That's not a specific message, but that's how I interpret it when a new migrant has 1 notable kill (a goblin) and 90 other kills led by 5 cave dragons.

Skills?  Proficient Marksdwarf, Skilled Shield/Armor/Dodge, Accomplished Tracker, Adequate Milker.

I figure he used to be a Legendary Murdermaster of some variety but that was his old life.  Here (in my terrifying biome with a cave and evil mist) he just wants to pursue his passion in early retirement.  Milking.  He's not great at it, but he just loves to milk.

That selfish bastard. He has all of those useful military skills and all that he is willing to do with his retirement is milk? The audacity!

Draft him back into the military. Service is eternal, the only way out is death, pray that it does not come from age.

A badass milk man? Not bad. Guess it was tougher in his day.

That should be a new type of project, making a rug design in dwarf fortress (With accurate coloring)
"And so, after many deaths and much sacrifice, someone turned their fortress into a fully functioning self aware carpet that actively sought after sources of fresh blood."

The dwarf was trying to milk the dragons. There was a disagreement.

Never had a bat massacre people with an axe before.
EDIT2: Oh god, the bat has got a title now.

It is safe to say that Inkedwatch will not provide him the level of comfort he expected in retirement.  One of his friends brought along a nice steel crossbow...

Most likely because they were male dragons.

Check those kills--animals, maybe? He could have been a hunter. I don't usually get dwarves with nearly a hundred kills and only one of them is notable.

A hunter of cave dragons?

Imagine the looks on everyone's face when he returns home after 2 years.

This so reminds me of RED.  The Marksdwarf, shield, dodge skills suggest soldier, but tracking?  Sounds like an assassin.

This is a side-effect of dwarven animal training (hit animal with hammer until it forgets that it hates you, then lovingly cuddle it).
