Best. Announcement. Ever.
« on: February 29, 2012, 12:29:29 pm »


I'm guessing this isn't quite intentional.

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

And, the same as all the other threads like this, it will turn into some creature next full moon.

Maybe he's just SO badass that the game has to announce his presence everywhere he goes.

It actually happened very rarely in 31.25.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Lol, I made the same post a couple days ago :p

Mine turned into a weregilla, fell over a waterfall, and now her ghost hangs around the body, transforming back and forth every full moon :p

"The ghostly weregilla monster has turned into a dwarf!"

Is it because light travels faster than sound,
that people appear bright until you hear them speak?

It's treated as completely normal because this is Dwarf Fortress.  There's absolutely nothing wrong with surrounding yourself with a wall of flames, only to later realize that you're surrounded by a wall of flames.
There's nothing that can't be solved by hurling fifteen roc birds at it.

That actually sounds like it would suck.  Even in death, you'd still be cursed to wander the earth, transforming into some horrible monster every full moon.  I wonder if ghosts could pass on the werecurse somehow?

To make magma-proof, set melting/boiling temperature higher than 12000. To make magma proof, set magma to be brewable.

Custom transformations got you down?

I believe in 0.31.x there was a player who had a farmer announced. Much fun ensued. (Not !!FUN!!).
"The farmer Muthkat McMegaDorf has arrived! A short sturdy creature fond of drink and industry."
"Beware his deadly hoe!"
"Beware his deadly cabbages!"
