Do all dead dwarves return as spirits? I abandoned a fortress recently, and everyone is dead. I didn't have too many people, but about 30, maybe 35, so if all of them return from the dead, it would be unfortunate...

Think of it as every dead dwarf gets to roll a dice every once in a while, and if they roll a 1 then they come back as a ghost. So all dead dwarves can come back as ghosts, but not all dead dwarves will (unless you give them a long time that is).

If you bury them or engrave a slab, they won't come back. It'll also give any dwarves who knew them a happy thought.

In an evil biome though, any corpse of any kind, along with individual body parts, is 100% guaranteed to come back and try to eat your dwarves.

35 is not that much. Make sure you craft a couple of coffins as one of the first things when you reclaim the fort. Also have some few slabs ready so you can engrave them when the ghostst start showing up.

I already have built alot of slabs, coffins are next. Thanks^^

Not all evil biomes have resurrecting undead
