Yeah, this is a titan coming from a good biome. As from the aura of giving and kindness... it is not yet implemented.

Or maybe it is a paladin, horrified by your evil ways and crusading against your fortress.

I think he shoots rainbows from his horn, do you think he shoots rainbows from his horn? ^________^

As others have pointed out, "kindness" in the context of DF could be taken to mean
1) granting your dorfs the kindness of ending their miserable lifes that consist mostly of endless toil to create more -pitchblende mug-s
or
2) ridding the world of your fortress, which by all accounts is a major force of evil and a blight on the landscape, if you're anything like the typical DF player.

:P

Certainly you could argue that DF is a lot like The Sims, only... you know... with more vomit and decapitation.
If you launch a wooden mine cart towards the ocean at a sufficient speed, you can have your entire dwarf sail away in an ark.

This titan sounds absolutely fabulous!

What exactly would this aura do if it were implemented?
Logged
I don't understand, though that is about right with anything DF related.
I just hope he dies the same death that all dwarfs deserve: liver disease.

Its not the equivalent of Santa Claus, because that would involve him throwing goblins at your Traps.... that, together with this picture, makes my brain do things it should not do....

This is what happens when the game creates a [BENIGN] titan. It's not clear exactly how Toady intends them to behave...

A quick look at a string dump suggests that such titans can have "it bears a look of unbelievable peace", "it emanates an aura of giving and kindness", "joy marks its every movement", or "it moves its will in accordance with the truth of things".

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

Do you reckon this Titan goes around giving pitchblende toys covered in spikes of horneblend and granite to children?
