If you look in the community stories subforum, you'll find hundreds of community/succession game threads which have lots of in-depth backstory to roleplay the forts.

As for my forts, I go by "some architect or scholar convinced the king to send some dwarves to build an outpost. They would build up wealth to attract goblins and then create interesting stories out of the invaders to record in the history engravings."
"This is an engraving of a dwarf and an elf. The dwarf is committing a depraved act against the elf. The elf is cowering a menacing pose."

Is that the kind of interesting you meant?  :P

Actually, I was more thinking of "This is an engraving of a ridiculous contraption, an elf and some dwarves. The contraption is simultaneously committing six depraved acts on the elf. The elf is unconscious. The dwarves are spectating."

Congrats, Psieye. This is the first time I've seen a derailed thread get put back on the rails.
