Pretty self explanitory.

He, Goden MirroredBlanket, is the expedition leader. He is 112 years old, is incredibly muscular, with greying amber hair.

He is also wearing an exceptional silk dress, made from exceptional silk. That happens to be on fire.

There *are* shirts available.... he just chose not to wear one.

Clearly, dwarf fortress has a very peculiar sense of humor.

[JimDale]

How did it catch fire in the first place?
Did he run out of tinder for a fire and decide to use the silk dress while it was still on him?

[wierd]

I don't know how he managed to catch it on fire.

The game log shows no fights with fire spitting monsters, and he didn't take a magma facial.

Yet, there he is. Flaming. In a dress.

[AWdeV]

Eh, Dwarves just have a different set of ideas of what is "appropriate" to wear and what isn't. They don't seem to be into arbitrarily defining clothes as belonging to either sex.

And, ofcourse, dwarves are idiots and DF fire is idiotic too.

[JimDale]

Sounds like a prime candidate for the Darwin award

[Psieye]

And, ofcourse, dwarves are idiots and DF fire is idiotic too.

Though Toady has promised he'd do some fire detection into dwarven AI before he ends this current bugfix season.

[wierd]

I suppose it beats having him run around naked.

Temperature is turned off, so he isn't in any danger of burning to a crisp, so that's ok for the time being.

I have assigned him the miner labor, and once he finishes eating, drinking, and "being merry", I will burrow him near a pool on a single tile, and have him channel it ou, dunking his flaming butt in the drink.

Perhaps a cold dip will sort this flaming fashionista out.

The closer DF gets to real life, the worse it will be...

[wierd]

Plunking him in the drink solved his flaming problem, but he is still wearing the dress.

Oh well. At least that isn't a fortress ending problem like the former.

If he likes the dress so much, he can keep it.

[Loud Whispers]

Make him the mayor.

[AWdeV]

@ Nightwhips;; Except no, that's baloney.

Ooooh, awesome. Praise be to his toadiness. Anything to make my minions slightly less braindead is good. Not that I've actually ever encountered any fire-related problems but still.

[Girlinhat]

I want to make a joke, but I'm too friendly towards crossdressers to encourage any sort of "lol at the sexual deviant" behavior.  Shame he's so muscular.  The little femme-dressers are cute!

[wierd]

I forgot to mention that he as crooked teeth.

As for cross dressers in general, as long as they do it where other cross dressers hang out, or in private, it is no skin off my back.

But walking around a flamable forest, in a flaming silk dress, nonchalantly in front of everyone? Oooooh Kaayyy....

I should nickname him Frankfurter.

[KodKod]

Frankly I prefer women crossdressing all masculine-like. Tomboys are hot stuff.

[wierd]

Really?  I had you marked down as the flannel wearing one.....

Huh.  The more you know.
