Weird straightened himself, and took a deep breath. Anger accomplished very little.

His tone become cool, serene, intellectual.

"I created Mr Peepers because in all likelihood, our fearless leader, eric, is about to get us all killed. You and he were bickering about only being experienced with lesser beings. So, I purposefully created something that could possibly tip the balance.  Was it a mistake? Maybe. What is it right now? Its a baby, who hasn't done anything wrong. When parents decide to have children, do they think about the consequences the way you are demanding? No. Parents train their children, so that they don't grow up to be evil sociopaths, as best they can. That's exactly what I intend for peepers. For better or for worse, I created him, and now he's my responsibility. Am I scared I will misuse my powers and end up like Thari, or worse? You better damned well believe it. Do I think its worth it to try to ask a similarly unraveled person for help? Absolutely not. As dangerous as I am now, just imagine me as eric's willing thrall. If that doesn't send ice down your spine, I don't know what will."

"And where did you pick up this dangerous magic, exactly?" Pressed zanz.

"When I killed her, there were people that wanted to die. I didn't really want to kill them. I looked for every option not to. I dug through her papers. That's why I had them burned." He lied. 

It was 99% true. He hoped that was enough to throw zanz off.

He put a hand on hugo's neck, and smiled weakly at him with a nod.

-Weird, noone will believe that child baloney. Your in dwarf fortress, EVERYTHING grows up to be sociopath murderer guy. ESPECIALLY chickens. God damn chickens, there #3 in my fortress killer list. Right before crundles and elves.-

[Gizogin]

Gizogin peered at the creature in wierd's box.  'Peepers,' he'd called it.  Not a very fitting name, Gizogin thought.  It was the sort of name one would give to a parakeet as a child, and seemed entirely at odds with the thing's grotesque appearance.  Still, Gizogin couldn't help but be impressed.  Whatever wierd had done to it, it was a biological marvel.  Gizogin said as much to wierd, and wierd looked visibly relieved.  With that, Gizogin remembered something else, something that had slipped to the back of his mind during his meal.

"Well, this has been an interesting diversion, but I think we should really get back to the safe area now.  There's a siege on, you know."

While true, the combined knowledge my char has, coupled with the abilities he has picked up, make him too dangerous to allow to live without a functional moral center.  He very clearly could logically determine that mass genocide is not only acceptible under certain circumstances, but is actually proscribed, then commence creating a suitable doomsday device, "just in case."

Something he would normally never consider doing, despite knowing how.

This is dwarf fortress 1.0 and an RP. Some things are much more realistic. [/meta]

-That explains why we havent had any river-related deaths.-

A migrant has arrived!
Prince Pwnly, Migrant, cancels No Job: Interrupted by Fluffy Wambler.
Prince Pwnly kicks the Fluffy Wambler but the shot is blocked!
The Migrant's first toe, left foot takes the full force of the impact, bruising the fat!
Prince Pwnly gives in to pain.

[Prince Pwnly]

Oops, double-post.

[Corai]

-Oooh, fresh meat. Someone better take a team of soldiers to rescue the poor sucker before the dragons rip him to pieces.-

Welcome to the thread! Make sure to read through the entire thing first. Don't worry, it won't take long and is very entertaining!

I am back. After kidnapping a few dwarves and strapping them to tables, Mrhappyface contemplated which one would be the smith, as all were legendary...
Then it came to him. Why have 7 different smiths in 7 bodies, when you could have 7 smiths in one body! It's perfect! A gestalt conciousness! (Think the C-Concioussness from STALKER)
Mrhappyface began connecting the brain synapse wires to a lethargic central dwarf. He was a dabbling potash maker, and was a willing voluntary. Soon he would become the greatest smith to have ever lived.

Where did you find them? Everyone is in the bunker.

-Volunteers? Afterall, dwarves worship the forumites. Most of them will do anything for us in a heartbeat.-

[Mrhappyface]

They were idle.

[wierd]

All nonessentiall personel (that aren't stupid) would have evacuated to the secure area.

Yes, this means my character is stupid.  I openly admit that.  He made mega ultra chicken. Doesn't get any dumber.
