It isn't a new Dwarf Fortress version until we're made to fear some kind of regular creature.  Carp, Elephants, Unicorns, Badgers, and now Mosquitos.  I've got 5 dorfBucks on the next one being plagues of groundhogs.

What about a pet rock?


Every dwarf just loves a pet rock!

Since we're talking about rocks, I took about 5 minutes to make this picture...

My mod has pet rocks already, but they're toys. We MUST get living pet rocks.


...And magma kittens too. Especially magma kittens.

Yes, mother ****ing walruses stormed in through my well room, fatally gored my expedition leader, and danced off into the frosty tundra to sing happy walrus songs about oysters.

I was thinking lava shrimp or magma hippocampi or volcano vultures or something that swims. Yes, volcano vultures swim. They use little winglike structures, feed on charred organic matter and dead magma crabs, etc, and lay eggs that have obsidian shells, while males lay obsidian stones as unusual eggs. Their long necks are used to reach into crevices in the magma sea or to peek out of volcanoes to figure out if this spot has sufficient organic matter to char when food it lacking in the magma sea. Their feathers are flakes of obsidian, and their main method of attack is spewing fireballs. They are tamed for their feathers, which make oddly fashionable garments, their eggs, and their firebreathing talents, but catching a volcano vulture is easier said then done.

Yes, I made that up on the spot. Give me an hour and I'll have an ecosystem of a dozen magma-living organisms of various sorts, with everything from food sources to breeding habits noted. I have an active imagination, marking me as an excellent idea-spewer.

[GreatWyrmGold] gets a little crown. May it forever be his mark of Cain; let no one argue pointless subjects with him lest they receive the same.

I made pet rocks once.
They were modified cave blobs made from granite that died easily.

die easily when they are made of fucking granite?!?

a mod I use has tiny granite creatures called momons, and they wiped out my fort, after shrugging off war hammers, picks, spears, swords, etc.

how the fuck are they weak?
I dunno, but it seems that one hit seems to kill them.

I guess you forgot to edit the structure and skin (?) layers of those blobs, there is still a lot more to edit than just the composition of the creature. Ask someone who knows how to edit the Raws, you may have missed something.




And is my idea of pet rocks coming through?  :P
