*Happens a lot in Dwarf Fortress. Ubiquitous spirals! Spirals everywhere!

[SRD]

Meh, after I made another world I ended up killing babies on purpose anyway so wtf am I babbling about LOL.

[Chipperbane]

Unsure what to do, I built a bridge over the river bisecting everything for my vampire, stationed her across the way, build a wall with a roof around her on top of the tallest mountain, and destroyed the bridge. We'll see what happens.

That baby's still being questioned, though. Lack of empathy? Lack of pity? Sociopath, through and through.

Anyone checked if a dwarf with her breasts cut off in combat will make the dwarf baby starve to death?

[Loud Whispers]

Dwarves don't have bp:breasts

As far as DF is concerned, everything is covered by the upper body

Throw the baby into a river, if it lives it's a vampire if it drowns you just murdered a baby so win-win.

[SRD]

Lock it up in a room, if it becomes hungry it's not a vampire, if it is.. KILL THE WRETCHED BEAST.

Dwarves are actually monotremes.  They don't nurse, they just secrete booze directly from pores on their skin.  The baby laps it up as it drips down the mother's skin.

Are only dwarfs vampires?, anyone seen a Kobold Vampire yet? anyone willing to draw fanart thereof?

I once generated a world where a Dwarven civilization was ruled by a goblin vampire.

Pre-chewed plump helmets.

I'm still waiting for vampire cutebold art.

[Monk321654]

If Dwarves are Monotremes, that means they lay eggs too.
Nah...

Although I am dead set on the thesis that Kobolds are essentially a three way combo of a Playpus, a Dog, and a Gremlin.

Not to rain on the parade, but I don't think a baby can be a vampire. Why?

Have you ever seen a baby arrive in a migrant wave?

No! Babies are only born in your fort. I have never seen a migrant bring a baby. I have never seen a baby in adventurer mode. Children, yes, but never babies. Outside of your fort everyone is born as a 1-year-old child, which I imagine must be somewhat uncomfortable for the mother.
 
Babies do not voluntarily eat or drink, so there is no way that a baby could become a vampire unless it were injured, moved to a bed, and given water laced with vampire blood. This strikes me as improbable, although that doesn't mean it isn't worth testing

Also worth testing is what happens to mothers who drink vampire blood while they are still carrying babies around.
