider silk sock this morning. It's worth 5,720 dwarfbucks, and it doesn't menace with spikes of anything.

Dwarfs don't have issues.  Dwarfs merely have inspiration for the legendary artifact they will one day make.

Considering the general state of DF, I think Einstein and Newton are already rotating fast enough that you could hook them up to pumps and use them to kill Elves.
