Would gremlins be full blown citizens or pets like they usually are?

[OREOSOME]

I'd wish to be Humanoided.

Name:Alaric Nelthan
Profession: Soldier, Preferably Sword&Crossbow.

Full blown citizens. We're doing everything but the kitchen sink here.

[Sotsepmet Koicei]

Ohmygod. Moogles? <3

Name: Darupopo
Profession: Mechanic/Gemsetter/Gemcutter/Siege Operator in that order.
Gender: Male
Race: Moogle
Extra Info: Darupopo is terrified of insects of any kind, and adores jewels. He became lost after fleeing from a swarm of presumably ravening butterflies, and (eventually) stumbled across the fortress, where he took a liking for a (particularly tall) citizen. He is trying to woo that citizen with trinkets and shinies, and protect them with his engineering/trapmaking skills, a childhood hobby turned to war.

He thinks murlocs and fairies are adorable.

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Right, I'll start the fortress soon, I can't guarantee it too soon, my timetable isn't exactly free.

[Delioth]

Must get in on the minotaur goodness.

Name: Delioth IV
Profession: Greataxe user with a shield. (Their size is big enough to do it.)
Gender: Male
Race: Minotaur
Extra Info:Delioth IV is epic, and bisects people as much as possible. Also, throwing things around. He adores gemstones and rutile.

I'll probably shut down this thread and start in a new thread, before I do, any more suggestions for skills, races, etc?

[GreatWyrmGold]

Have you considered something like orcs?

[IamanElfCollaborator]

Considered, put on the maybe list, because they're essentially tall goblins
I'll put them in if enough people want them.

[Boozebeard]

Maybe plump helmet men? Either way, it's still a pretty solid list!

How about goblins are small and fast, and good at archery, but orcs are big, tough and occasionally go into a rage that makes them stronger but CRAZED?

[Archereon]

Wait, it's possible to mod in a multirace fortress?

[Eric Blank]

Yes, kinda. You can go the actual mod route and combine creature raws together, which is really fucking difficult but I've successfully done it 2-3 times now, or you can use DFhack's friendship and migrants commands.

I do have a hell of an inventory of new races and a mod that makes everything just a bit more terrifying, but I don't have any working version of those uploaded right now. Some of the time they can be scary-hard, though.

[DVNO]

Aaah, so it's clever caste modding, then?

[Eric Blank]

No, he said he's using the DFhack route. If you want to combine a list of species THAT long, you've got a deathwish, and a serious psychological problem. Just mixin' and bugfixin' 5 at a time is a 6-12 hour trek.

I did that for one of the mods I was implying. The brutemen, a combined force of semi-megabeasts, as well as trolls and ogres. Pretty goddamn terrifying, and I've almost got that mod in a working state again. I'm just lazy as fuck about updating for new versions anymore...
