Forever alone...
« on: February 26, 2012, 03:01:27 pm »

Ever since the last content patch every dwarf that came to my fort (except the starting seven) had a whole bunch of relatives, a pet or at least something he worshiped. And then, she arrived:
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
She has no friends, no family, no gods not even a friend. She is over 100 years old. And she is fat.
She is an avatar of the "forever alone" meme. What should I do with her? Turn her in to a queen? Watch her die alone in the depths? Any ideas?

Build a grid of floor grates above the entire city. Draft a squadron of masons and bomb the crap out of the city with falling constructed walls.

She's a vampire. Wall her into a tiny room and throw goblins in every once in a while.

Thank you everyone for the help! I've since flooded the fortress I was working on and now have a new one going up.

Otherwise, help her have friends. Or give her an axe. Axes are friendly.

I'm in debate between "militia commander" and "good lord she's a perfect test subject for all things tantrum!"

I've had a few of these myself. It's weird, but I suppose it helps dwarven society better mimic real life. Or something.
